My thoughts about pages16~17 of”The third ear”Author and his two New Zealand students and a new made Palestinian friend off to Beidaihe.a Chinese seaside resort northeast of Beijing.At the time,China just opening to outside world.Public transport was pretty limited.This situation about the train trip,link my experience about a train trip.The Spring Festival of at two thousand three. The Spring Festival was only two weeks away.people will enjoy the Spring Festival went back the home.Spring Festival is a most important festival in China.At that time every year.Everywhere people all go back themselves home to reunion with family.get reunion dinner with themselves family.people all go back the home before spring Festival from themselves work.Train is one of the most important of public transport.People will get train ticket have to before one week or two weeks to purchase.But it’s reality,you don’t get on the train however you have the train ticket.Because train was full.when my experience.People sit on the chair,people sit on the back of chair,people sit on the luggage carrier,people lie on the train floor under the chair.If you want to the toilet,maybe you spend twenty minutes.when you return here you found didn’t had place.so people can’t drink a little of water in the train.if train get next station,people more standing outside of train.People didn’t open train door,even you didn’t open train window.If you want to buy some food with open train window.People outside of train climb up the train window and into it.So people can’t open the train window.If person was hungry and take some food out of the luggage.Why have so many people get train.Because, at the time,train is cheaper and safe of public transport.At that time,I went to work in the small company of South in China. I went by train,about spend a few hours.Sometimes,train was empty.Of course,When didn’t at Spring Festival. I could lie down on the chair for sleeping.normally,at that time,train had a few thief.you had to be careful for your wallet and phone.My smart way was made myself umpty.then I could sleeping safe.
