二、阅读还原5选5
Many people often meet such a difficult situation. It’s that they don’t know the way in new places, and they are too shy to ask people for the way. 11 Firstly, you must know some important and useful expressions, such as “Could you please… ” “Excuse me” and “Thanks a lot”. For example, when we want to ask strangers for the way, we should say “Excuse me’’ first. This is a very useful expression. 12 Next, “Could you please … ’’ is often used while asking for the direction. 13 It’s also polite to shake hands with the strangers. Secondly we often need to take some useful thing with us. They usually include pens, special maps, photos and so on. 14 We can write down the crucial (关键性的) words about the place, and then we can show them to the stranger who we want to ask for help. Of course, the map can help us find the correct way. 15 Then we can use the map to know the directions and find the right place.
A．Sometimes a pen can help us get to the right place.
B．In the USA, people also use it in many different situations.
C．After we know how to get to the place, we should say “Thanks” to others.
D．When we go to a strange place, we can take a map with us.
E．Here are two tips on how to ask for the way politely.

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(秘书) 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.

Dear John,
Let me tell you the way to the Report Hall. Turn left after you enter the school gate. Turn left again at the first corner. Go straight down this road until you reach the Science Building and turn left. You can see the Report Hall behind the Science Building.
The report will start at 9 a.m. on the day of the Art Festival. There will be other activities on that day. If you have artistic talent, you can show yourself in a talent show. A trade meeting will be held in the afternoon. Maybe you can sell or buy something made by ourselves. You can go to the school office for more information about the festival.
Yours,
Li Ping
