• William: Excuse me, I am sorry to trouble you, but could you tell me how I can get to the train station?对不起，打扰了，你能告诉我去火车站怎么走吗?

• William: Thank you so much! I have only been in Manchester for 2 days, so I don't know how to get anywhere yet.非常感谢!我来曼彻斯特才2天，所以我还不认识路。

• Kate: Oh, I know that feeling. Me and my husband moved here 6 months ago, and I still don't know how to find certain places! Manchester is so big.哦，我知道那种感觉。我和我的丈夫搬到这里六个月了，我还找不到某些地方!曼彻斯特太大了。

• William: So just to double check. Keep walking straight ahead till I pass the library, then I have to turn left and take the first right. Then it's across the bus station. Is that correct?我再确认一下，一直往前走,经过图书馆左转，然后右转。火车站就在公共汽车站对面。对吗?

• Kate: Yes, that is correct.是的，没错。

• William: Well thanks for helping me. I must go and catch my train, hopefully I haven't miss it!谢谢你的帮忙。我得去赶火车了，希望我不会错过。

• Kate: OK, bye.好的,再见。
