I was in a strange city and I didn’t know the city at all. And what is more, I could not eak a word of the l 86 . After having ent my first day in the town center, I decided to lose my way on my second day, since I was sure that this was the better way of g 87 to know the strange city. I got on the first bus in the morning, rode on it for several sto , then got off it and walked on . The first two hours p 88 ha ily enough. Then I decided to turn back to my h 89 for lunch. After walking about for some time , I decided I had better ask the way. The t 90 was that the only word I knew of the language was the name of the street in which I lived and even that I pronounced badly. I sto ed to ask a friendly looking new aper s 91 . He smiled and handed me a paper. I shook (摇) my head and repeated the name of the street and he put the paper into my hands I had to give him some m 92 and went on my way. Then I met a policeman. I asked him at once. The policeman listened to me carefully. Smiled and took me b 93 the arm. There was a strange look in his eyes as he pointed left and right and left a 94 . I thanked him politely and began walking on . About an hour pa ed and I found that the houses were getting fewer and fewer and green fields could be s 95 on either side of me. I had come all the way into the country. The thing left for me to do was to find the nearest bus station.
