This morning, after I finished my homeworks, I decided to go to the cinema to see a film. I was about to arrive while I found a foreigner standing on the side of the road, looking nervously. Then I came up to him to see what was the matter about him. However, none of us could understand each other. At the last, we managed to make ourselves understand with the help of body language. The foreigner wanted go to People’s park. I stopped a taxi and told the driver to drive me there. Then I ran to the cinema as fast as I could and have a good time.
