A tall man was waiting for a taxi at a bus stop. Then a short man came. Later, an old lady joined them at the same bus stop because she wanted to take a taxi, too.
It was raining hard, so all the taxis passed by them but didn't stop to get them. Finally, a kind taxi driver stopped near them. The tall man tried to run to the taxi but the short man stopped him. So they started to argue (争吵).
The short man said that he had an important meeting to go to, so he had to take the taxi there quickly. The tall man said that he got to the bus stop earlier, so it was his turn to take the taxi. Then both of them got very angry. They stopped each other from getting into the taxi.
At the same time, the old lady watched the men arguing and didn't say anything. She quietly closed her umbrella, opened the door and got into the taxi.
The driver and the woman laughed and the taxi went away.
