asking for direction 问路

【beginner】step1：初级入门

a: excuse me, can you tell me the way to holton railway station?

b: sure. it’s quite far from here. don’t worry, though. it’s not difficult to get there.

a: i think i’m going in the wrong direction, aren’t i ?

b: yes. first, you need to turn around. do you remember passing some traffic lights further up this road?

a: yes, i do. they are about two miles away, right?

b: that’s right. drive back to the traffic lights and turn right. follow the road for about a mile, until you see the plaza hotel. it’s a really big hotel. you can’t miss it. turn left at the hotel.

a: so, right at the traffic lights two miles up the road, then left at the plaza hotel, a mile along that road. got it.

b:then you just go straight on until you see the station ahead of you.

a:ok. got it. thanks for your help.

b: no problem.

a: ok, i’ve got an up-to-date map. let’s check the route from here to the airport.

b: where are we? oh, here we are. so we drive to the a120 and turn left.

a: no, we turn right. remember that we are coming from this direction.

b: oh yes! sorry! then we drive to the m11 motorway.

a: how far is that?

b: it’s only seven miles. we turn left to join the motorway and drive south.

a: according to the map, we get off the m11 at the second junction and join the m25. that’s the motorway that goes around the edge of london.

b: that’s another 15 miles, so that’s 22 miles total so far.

a: then we drive west on the m25. we must be careful to turn in the right direction!

b: then we drive on the m25. it turns south. when we reach exit 15, we turn left and go west along the m4.

a: then we take the first right to heathrow airport. what’s the total distance?

b: the journey around the m25 is 33 miles and then 3 extra miles to get to the airport. so how many miles is that together?

a: 22 miles to the m25, 33 miles on the m25, and 3 after that. that’s a total of 58 miles, isn’t it?

b: it shouldn’t take us very long to cover that distance. remember that we can go quite fast on the motorways.

a: we can only go fast on the motorways if there isn’t much traffic. i think we should allow ourselves plenty of time to get there. being early is much better than being late.
