第11章 问路

迷路

中西文化

在问路之前,应先向对方说声“Excuse me”、“Beg your pardon” 或 “Pardon”,这样既显得有礼貌,又可引起对方的注意;问路时,切勿急步向人走去,并且应当和对方保持适当距离,千万不要碰触对方,说话也不要过急、过快,尽量不要使用手势。

Asking about the Location询问路线

中西文化

问路的时候尽量不要反复问。如果没听清楚,你可以把听到的关键地方再问一下,这样对方就知道自己说得太快了,也许他会再慢点对你说一遍。

在欧美国家街头问路时,绝大多数情形下都会感受到欧美国家人对陌生路人的友善和热情,甚至有些人热情得过头。当他们发现陌生的游客似乎在寻找某个目的地时,往往会主动上前询问你是否需要帮助以至提供他所能提供的最大的帮助。
