Mrs Smith wants to go to the post office, but she doesn't know the way. She sees an old man on the street. She says. Can you tell me the way to the post office?" The old man doesn't answer. She is angry and shouts, "old man tel me the way to the post office! Can you hear me?" The old man looks at her and says, "Turn right here, and then turn left at the Zhongshan Park, turn right and turn right. You will see the nearest post office on your left."
Mrs Smith follows what the old man says. She drives for half an hour. She meets the old man again. She gets very angry and shouts," Why do you tell me the wrong (错误的) way?" The old man answers, " Because you ask the way in the wrong way."
