John has lived in London for a few years, but he isn't so familiar with that city, because he seldom goes out. One foggy morning, he had to go somewhere to attend an important meeting. Because of the heavy fog, he was unable to get the right way. Although he asked many people for the direction, no one paid attention to him, for they were all in a hurry. He looked so anxious. At this very moment, a woman came out of the fog and said, “Let me help you, Sir. Please go with me." John followed the woman, and then she led him to the right place. It took them about half an hour. John owed his great thanks to her. However, to his great surprise, he found that the woman was blind. “How can you take me here?" John asked. “I have been living in London since I was born, so I'm very familiar with every street in this city." the woman answered.
約翰在倫敦住了幾年,但他對那個城市并不是很熟悉,因為他很少出門。在一個有霧的早晨,他要去參加一個重要會議。由于霧太大,他無法找到正確的方向。雖然他向很多人問方向,沒有人注意到他,因為他們都在趕時間。他看上去很著急。在這個非常時刻,一個女人從大霧中走出來對他說,“先生,我來幫助你吧。請跟我走吧。”約翰跟著她,之后她帶他帶到正確的地方。他們大約花了半個小時。約翰非常感謝她。然而,令他吃驚的是,他發(fā)現(xiàn)那個女人是盲人。“你是怎么能帶我到這里來?”約翰問。“我從出生開始就一直生活在倫敦,所以我非常熟悉這個城市的每一條街道。”女人回答說。
