A Lost Afternoon (Part 2)
Xiao Dong's Delivery Adventures — too many intersections, one kind stranger.

送完第一单后,小东接到新的地址。After the first delivery, Xiao Dong received a new address.他看地图,可是路口太多,他不太确定方向。He checked the map, but there were too many intersections, and he wasn't very sure of the way.没多久,他发现走错了。Before long, he realized he had gone the wrong way.
小东停下来,看着四周,心里不太舒服。Xiao Dong stopped and looked around, not feeling very good about it.一个爷爷走来问他是不是迷路。An elderly man walked over and asked if he was lost.爷爷笑着告诉他正确的路。The old man smiled and told him the right way.
小东道谢后继续前进。Xiao Dong thanked him and carried on.他想:下次一定要小心点,我不太想再迷路了。He thought: next time I have to be more careful — I don't really want to get lost again.
