Mastering Negotiations: Essential Tips for Success

Hey Guys,  this is Chinese teacher Cara, welcome to my Channel,  you’re listening a B1 lesson.
今天为大家朗读的是一篇短文，题目是：美国人如果应对旅游旺季？
美国有很多出行旺季 peak season。最高峰的季节在十一月底，也就是感恩节期间。十二月底到一月初也有很多人出行。当然了，夏季从六月到八月的学校暑假也是旅行季节。

那么美国人怎么出行呢？短途旅行的话，开车是最常见的选择。如果开车得八小时以上，搭乘飞机则是最常见的方式，边开边玩的公路旅行 road trip 也很受欢迎。

有趣的是，在美国，火车票通常比机票更贵，虽然坐火车比飞机慢得多。比如说，从旧金山到纽约，搭乘飞机只需要不足到六小时，如果选择坐火车或坐汽车，同样的旅程需要超过三天，而且费用比飞机票更贵。

你喜欢旅行吗？你今年计划去哪里旅行呢？Please let me know in a comment or we can talk about it in the class, Thanks for listening.我们下次节目再见。

CHINESE STORY中文故事

守株待兔

LUKE: Hello? Hi, Stephanie, how are things at the office?
STEPHANIE: Hi, Luke! How are you? Can you please stop and pick up 
extra paper for the computer printer?
LUKE: What did you say? Can you repeat that, please? Did you 
say to pick up ink for the printer? Sorry, the phone is 
cutting out.
STEPHANIE: Can you hear me now? No, I need more computer paper. 
Listen, I’ll text you exactly what I need. Thanks, Luke. 
Talk to you later.
LUKE: Thanks, Stephanie. Sorry, my phone has really bad
reception here.



LANGUAGE NOTES
• There are a few ways to express a lack of understanding and to request additional 
information. The most common ones are stated, but you can also say “Excuse me” or 
simply “I can’t hear you.” In a more formal situation, try saying “I’m sorry?” or “I beg 
your pardon?” (with a rising intonation).
• When asking someone to clarify information try saying Can you please repeat that? / 
Can you spell that for me? / Can you please write down the address for me?
• Cutting out describes a difficulty in understanding a caller due to poor cellphone 
reception. If you are having trouble understanding the caller, you can also say The 
line is breaking up / I am losing you. If the phone call is disconnected because of poor 
reception, you can say The call dropped.
• Talk to you later is the equivalent in a phone conversation of “See you later” in a 
regular, face-to-face conversation.
• Reception here means the availability of cellular service, the possibility to receive and 
give calls on a cellphone. Cellphone reception can be limited in remote areas, inside 
large buildings or underground (in the subway, for instance).
