One summer day last year, I visited a city in France in my car. It was late in the afternoon. I couldn't
find the way to the Garden Hotel. When I drove for a long time, I saw a beautiful young woman.
She took a lot of bags with her and came out of' a supermarket. I stopped and asked her," Excuse
me, madam. Can you tell me the way to the Garden Hotel?"
"The Garden Hotel? Sure. But it may be difficult for you to find it now. I'll show you the way if' you
like."
"Oh! Thank you very much, Please get into my car."
Then I helped her put the bags in my car. An hour later, we came to a big house. The young woman
said, "Please stop here. "
I stopped and looked at the house. "But this is not a hotel," I said to her.
"No," she answered with a smile. "this is my house. And now let me show you the way to the
Garden Hotel. Go along the street and turn right on the first turning. Then you can easily find the Garden
Hotel on your left. It's only a two-minute drive from here. And thank you for driving me home."
Then she took up all the bags and walked to her home.
