Janie , the driver , tries to break the uncomfortable atmosphere (气氛)by striking the match of talks . I try to listen politely , but usually I am too busy thinking about my day . On this day , however , her talk was worth (值得)listening to . “My father‟s ill , ”she said to no one in particular (特别地). I could see worry in her eyes . I had never seen her like this before . She always meets students with a smile . With a sudden change of interest , I asked , “What‟s wrong with him ? ” With her eyes wet and her voice unusual , she answered , “Heart trouble . ”Her eyes lowered as she continued . “I‟ve already lost my mum , so I don‟t think I can stand losing him . ”I couldn‟t answer . My heart ached for her . I sat on the seat thinking of the great pain (痛苦)my own mother was thrown into when her father died . I saw how hard it was , and still is , for her .
