怎样在国外买机票

在国外买飞机票不是在机场买,要么是电话预订(reservation),要么是直接从各个旅行社购买。在国外预订机票的时间可长可短,长的可达一年以上,所以预订的机票一般都是openend,即未经确定的无限期机票,也就是说在机票上Status(订座情况)一栏是空白,在你决定出发日期的前几天,你必须到旅行社去重新确认(confirm)你的机票,这时旅行社将在你的机票Status一栏写上OK字样,此时你的机票才有效。

登机小窍门

登机手续办完,可以再问一句:Is this flight full?(这班飞机客满了吗?),如果对方回答:It s not full.(不满。),这时你就要最后一个上飞机,可以自己选择空位,以便起飞后,能躺在整排座位上睡觉。如果航空公司柜台小姐回答It s full.(座位满了。)或It s almost full.(座位几乎满了。),你就要早点儿登机,以便把手提行李顺利地放在行李架上,如果此时你最后登机,搞不好没有位子放你的行李了,行李被迫放在很远的地方,很麻烦。

有经验的旅行家常说:It s best to be the first for a buffet(欧式自助餐)and the last to get on a plane.(吃自助餐要第一个进餐厅,坐飞机要最后一个上飞机。)吃自助餐抢第一,既有最多的选择,又干净,坐飞机要最后一个登机,可以自由选择好位子。

信用卡和押金在住宿中的作用

到外国住旅馆,他们怕你不结账就离开,通常就会叫你用信用卡先刷卡,不签名;如果你不结账就离开,他们也可以从银行拿到钱。

在美国如果没有信用卡几乎无法住旅馆或租车,即使是小旅馆,如果没有信用卡,除了要先付住宿费以外,还要付一些押金(deposit),他们会说:Sir,you have to leave a deposit.(先生,你需要留一点儿押金。)

留押金的目的,是为了怕你把旅馆的设备弄坏,因为如果你不结账就走了,为了一点儿小钱,他们也无法告你。

中外餐馆中就餐礼仪的对比

美国人去饭店或咖啡馆时,往往穿戴整齐。因为在英美,这些地方被人们认为是正式的社交场合,必须注意自己的仪表。饭店、咖啡店环境幽雅,一般都播放背景音乐(background music),没有人高声说话、大声喊叫。相比之下,我们在国内饭店就餐时,往往喜欢气氛热烈,不时可听到满桌的“吃啊,吃啊!别客气,再来些!”的声音。而这种现象在英美是绝对没有的。因此在国外餐馆就餐时,即使不与国外人同桌,也须尊重别人的风俗习惯,保持安静。有时的确需要表露一下欢快的心情,那么可以去酒吧(bar)。酒吧有爵士乐队伴奏,可以让顾客尽情谈笑,要唱要跳都可以。

International trade develops because certain countries are able to produce some goods more efficiently than other countries.They exchange goods to satisfy their needs and wants.Efficient production may be the result of several factors.A certain climate in a particular country may allow that country to grow agricultural products in abundance.For instance,the climates in the United States and Canada are suitable for production of large amounts of wheat.Natural resources such as oil or coal are abundant in other countries.Countries with a large pool of unskilled laborers are able to produce products which are labor intensive more cheaply than countries with highly paid,skilled labor forces.Another factor is geographical location.Countries like Singapore and Panama engage in banking and trading because they are located on world trade routes.

国际贸易的发展是由于某些国家能够以比其他国家更为有效的方式生产某些商品,它们通过商品交换来满足其需求。生产的有效性可能由多个因素造成。某国特定的气候条件可能会使该国适宜于大量种植农产品。例如,美国和加拿大的气候条件适宜于大量种植小麦,而有些国家的石油、煤等自然资源非常丰富。拥有大量技术水平较低的劳动力的国家适宜于生产劳动密集型产品,其成本要低于高薪、高技能劳动力的国家。另一个因素是地理位置。像新加坡、巴拿马这样的国家就适宜于发展银行业和贸易,因为它们处在世界贸易的通道上。
