Once there was an old man in a town.He always forgot a lot of things.So his wife always had to say to him, “Don't forget this! ”
One day he went on a long trip alone.Before he left home, his wife said, “Now you have all these things.They are what you need for your trip.Take care of your things during the trip.” He went to the station, bought a ticket and got on the train with it.
About half an hour later, the conductor began to see the tickets.He came to the old man and said, “Will you please show me your ticket? ” The old man looked for his ticket in all his pockets, but he could not find it.He was very worried.“I can't find my ticket.I really bought a ticket before I got on the train.”said the old man.
“I believe you bought a ticket.All right, you don't have to buy another one, ” said the conductor kindly.“But how can I know where I'm going? – I can't remember my station! ”the old man said sadly.

Last Thursday,I traveled on the 8:00 a.m.train from Glasgow to London
King’s Cross and I was quite angry with the service of your company.
The train didn’t come on time and it was forty minutes late when it left Glasgow.
A man at the station said sorry to us,but he didn’t give us any reasons for the delay(误点).We then had further delays on the way and had to wait another thirty minutes.As a result,I missed my plane from London to Frankfurt and had to wait for several hours.
What’s more,the service on the train was also very poor.The trip took more than five hours.Unluckily,we could buy nothing but some soft drinks on the train.Worst of all,something was wrong with the air conditioning(空调系统) and it got hotter and hotter in the train.Before we reached King’s Cross,the temperature was over 40℃.
Because of your poor service,I feel you should pay me compensation(赔偿).
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully,
David Robertson
