Sally was a student. It was going to be her mother’s birthday. She wanted to buy her a gift that would be nice and useful but not expensive.

A week before her mother’s birthday, she went shopping after a quick and simple lunch. When she had been looking for half an hour, she found a shop that was selling cheap umbrellas, and decided to take a black one, since her mother had lost hers the month before.

She thought, “You could carry that when you are wearing clothes of any color.” So she decided to buy a lovely black umbrella and took it back to school with her until her classes had finished.

On her way back home in the train that evening, she felt hungry because she had such a small lunch that she went along to the buffet car(餐車) for another sandwich and cup of coffee. She had left the black umbrella above her seat in the compartment(車廂), but when she got back, it had gone! When she had left the compartment, there had been no other passengers in it, but now there were three.

Sally began to cry when she saw that the umbrella was no longer there. The other passengers felt very sorry for her and asked what the matter was. She told them that the black umbrella she had bought for her mother was gone, and that she had to get out at the next station. After the three other passengers heard it, they asked her for her mother’s address so that they could sent the umbrella to her if someone had taken it by mistake and brought it back after Sally had got out of the train.

The next week, Sally heard from her mother. It said, “Thank you very much for your lovely gifts, but why did you send me three black umbrellas?”

Bus Rapid Transit(BRT,快速公交) is coming to Quanzhou City soon. It means giving buses their own ways on the roads. Cars and trucks can’t take these ways. Passengers can buy the tickets at the bus stop before they get on the bus, so they save time getting on. The buses are longer than the common ones, and have lower floors. Real-time information systems let passengers know clearly when the next bus will arrive. If a bus is running late, traffic lights turn green for it .

BRT will become an importan part of this city, and is a good way to deal with Quanzhou’s traffic problems. It will move more passengers and cause fewer traffic jams.

No public-transit system is cheaper and easier to control than BRT. The government says this is an importan project for the future of the city.
