【迷你小對話】
A: Why are you so late today?
B: I was mugged getting on the train to come to work! Luckily, a wonderful man fought off my attacker and helped me buy my train ticket and then escorted me all the way here. He made pleasant conversation and was a perfect gentleman. He was the most chivalric I’ve ever met.
