Read the passage carefully and choose the correct answer.

Here on Skye I do more than deliver letters and parcels. There aren't any buses

or trains on this part of island, so the post office also runs a passenger service. The

bus which I drive has eleven seats, so people from the farms and villages can get

into Broadford for shopping or for work.

I live in Elgol, a small village on the south-west coast of the island. I leave

Elgol post office every morning at 8 a.m. and drive my bus 24km to Broadford. I

stop for passengers and empty the five post boxes along the road. I also pick up the

school children that live along my route and take them to the school in Broadford.

There's a school for young children in Elgol, but the older children have to travel

into the town.

It usually takes me about three hours to finish my round. I take shopping to

some of the elderly person who can't always get to Broadford; I deliver milk and

newspapers six days a week. I shouldn't deliver animals, but I sometimes take a

puppy or a rabbit as a passenger. The Post Office charges people, of course, for all

these extra services. It's 70p to travel from Elgol to Broadford and it costs 10p to

deliver a pint of milk.

People often ask me how I like living here on Skye, especially since I come

from the city. Well, it's difficult to explain, but here I feel part of the community; it's

good to know that you are helping people. I'd hate to live in the city again.
