| [00:12.640] |
--- Why did the man need a phrasebook? |
| [00:18.040] |
Last week Mrs. Mills went to London. |
| [00:22.360] |
She does not know London very well, and she lost her way. |
| [00:27.640] |
Suddenly, she saw a man near a bus stop. |
| [00:32.160] |
'I can ask him the way.' she said to herself.^“ |
| [00:37.240] |
'Excuse me,' she said. 'Can you tell me the way to King Street, please?'^“ |
| [00:45.480] |
The man smiled pleasantly. |
| [00:48.760] |
He did not understand English! |
| [00:52.320] |
He spoke German. |
| [00:54.640] |
He was a tourist. |
| [00:57.080] |
Then he put his hand into his pocket,and took out a phrasebook. |
| [01:03.760] |
He opened the book and found a phrase. |
| [01:07.920] |
He read the phrase slowly. |
| [01:11.840] |
'I am sorry,' he said. 'I do not speak English.' |
