I explained the situation to the conductor who advised me to get off before Union Station and take a taxi. When the time came, he even helped me with my language. He wished mea good luck as I jumped off, and a few minutes later I was going towards the Union Station in a taxi. It was almost 7:50 when we stopped outside the station, I paid the driver quickly, carried my bags and hurried inside.

听力原文: I didn't know the city at all and what is more, I couldn't speak a word of the language. However, I decided to try out the pleasure of adventure. I got on a bus and it took me to a place that appeared to be a suburb.
I was fascinated by its pure natural scenery and the little book-stores I found in back streets. Time passed quickly and it was time to go back to my hotel for lunch. After walking aimlessly for some time, I determined to ask the way.
I first asked a friendly-looking newspaper-seller. He smiled and handed me a paper. I shook my head and repeated the name of the street and he thrust the paper into my hands. Hopelessly, I gave him the money and went on my way. The next person I asked was an old lady buying vegetables. She was very hard of hearing. I kept repeating the name of the street into her ear. When she finally heard me, she seemed to take offence and began shouting and shaking her walking-stick at me. I hurried away quickly. In frustration, I was overwhelmed with the delight of seeing a policeman on the comer. Gently he took me by the arm and pointed left and right and left again. I nodded politely and began walking in the direction he pointed. About an hour later I found myself between large fields of green crops. I had come all the way into the country.

The air hostess was kept so busy that she forgot to give him the water. As a result, the passenger was held up to take his medicine. Thirty minutes later, when the passenger's ring for service sounded, she hurried over to him with a cup of water, but he refused.
In the following hours on the plane, each time the air hostess passed by the passenger, she would ask him with a smile whether he needed help or not. But the passenger never answered a word.
When he was going to get off the plane, the passenger asked the air hostess to hand him the passengers' booklet. She was very sad. She knew that he would write down sharp words, but with a smile she handed it to him.
Off the plane, she opened the booklet, and smiled, for the passenger put it. “On the flight, you asked me whether I needed help or not for twelve times in all. How can I refuse your twelve sincere smiles?”
That's right! Who can refuse twelve sincere smiles from a person?
