LISTEN
You are going to listen to a tape about Ba’s trip to his home village.
listen
At 6.30 in the morning, the bus collected Ba and his family from their home. After picking everyone up, the bus continued north on Highway Number 1. It crossed Dragon Bridge and stopped at the gas station to get some more fuel.
listen
Then it left the highway and turned left onto a smaller road westward. This road ran between green paddy fields, so the people on the bus could see a lot of cows and buffaloes. The road ended before a big store beside a pond.
listen
Instead of turning left towards a small airport, the bus went in the opposite direction. It didn’t stay on that road for very long, but turned left onto a road which went through a small bamboo forest.
listen
Finally, the bus dropped everyone off at the parking lot ten meters from a big old banyan tree. It parked there and waited for people to come back in the evening.
