Some people have a very poor sense(感覺) of direction. Unlucky, I am one of them. I have visited a place many times but I may still get lost there the next time.
When I was a little girl, I never dared ask strangers the way. And so I used to walk round in circle and hope that by chance I would get to the place I was going to.
Now, I am no longer too shy to ask people for directions, but I often receive helpless or even wrong information. So I try to avoid giving people wrong directions. If anyone asks me the way somewhere, I would say, “sorry, I am a stranger here.”
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 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!
小題1:The writer always refuses to give people directions because          .
A．she’s a strange to the cityB．she doesn’t know the people
C．she has no time to help othersD．she’s afraid of giving wrong directions.
小題2:A man stopped the writer on the way to          .
A．sell her somethingB．a(chǎn)sk for the time
C．make friends with herD．a(chǎn)sk for the directions.

A．livesB．studiesC．worksD．teaches
小題4:The word “embarrassed” in the last paragraph means “      ”.
A．尷尬B．困惑C．激動D．拮據(jù)
