Passenger: Hey Taxi!
Driver: Good morning Sir! Where to?
Passenger: Well, I’m going to the British Museum.
Driver: Sure. Hop in. No problem.
Passenger: Excuse me. How long does it take to get there?
Driver: Well, it depends on the traffic, but it shouldn’t take more than twenty minutes, but I know a short-cut, so we should be able to get there in less than twelve minutes.
Passenger: All right. Sorry for asking, but do you have any idea how much the fare will be?
Driver: Oh, it shouldn’t be more than £ 12.
Passenger: Do you know what time the museum closes?
Driver: I guess around 6:00 o’clock.
Passenger: … and what time is it now?
Driver: It’s half past four. This is your first time to London, isn’t it?
Passenger: Yes. How did you know?
Driver: Well, you can tell tourists from a mile away in London.
Passenger: Is it so obvious? Oh, and before I forget, can you recommend any good restaurant downtown that offer meals at a reasonable price?
Driver: Well, the Italian restaurant, Da Mario is quite good, and it’s not as expensive at all,moreover the portions are larger than in other restaurants.
Passenger: Sounds great! Where is it?
Driver: It’s in Endell Street. You can take the underground and get off at Covent Garden.
Passenger: Okay. Thanks.
