It was early in the morning in Paris. Anna had just checked out of her hotel and needed to catch her flight back home. With her suitcase in hand, she walked outside and realized she didn’t know the exact way to the airport. She noticed a man standing near a bus stop and decided to ask for help. Anna politely said, “Excuse me, could you tell me how to get to the airport?” The man smiled and replied, “Of course. The fastest way is to take the airport shuttle bus. The bus stop is right over there, and it leaves every 20 minutes.” Anna looked relieved and asked, “How long does it take to get there?” He answered, “Around 40 minutes, depending on the traffic.” Anna thanked him and walked to the bus stop, feeling more relaxed knowing she would arrive on time.
