Some people have a very poor sense(感覺) of direction. Unlucky, I am one of them. I have visited a place many times but I may still get lost there the next time.
When I was a little girl, I never dared ask strangers the way. And so I used to walk round in circle and hope that by chance I would get to the place I was going to.
Now, I am no longer too shy to ask people for directions, but I often receive helpless or even wrong information. So I try to avoid giving people wrong directions. If anyone asks me the way somewhere, I would say, “sorry, I am a stranger here.”
Once on my way to work I was stopped by a man. He asked me if I could tell him the way to the Friendship Building. I gave him my usual reply. But just as I walked on only a few steps. I realized that he had asked the way to my office building. However, I had no time to turn back and look for him. I was rushing to meet with someone at my office and I didn’t want to keep him waiting.
When I just got to my office, the secretary showed in the man who had asked me for directions. Imagine how embarrassed I was and how surprised he was when we saw each other at the first sight!

“Thanks. We’d love to. What time?” or “___小題1:___”However, it is not polite to say “No, we wouldn't!”
Sometimes, the British use expressions that sound like invitations but which are not invitations. For example, “___小題2:___” These are usually just polite ways of ending a talk. They are not real invitations because they don't mention an exact time or day. They just show that the person is trying to be friendly and the answers are “Yes, that would be nice.” or “___小題3:___”.
So next time you hear what sounds like an invitation, listen carefully. Is it a real invitation or is the person just being friendly?

小題4:What is the article mainly about?
A.Britain.B.A letter to friends.C.Invitations.D.A talk with friends.
