I’ve been in the taxi business for thirty-five years,
38 there is a lot about it that is not so good. Taxi drivers have to be rough and tumble(亂作一團) fellows to be able to take it in New York. Youve got to be
39
to fight the New York traffic eight hours a day.
Because taxi drivers are tough,people get the
40
impression that they are bad. Taxi drivers are just like other people. Most of them will act as
41
fellows. lmost every week you read in the papers where a taxi driver
42

I was born and
in Ireland until I was nineteen years old. I came to this country in 1913 where I
48
several jobs to earn a few dollars before joining the army in World War I. After being discharged(退伍),I bought my own car and have owned one ever since. It hasn’t been too easy
49
,but my wife takes care of our money and we have a good bit
50
for a rainy day(一時之需). In all my years of driving a taxi,I have never had___51__ with the public,not even with drunks. Even if they get a little headstrong(頑固的) once in a while,I just agree with them and then they behave themselves.
People ask me about tips. As far as I know,
52
everyone will give you something,because most Americans are
53
generous. I always try to be nice to everyone,whether they
54
or not. I believe in God and try to be a good member of my parish(教區). I try to act toward others like I think God wants me to act. I have been trying this for a long time,and the

I try,the easier it gets.
