Long bus rides are like television shows. They have a beginning，a middle，and an end—with commercials thrown in every three or four minutes. The commercials are unavoidable. They happen whether you want them or not. Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus win dow. “Buy Super Clean Toothpaste. ”“Drink Root Beer. ” “Fill up with Pacific Gas. ” Only if you sleep, which is equal to turning the television set off, are you spared the unending cry of “You Need It! Buy It Now !，’The beginning of the ride is comfortable and somewhat exciting, even if you've traveled that way before. Usually some things have changed—new houses, new buildings, sometimes even a new road. (76) The bus driver has a style of driving and it ’ s fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so. If the driver is particularly reckless or daring, the ride can be as thrilling as a suspense story. Will the driver pass the truck in time？ Will the driver move into the right or the left-hand lane？ Af ter a while, of course, the excitement dies down. Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride. Food always makes bus rides more interesting. But you ’ ve got to be careful of what kind of food you eat. Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops.
The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning. You know it will soon be over and there ’ s a kind of expectation and excitement in that. The seat, of course, has become harder as the hours have passed. (77) By now you ’ ve sat with your legs crossed，with your hands in your lap，with your hands on the armrests—even with your hands crossed behind your head. The end comes just at the right time. There are just no more ways to sit.

A.Buses on the road.

C.Advertisements on the board.
D.Gas stations.

JOHN: Have you had a chance to look over the contract？
LORRIE: Yes．I've read it carefully.
JOHN: And do you have any questions？
LORRIE: No．But the contract stipulates that I will teach 22 hours a week．Will you have that many classes for me right away？
JOHN: No, probably not．For the first two weeks you may teach 10 or 15 hours.
LORRIE : But my salary will be 1 100 dollars a month．Will you pay me that much for the first month？ Because, I mean, I won't be working so many hours.
JOHN: I understand．That's why I didn't write the date on the contract．For the first two weeks, we will pay you according to the hours you teach．When you have 22 hours of classes, then the contract will take effect．Is that alright with you？
LORRIE: Oh, so I don't sign the contract today．Is that right？
JOHN: I don't want you to misunderstand, Miss Briggs．We are very serious about hiring you．We want you to teach for us．We usually do contracts this way because it is more convenient.
LORRIE: I can accept that.
JOHN: Good．And your benefits will begin immediately.
LORRIE: Even my health insurance？
JOHN: Yes．We will apply for your health insurance tomorrow．And your free membership in the club starts today if you like.
LORRIE: I have a few questions about the free membership.
JOHN: What would you like to know？
LORRIE : Is my membership the same as paying club members？ I mean, can I get discounts at club hotels？
JOHN: Absolutely．The only difference is in the restaurant and bar vouchers.
LORRIE: What are bar vouchers？
JOHN: Paying club members get around 300 dollars a year in restaurant vouchers．The vouchers can be used in the restaurant or the lounge．But we don't offer vouchers to employees.
LORRIE: But according to the contract, employees get a discount in the restaurant.
JOHN: That's fight．So in a way, it is cheaper for you than for the members．You get more benefits than they do.
LORRIE: So, for now, you want me to keep a copy of the contract．But we won't sign it yet．Is that right？
JOHN: Yes．I've prepared the contract just so that you understand everything, so that you understand the terms.
LORRIE: I understand．And according to the terms on the contract, I am happy to accept this job．I look forward to it.
JOHN: I'm very pleased．We look forward to having you here, Miss Briggs.

"Mummy ! Mummy ! I saw some really big tadpoles (蝌蚪) in the pond (池塘). You've promised to catch some for us. "Phillip says, following me towards the kitchen. "Some of them have already got legs!" "Yes! We can catch them and watch them turn into frogs!" Geoffrey says suddenly. "Can we go？ Right now？"The telephone has been ringing. I try to get the receiver, but it is too late. It has been cut off.
"Give me a minute to catch my breath. 'I beg. "Put the groceries away. Get some jars out. I'll go change."
We go to the wide pond which lies smooth and still, its surface dotted with pink (粉红色 ) and white lilies (睡莲). Phillip and Geoffrey, laughing and shouting, run to the water's edge. I feel the peace of the place broken by the children. I hope there are no tadpoles so we can leave quickly. There's dinner to cook.
It is quite some time before we have taken the first tadpole to the bank. "The children are wild with joy. Back in the pond we go, and we try hard to catch five more fat ones. We all agree that's enough. The sun has gone down. A frog goes to the opposite shore. It's well past dinner time, bath time and bedtime when we really leave. But none of us thinks of those things.
