Elizabeth Moodie works as a tourist information officer. She works in Marlow, a small town on the river Thames not far from London.
Mainly she is here to help people. They always want something and it’s her job to make sure that they get it.
Elizabeth helps some tourists.
Tourist 1: Are there any restaurants in Marlow where I can take my two children?
Elizabeth: In fact there are several. Turn right into Pound Street – let me show you. You are here. Go along Pound Street to these double roundabouts. Turn left to High Street and there are several restaurants and cafes on the left-hand side.
Tourist 2: I have an appointment at the Globe Park Business Estate. Could you tell me the way there?
Elizabeth: Right. You leave this car park and turn right. Let me show you on the map – it is probably easier. Follow that road. You will come to a large roundabout. Turn right again and the Globe Park will be on the right- hand side.
Tourist 3: Good afternoon. I’m looking for accommodation in the area.
Elizabeth: Yes, I see. Do you want a hotel or a guest house?
Tourist 3: A hotel would be fine.
Elizabeth: This leaflet will give you the information about the hotels in Marlow.
The river makes Marlow attractive to visitors. And the town is unspoilt. It has a very happy atmosphere and it’s peaceful, and I think that it’s important nowadays.

Elementary, My Dear Watson
one lovely evening, the detective Sherlock Holmes and his trusty friend Dr. Watson went on a camping trip. After having dinner and drinking a few glasses of wine, they became tired and went to sleep. A couple hours passed and Sherlock Holmes awoke, and shortly thereafter woke Dr. Watson as well. He said, «Watson, look up, and tell me what you see.»
Dr. Watson replied, «Well, sir, I see millions of stars in the sky.»
