People all over the world have some strange hobbies, and one of the most unusual in Britain is “trainspotting.” It's usually men over the age of 40, but not always. You'll see them standing around at railway stations and other places where trains pass by, and you'll see them taking photos and exchanging notes with each other. So, what are they doing?
Well, they're collecting information about trains — the numbers on the front of the trains, or the make and model of the“ locomotive (火車頭)” —the part of the train which pulls all the other parts. In the same way that some people collect toys or stamps, these men collect and exchange all kinds of details about trains and railways.
The idea goes back as far as 1942. That year, a young man named Ian Allan was working at Waterloo rail-way station in London. It was his job to answer letters from people about trains, and quite a lot of the questions he received were very similar, so he had a word with his boss. He asked if he could write a booklet (小手冊) giving the answers to the most frequently asked questions - an early version of the FAQs you see on websites nowadays. His boss said if he wanted to waste his time on such a project, he should do it in his own time.
So he did. The first 2,000 copies were all sold in days, and by the 1950s, a million copies of British Railways Locomotives were selling every year. Ian Allan went on to become a successful publisher, and got an Order of the British Empire (OBE,大英帝國勛章) from the Queen in 1995. He died in 2015, but his trainspotting hobby lives on.

After having two more glasses of cordial, Diana turned pale suddenly.
“I’m sick,” she said, “I must go home.” And she left Green Gables and ran all the way home.
On Monday, Anne went to see if Diana was better. She soon ran back home with tears rolling down cheeks.
“What has happened, Anne?” asked Matila.
“Mrs. Barry says that I sent Diana home drunk on Saturday. She says she’s never going to let Diana play with me again!”
Marilla went to the cupboard and then came back to the kitchen with a bottle of wine, trying not to smile.
“Anne, you gave Diana wine instead of raspberry cordial. Didn’t you know the difference?”
“I never tasted it,” said Anne. “But Mrs. Barry will never believe me. And now I’ll never be able to play with Diana again!”
The following Monday, Anne surprised Marilla by coming down from her room with her books. “I’m going back to school,” she said. “That is all there is left in life for me, now that my friend is gone.”
Marilla tried not to show how happy she was to hear this. “You’d better work hard,” she said.
Anne did work hard, and soon she was top of the class with Gilbert Blythe, whom she still found very annoying.
One evening, Anne was at home doing her homework. Matthew was home, but Marilla had gone to town with the Barrys and Mrs. Lynde. Suddenly, Anne looked up and saw Diana standing at the door. She looked very worried.
“What is the matter, Diana?” cried Anne.
Oh, Anne, do come quick,” said Diana nervously. “Minnie May is very sick. Father and Mother are away in town and there’s nobody to go for the doctor.”
