In some countries, because the man realizes that the traveler is tired and eager to get to his destination (目的地) ,he will politely say “Just down the road.“ He thinks this is more encouraging, gentler, and therefore the wanted answer.
34、 So the American drives through the night, getting more and more angry, feeling “tricked“. He thinks the man purposely cheated him, for obviously he must have known the distance quite well.Had conditions been turned over, the American would have felt he was “cheating“ the driver if he had said the n

Wearing soft pajamas and with Tom, my stuffed monkey, in my arms, I felt no pressure at all.I named Tom after my uncle when I compared Toms long arms and legs to his. One night I ran up to Uncle Tom at a family party and told him I had named my monkey after him. His
