3、I was lost in a strange country. And what's worse, the only word I knew of the language was the name of the hotel, but I pronounced(发音) it badly.

    I stopped and asked a friendly-looking newspaper seller. He smiled and handed me a paper. I shook my head (摇头) and said the name of the hotel again and he put the paper into my hands. I had to give him some money 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 by the arm. He pointed left and right and left again. I thanked him and began walking on.

     About an hour later I arrived at a strange town. The only thing left for me to do was to find the nearest(最近) bus station.
