Although the pilot was badly hurt, he was able to explain what had happened.
Peter’s job was to examine cars when they crossed the frontier to make sure that they were not smuggling(走私) anything into the country. Every evening he would see a factory worker coming up the hill towards the frontier, pushing a bike with a pile of goods of old straw on it. When the bike reached the frontier, Peter would stop the man and [1] him take the straw off and untie it. Then he would examine the straw very carefully to see [2] he could find anything, after which he would look in all the man’s pockets before he let him tie the straw again. The man would then put it on his bike and go off down the hill with it. Although Peter was always hoping to find gold or other valuable things hidden in the straw, he never found [3]. He was sure the man was smuggling something, but he was not able to think out what it could be. Then one evening, after he had looked through the straw and emptied the worker’s pockets [4] usual, he said to him, Listen, I know you are smuggling things across this frontier.

I AM A COURIER I am a courier. Many people today are glad to see us, because they expect to receive what they have bought on the Internet. When I see their eager faces, I feel that my job is valuable. I am proud of my job. Why did I choose to be a courier? The first benefit is, I think, couriers can usually deliver an item faster than it would have taken if sent by other means. For example, a person may need to send a document to someone else. He could do this by sending it through the mail. If the two parties are in the same city, this transaction is likely to take at least one day. Couriers, however, usually can make it happen within hours. Secondly, couriers generally offer a receipt for the delivery and that can make their clients feel more secure. Postal services generally are not as efficient in this regard. Even text messages and e-mails may not be comparable. In many cases, without delivery confirmation, the sender knows that something was sent, but there is no confirmation as to whether it was received or when it was received. Most importantly, the Internet has changed people’s shopping habits. More and more people tend to shop on the Internet. The goods bought on the Internet have to be delivered by couriers. So a courier can make more money if he wants to work longer hours. That’s why I have chosen to work as a courier. Well, that’s about my job. Time is money. I have to send packages to the next place now. Talk to you later. 1.People are glad to see couriers because they can bring people good luck.
Couriers can deliver items faster than other means only in the same city.
Postal services generally are not as efficient because there isn’t delivery confirmation.
If working longer hours, couriers can earn more money.
The courier who is talking likes his job.
