#Person1#: Why do we have to walk to the station? And where is it?
#Person2#: It's just down that road...I think.
#Person1#: Look! There's a policeman! Ask him the way.
#Person2#: All right. I'll go and ask him.
#Person1#: (pause for 6 seconds) So,what did he say?
#Person2#: Well, we have to walk down this road, take the first turning on the left. Then walk until we come to the river and...
#Person1#: The river?
#Person2#: Yes. It's over there, and there's a bridge. Across the bridge, we will be able to see some road signs which will tell us the way.
#Person1#: But how far is it? How long does it take to walk there?
#Person2#: About fifteen minutes, if we walk quickly.
#Person1#: Fifteen minutes! We may be late for the train. And with these heavy bags, too! I think we ought to take a taxi.
#Person2#: Not at this hour. Look at the traffic. It's moving very slowly. We can get there just as quickly on foot.
#Person1#: Well, I can't possibly carry this bag any farther.
#Person2#: All right. Let me take it, then.
#Person1#: Don't be silly. You can't carry two bags at the same time.
#Person2#: Yes, I can. The bags aren't that heavy...hmm!
#Person1#: You see! They're heavier than you thought!
#Person2#: Perhaps it's not such a bad idea after all.
#Person1#: What isn't such a bad idea? What do you mean?
#Person2#: Taxi! Taxi!
#Person1# and #Person2# are going to the station. #Person1# suggests taking a taxi after #Person2# asks a policeman the way. #Person2# thinks they can get there quickly on foot but changes #Person2#'s mind when #Person2# realizes how heavy their bags are.
