amusement park in our city!
Alice: I’m excited to try the rides!
He Wei: What should we start with?
There’s Space World, Water
World, Animal World ...
Alice: Before we decide, could you first tell me
where the restrooms are?
He Wei: Pardon? Restroom? You want to rest? But we
haven’t even started yet!
Alice: Oh no, I don’t mean that. I mean... you know,
a washroom or bathroom.
He Wei: Hmm... so you mean... the toilets?
Alice: Yes! Sorry, maybe people in China don’t often
use the word “restroom” when they speak
English.
He Wei: That’s right. In China, we normally say “toilet”
or “washroom” in English. Anyway, they’re
over there.
Alice: OK. I’ll be quick!
He Wei: No problem. You don’t need to rush!
