[Story] Tom, a slow and meticulous man, loved his daily bicycle ride to work. One day, he decided to try a new mode of transportation. He bought a ticket for the subway, which was faster than his usual commute. At the station, he saw a motorbike speeding by, leaving a trail of dust. He thought, “That’s too fast for me.” As he waited for the train, he noticed a ship in the distance, moving at a leisurely pace. He boarded the train, which was a smooth ride, and he arrived at work just in time. Tom thought, “This is a great way to start my day. I might even try a plane for my next vacation.”
