Every couple of minutes a billboard glides by outside the bus window. “BuySuper Clean Toothpaste.” “Drink Good’n Wet Root Beer.” “Fill up with PacificGas.” Only if you sleep, which is equal to turning the television set off, areyou spared the unending cry of “You Need It! Buy It Now!”The beginning of the ride is comfortable and somewhatexciting, even if you’ve traveled that way before. Usually some things havechanged-new houses, new buildings, sometimes even a new road. The bus driverhas a style of driving and it’s fun to try to figure it out the first hour orso. (78)If the driver isparticularly reckless or daring, the ride can be as thrilling as a suspensestory. Will the driver pass the truck in time? Will thedriver move into the right or the left-hand lane? After a while, of course, theexcitement dies down. Sleeping for a while helps pass the middle hours of theride. Food always makes bus rides more interesting. But you’ve got to becareful of what kind of food you eat. Too much salty food can make you verythirsty between stops.The end of the ride is somewhat like the beginning.You know it will soon be over and there’s a kind of expectation and excitementin that. The seat, of course, has become harder as the hours have passed. (79)By now you’ve sat with you legscrossed, with your hands crossed behind your head. The end comesjust at the right time. There are just no more ways to sit.6. According tothe passage, what do the passengers usually see when they are on a long bustrip?A. Buses on the road. B. Films on television.C.

Clothes can be bought ready made, washingcan go to the laundry, food can be bought cooked, canned or preserved, bread isbaked and delivered by the baker, milk arrives on the doorstep, meals can behad at the restaurant, the works' canteen, and the school diningroom.It isunusual now for father to continue his trade or other employment at home, andhis children rarely, if ever, see him at his place of work. Boys are thereforeseldom trained to follow their father's occupation, and in many towns they havea fairly wide choice of employment and so do girls.（80） The young wage, earner often earns good money, and soon acquires afeeling of economic independence.
