John: Excuse me, can you help me? I'm looking for the library.

Mary: Do you know this town?

John: No, not at all! I'm visiting the town just for today but I need some information from the library.

Mary: OK, we have a nice library, it's very big.

John: Yes, I know the library is big, but I don't know where it is!

Mary: Sure! The library is not far from here. First, go straight down this street for about two blocks.

John: OK, I go straight for two blocks.

Mary: Then you see a river. Go across that river on the bridge.

John: OK, across a river on a bridge.

Mary: Yes, the river is wide and very beautiful.

John: OK.

Mary: Yes, then you'll see a big supermarket on your left. Turn right at the corner after the supermarket.

John: OK, I turn right after the supermarket. What next?

Mary: After you turn, walk for another block. There is a park on your left. The library is across from the park.

John: Across from the park. Got it. Is the library big?

Mary: Yes, it's a big building with a red roof. You can't miss it!

John: Thank you so much!

Mary: No problem! Good luck!
