  2016經典旅行英語美文欣賞篇一

For most people, they will choose to travel during holiday because they want to relieve themselves from the high pressure of work. However, it happens quite often that people often ran into traffic jams on the way to travel. Some people think that we can relax ourselves by traveling no matter of how many people there. Some people would rather to stay in home than going out to travel because they think there are too many people swarm into the scenic spots. In my point of view, I would rather to stay indoors rather than going out to travel. Reasons are listed below.

對於許多人來說,都會選擇假期去旅遊,因爲他們想要從巨大的工作壓力中解放自己。但是,在去旅遊的路上遇到交通堵塞的事情經常發生。一些人認爲不管有多少 人,我們還是可以通過旅遊來放鬆自己。一些人情願呆在家裏也不遠出去旅遊,因爲他們覺得旅遊景點的人太多了。就我看來,我情願呆在家裏也不遠走出去旅遊。 原因如下:

Firstly, during holiday, so many people swarm into the travel spots that we can’t enjoy ourselves to the full. For most people, they want to travel because during holiday, they can have several days to relieve themselves by traveling. However, so many people crowd together will make their tour lose the original fun.

第一,在假期期間,太多的人聚集在旅遊景點,我們不能玩的很進行。對於很多人來說,他們想要在假期旅遊因爲他們在假期的時候纔有幾天的時間來放鬆自己。但是,太多的人擁擠在一起,就會失去旅遊的本身的樂趣。

Secondly, during holiday, price will be rising drastically. It is known to all that you need to spend much more to buy things or taking bus or any other transportation since many retailers will raise goods’ price during this holiday to get fat profits.

第二,在假期期間,物價會大幅上漲。衆所周知,你需要支付更多的錢來買東西或坐車或者乘坐其他的交通工具,因爲很多的商家會在此期間通過擡高物價來獲取豐厚的利潤。

All in all, travel during holiday is not a good choice for us since its inconvenience in traveling among a huge crowd of people and also the dramatically high price for goods and transportations will let us pay extra money.

總之, 在假期旅遊並不是一個好的選擇。不僅是因爲在旅遊的時候穿梭於人羣中會很不方便,而且也因爲假期期間的物價及交通費用會飛漲而讓我們多支付額外費用。

出國旅遊季 盤點各個國家的免費福利

From mineral water to water slides, things that are free in some countries often cost in others, sometimes much to the surprise of travellers venturing out of their homeland.

從礦泉水到滑水道,有些東西在其他國家通常都要收費,但在某些國家卻是免費的,這種福利有時候會讓外國遊客喜出望外。

Northern India and Pakistan

印度北部和巴基斯坦

Pretty much every grocery shop in this part of the world offers a free and generous side of fresh coriander and green chillies, common local ingredients in curries and chutneys.

在世界的這個角落,幾乎每家雜貨店都會免費提供新鮮胡荽和綠辣椒,要多少給多少,這在當地是做咖喱和酸辣醬的常見佐料。

"In most of northern India… dhaniya-mirch (coriander and chillies) is synonymous with groceries," said Khusrau Gurganvi from Varanasi. So much so that he explained that "Kal dhaniya-mirch lana hai" translates into "I need to buy groceries tomorrow."

“在印度北部的大部分地區,胡荽和綠辣椒和雜貨同義。”印度瓦臘納西的Khusrau Gurganvi說道。

An anonymous answerer echoed the perk within Pakistan. "Whenever you go to buy vegetables, the shopkeeper will give you a handful of free coriander and green chilli," the person said. "If they don't, then all you have to do is ask."

一位匿名用戶表示,巴基斯坦也有此福利。“無論什麼時候你去買蔬菜,店主都會給你一把免費的胡荽和綠辣椒。如果店主沒給,你管他要就是了。”

India

印度

Not every free thing mentioned was a physical object. It seems that in India, people enjoy an unlimited supply of advice.

本文所提到的免費福利不只侷限於實物。在印度,人們似乎能得到無窮無盡的建議。

"In other countries, there are wedding planners. Here, we have aunts, uncles, uncle's uncles to give us advice for free," said Mehul Manot from Calcutta. "In other countries, there are counsellors. Here, we have the ever-poking neighbours: 'You shouldn't take up Arts, it's for girls. Do engineering, you'll earn lakhs per month.'"

加爾各答的Mehul Manot說:“在其他國家有婚禮策劃師。在我們國家,有七大姑八大姨,叔叔伯伯舅舅會免費給我們建議。在其他國家,有諮詢師。在我們國家,有喜歡指手畫腳的鄰居告訴我們:‘你不該學藝術,那是女孩們學的。你該學工程學,這樣你的月薪纔會高。’”

He added that travel agents are replaced by jet-setting cousins, and trendy friends step in for fashion consultants.

