Makayla: so, how should we go to the theatre 1?


Gabriel: let's take the bus.


M: I hate 2 the bus system 3 in London! The bus drivers are rude 4, the buses are never on time, and there are few 5 people around who can help you.


G: it's not that bad. You probably 6 just had 7 a bad experience 8 once.


M: it wasn't just once. Every single 11 time I take the bus, something bad happens to me or to someone 12 else on the bus.


G: we could 13 take the subway 14, but we'd have to go three stops along 15 one line and then change trains twice 16.


M: train fares 18 are twice as 10 expensive as the bus fare 17, too.


G: if we don't hurry up, we'll miss the show. Should we take the bus?


M: we're already 19 late, so I think we had better take a taxi.


G: I don't think we'll be able 20 to find a taxi very easily 21 during 22 hush 23 hours. Let's just take the bus.


M: fine. Have a look at the timetable to find out when the next one arrives.


G: it looks like it should be here in just a few minutes.


M: don't worry. Nothing bad will happen. I'll even 24 buy your ticket for you.


G: thanks, that was 9 nice of you.


M: see, now something good has happened to you on a bus trip!

哎,咱们怎么去剧院?


坐公共汽车吧.


我讨厌伦敦的公共交通体系.公共汽车司机总是很粗鲁无礼,汽车从来都不按时到达,周围也没什么人能帮忙.


没那么糟糕吧.大概你你以前有过一次很糟糕的经历.


可不止一次.每次我坐公共汽车,总会遇到点什么情况,不是我就是车上的其他人.


那咱们可以去坐地铁,但是得沿着一条线坐三站地,然后还得换2次车.


地铁票价可是公共汽车的2倍呢.


如果咱们再不抓紧时间,可要误了这场演出了.坐公共汽车怎么样?


咱们已经晚了,我想最好还是打车吧.


我觉得在交通高峰期叫出租车不是那么容易的事情.还是坐公交车去吧.


好吧.查查时间表,看看下一班车几点到.


别担心,不会出什么状况的.我还可以替你买票.


谢谢,你真好.


看见了吧,这次你坐公交车好事已经出现了!
