The village was a long way from town. It was twelve of thirteen hundred kilometers.
“You must go to the city,” I said to Atalipa. “Only a doctor can help you, and I am not a doctor. I'll go with you.”
“Go along the river,” he said, “Then climb over the great mountains.”
“Yes. That's the only way.”
“That's quite a long way and my people have never been to places so far!”
Atalipa did not enjoy the city very much. But we stayed for two months, and he got better. Then we went back to the great mountains, and went down the river in Atalipa's boat.
I asked him, “What are you going to tell your people? Will you talk about the city men? What will you talk about the big buildings and the cars?”
He thought for a minute. Then he said , “No , I won't tell them. They won't understand , and maybe they'll cry.”
“What do you mean? Why will they cry?” I asked.

It was a cold wet night. The taxi driver hadn't had one passenger(乘客)all day. When he went by the railway station, he saw a young man from the country coming out, carrying two big bags. “Aha! ”thought the taxi driver, “here's the right person to make good this bad day. ”He quickly stopped the taxi and opened the door.
Driver: Where do you want to go, sir?
Young Man: To the Park Hotel.
When the taxi driver heard that, his hopes of getting a lot of money disappeared. The Park Hotel was hardly two kilometers away. The young man would give him fifty cents at most. Only fifty cents ! Then he had an idea of taking the young man by a longer route----going all around the city and then back to the Park Hotel. This he did, and after a long time the taxi finally arrived at the hotel.
Driver: You should pay me fifteen dollars ,sir.
Young Man: What? Fifteen dollars? Do you think I'm a fool? You're trying to cheat(騙)me.
Driver: How dare you say I…

Driver: Oh…oh…all right. Now…now look…uh…

Driver: Oh, no! Please don't do that! I have a sick wife and four hungry children.
Young Man: All right! This time I'll forget it.
Driver: Oh, thank you ,sir. And you are right. The trip isn't worth fifteen dollars.
Young Man : You don't have to tell me that. I may come from the country, but I'm as clever as you city people.
Driver : Yes, sir.
Young Man : I just won't be cheated. I won't pay you a cent more than I paid the other taxi last week…thirteen dollars !

"Yes ,Mum ．"Linda puts in．． "I just wanted to ring to ……．"
"I remember how you rang when you went to Betty‘s house to eat , when you were a little girl．And then when you …" Mrs Lee is a great talker

“Four pounds fifty,”says David．
