3.旅游英语:入乡随俗必知的五大禁忌
Cultural practices, cultural differences, local manners, and mores: traveling the globe can be a behavioral minefield, even when you have the best intentions. Everything from greeting to eating can be an opportunity to do the wrong thing, and not only embarass yourself, but offend your host countrymen. Look out for the following cultural mistakes and try to avoid them while going abroad.
文化习惯、文化差异、当地礼仪和风俗:即使你怀着良好的意愿,这些文化陷阱也可能让你的环球旅游险象环生。从问候到饮食,稍不留神就会出差错,不仅让自己难堪,还有可能冒犯东道主。到国外时要特别留心并尽量避免误入以下几种文化陷阱。
(一)Touching Someone
触摸他人
Where It’s Offensive: Korea, Thailand, China, Europe, the Middle East.
禁忌地:韩国、泰国、欧洲、中东
What’s Offensive
禁忌:
Personal space varies as you travel the globe. In Mediterranean countries, if you refrain from touching someone’s arm when talking to them or if you don’t greet them with kisses or a warm embrace, you’ll be considered cold. But backslap someone who isn’t a family member or a good friend in Korea, and you’ll make them uncomfortable. In Thailand, the head is considered sacred--never even pat a child on the head.
个人空间的概念因地而异。在地中海国家,如果你和别人交谈时没有碰对方的手臂,或见面问候时没和对方亲吻拥抱,别人会认为你不热情。但在韩国,拍别人的背会让对方感觉不安,除非此人是你的家庭成员或好友。在泰国,头是很神圣的部位——就算是小孩子的头也不要随便乱拍。
What You Should Do Instead
对策:
Observe what locals are doing and follow suit. In Eastern countries remember that touching and public displays of affection are unacceptable. In places like Qatar and Saudi Arabia, men and women are forbidden from interacting, let along touching
观察当地人的一举一动并照着做。记住,在东方国家,身体接触或在公众场合流露感情往往不被人接受。在卡塔尔和沙特阿拉伯这样的地方,男女交往都被禁止,更不要说身体接触了。
(二)Blowing Your Nose
擤鼻涕
Where It’s Offensive: Japan, China, Saudi Arabia, France.
禁忌地:日本、沙特阿拉伯、法国
What’s Offensive
禁忌:
Some cultures find it disgusting to blow your nose in public--especially at the table. The Japanese and Chinese are alsorepelled by the idea of a handkerchief.
有些文化认为当众擤鼻涕是让人厌恶的行为——尤其在餐桌上。日本人还排斥使用手帕。
What You Should Do Instead
对策:
If traveling through Eastern and Asian countries, leave the hankies at home and opt fordisposable tissues instead. In France as well as in Eastern countries, if you’re dining and need to clear your nasal passages, excuse yourself and head to the restroom. Worst-case scenario: make an exaggerated effort to steer away from the table. Let’s hope you don’t have a cold.
到东方或亚洲国家旅游时,把手帕留在家中,选择用一次性纸巾吧!在法国以及一些东方国家,如果在就餐过程中你需要擤鼻涕,要先说声“请原谅”再去洗手间。最糟糕的情景是:极为夸张地从餐桌上扭过头去擤鼻涕。还是祈祷自己不要感冒吧!
(三)Talking Over Dinner
就餐时谈话
Where It’s Offensive: Africa, Japan, Thailand, China, Finland.
禁忌地:非洲、日本、泰国、芬兰
What’s Offensive
禁忌:
In some countries, like China, Japan, and some African nations, the food’s the thing, so don’t start chatting about your day’s adventures while everyone else is digging into dinner. You’ll likely be met with silence--not because your group is unfriendly, but because mealtimes are for eating, not talking. Also avoid conversations in places a country might consider sacred or reflective--churches in Europe, temples in Thailand, and saunas in Finland.
在日本和一些非洲国家,吃饭就是吃饭,所以当其他人都在大快朵颐时,不要谈论你当天的经历。你可能会遭遇沉默——这并非你的同伴不友好,而是因为就餐时间只应吃饭,无需交谈。也要避免在一些被认为是神圣或需要沉思的地方谈话——比如欧洲的教堂、泰国的庙宇和芬兰的桑拿浴室。
What You Should Do Instead
对策:
Keep quiet!
保持沉默!
(四)Removing Your Shoes…or Not
脱鞋.....与否
Where It’s Offensive: Hawaii, the South Pacific, Korea, China, Thailand.
禁忌地:夏威夷、太平洋群岛、韩国、泰国
What’s Offensive
禁忌:
Take off your shoes when arriving at the door of a London dinner party and the hostess will find you uncivilized, but fail to remove your shoes before entering a home in Asia, Hawaii, or the Pacific Islands and you’ll be considered disrespectful. Not only does shoe removal very practically keeps sand and dirt out of the house, it’s a sign of leaving the outside world behind.
