Some people have a very poor sense of direction. Unlucky，I’m 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 around in circle and hope that by chance I would get to the place I was going to．
Now，I’m 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’m 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 appeared 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(秘书）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!

The proud oyster replied, “I have a strong shell and I feel safe when I close my shell, for no danger can happen to me.”
“But when you close your shell, you may not know what is happening，” answered the fish.
Still the oyster said that he was perfectly safe and he needed no friends to care about him.
Suddenly, there was a great splashing sound and the oyster closed his shell and very quickly kept quiet.
