Passage 1

The angry woman stood on the station platform (月台). “The railway should pay me ￡14,” she said to Tony Jenks, the man in the booking office. “My ticket was for June 26th, and there was no ship from Jersey that night. My daughter and I had to stay in a hotel. It cost me ￡14.” Tony was worried. He remembered selling the woman a return ticket. “Come into the office, madam,” he said politely. “I’ll just check the Jersey timetable for June 26th.” The woman and her little girl followed him inside. She was quite right, as Tony soon discovered. There was no ship sailing on June 26th. How had he made such a careless mistake? Not knowing what to do, he smiled at the child. “You look sunburned (晒黑旳),” he said to her. “Did you have a nice holiday in Jersey?” “Yes,” she answered shyly. “The beach was lovely. And I could swim too!” “That’s fine,” said Tony. “My little girl can’t swim a bit yet. Of course, she’s only three……” “I’m four,” the child said proudly. “I’ll soon be four and a half.” Tony turned to the mother. “I remember your ticket, madam,” he said. “But you didn’t get one for your daughter, did you?” “Er, well……” the woman looked at the child, “I mean — she hasn’t started school yet. She’s only four.” “A four-year-old child must have a ticket, madam. A child’s return ticket to Jersey costs — let me see —￡15.50. So if you want the railway to pay ￡14 for your hotel, you will have to pay the railway ￡15.50 first. The law is the law, but since the fault was mine……” The woman stood up, took the child’s hand and left the office.
