When Bus Drivers Strike

When Bus Drivers Strike In the middle of December, the bus drivers went on strike. All over the city, the buses stopped running! Many people took buses to work, school and stores. How would they get around without buses? One woman decided to walk. Every day, she walked three hours to the store where she worked as a cashier. She did not want to lose her job. She did not want to leave customers without service.

当公交司机罢工 十二月中旬，公共汽车司机举行了罢工。整个城市的公共汽车都停了! 许多人乘公共汽车上班、上学和去商店。没有公共汽车，他们怎么出行? 一位女士决定步行。每天，她步行三个小时到她担任收银员的商店。她不想丢掉工作。她不想让顾客得不到服务。

After three days, a journalist at a local news- paper wrote an article about the woman. Many people called the newspaper to offer the woman a ride. She ended up accepting a ride from one of these people. Finally, she could stop walking long hours in the cold. The woman told the newspaper, " I'm so thankful to all the people in our community. They helped me through this difficult situation. ” This example just goes to show what can happen when people pull together in a time of need.

三天后，当地一家报社的记者报纸上写了一篇关于这个女人的文章。许多人打电话给报社，邀请这位女士搭车。 最后她搭了其中一个人的车。终于，她可以不用在寒冷中长时间行走了。 这名女子告诉该报，“我非常感谢我们社区的所有人。他们帮我度过了难关。” 这个例子正好表明，当人们在需要的时候团结起来会发生什么。