他補充說,旅行社代理商的位置被乘噴氣客機到處旅遊的有錢表兄取代,時髦的朋友們給你充當免費的時尚顧問。

Advice doesn't always have to come from just friends and family, either.

在印度,不只是親友會給你建議。

"In other countries, you need to pay for consultations, but in India you can get it free of cost at tea stalls, [during] marriages or family functions, [on] trains, buses by almost anyone," said Kanchan Saxena, who currently lives in the United States. "We love giving advice."

“在其他國家,你諮詢需要花錢,但在印度你可以在茶水攤、婚禮、家族聚會、火車、公交車上向幾乎任何人免費諮詢,” 現居美國的Kanchan Saxena 說,“印度人就是喜歡給別人建議。”

United States

美國

Fast food may have originated in the US, but the free condiments that generously accompany meals haven't always translated to their counterparts overseas.

快餐也許發源於美國,但美國快餐店免費無限量供應的調料卻沒有隨着快餐一起傳播到其他國家。

American Jon Baldwin experienced this first hand when visiting a McDonald’s drive-through in the United Kingdom and noticed his bag of food was conspicuously missing the typical sauce packets.

美國人喬恩?鮑德溫在英國的一家麥當勞汽車餐廳第一次體會到了這一點。他注意到他的快餐裏面赫然不見了在美國標配的調料包。

"Excuse me, you forgot the ketchup," he told the server.

他告訴服務員:“對不起,你忘記給我番茄醬了。”

"Instead of reaching for ketchup packets, she starts typing away on the cash register: 50p."

“但是,服務員沒有伸手去拿番茄醬,而是開始在收銀機上打上:50美分。”

To make matters worse, the 50p went toward just a single ketchup packet. "In the US, not only do they not charge for ketchup, they hand you like 10 packets when you ask. Literally a fist full of ketchup.

更糟的是,50美分只能買一小包番茄醬。“在美國,番茄醬不但不收費,而且你向服務員要的話,他們會給你10包左右。也就是一大把番茄醬。”

Dave Holmes-Kinsella vouched for the fact that his American wife "was driven into fits of rage by the capricious condiment tax" in his native New Zealand, especially since salt and sugar sides come free.

戴夫?福爾摩斯-金賽拉擔保說這是真的,他的美國妻子在他的家鄉新西蘭時,“因爲難以捉摸的調料稅大爲光火”,尤其在鹽和糖都免費的情況下。

Singapore

新加坡

A different kind of condiment is given away in abundance in this small nation.

新加坡這個小國免費給予另一種調料。

"We have unlimited, free access to chilli sauce in any fast food restaurant and any food court," said native Joseph Lee. "We literally eat anything and everything with chilli sauce, from the iconic chicken rice to McDonald’s hamburgers."

新加坡人約瑟夫?李說:“我們在任何快餐店和美食廣場都可以免費無限量地獲得辣椒醬。我們幾乎吃所有東西都要放辣椒醬,從標誌性的新加坡雞飯到麥當勞的漢堡。”

In fact, McDonald’s even makes a "garlic chilli sauce" that’s exclusive to the heat-loving Singapore market.

事實上,麥當勞甚至專門爲嗜辣的新加坡人定製了“蒜蓉辣椒醬”。

Australia

澳大利亞

To accompany Australia's great outdoors, the country offers plenty of free things to enjoy outside.

搭配絕妙的戶外活動,澳大利亞還有許多可在戶外享受的事物。

"Many public parks and national parks have free barbeque hot plates," said Christopher Mardell from Adelaide. "You bring meat and whatever else you want to cook, push a button to start it up and away you go. After 20 minutes or so, they turn off automatically, so you push the button again." All visitors have to do is keep it clean, and Mardell said most people follow this etiquette.

來自阿德萊德的克里斯托弗?馬德爾說:“許多公園和國家公園都提供免費的燒烤電爐。你帶着肉類和其他任何你想燒烤的食物,按下爐子開關,然後就可以走開。約20分鐘後,烤爐就自動關了,你就再按下開關。”所有的使用者都要保持器具的乾淨。馬德爾表示,大多數人都能遵守這一規矩。

In the Northern Territory, residents can enjoy a unique respite from the heat.

而北領地的居民們則用一種獨特的方式來緩解炎熱。

"As the waters are croc infested, residents can cool down by using free water slides," said Jane M, originally from England. Leanyer Recreation Park in Darwin is just one example, with three large water slides (including a 124m-long raft ride) and a water playground and pool – all completely free.

