Visitors often get lost in a foreign country. So knowing the way is very important. People in different countries have different ways to show the way.
In Japan, people don’t use street names, but they use landmarks(地标) in their directions(方向). For example, when you ask the way to a bank, the Japanese can say, “Go along the street, turn left at the hospital and you can see a fruit market. The bank is there.”
In the countryside of America usually there are not many landmarks. Because there are no towns or buildings in miles(英里). If people show you the way, they can say, “Go north two miles. Turn east, and then go another mile.”
How do people in California show the way? They use time, not miles. “银行有多远？”you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “it is about five minutes from here.” You say, “Yes. How many miles?” They don’t know.
People in Greece(希腊) are very kind. Because most visitors cannot understand the Greek language. If you ask Greeks for the way, they often say, “Follow me.” Then they can bring you through the streets of the city to the place where you want to go.
