A
Most Unlucky Day
I had a streak of tough luck yesterday. Everything
,
it seemed to me
,
went wrong. And I simply couldn
’
t understand
why all the bad things happened to me
in one single day.
In the morning
,
as luck would have it
,
my alarm clock didn
’
t ring
,
and with
an aching head
I woke up half an hour later than usual. I was in such a hurry that
,
when making
an omelet
,
I got my fingers burnt and splashed the omelet all over the
floor of the kitchen.
Having no time for my breakfast at that point
,
I rushed out of my house with an empty stomach and hurting fingers.
I
had intended to catch the 7:30
subway
,
but somehow I couldn
’
t make it. I became
very nervous at the mere thought of
being late for my English class
,
because my English teacher is very strict and demanding
,
and he gets angry whenever any student is late for his class.
After getting off the 7:40 subway
,
I raced all the way from the station to my school
,
thinking
it would be impossible for me to flag a taxi at
this hour of the day.
At the
corner of the street near my school
,
I abruptly bumped into a man and
,
worse luck
,
broke the
glasses I had bought for 500 yuan just last week.
With scarcely any time to
receive or offer an apology
,
I just kept on running and running. At
long last
,
I arrived at the school only to find
,
with great sadness mixed with some relief
,
that the
school was empty and the classrooms were all
locked. It was Saturday.
My ill luck showed no sign of coming to an end.
When I
returned home greatly frustrated
,
I found myself locked out. In
my hurry
I had forgotten to
bring the key with me. Just my luck!
Go on a Mediterranean
Journey
My wife and I have always enjoyed traveling by sea
,
and last year we
decided to go on a Mediterranean journey.
Although
our
holiday
was
rather
expensive
we
thought
that
the
high
standard
of
accommodation
,
the first-class food and the
many interesting places we saw were well worth the
price
we paid.
We found that most of the other passengers were friendly and interesting
,
but there was one man
,
a Mr. James