原本來自英格蘭的簡說:“因爲很多水域都有鱷魚出沒,居民們會選擇免費的滑水道降溫。” 比如北領地首府達爾文市的林依爾休閒公園就擁有三座大型滑水道(包括一個124米長的漂流水道),還有水上樂園和泳池。——這些都是免費的。

Slovakia

斯洛伐克

Tap water might be free in some countries, but true mineral water usually comes at a premium. Not so in Slovakia, where mineral springs are everywhere.

自來水在一些國家可能免費,但真正的礦泉水常常售價高昂。不過在斯洛伐克卻並非如此,那裏的礦泉遍地都是。

"Every region has a number of mineral water sources that are open to the public and free to drink," said Juraj Spisak, who currently lives in Brussels. "Mineral springs in Slovakia each have a particular taste. Some are more sulphuric, others are rich in manganese or iron."

現今住在布魯塞爾的尤拉伊?斯匹薩克說:“每個地區都有一些礦泉資源是向公衆開放的,並且可免費飲用。斯洛伐克的每一眼礦泉都有獨特的滋味,有的含硫磺多一些,其他的則富含錳或者鐵。”

While it's still possible to buy water in shops, it's common for residents to refill their own bottles at the local springs.

儘管商店裏也可以買到水,居民們通常會在當地的泉眼把瓶子重新裝滿。

Norway

挪威

In this Scandinavian country, very specific laws keep nature – and the enjoyment of it – free for all.

這個斯堪的納維亞國家有着明確的法律維護自然和享受自然的權利,那就是面向所有人免費。

"We have a set of laws known as the 'Freedom to roam', or actually in a more literal translation as 'Everyman’s right’," said Eivind Kj?rstad.

愛文德說:“我們有一套被稱爲‘自由漫步’的法律,或者確切來講,可更直接地翻譯爲‘每個人的權利’。”

These allow residents to have free movement on roads, rivers and lakes; to forage for berries, mushrooms and wildflowers; and to camp overnight -– as long as its 150m from the nearest building.

法律允許居民在道路、河流和湖泊自由活動;去採集漿果、蘑菇和野花;去野營過夜——只要和最近建築物的距離達到150米。

"We divide land into 'innmark' and 'utmark', which literally translates to ‘infield’ and ‘outfield’," explained Kj?rstad. "The distinction is that 'innmark' is cultivated and actively used land such as gardens, fields, parks and roads. 'Utmark' is everything else; mountains, forests, moorland, tundra, swamps, beaches, lakes and rivers."

愛文德解釋說:“我們將土地劃分爲‘inmark’和‘utmark’,直譯過來是‘內野’和‘外野’。其區別就在於‘內野’是有在耕種的、被積極使用的土地,比如花園、田地、公園和道路。而‘外野’就是此外的一切,高山、森林、荒野、苔原、沼澤、海灘、湖泊還有河流。”

The nature laws apply to anyone anywhere in the utmark, even if the land is privately owned.

有關自然的法律在“外野”適用於所有人和所有地方,即使這片土地是私人所有也不例外。

On Dishonesty in Tourism

Since 1980s, the economy of China has developed greatly. With more money in their pockets, people are spending more money on travelling, which has brought prosperity to tourism. Nevertheless, many travel agencies or agents are reported to cheat their customers and make money in a dishonest way.

The reason for dishonesty in tourism is various. First and for most, money is the spur. Some travel agencies use all means to cheat their customers in order to get more money. Secondly, to survive in the fierce competition, travel agencies have to make enough profits. To realize profit maximization, they cheat. Last but not least, their victims seem to have little sense of defending their rights.

To regulate travel agencies and protect the rights of tourists, the government has issued various laws. However, I think tourists can take the following tips to avoid travel scams. First, choose a trustworthy travel agency for your trip. Secondly, use your common sense and keep alert while travelling. Finally, defend yourself if your rights are violated.

參考譯文:

自1980年代以來,中國的經濟發生了巨大的變化。更多的錢在他們的口袋裏,人們花更多的錢旅行,給旅遊業帶來了繁榮。然而,據報道,許多旅行社或代理欺騙他們的客戶和不誠實的方式賺錢。

旅遊業是各種的不誠實的原因。首先,對大多數人來說,錢是刺激。一些旅行社使用一切手段來欺騙顧客爲了得到更多的錢。其次,在激烈的生存競爭,旅行社必須賺到足夠的利潤。爲了實現利潤最大化,他們作弊。最後但並非最不重要,受害者似乎沒有捍衛自己的權利。

規範旅行社和保護遊客的權利,政府頒佈了各種法律。然而,我認爲遊客可以採取下面的建議,避免旅遊陷阱。首先,選擇一個值得信賴的旅行社爲您的旅行。其次,用你的常識和旅行時保持清醒。最後,爲自己辯護是否侵犯了你的權利。
