| Miss Kao : Taxi! Taxi! (A cab stops and she goes in.) Cab driver : Where to, miss? Miss Kao : Diamond Hotel on Beach Avenue. How much do you think the fare will be? Cab driver : Well, about three dollars. I can't tell exactly, but whatever it is, it will show on the meter. Miss Kao : I took a taxi yesterday from the station to Diamond Hotel, and the driver charged me six dollars. Cab driver : Was it rush hour? Miss Kao : No, it wasn't. Cab driver : Well, there is nothing I can say, miss. Miss Kao : Do you think he intentionally drove all around instead of driving directly to Diamond Hotel? Cab driver : No. Why would he want to do that? Miss Kao : For more money. He thought I was someone who can be taken advantage of. Cab driver : I wouldn't say that, miss. Any cab driver would lose his license if he got caught doing a thing like that. Miss Kao : I didn't know that. Cab driver : Now you know. Are you new in this city? Miss Kao : Yes. I'll probably stay here for two more weeks. Cab driver : In that case, you can try to call a cab company to send you a cab next time when you need one. That'll certainly make you feel safer.... Here you are, Diamond Hotel. Miss Kao : Thank you for the advice. How much is it? Cab driver : Two dollars and ninty-eight cents. Miss Kao : Here is three dollars. Keep the change. Vocabulary 注釋 1. cab n. 即“taxi'，計程車。 2. rush hour 指交通的高峰時間 |
