Lesson 16 A polite request

🌻Part 1: Text

Discussion

1. Have you ever noticed the traffic signs in streets?

2. Can you guess the meanings of the signs below

Text：

If you park your car in the wrong place, a traffic policeman will soon find it. You will be very lucky if he let's you go without a ticket. However, this does not always happen. Traffic police are sometimes very polite. During a holiday in Sweden, I found this note on my car: ‘sir, we welcome you to out city. This is a “No Parking” area. You will enjoy your stay here if you pay attention to our street signs. This note is only a reminder.’ If you receive a request like this, you cannot fail to obey it!
