Have a safe trip
1____ People visit other countries for many reasons. Some travel on business; others travel to visit interesting places that are only found in other countries, such as the Taji Mahal (泰姬陵) in India, or the temples of Thailand.
2____ Wherever you go, and for whatever reason, it is important to be safe. A tourist can attract a lot of attention from local people. While the majority of people you will meet when traveling are sure to be friendly and welcoming, there are dangers—theft being the most common. Just as in your home country, do not expect everyone you meet to be friendly and helpful.
3_____ As you prepare for your trip, make sure you have the right paperwork. You don’t want to get to your destination only to find you have the wrong visa, or worse, that your passport is about to expire (期满，失效). Also, make sure you travel with proper medical insurance, so that if you are sick or injured during your travels, you will be able to get treatment. If you want to drive while you are abroad, make sure you have an international driver’s license.
4_____ Buy a guidebook and read about the local customs of the country you are going to. Do as the romans do, and you will save yourself a lot of trouble. Besides, learning in advance can help you understand the local culture better when you are there. Also, try to learn a few basic words and phrase----don’t assume that the local people will speak you language.
5_____ When you get to your destination, use official transport. Always go to bus and taxi stands; don’t accept rides from strangers who offer you a lift. If there is no meter(表) in the taxi, agree on a price before you get in. if you prefer to stay in cheap hotels when traveling, make sure you can lock the door of your room from the inside. If you are traveling with valuables such as jewelry, or a lot of cash, you should ask about a safe(保险箱) for storing them in.
