场景:在纽约地铁站,两个朋友正在等车。
人物:
- Tom:一个刚到纽约的留学生,对这座城市还不太熟悉。
- Lily:在纽约生活多年的本地人,性格开朗,乐于助人。
Tom:
Hey Lily, do you think I can catch the 6 train from here? I’m a bit lost.
Lily:
Hey Tom! Yeah, you can take the 6 train. But wait—what’s your destination?
Tom:
I need to go to Times Square. I’ve heard it’s a must-see place in New York.
Lily:
Oh, that’s a great choice! The 6 train will take you right there. Just make sure to get on the right platform. It’s usually the one with the green sign.
Tom:
Green sign? Okay, I’ll look for that. Thanks for the help!
Lily:
No problem! Oh, and by the way—don’t forget to check the map on your phone. Sometimes the trains change directions without notice.
Tom:
Got it. I should have brought my phone with me. I left it at the hotel.
Lily:
Well, you can use the station’s free Wi-Fi to download a map. Or just ask someone if you’re not sure.
Tom:
That’s a good idea. I really appreciate your help. You know, I’m still getting used to all this.
Lily:
It’s totally normal. I remember when I first came here, I got lost more times than I can count. But after a while, you start to feel like you belong here.
Tom:
I hope I can feel that way soon. So, is there anything else I should know before I get on the train?
Lily:
Just be careful with your belongings. People are busy here, and sometimes things get stolen. And don’t be afraid to ask for help if you need it.
Tom:
Will do. Thanks again, Lily. You’re a lifesaver!
Lily:
Anytime! Have a great trip, and enjoy Times Square!
