"We must get on to the A3," he said⁷. "That's the road which will take us to the south coast⁸." Neither⁹ mother nor¹⁰ father knew the way to the A3 so they had¹¹ to stop to ask a policemen.
"Excuse me," mother said. "Could you please tell me the way to the A3?"
"Yes, madam," the officer¹² said. "Take the first turning¹³ on your right and continue¹⁴ along¹⁵ the road till¹⁶ you come to a cinema. Turn left at the cinema and go straight¹⁷ on. This will bring you to the A3."
"Thank you, officer," mother said.
Mother drove¹⁸ on, but she didn't turn right. "We're going¹⁹ in the wrong direction," father cried. " Why didn't you turn right? If you had turned right back there, we would²⁰ have come to the A3."
"Oh, be quiet, Jim." mother said. "That policeman made²¹ a mistake²², If I had turned right back there. I would have been in serious²³ trouble²⁴. It was a one-way street!"
