Ⅳ.阅读理解 A

I have a rule for travel: Never carry a map. I prefer to ask for

directions. Foreign visitors are often puzzled in Japan because most

streets there don't have names. In Japan, people use landmarks in their

directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say

to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel

and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”

In the countryside of the American Midwest, usually there are not

many landmarks. There are no mountains, so the land is very flat (平坦的). In many places there are no towns or buildings within miles.

Instead of landmarks, people will tell you directions and distance. In

Kansas or Iowa, for example, people will say, “Go north two miles. Turn

east, and then go another mile.”

People in Los Angeles, California, have no idea of distance on the

map: They measure distance by means of time, not miles. “How far away

is the post office？” you ask. “Oh，” they answer, “It's about five

minutes from here.” You say, “Yes, but how many miles away is it？”

They don't know.

People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions because visitors seldom understand the Greek language. Instead of giving you the

direction, a Greek will often say, “Follow me.” Then he'll lead you

through the streets of the city to the post office.

Sometimes a person doesn't know the answer to your question. What happens in this situation? A New Yorker might say, “Sorry, I have no

idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers, “I don't know.” People in Yucatan think that “I don't know” is impolite. They

usually give an answer, often a wrong one. A visitor can get very, very

lost in Yucatan!

One thing will help you everywhere — in Japan, in the United States,

in Greece, in Mexico, or in any other place. You might not understand

a person's words, but maybe you can understand his body language. He or

she will usually turn and then point in the correct direction. Go in that
