原版英语对话1000个:473 Bus Ride

Todd: Hey, Akane, the other day we were coming home on the bus and I got¹ off² the bus and I thought³ you were on the same bus as⁴ us, but when I started walking home, you weren't around. What happened?

Akane: Well, it's kind of a funny story actually⁵. I fell⁶ asleep⁷ on the bus and I was⁸ so tired that afternoon. It was a Friday afternoon and I'd had⁹ a long week and just fell deep¹⁰ into sleep and I really didn't notice¹² when we were at the end of the bus ride and we were at the station, and then I was really upset¹³ because the bus driver didn't say anything and so I just kept sleeping and by the time I woke¹⁴ up and noticed¹⁵ we were on our way back to the school again. Yes, and I didn't get a chance¹⁶ to press¹⁷ the button¹⁸ and get off until¹⁹ I was almost²⁰ halfway²¹ to the school, so I ended up getting home really late and even²² more tired and it wasn't a very good experience²³ at all.

Todd: Did¹¹ you say anything to the bus driver when you got off?

Akane: No, I didn't because I was so flustered²⁴ and I was in a rush²⁵ to get off that I didn't really get to say anything.

Todd: Oh, that must have been so annoying²⁶.

Akane: It was.

Todd: So what time did you actually make it home?

Akane: I think it was around 7:30, maybe.

Todd: Well, the next time we come home, I'll look for you and I'll make sure to wake²⁷ you up.

Akane: For sure, and make sure to look in the back seat²⁸ and make sure I'm not lying²⁹ down horizontally³⁰ because I think that's maybe how the bus driver missed out on the fact³¹ I was there.
