The worst traveler in the world was Paul of San Francisco.Once he flew from the U.S.to his hometown in Italy to see someone at home.The plane made a one-hour stop to get oil at an airport in New York.Paul thought he was in Rome.Certainly,he got off the plane.When nobody was there to meet him,Paul thought maybe the heavy traccffic made his friends late.While looking for their address,Paul found that the old “Rome” had changed a lot.He found many high modern buildings instead of old ones.He also found that many people spoke English but not Italian and that many street signs were written in English.Paul knew very little English.So he asked a policeman in Italian the way to the bus station.He happened to meet a policeman who was also born in Italy and answered in the same language.After twelve hours’ traveling round on a bus,the driver handed him over to another policeman.But this time,this policeman could only speak English.So paul asked the policeman why the Rome police employed so many people who spoke English as policemen.Paul didn’t believe he was in New York when he was told so.To get him on a plane to Italy,he was sent to the airport in a police car.
世界上最糟糕的游客莫过于旧金山的保罗了.有一次他从美国回意大利老家探望朋友.飞机中途在纽约机场停留了一个小时加油.保罗以为已经到了罗马,就下了飞机.但是没有人来接他,他以为是堵车所以接他的朋友迟到了.在寻找朋友家地址的时候,他发现罗马变化好大,古老的建筑变成了现代化的摩天大楼,周围的人都在讲英语,而不是意大利语,连街上的路标都是英文标注的.保罗只会一点点英语,于是在去汽车站的路上他用意大利语向警察问路.这个警察刚好是在意大利出生的,就用意大利语回答了他.乘坐了12个小时的大巴,大巴司机把他交给了另一个警察.这一次这个警察只会讲英语,所以保罗问他为什么罗马警察局雇佣了这么多只会讲英语的人来当警察.当他被告知这是在纽约时,保罗不相信.为把他送上回意大利的飞机,警察用警车带他去的机场.
