Using the Yellow Pages By Patti Hutchison

¹     "What's wrong?" Bill asked his friend Sue. He noticed she looked a little frazzled.
 
²     "My car broke down," Sue said. "I had to run to catch the bus to work."
 
³     "That's too bad," Bill said. "What are you going to do?"
 
⁴     "I need to find someone to fix it. Do you know a good mechanic?" asked Sue.
 
⁵     "I don't even have a car. I take the bus every day. But I can help you look for a mechanic in the phone book."
 
⁶     "Thanks, that would be great." She got the phone book out of her desk drawer. "I wouldn't know where to begin."
 
⁷     "Let's look in the yellow pages," Bill said.
 
⁸     "Why the yellow pages?" asked Sue.
 
⁹     "The yellow pages are a list of businesses that sell things or perform services. Since car repair is a service, you should look there," Bill told her.
 
¹⁰     "I usually only use the white pages," said Sue.
