Take a good look at your map." The agent looked at the map again and said,"Are you talking about Buffalo,otherwise known as Buffalo?" The woman said,"Yes,I knew it was a large animal."

文化小贴士
旅游业的发达促进了旅行社的发展，那么中西方的旅行社有什么差异呢？以中国为代表的东方国家的旅行社主要针对人们的旅游心理和消费心理推出旅游项目，盈利主要依靠游客的消费，而旅游团的费用并不那么高昂。与之相比，西方人更喜欢自驾游或者半自驾，鉴于此，西方的旅行社的接待人群没有国内多，所以他们的旅游团费用较高，一些为期一周的徒步团和露营团的费用甚至要上千美元。如果想跟旅行社在美国旅行，一定要找当地真正的旅游公司,比如纽约本地的纵横或天马旅游公司，会真正带游客游览风景，而且没有多余的收费项目。
中西方的旅行社在某些地方是相似的，比如很多国内外的旅行社都提供线上线下出售机票、预订酒店等服务，还有托运行李和租车服务等。但是国外的旅行社有很强的针对性，比如：有些旅行社是针对青年人的，有些旅行社是针对某个著名景点的等等。

每个国家的护照都不相同，但是全球所有国家的护照只有四种颜色，你知道吗？世界上的200多个国家和地区的护照分别采用了红色、蓝色、绿色和黑色这四种颜色。护照封皮上的颜色都是这四种颜色，但是大多数国家的护照都是以红色和蓝色为主的，而且颜色的使用也会受到政治、地理和宗教的影响。
红加勒比海地区的国家基本都用蓝色护照，关税同盟如巴西、阿根廷、巴拉圭等也以蓝色为主，而大家之所以以为蓝色护照是最高级的主要是因为美国的护照也是蓝色的。红色主要是欧盟成员国或是想加入欧盟的国家使用的。中国、新加坡、日本等也采用红色护照。穆斯林国家的护照基本上都是绿色的，因为绿色对于伊斯兰是很重要的颜色。西非国家经济共同体也是绿色的护照。黑色耐脏，目前世界上只有博茨瓦纳、赞比亚和新西兰在使用。而黑色更是新西兰的国色。

如果你要去国外旅行，那么如何收拾行李呢？这里做一下简单的介绍。如果你要去英国旅行，那么就要多带一些春秋季休闲服装，因为英国的四季没有很大的差别。当然，你最好还要带雨具，如雨衣和雨伞。如果你在冬天去英国，那么太厚重的衣服就不必携带了，因为英国的冬天不是很冷。如果你要去南半球的澳大利亚旅行，就要考虑一下南北半球相反的季节问题，比如北半球是冬季，南半球就是夏季。鉴于英国和澳大利亚的电池和眼镜都比国内贵，你可以自行购买再携带过去，但是其他的日化用品在这两个国家就比较优惠了。出门旅行，最令人担忧的问题就是疾病问题，你可以随身携带一些感冒药和发烧药，这样既可以让你免去在国外找不到药店的尴尬，也可以帮助你及时预防病情或缓解病情。

cosmetic [k?z'met?k] n. 化妆品
inspection [?n'spek?n] n. 检查
confiscate ['k?nf?ske?t] v. 没收
推敲细节
①take away有“减掉，拿开”的意思，在这里指的是将过多的行李减掉一部分。take off也有“去掉”的意思，但指的是“脱掉（衣服）”。
②mint除了有“薄荷”的意思外，还有“大量钱”的意思，所以worth a mint可译为“价值不菲”。还可以用cost a lot和be of high value来表示“价值不菲”。
③It is said to...意为“据说……”，表示某种听说的并不完全肯定的情况，但是其描述的情况一般是真实的。It is said to相当于It is said that，区别在于前者接动词原形，后者接句子。
④be ignorant about意为“对……一无所知”，相当于know nothing about和don't know anything about。
⑤Why?有两种主要用法：一、意为“为什么？”表示对某种情况不解，询问原因；二、意为“哎呀！”表示震惊。
译文
A：简，你的行李太多了，何不拿掉一些呢？
B：我知道，但我们是为期十天的长途旅行，所以需要很多行李的。
A：恐怕你的行李需要办理托运。这是你的相机吗？看上去价值不菲呢。
B：是的，我爸爸给我买的，据说是5000美金呢。
A：出境须知规定价值3000美金以上的贵重物品需要向海关申报。
B：我不知道啊。我对出境须知一无所知。
A：我对出境须知简直是倒背如流。你确定要带这个相机吗？
B：去申报太麻烦了，我就不带了。
A：还有啊，你的这些液体化妆品最好也别带了。
B：为什么？
A：根据出境须知，这些液体物品的检查非常严格，甚至可能会被没收。
B：好吧。

