【Text】
I love travelling in the country, but I don't like losing my way.
I went on an excursion recently, but my trip took me longer than I expected.
'I'm going to Woodford Green,' I said to the conductor as I got on the bus, 'but I don't know where it is.'
'I'll tell you where to get off.' answered the conductor.
I sat in the front of the bus to get a good view of the countryside. After some time, the bus stopped. Looking round, I realized with a shock that I was the only passenger left on the bus.
'You'll have to get off here,' the conductor said. 'This is as far as we go.'
'Is this Woodford Green?' I asked.
'Oh dear,' said the conductor suddenly. 'I forgot to put you off.'
'It doesn't matter,' I said. 'I'll get off here.'
'We're going back now,' said the conductor.
'Well, in that case, I prefer to stay on the bus,' I answered.

“我来告诉您在哪儿下车, “售票员回答说.
我坐在汽车的前部, 以便饱览农村风光. 过了一些时候, 车停了. 我环视了一下身旁, 惊奇地发现车里就只剩我一个乘客了.
“您得在这里下车, “售票员说, “我们的车就到此为止了. “
“这里是伍德福德草地吗?” 我问道.
“哎呀, “售票员突然说, “我忘了让您下车了. “
“没关系, “我说, “我就在这儿下吧. “
“我们现在要返回去, “售票员说.
“好吧, 既然如此, 我还是留在车上吧. “我回答说.

7、Looking round, I realized with a shock that I was the only passenger left on the bus.
非谓语动词(现在分词或过去分词)做状语, 这个动作必然与主句主语有关：-ing与主句主语构成主动关系;-ed 与主句主语构成被动关系;to do与主句主语构成目的关系
passing plain 路过的飞机; ploughed field 耕过的地
如果-ing/-ed做宾补, 与宾语有关
I find the door locked. (locked被动，门被锁)

【letter writing】
给朋友写信要称呼他们的名字，如“亲爱的弗雷德”，决不要以“亲爱的朋友”类的词语开头。
给亲戚写信，则可以这样开头：亲爱的妈妈、亲爱的爸爸、亲爱的弗雷德叔叔、亲爱的艾丽丝姨妈，但决不可称“亲爱的表兄”，或“亲爱的弗雷德表兄”。
给长辈写信，长辈中的直系亲属不加名字，只加称谓;长辈中的旁系亲属既要加称谓，又要加名字。给平辈的亲属写信，直接称呼名字，不加称谓。
【Summry writing】
1 Where did the writer want to go? Did he know the way or not? What did the conductor promise to do? (but as)
“but as” 并不是并列短语, 两者连在一起仅仅是巧合
The writer wanted to go to Woodfast Green but as he did not know the way, the conductor promised to tell him where to get off.
第一句和第二句之间是 “but” 关系, 第二句和第三句之间为 “as” 关系, 所以产生 “but as”
