큰일 할 남자의 영어 듣기 [12] - Bus Trip


  • Woman : Excuse me. Is this seat taken?

  • Man : It is now. Take a seat.
  • Woman : Thanks. I had been waiting for over two hours for the bus to come.

  • Man : Yeah. The bus broken down[각주:1] about 50 miles back. Actually, the bus driver lost control of the bus when he split hot chocolate on himself, and then as he tried to regain [각주:2]control of the bus, he hit a rock and bus blew a tire.
  • Woman : Uh. Are you sure this bus in safe?

  • Man : I'm not sure if it's safe, but you can't beat [각주:3]the price of the trip.
  • Woman : So, where are you from?

  • Man : To tell the truth, I really don't know.
  • Woman : Uh, what do you mean?

  • Man : Well, you see, I was adopted when I was a baby. I was told that I was born in New York City, but I can't be sure about that. Then, my new parents raised me in a small town Texas. I'm sure you've never heard of it.
  • Woman : Oh.

  • Man : My parents, Fred and Norma, had a farm, so I grew up milking cows and herding[각주:4] sheep. Actually, I'm on my way to visit them now.
  • Woman : You mean back to Texas?

  • Man : Oh no. They sold that farm years ago when they discovered [각주:5]oil on their property. They live on a ranch right outside of Las Vegas. Beautiful place with a pool.
  • Woman : Las Vegas. Las Vegas? I thought this bus was heading to Chicago[각주:6]... in the opposite direction!

  • Man : Ah. You're on the wrong bus.
  • Woman : I got to get off.

  • Man : Hey, relax. Spend a weekend with me and my parents on the ranch[각주:7]. I can teach you how to milk a cow or something.
  • Woman : I have to get off.

  • Man : Relax. Anyway, once this bus left the station, it ain't gonna stop until the next stop. Three hours rom now. The driver got really upset when the last passenger made a similar mistake. Hey, sit and relax. Let me tell you about farm. I have plenty of stories.