文化小贴士
入境美国的繁杂手续让人疲累，相信大多数人会以此类推美国的出境手续也是如此复杂。恰恰相反，美国的出境手续是超出人们想象的简单。通常只需要在登机口处盖一个章就行了。最近甚至连盖章这一步都省去了。
实际上，乘机离开美国的出境手续并不算是最简单的，比如步行或开车离开美国是真正的非常简单。与美国接壤的南北两个国家是墨西哥和加拿大，麻烦一点的是墨西哥，离开美国的唯一程序就是需要走过一个像老旧地铁站一样的闸门，进入闸门，推转90度，你就离开了美国。虽然离开美国进入墨西哥不需要办理任何手续，但这是基于法律制度而存在的。这种法律制度的基点在于：美国已经对入境者进行了检查并给予了信任，那么美国和墨西哥的边境就无需再办理繁琐的出镜手续了。从美国离开去加拿大可直接从陆地上无障碍穿行，曾经甚至有人提议将美国和加拿大合并，由此可知两个国家相连的紧密性。

精彩对话
A: Corky,where are you going to travel?

A: But I hear it often rains in Britain. It's not good for travel,right?

A: It seems that you are fully prepared. May you a nice trip!
B: Thank you!
单词释义
obvious ['?bv??s] a. 明显的
gear [g??(r)] n. 装备，齿轮
推敲细节
①You have a point here.意为“你说的没错/你说到了点子上。”表示赞同某人对某事的看法。但是You're right.比You have a point here.更加常用。
②flat tire的意思是“瘪的轮胎”，have a flat tire是引申用法，表示“运气不好，倒霉”，相当于be unlucky和luck is on the ebb。
③the same as意为“像……一样的，同样的”，表示的不是同一个事物，也有as the same as的用法，意为“和……一样”。the same... that则表示的是同一个事物。
④Sounds great.其实是It sounds great.的缩写形式，习惯上会将it省略。sound在这里是系动词，和taste,smell,feel的用法相似。
⑤prepare for the worst意为“做最坏的打算”，相当于do the worst。而make the worst of作“做最坏的打算”解时，其后要接宾语。

想不想出国旅行呢？想去意大利旅行就要先了解那里的天气情况。意大利的大部分地区都属于亚热带地中海气候，一年四季都适合旅游，而每年的5月到10月之间是旺季，但是4月到6月却是意大利天气最好的时间段。
冬季，在意大利的米兰和博洛尼亚常伴有大雾和雪。而西北部的利古里亚区则因为山地和海水的影响而拥有宜人的气候。在夏季的时候，最好不要去两个城市旅行，即撒丁区和威尼斯。撒丁区的夏季非常拥挤，这是因为撒丁区拥有令人赞叹不绝的沙滩和清澈的海水以及城市气息不太厚重的氛围。作为最闻名的旅游胜地之一，威尼斯在夏季时拥有最多的游客，这也得益于其“水上城市”的称号。
柬埔寨是一个东南亚国家，属于热带气候，每年的11月到第二年的4月是来此旅游的最佳季节。要避免在雨季前往柬埔寨，因为那时柬埔寨内多洪水，安全性不高。