到伦敦人家里参加宴会时脱掉鞋子,女主人会认为你不文明,但去亚洲、夏威夷或太平洋群岛的居民家中不脱鞋却被认为失礼。脱掉鞋子不仅把沙粒与尘土留在了门外,更意味着把外面的世界抛之脑后。
What You Should Do Instead
对策:
If you see a row of shoes at the door, start undoing your laces. If not, keep the shoes on.
如果你在门口看到一排鞋子,就解开自己的鞋带。否则,就穿鞋进去吧!
(五)Knowing Your Right from Your Left
分清左右手
Where It’s Offensive: India, Morocco, Africa, the Middle East.
禁忌地:印度、非洲、中东
What’s Offensive
禁忌:
Many cultures still prefer to eat using traditional methods--their hands. In these cases, food is often offered communally, which is why it’s important to wash your hands before eating and observe the right-hand-is-for-eating and the left-hand-is-for-other-duties rule. If you eat with your left hand, expect your fellow diners to be mortified. And when partaking from a communal bowl, stick to a portion that’s closest to you. Do not get greedy and plunge your hand into the center.
许多文化依然推崇传统的进食方式——用手吃。在这种情况下,食物往往是众人一起分享的,因此饭前洗手很重要,而且要遵守用右手吃东西的习俗(左手往往有其他用途)。如果你用左手吃,同伴会感觉蒙受羞辱。当大家一起从公共的碗里取食时,就吃离你最近的那部分吧,不要贪婪地把手伸向饭碗中央。
What You Should Do Instead
对策:
Left-handed? Attempt to be ambidextrous--even children who are left-handed in these cultures are taught to eat with their right hand--or at least explain yourself to your fellow diners before plunging in.
你是左撇子吗?还是努力让自己的双手都灵巧吧——在这些文化里,即使是左撇子的孩子也被教会用右手吃饭——或者至少吃饭前向同伴解释一下。
Once you are on the ground of a different country, remain highly sensitive to native behavior. Never be completely surprised by anything; try to take it in stride, and don’t feel offended if something seems offensive--like queue jumping. After all, this is a global village, and we are all very different.
一旦你踏上异国的土地,就要对当地人的一举一动高度敏感。千万不要大惊小怪,尽量使自己泰然自若,对一些看似无礼的行为也不要恼火——比如插队。毕竟,我们生活在一个地球村,不同的文化构成了我们共同的家园。

10.旅行英语:异国他乡怎么问路?
1. Take the one-way street.
走这条单行道。
One-way street就是单行道。尤其在Downtown地区,以亚特兰大和纽奥良为例,其复杂的程度可以用进的去,出不来来形容,实在不是个愉快的开车经验。
2. You will stay on the street for a while until you hit the first traffic light.
你会走一会儿,直到你遇到第一个红绿灯。
Stay for a while 通常指五到十分钟的时间,不会太久。遇见某样东西,可以用hit 这个字,如hit the traffic light, hit the stop sign 等等。而traffic light 也有人说成light,或stoplight。
3. Then take a left.
向左转。
向左转可以说成turn left,take a left 或是Make a left。有时光讲take a left 不明确,你可以加上路名,明确地告诉人家要转哪一条路,例如Take a left into Hemphill Ave。或是Take a left onto Hemphill Ave。
4. It will be Hemphill Ave. It’s two-lane traffic.
那就会是Hemphill Ave,它是一条双线道。
指路的时候如果能够说出街道名称是最好,所以通常我会把转到哪一条路的路名也指出来。至于是几线道一般指路的时候则比较不会提及。双线道是指来去各一个车道共二线道而言,四线道就是four-lane traffic。像亚特兰大的Interstate Highway 有些地方都是十二线道,那就是twelve-lane traffic 够惊人吧。
5. Come down Hemphill Ave about five blocks.
由Hemphill 街往下走约五个街区。
英文这个部份跟中文有异曲同工之妙,我们会习惯地说,往"下" 走,英文也会说come "down" 或是get "down",这里如果只说Come Hemphill Ave听来是不是怪怪的?至于block 指的是一块一块的建筑,外国人在指路时很喜欢用block 作为计量的单位。
6. You will see a BP gas station on your left.
在你的左手边你会看到一座BP加油站。
指路的时候除了路名之外,明显的地标也是有帮助的。通常你可以指出一些明显的建筑物或是加油站来帮助对方。加油站的英文是gas station,有时会简称station。
7. Keep going 50 yards before you come to a fork road.
继续走50码,直到你走到一个三叉路口。
继续往下走可以用keep going这个字,或是continue straight 或是keep straight也很常用。Fork road就是我们说的三叉路口。那如果是丁字路口要怎么说?你可以说,This road will dead end into 10th Street. 就可以表达出丁字路口的意思了。
8. Make a right, pass two stop signs and you will run into a Wal Mart.
向右转,经过两个Stop sign,你就会遇到Wal Mart。
老美喜欢说You’ll run into it! 意思就是,你会遇到的。You can’t miss it! 就是说,你绝不会错过的。
9. The post office is just right across the street of it.
邮局就在Wal Mart的正对面。
Right across the street of it 是个很重要的短语,加上"right" across 表示出"正" 对面的意思。还有一个很常用的就是在什么什么的旁边,这个要用The office is next to it. It 代表之前已经提过的Wal Mart,如果之前没有提及,这里也可以直接说成,across the street of Wal Mart。
10. Mr. Yang’s house is behind the post office.
杨先生的房子就在邮局后面。

旅行英语:国外住饭店 哪些小费需要付?
