   Jessica在北京学汉语,她的中国朋友要是遇到了不知道用美语怎么说的词,就会来请教她。今天是吴琼要问的:攻略。


  Jessica: Wuqiong, what are you doing on the computer? You've spent hours on the Internet!
  WQ: Jessica, 我下个月要去意大利,出门在外,不先看看旅游攻略怎么行?
  Jessica: 攻略?Are you going to attack Italy?
  WQ: 哪有! 旅游攻略就是去过那里的人写的心得体会,总结建议,这在美语里要怎么说呢?
  Jessica: I see. You were referring to travel tips. You are right, Wuqiong, flipping 1 through travel guide books and get some tips from the Internet can be really helpful, especially when it is your first trip to a new place.
  WQ: Yep! For example, I was just looking for ways to get discount on museum tickets, and some of the tips that people shared online came in really handy 2!
  Jessica: Make good use of the tips. They also help you avoid tourist traps 4!
  WQ: Tourist traps? 哦,就是旅行陷阱吧! 这个最烦人了,Tourist traps are annoying and can spoil 5 the whole trip!
  Jessica: So, Wuqiong, how long are you going to stay in Italy?
  WQ: 我当然希望可以慢慢走,慢慢看,仔细领略意大利的风景和文化,不过我假期有限,财力也有限,所以只有4天时间。
  Jessica: Four days only? So you are going to stay in one city?
  WQ: Actually I'm going to tour 4 cities and they are far away from each other.
  Jessica: I see. This is a whirlwind tour then.
  WQ: W-h-i-r-l-w-i-n-d, whirlwind 是旋风的意思,whirlwind tour 就是旋风旅游,也就是一阵风似的在很短的时间内去很多地方走马观花。唉,I can only afford a whirlwind tour right now. I really wish I had more time and money.
  Jessica: You will! Italy's not going anywhere. You can always go back someday!
  WQ: 今天我们学了,旅行攻略是 travel tips, 旅游陷阱是tourist trap 3, 旋风旅行则是 whirlwind tour.
