City of Traffic Which detail from the passage BEST supports the
theme that patience is the best response to
frustration?
On the map, the distance between Abdeze's
aunt's place in Ojota and Winnifred's place on
Lagos Island was only about 20 kilometers. If
traffic was light, Abaeze could make the trip
by cab in about half an hour.
At the bus stop. Abaeze sees a line of people
snaking all the way down the block."
Till see you for lunch." Abaeze told Winnifred on
the phone.
On the van, Abaeze thinks about his situation with
the long-suffering acceptance of an ox in heavy
rain.
Winnifred let out a sinister laugh. "Perhaps I'll
see you for dinner."
The cab slows down, "mired in the thickening
sludge like a wooly mammoth in a prehistoric tar
pit."
While Abaeze sits in traffic, street vendors rushed
between the stopped cars, hawking their wares."
