Daniel: Dad, hurry! The train is coming. Aha, I am a superman.

Dad: Don’t rush; behave yourself please! Let the people get off first.

Daniel: Oh, we should. There are so many people. What if the train got full before we could get in?

Dad: But, if we all pushed our way in, nobody could get off, and nobody could get in either.

Broadcast: The next station is Dongdan.

Daniel: How many stops are there to the Xidan station?

Dad: There are four more stops.

Daniel: Oh, my God!

Dad: What’s wrong? You are like a little monkey, on pins and needles!

Daniel: Because I need to use the restroom. Is there a restroom on the train?

Dad: No, not on the train, but in the station.

Daniel: Why not? You told me that subway is a kind of train. If it had no restroom. what kind of train would that be?

Dad: Well, that is a question. You want to offer a suggestion?

Daniel: Oh, yeah, but not today. I am busy with praying the subway may get there as fast as possible.

Dad: I guess you’ll never forget today.

丹尼爾：爸爸，快啊，地鐵來了。啊哈，我是超人。

爸爸：不要跑，規矩點!先下后上。

丹尼爾：噢，要這樣啊。這么多人，要是我們進去之前就擠滿了人怎么辦?

爸爸：但是，如果我們都擠著進，就沒人能下地鐵，也沒人能進去了。

廣播：下一站東單。

丹尼爾：到西單站還有幾站?

爸爸：還有四站呢。

丹尼爾：噢，我的天吶。

爸爸：怎么啦?你就像個小猴子，如坐針氈啊!

丹尼爾：因為我要上廁所。地鐵上有廁所嗎?

爸爸：地鐵上沒有，不過地鐵站里有。

丹尼爾：為什么沒有啊?你告訴過我地鐵是一種火車啊。如果沒有廁所，那還叫火車嗎?

爸爸：的確，是個問題。你想建議一下嗎?

丹尼爾：噢，我要建議一下，但不是今天。我忙著祈禱地鐵盡快到站呢!

爸爸：我想你不會忘記今天的。
