坐错了车
The wrong bus
Name: ________________ Date: ________
孙海峰每天早上七点坐公交车上班。七点上车，八点到公司，十年都一样。
今天他太累了，一上车就睡了。
司机叫他：“先生，先生！到了！”
孙海峰下了车，看了看：没有公司，没有楼。水，很多很多的水。
“这是哪儿？”
“海边。你坐错了车！”
孙海峰打电话说：“对不起，我坐错了车，今天不去上班了。”
他在海边坐了一上午。天很蓝，风很大。他十年没看海了。
晚上回家，他对儿子说：“爸爸今天坐错了车。”
“你去哪儿了？”
“海边。”
儿子大叫：“爸爸，星期六我们也坐错一次车吧！”

English (for the teacher)
Every morning at seven, Sun Haifeng takes the bus to work. On the bus at seven, at the office at eight, the same for ten years.
Today he is so tired that he falls asleep as soon as he gets on.
The driver calls him: “Sir, sir! We’re here!”
Sun Haifeng gets off and looks around: no office, no buildings. Water, lots and lots of water.
“Where is this?”
“The seaside. You took the wrong bus!”
Sun Haifeng phones in: “Sorry, I took the wrong bus, so I’m not coming in today.”
He sits by the sea all morning. The sky is blue and the wind is strong. He hasn’t seen the sea in ten years.
That evening at home, he tells his son: “Daddy took the wrong bus today.”
“Where did you go?”
“The seaside.”
His son shouts: “Daddy, on Saturday let’s take the wrong bus too!”
