In May 2001, I found a job in New York at the World Trade Center. On September 11, 2001, I arrived at my building at around 8:30 a.m. I was about to go up when I decided to get a coffee first. I went to my favorite coffee place even though it was two blocks east from my office. As I was waiting in line with other officer workers, I heard a loud sound. Before I could join the others outside to see what was going on, the first plane had already hit my office building. We stared in disbelief at the black smoke rising above the burning building. I felt lucky to be alive.

Many people like to travel by plane, but I don’t like it because the airport(机场) is usually far from the city. You have to get there early and wait for hours for the plane to take off which is often late. You can’t open the windows. You can’t choose the food. Planes are fast, but it still takes hours to get out of the airport and into the city.

I like travelling by train. I think trains are safe. Railway stations are usually good in cities. When you are late for a train, you can catch another one. You can walk around in the train and open the windows. You can see many interesting things on your way, though it takes a little more time.

I also like cars. You can start your journey whenever you want to, and you don’t need to get to a railway station or a bus stop. Also you can carry many things with you in a car. But sometimes there are too many cars on the road.

The other day, I told Connie that I'd rather take the bus to work than ride in my comfortable limousine, because of the high cost of gasoline. But today, I discovered how wrong I was.

When I got into my limousine this morning, my driver told me that the motor didn’t sound like it was running well.

“Look,” I said, “I have an important meeting at 9:00. I have to be on time!”

We drove about three blocks—then the motor died.

“Sorry, Mr. Foster. I thought this might happen. But look! There’s the downtown bus. Maybe you should take it. So you don’t miss your meeting.”

“Well, I…I…Oh! I suppose I have to.”

I got on the bus and gave the driver my money.

“Mister, are you serious? We can’t make change for a $100 bill!”

“I AM CHARLES K. FOSTER. AND I ORDER THAT YOU SHOULD MAKE CHANGE!”

“Mister,” said the driver, “I don’t care who you are. You will have to get off the bus.”

Well. I was so mad when I got off that bus that I didn’t watch where I was going, and I was almost hit by a car! So now, all I have to say is this: My business may be killing me, but riding the bus certainly will.
