20160607：The record-holder 纪录保持着
Children who play truant from school are unimaginative. A quiet day's fishing, or eight
hours in a cinema seeing the same film over and over again, is usually as far as they get.
They have all been put to shame by a boy who, while playing truant, travelled 1,600miles.
He hitch hiked to Doverand, towards evening, went into a boat to find somewhere to sleep.
When he woke up next morning, he discovered that the boat had, in the meantime,
travelled to Calais. No one noticed the boy as he crept off. From there, he hitchhiked to
Paris in a lorry. The driver gave him a few biscuits and a cup of coffee and left him just
outside the city. The next car the boy stopped did not take him into the centre of Paris as
he hoped it would, but to Perpignan on the French-Spanish border. There he was picked up
by apoliceman and sent back to England by the local authorities. He has surely set up a
record for the thousands of children who dream of evading school.
