几个小贴士让你的旅行变得轻松: 1.在出发前一晚打包 在旅行当天,你不想要因打包行李而增加的压力。但不可避 免地,总有一些东西要么找不到,要么就是还“在洗衣房”中。 在出发前一晚打包会让你的旅程一开始就很顺利。 2.使用装箱清单 为了让你的打包变得轻松,使用装箱清单。使用装箱清单能 让你在很短的时间里进行打包,也能让你安心,保证你在出门时 带上了所需要的一切。
3.为行李预留空间 当你在旅途中时,你不想丢失物品。收据、钥匙、太阳镜还 有其他物品似乎都在匆忙间被放错了地方。为每一样物品安排一 处空间,做好管理。 4.不要出去吃饭 当你在旅途中(特别是出差)时,你最不需要做的事情是到达 目的地后花更多的时间找一处吃晚餐的地方。休息一下,通过在 酒店用餐来节省时间。客房服务可能有点贵,但它将节省你晚上 一个小时或更多的时间。
5.备好有关旅行的详细资料 你永远不知道在旅途中什么时候会发生变数。你不需要胡乱 去找你的旅行信息。 6.永远要早 没有什么会比错过航班或是转机能更快地让旅行变糟了。时 刻记得在旅行日程安排中腾出缓冲时间。你可能认为早出发需要 “额外的时间”,但它最终能化解很多压力并避免发生让你头疼 的事情。
Section Ⅰ Warming Up & Reading — Pre-reading
Here are some tips① to help your travel be effortless: 1.Pack the Night Before You don't want the added② stress of packing the day of your trip. Inevitably, something is missing or still “in the laundry”. Packing the night before gets your trip off on the right foot. 2.Use a Pack List (装箱清单) To make your packing effortless, use a pack list. Using a pack list allows you to pack in a fraction of the time, and gives you the peace of mind that you have everything before you leave the house.
