本期節目話題背景

最近，有同學問了這樣一道題“Describe an occasion when you used a map (e.g. a paper map, an electronic map) that was useful”。既然說到這個話題，那我可得好好跟大家聊聊我那次在法國使用地圖的經歷。20年前我第一次去法國的時候，我還是一個小路癡。多虧了我在路邊自取的城市地圖，有效地幫我規避了走錯路的風險！而且還不止如此，有了地圖，我還發現了周邊不少的寶藏小店。想知道這趟旅行，地圖都帶我去向了哪裡嘛。那就和我一起往下聽聽吧~

如果你以爲地圖的用處只是探店的話，那可就大錯特錯了！有了地圖，我便可以搭乘公共交通，去探索屬於法國的浪漫。真的是太讚了！
