B
After I made it to the city center,I started to feel it might be easy for a foreigner
to deal with the great size of Beijing.With growing confidence,I decided to take the
subway to the hotel,not realizing that the network didn't go that far.Impressed with
the cleanliness of the station,I bought a ticket and boarded the first subway that came
along.
After a few minutes I asked in English a young man seated next to me where I
should get off closest to the Friendship Hotel.Wearing a smart business suit and tie,
he would surely speak English,wouldn't he Unfortunately,he couldn't understand
me but seemed very friendly.I showed him the room card with all the information of
the Friendship Hotel in Chinese characters ()He looked at it,and then his eyes
moved quickly to the carriage (subway map.Next,he raised three fingers of
his right hand.
In Australia,raising fingers at someone is not usually nice,but this man wasn't
smiling.At the next station he showed me two fingers.Now in Australia,that's really
rude,but I got the message.When we stopped at the third station,he didn't just point
to the door,but got up,took me out of the train,and led me to the top of the stairs,and
out onto the street.Then he stopped a taxi and told the driver where to take me.
All this came from a man who couldn't speak my language,and I couldn't speak
his.I was now speechless,especially when he refused my offer of money.I felt a little
embarrassed having even thought he would accept a tip.
This experience made it clear I had to learn some Chinese quickly or my
adventures might start turning into misadventures.
