Question

Mr. White came out of the airport. He asked every taxi-driver’s name. Then he took the fifth taxi. It cost $5 from the airport to the hotel.

“How much does it cost for the whole(整个的) day?” he asked.

“$100,” said the taxi-driver. This was very expensive but Mr. White agreed.

The taxi-driver took Mr. White everywhere. He showed him all the museums. In the evening they went back to the hotel, Mr. White gave the driver $100 and said, “What about tomorrow?”

“Tomorrow? It’s another $100 tomorrow.”

“OK,” said Mr. White, “if that’s the price, see you tomorrow.” The driver was very pleased.

The next day they traveled to several places. And in the second evening they went to the hotel again, Mr. White gave the driver $100 and said, “I’m going home tomorrow.” The driver was very sorry. He liked Mr. White and above all, $100 a day is good money. So he asked Mr. White, “Where do you come from?”

“Of course I know her. She gave me $200 for you.”
