READING Read the passage below and choose the correct answer for each question. MISSING THE TRAIN The train I was traveling on was already half an hour late. I had arranged to arrive in Vienna at 7.15 in time to catch the 7.25 train to Paris, but there was no hope of that now. I explained the situations to the ticket collector who advised me to get off two stops before Vienna Central Station and take a taxi. When the time came, he even helped me with my luggage . He wished me good luck as I jumped off, and a few minutes later I was racing towards the centre of the city in a taxi . It was almost 7.25 when we stopped outside the station. I paid the driver quickly, seized my bags and hurried inside. “Paris train?” was all I had time to say to the first official I saw.
