Atlas Wept
(I am teaching a travel and tourism class, I tell the class to pick a country from each continent and see if a visa is needed to enter the country)
Student: “Ma’am, do you have that other book?”
Me: “What other book?”
Student: “The one with the pictures of the continents and all the names of the countries. That one.”
Me: “Do you mean an atlas?”
(She did mean an atlas. This is the same student who thought New South Wales was in the UK.)
