Lesson 50 文本  Taken for a ride 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 are going back now,' said the conductor. 'Well, in that case, I prefer to stay on the bus,' I answered. 文本解析 一）词汇学习Word study 1. lose, loose与miss（1）lose通常为及物动词，可以表示“失去”、“丧失”、“遗失”、“丢失”等含义：Roy has lost his job again.罗伊又失业了。Try not to lose your ticket.别丢了你的票。A large sum of money has been lost.有一大笔钱丢失了。She lost her parents when she was sixteen.她16岁时便失去了双亲。 （2）loose虽然词形与lose比较相似，意义与用法却有很大区别。它主要作形容词，表示“松的”、“松动的”、“松开的”：The handle of this suitcase is very/ has come loose.这个手提箱的把手非常松／松了。 （3）miss通常作及物动词，可以表示“错过”、“未能……”、“缺（课等）”、“惦念”、“想念”等多种含义：Hurry or you'll miss the train.动作快点，否则你要赶不上火车了。I missed my English lesson.我英语课缺课了。The Turners left the district last year and we really miss them.特纳一家去年离开了这个地区，我们真的很想念他们。 2. expect与wait for（1）expect可以表示“预计……可能发生（或来到）”、“等待”、“期盼”等。它表示等待时往往侧重人的心理而不是具体在某个地方等：I expect/ I'm expecting to hear from you.我等着你的来信。I'm expecting the bus to arrive in the next ten minutes.我想10分钟之内公共汽车就会到。 （2）wait for主要指“等待”这个动作本身：I'm waiting for the next bus.我在等下一班公共汽车。I'll wait for you outside the post office.我将在邮局外面等你。 二）课文详注 Further notes on the text 1.