Hotel workers depend on tips to augment their usually small salaries. Rather than being annoyed at having to tip the doorman who greets you, consider it part of the cost of travel and be prepared with the dollar bills you will need to hand out before you even get to your room.
饭店的工作人员主要靠小费来增加他(她)们平时微薄的收入。请不要为需要向迎接你的门卫支付小费感到不平,应该把它看作是旅游消费的一部分,并在进入饭店之前就做好准备随时掏出钞票。
Doormen
门卫
Depending on the amount of luggage, tip $ 1 to $ 2 to the doorman who takes your bags and turns them over to a bellman. If you are visiting and have no luggage, you naturally do not tip him for simply opening the door for you. Tip him again when you leave with your luggage as he takes it from the bellman and assists you in loading it in your car or into your taxi. When the doorman obtains a taxi for you, tip him $1 to $3 (the higher amount if he must stand in the rain for a period of time to get it).
给门卫的小费数目取决于行李的多少,对于为你拿行李并把它递给行李员的门卫,需要付给1至2美元。如果你没有行李,通常就不必为开门这样简单的服务付费。当你带着行李准备离开饭店,门卫从行李员手中接过行李并帮你把它放入你的车子或出租车里时,你还应该付给他小费。当门卫为你叫了一辆出租车时,你应该付他1至3美元(如果他为了叫辆出租车而不得不在雨中站着时,你的小费应该给得更多些)。
Bellman
行李员
Tip $1 a bag but not less than $2 to the bellman who carries or delivers your luggage to your room. When the bellman does something special for you, such as make a purchase or bring something you have requested to your room, but not room service deliveries, he or she should be tipped $ 2 to $ 3 for every service, at the time it is provided.
一个行李包要付1美元的小费,但对于把行李送到客房的行李员要付给2元以上的小费。当行李员为你做了一些特殊的事情,比如替你购物或把你需要的东西送到客房(但不属于客房服务范畴)等,他应该得到2至3美元的小费。
Maid
清理房间的女服务员
For stays of one night or more, the maid should be tipped $2 per night per person in a large hotel; $ 1 per night per person in a less expensive hotel. Give the maid her tip in person, if she can be found. If not, put it in a sealed envelope marked "chambermaid".
在一个较大、较豪华的饭店,清理房间的女服务员每人每天应得到2美元的小费;档次次之的饭店的服务员每人每天可得1美元小费。你可以亲自给她们小费,也可以把钱装在信封里封好,上面写明"送给清理房间的服务员"。
Valet
清洗、熨烫衣服的服务员
Valet services are added to your bill, so there is no need to tip for pressing or cleaning when items are left in your room. If you are in when your cleaning and pressing is delivered, however, tip $ 1 for the delivery for one or two items, more when several items are being delivered.
清洗、熨烫衣服的服务费用被加到你的帐单中,因此如果在你外出的时候衣服放在房间内,你就无需付小费。如果服务员送衣服时你在房间,可以为他们的送衣服务付1美元,如果衣服较多就应付更多的小费。
Dining room staff
餐厅服务员
Tips for dining room staff are exactly the same as they are in any other restaurant -15 to 18 percent except in the most elegant dining rooms where tips are 18 to 20 percent. If you are staying in an American -plan hotel where your meals are included in your total bill, tips are as usual, and an additional tip should be given to the maitre d' who has taken care of you during your stay. This tip ranges anywhere from $ 10 to $ 15 for a weekend for a family or group of four people to $ 20 to $ 30 for a longer stay or larger group.
付给饭店餐厅服务员的小费数目与其他餐馆服务员所得小费的数目不相上下,都是15-18%,而一些非常豪华、档次最高的餐厅小费要高达18-20%。如果你入住的饭店是餐费已包含于总帐单的美式饭店,小费还是15-18%,且要直接付给那位从头至尾一直服侍你的服务员。如果一个家庭或一行四人要在此饭店住一星期的话,他们付出的小费从10美元至15美元不等,而在住宿的时间更长或人数更多的情况下,小费要达到20美元甚至30美元之多。
【沪江小编】付给服务人员小费,是表达对他们的服务的认可和感谢。在国外,支付小费已经形成了一些惯例,需要我们入乡随俗,多加注意。了解通常的服务标准小费额度,并且为额外的服务增加小费,一般就不会出现问题啦!
