Name: ____________________ Date: _________________

Bob: Excuse me. I’m not from around here? Could you help me? I'm looking for a bank.
Frank: Well, there are a few banks near here. There’s a bank on the corner of Calista
Way and Eighth Street. It’s a CIBC. And there’s a Scotiabank on the corner of
Lake Street and Nennit Lane. What bank do you need?

Bob: I'm looking for a TD Bank. I just need to withdraw some money.

Frank: OK, no problem. Go three blocks and you will see a traffic light. Take a left
there, and go straight until you come to a stop sign.

Bob: What is the name of that street?

Frank: It's called Nennit Lane. Now, when you come to the stop sign, take the street on
the left. You'll be on 8th Avenue.

Bob: OK, I go straight ahead on this street and take a left on Nennit Lane.

Frank: Yes, that's right.

Bob: Then I go straight to the stop sign and take a right on 8th Avenue.

Frank: No, take a left at the stop sign onto 8th Avenue.

Bob: Oh, OK. And then…?

Frank: Then go down 8th Avenue, pass the supermarket and you will come to another traffic
light. Take a left onto Calista Way. You'll see the bank on the right.

Bob: So I go past a supermarket to the traffic light. I take a left, and the bank is on the right.

Frank: Yes, that's it!

Bob: Well, thank you very much for taking the time to explain this to me!

Frank: Not at all. Enjoy your visit!

Bob: Thank you.
