[speaker001:] so, how should we go to the theatre?
[speaker002:] let's take the bus.
[speaker001:] I hate the bus system in London! The bus drivers are rude, the buses are never on time, and there are few people around who can help you.
[speaker002:] it's not that bad. You probably just had a bad experience once.
[speaker001:] it wasn't just once. Every single time I take the bus, something bad happens to me or to someone else on the bus.
[speaker002:] we could take the subway, but we'd have to go three stops along one line and then change trains twice.
[speaker001:] train fares are twice as expensive as the bus fare, too.
[speaker002:] if we don't hurry up, we'll miss the show. Should we take the bus?
[speaker001:] we're already late, so I think we had better take a taxi.
[speaker002:] I don't think we'll be able to find a taxi very easily during hush hours. Let's just take the bus.
[speaker001:] fine. Have a look at the timetable to find out when the next one arrives.
[speaker002:] it looks like it should be here in just a few minutes.
[speaker001:] don't worry. Nothing bad will happen. I'll even buy your ticket for you.
[speaker002:] thanks, that was nice of you.
[speaker001:] see, now something good has happened to you on a bus trip!
