Buses have a two person crew

it ’ s a driver who drives, of course,

and the conductor (or the

conductress if it ’ s a woman) who

takes your money. Keep your

ticket as the inspector might want

to check it. You catch a bus

waiting at a bus stop.

A double-decker bus has an

upstairs (top) and a downstairs

a single-decker

a double-decker

(inside).

For longer distances take

a long distance bus called

a coach which is slower but

cheaper.

The use of the word “ inside ”

for the lower deck dates from

the early days when the top

deck was open, so that only

passengers on the lower deck were inside. People queue

for buses in Britain.

But you shouldn ’ t jump the queue: people don ’ t like it.

Only a limited number is allowed to stand inside.

And no one may stand on top. Smoking in allowed on

top but you cannot smoke inside.
