Janie, the driver, tries to the uncomfortable atmosphere(气氛,氛围) by striking the match of talks. I try to listen , but usually I am too thinking about my day. On this day, however, her talk was worth .
“My father’s ill ,” she said to no one in particular(特别地). I could see worry in her . I had never seen her like this before. She always meets students a smile.
With a sudden change of interest, I asked, “ What’s wrong with him?”
With her eyes wet and her voice , she answered, “Heart trouble.” Her eyes lowered as she continued. “I’ve already my mum, so I don’t think I can stand losing him.” I couldn’t answer. My heart ached for her.
I sat on the thinking of the great pain my own mother was thrown into when her father died. I saw how hard it was, and still is, for her. I wouldn’t want anyone to go through that. Suddenly I realized Janie wasn’t only a bus , that was just her job. She had a whole world of family and cares .
I suddenly very selfish. I paid no attention to Janie because she was a bus driver. I had judged her by her job and brushed her off as unimportant.
I shouldn’t have been so selfish and self-centered. people is an art.

Have you ever suddenly felt that someone you know was in trouble-and he was? Have you ever dreamed something that came true later? Maybe you have ESP(超感官知能).
ESP stands for Extra Sensory Perception. It may be called a sixth sense. It seems to let people know about events before they happen, or events that are happening some distance away.
Here is an example：A woman was doing washing. Suddenly she screamed, “My father is dead! I saw him sitting in the chair!” Just then, a telegram came. The woman' s father had died of a heart attack. He died sitting in a chair.
There are thousands of stories like this on record. Scientists are studying them to find out what is behind these strange mental messages. Here's another example-one of hundreds of dreams that have come true.
A man dreamed he was walking along a road when a horse and carriage came by. The driver said, “There's room for one more.” The man felt the driver was Deather, so he ran away. The next day the man was getting on a crowded bus. This driver said, “There's room for one more.” Then the man saw the driver's face was the same face he had seen in the dream. He wouldn't get on the bus. As the bus drove off, it crashed and burst into flames. Everyone was killed!
Some people say stories like these are lies or coincidences. Others, including some scientists say that ESP is true. Form studies of ESP, we may some day learn more about the human mind.
