W:(19)Sorry, I’m late. The train was delayed. I got stuck on the platform for about 20 minutes.
M: Yeah, it happens from time to time. How are you finding the commuting anyway?
W: Well, it’s a shock to the system to be honest. Last night I was coming home from the office, and I got caught in the mad jam. It was unbelievable that everyone seemed jammed in a can.
M: Yeah, and then just when you think there is no way anyone else could fit on, five more people burst in!
W:(20)I’ve got to hand it to the train companies though. Whoever devised the schedules is a genius. It’s amazing how different trains arrive at the same time for people to change.
M: I know. Back home, 20 minutes late for a train is pretty standard!
W: So what do you do to take your mind off things on the train? I sometimes try to read a book, but I can’t turn the page, not enough space!
M:(21)I usually listen to music, and it helps block out everything. But if I’m really tired, I tend to just nod off for a few minutes.
W: Isn’t that a bit risky? You don’t want to miss your stop.
M: You watch the businessmen do it. They have it down to an art form. They will wake up just before their stop.
W: I’m afraid if I close my eyes, I won’t be waking up so quickly!
