Passage
At the Railway Station

Mr. Wang has bought a train ticket at the booking office. He still has some time before the train leaves, so he finds a seat and sits down. A few minutes later, he hears an announcement over the loudspeaker4:
"Attention, please. The 8:30 train to Philadelphia will be delayed for 20 minutes. The 8:30 train is running about 20 minutes late. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause."
It is his train. Mr. Wang has a look at his watch and continues to wait. He has almost fallen asleep, when he hears the announcement:
"The 8:30 train to Philadelphia is now standing5 at Platform 5. Passengers are requested to board the train immediately."
Mr. Wang gets to his feet happily and comes up to the ticket collector. He will soon be home.
