  It was a cold wet night. The taxi driver hadn't had any passenger all day. When he went by the bus 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.

  The taxi driver felt very sorry when he heard that. The Park Hotel was hardly two kilometers away. The young man would give him fifty cents(美分) at most. Only fifty cents! Then he had an idea of taking the young man by a longer way-going all around the city and then back to the Park Hotel. This he did, and after a long time the taxi arrived at the hotel at last.

  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(欺骗)me.

  Driver:How can you say I…

  Young Man:You must think I don't know my way around.

  Driver:But…

  Young Man:Only last week I took a taxi from the station to this hotel, I know how much I should pay.

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

  Young Man:I think I should call the policeman.

  Driver:Oh, no! Please don't do that! I have four hungry children and my wife is ill in bed.

  Young Man:All right! This time I'll forget it.

  Driver:Oh, thank you, sir. And you are right. You needn't pay that much.

  Young Man:You don't have to tell me that. I come from the country, but I'm as clever as you city people.

  Driver:Yes, sir.

  Young Man:I just won't he cheated. I won't pay you a cent more than I paid the other taxi last week…thirteen dollars!

  Tom enjoyed going to the movies. He especially liked seeing movies made from stories he had read in the books. He went at least once a week. He liked to sit in the same seat, but sometimes when the theater was full, this was not possible. He had to sit wherever there was an empty seat.

  One evening, he found himself sitting behind a man who had his arm around a large dog on the seat beside him. This was strange, but even stranger was the dog's behaviour(举止,行为). It seemed to be watching the movie with interest, but from time to time it would turn to the man and bark quietly in his ear. The man would just nod, and the dog would turn back to watch the movie. Sometimes when something funny happened in the movie, the dog barked quite loudly and wagged(摆动)its tail.

  Tom sat behind the man and his dog for a long time without saying anything. He thought it would be rude to speak to them while the movie was still on. But when it came to the end and the lights in the theater went on, Tom decided to say something.

  He tapped the man on the shoulder. The man turned around.“Yes?”he said.What is it?”“Please don't think me rude,Tom said,but isn't your dog's behaviour rather stranger?”“You're right,the man agreed.It's strange. He hated the film.
