“Oh! It’s already twelve o’clock,” Nadia cried when she woke up. She brushed her teeth and washed her face
immediately. However, she spent more than one hour to dress up and make herself look more beautiful. She looked
again and again at herself in the mirror. Finally, happy with how she looked, she went out and took a bus. When
she arrived at the city center, she stopped a taxi on a busy road. She said to the driver: “Can you see that young man
on the other side of the road?” “Yes,” said the taxi-driver. The young man was standing outside a department store
and looked at his watch not very patiently every few seconds. “Please drive me over there,” said Nadia. There were
a lot of cars and buses on the road. The driver asked her: “Are you afraid to cross the road?” “Not really!” She
explained. “I was to meet him for lunch at one o’clock, but it is already a quarter to two. If I take a taxi, it will at
least seem as if I had tried not to be late.” 【題組】
