i went out to see a film after supper. on my way to the cinema, i met an englishman named john, who had lost his way. i gave up the chance to see the film and took him to his hotel. while going there, i told him the great changes that had taken place here in the past few years and john told me something about his country.
though i had missed the film, i felt very happy, for i had not only helped john get out of trouble, but also practised my spoken english. if i had not worked hard at english, i would not have been able to help john.
