华尔街高级英语Lesson 25

100. Oh no; where the hell¹ am I now?
101. Excuse me sir, I think I’m lost.
102. Yes son, I do believe you are. But the Lord² will save you Hallelujah! Just step right this way.
103. No, I mean, I’m trying to get to the airport. Can you help me?
104. Oh, I see. OK son, I’ll show you the way to go. Pay attention please, it’s kinda complicated:
105. First you take a right at the next set of lights, then you go straight till you get to the interstate.
106. Don’t take the interstate, just keep straight, till the lord sends a sign and the sign says “freeway”!
107. Then you take the freeway, make sure you’re northbound, if you go southbound you’ll have to go all around.
108. Once you’re on the freeway you’re going the right way, so you keep on the freeway till the fourth exit.
109. You take the fourth exit and then you’re at the airport. You got that?
110. Uh…yeah, sure! Thanks for your help.
111. Don’t mention it, son.
112. Well, I guess I’d better go.
113. Hey, look out for that truck! I said look out for that truck!
114. You out of your mind?
115. Poor man! I’d better go say a prayer³ for him.
