(76)The bus driver has a style of driving and it s fun to try to figure it out the first hour or so. If the driver is part

18、icularly reckless or daring, the ride can be as thrilling as a suspense story. Will the driver pass the truck in time? Will the driver move into the right or the left-hand lane? After a while, of course, the excitement dies down. Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of the ride. Food alw

19、ays makes bus rides more interesting. But: youve got to be careful of what kind of food you eat. Too much salty food can make you very thirsty between stops. The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning. You know it will soon be over and theres a kind of expectation and excitement in that. The

20、 seat, of course, has become harder as the hours have passed. (77) By now youve sat with your legs crossed, with your hands in your lap, with your hands on the armrests-even with your hands crossed behind your head. The end comes just at the fight time.

There were no vegetables or fruit, so the p

27、eople on board often fell ill. The sailors, however, were a bit better off than the passengers. They each had a bottle of beer a day, and they needed. The work they had to do was hard and dangerous. (79) Courage was needed, for the heavy sails had to be set and taken down in all kinds of weather, an

28、d quite often sailors were swept overboard in a gale. Almost the worst thing about the voyages was the time they took up to 70 days for the journey across the Atlantic.

34、like the Washington Post or the New York Times have a powerful influence all over the country.
