I met the guy who told me an amazing story．He was  21  Scotland on a motorbike by himself．One late afternoon he was on the road between Aberdeen and Elgin．He was travelling along, miles from any village, when he saw a really  22   girl standing by the road, hitchhiking (搭便车).Anyway, he stopped and said he would give her a  23   to Elgin．She got and drove off．He said he  24  having her on the back,  as it was nice   25．But after a time he forgot that she was there．Suddenly he  26  but he realized that he couldn’t feel her knees  27  against him ! He  28  behind him but …she wasn’t there.

He said he felt frightened  29  his life ! He felt cold all over．He thought she must have 30  off the back．So he turned round and 31  back along the road．He didn’t find her．So he began to think that she might have been 32 by someone else.

Anyway, he drove on towards Elgin and didn’t see anyone  33  he came to a pub．He decided to  34  so that he could talk to someone and he thought he ought to tell  35  ．He went into the pub and talked to the barman．He told the barman what had happened．He said the barman didn’t seem to be at all  36 ．He just carried on  37  the glasses.

Then the barman said, “you are not the  38  person to come in here and tell the same  39 ．That girl you think you picked up  40  seven years ago… in a motorbike accident.”
