Last night, Tom got on a bus. He was lucky to have a seat near the window. He opened his newspaper and began to read.
After passing a few bus stops, a woman got on the bus with a big basket. There were no empty seats. She came and stood right beside Tom.
At that moment, Tom was reading his newspaper and didn't see her. A few minutes later he looked up and put his newspaper in his pocket (口袋). He tried to get out of his seat, but the woman pushed (推) him back into his seat quickly.
He tried to stand up again, but again the woman pushed him back into his seat. Then she said, "please don't stand up. I don't want men to give their seat on buses. men and women are equal (平等的) now." But Tom looked at her angrily and said ," This time I am really going to stand up, madam. You've made me miss two bus stops and I'm too tired to miss the next one, too,"
After hearing this, the woman was very embarrassed (尴尬) and let him go.
