1Why did the writer not get off the bus at Woodford Green?
2I love travelling in the country,
3but I don't like losing my way.
4I went on an excursion recently,
5but my trip took me longer than I expected.
6'I'm going to Woodford Green,'
7I said to the conductor as I got on the bus,
8'but I don't know where it is.'
9'I'll tell you where to get off.'
10answered the conductor.
11I sat in the front of the bus to get a good view of the countryside.
12After some time, the bus stopped.
13Looking round,
14I realized with a shock that I was the only passenger left on the bus.
15'You'll have to get off here,'
16the conductor said.
17'This is as far as we go.'
18'Is this Woodford Green?' I asked.
19'Oh dear,' said the conductor suddenly.
20'I forgot to put you off.'
21'It doesn't matter,' I said.
22'I'll get off here.'
23'We're going back now,' said the conductor.
24'Well, in that case,
25I prefer to stay on the bus,' I answered.
