Understanding the Map
We are starting at point
①, which is located at the bottom-left corner of the map, just below the
MUSEUM and next to the
BOOK SHOP. The goal is to give directions from this starting point to two different locations: the
CAFÉ and the
TOY SHOP.
Let’s analyze each question.

##
Question 1: Where's the CAFÉ?
>
"Go straight on past the school, turn __________ at the shoe shop. Go straight, the café is on the left, __________ the pet shop."
Step-by-step path:
- Start at
①.
- Go
straight (upward) along the road.
- Pass the
SCHOOL.
- Continue to the
SHOE SHOP.
- At the
SHOE SHOP, you need to
turn right — because the
CAFÉ is located to the right of the shoe shop in the upper row.
- After turning right, go straight.
- The
CAFÉ is on the
left, and it's
next to or
beside the
PET SHOP (which is on the right).
So:
>
Go straight on past the school, turn *right* at the shoe shop. Go straight, the café is on the left, *next to* the pet shop.
✔ Answer:
1.
right
2.
next to

##
Question 2: Where's the TOY SHOP?
>
"Go straight on __________ the school, turn left at the __________. The toy shop is __________ the right, opposite the __________."
Step-by-step path:
- Start at
①.
- Go
straight upward (same direction as before).
- You will pass the
MUSEUM and then reach the
SCHOOL.
- Continue
past the school — so "go straight on
past the school".
- After passing the school, you reach the
BANK,
CLOTHES SHOP, and
CAFÉ on the top row.
- But the
TOY SHOP is on the far left, above the
BOOK SHOP.
- So after passing the school, you must
turn left at the
bank (because the
TOY SHOP is directly above the
BOOK SHOP, and the
BANK is to the right of the
BOOK SHOP).
- Turning left at the
BANK takes you up the street toward the
TOY SHOP.
- The
TOY SHOP is
on the right when you face that way.
- It is
opposite the
SUPERMARKET (since both are on the top row, one on the far left and one on the far right).
So:
>
Go straight on *past* the school, turn left at the *bank*. The toy shop is *on* the right, opposite the *supermarket*.
✔ Answer:
1.
past
2.
bank
3.
on
4.
supermarket

✔ Final Answers:
1. Excuse me, where's the CAFÉ, please?
Go straight on past the school, turn
right at the shoe shop. Go straight, the café is on the left,
next to the pet shop.
2. Excuse me, where's the TOY SHOP, please?
Go straight on
past the school, turn left at the
bank. The toy shop is
