        The worst tourist(旅行者) in the world may be Nicholas Scottie of San Francisco. Once he flew from the US to his hometown in Italy. He had some trouble on his journey. The night before, he stayed up late to deal with some e-mails, so when he boarded the plane he decided to have a sleep. Hours later, he was woken up by some noise and he found the plane had landed.

        As he thought he had arrived home, Mr Scottie got off the plane. He thought he was in Rome. However, the truth was that the plane made a one-hour stop to get oil at John F. Kennedy International Airport of New York.

        Mr Scottie waited at the airport for some while, but nobody was there to meet him. He thought maybe they were held up by heavy traffic which was very common in Rome. He decided to give his family a phone call. Unfortunately, he found he had left his cellphone at the hotel in San Francisco. Therefore, he decided to go home by himself. While he was walking in the city, Mr Scottie found that the old “Rome" had changed a lot. Many old buildings were replaced by high modern ones. He also found that many people spoke English instead of Italian and that many street signs were written in English. What made him most surprised was that drivers' awareness of traffic safety was improved and he hardly found any driver speeding on the road. All cars were driving in line. The condition was widely different from that in the past. He was feeling proud.

        Mr Scottie knew very little English, so he asked a policeman (in Italian) the way to the bus station. He happened to meet a policeman who was also born in Italy and answered him in the same language. Mr Scottie thanked him, left, quickly found the bus station and got on a bus. He looked outside of the bus window.
