分析 Todd 相当期待他的第一次旅行.地铁是伦敦对地下铁路的一种称呼.他从他那些曾经去过英国的朋友那里得知许多关于地铁的事情,他们都建议Todd 第一次不要自己单独乘坐地铁旅行.但是Todd 是一个从来不听取任何人建议的人.不出乎意料,乘地铁的第一次旅行不是很成功.Todd 在下午五点多进入地铁站,在伦敦这个时间无论是对坐汽车还是坐火车的都是一个糟糕的时间,因为许多人都是这个时间下班回家,他不得不站到等着买票的长长的队伍里.当好不容易轮到他买票的时候,他却遇到了一些困难,因为他无法让售票员明白他要买去哪里的票.站在他后面的人开始不耐心的抱怨起来.但是最后他还是买到了正确的车票,通过问许多人,也找到了正确的站台.这里挤满了人,他没能坐上第一趟车,他站到了站台的边缘,这样他就有一个好点的位置上下一趟车.当车来了的时候,Todd 被后面涌来的人挤进了车里,在他还没能喘口气的时候车门就关上,启动了.他看不到停站时的站台名,但是他通过数车站数来确定从哪一站下车.他下车的车站是这条线路上的第六站.当车到达第六站的时候,他下车了,认为这次的旅行很容易.可是令他惊讶的是他到了一个他从没听说过的站.他不知道该怎么办才好.他对一个站在站台上的人讲述他遇到的困难,那个人 满脸疑惑的看着Todd 并告诉他,他乘错了车.
