第19章 Booking Tickets订票

You are the greatest enemy if you are a coward, but if you are brave, you are your greatest friend.

Booking Tickets

A:Hello, Mr.Wang.

C:Thank you for your brochures. Weve made our decision.

A:Good news. Then which one do you choose?

C:Oh, not the ones you recommended. My wife and I decide to tour Beijing.Anyway, Beijing is the capital of China, and isnt there the saying that “if one hasnt been to China, he or she has not been to the East;if one hasnt been to Beijing, he or she has not been to China”?

如果你是胆小鬼,你就是自己最大的敌人;如果你是勇敢者,你就是自己最好的朋友。
