Where would you go on your perfect road trip? Would you travel down Road 66 in the USA, or would you go through Europe? Would it be a long trip with sights along the way, or a short trip to visit somewhere closer to home?
你会去哪进行你的公路之旅呢？你会沿着美国的66大道旅行，还是去欧洲呢？这会是观看沿途景点的长长途旅行呢，还是参观更接近家的某个地方的短途旅行？
Wherever you decide to go on your road trip, by making sure you plan your route before hand and pack everything you need, you can focus on enjoying your trip and exploring the world.
不管你决定去哪开始你的公路之旅，通过确保在收拾打包你需要的每件东西之前计划好你的路线，你就可以专注于享受你的旅程，探索这个世界。
If you are getting ready to go, here are ten essential things you must take on a road trip.
如果你准备要去，这有10件公路之旅上你必须要带的东西。
1.Bottles of water
几瓶水
Water is probably the most essential thing to bring on a road trip. You will be driving for long stretches of time and it’s important to keep hydrated. Pack a number of bottles and make sure you keep topping up your supply along the way.
水可能是要带在公路之旅上的最必要的东西了。你将驾驶很长的时间，保持身体的水分很重要。带上一些瓶水，确保一路上保持供应你对水的需要。
2.Maps
地图
Maps made out of paper, that is. You can’t rely on your phone or sat nav to be charged the whole trip, and you can almost guarantee at some point your electronic map device will not work. Having real maps at hand will mean that you won’t get lost (well, you’re less likely to get lost), and you don’t have to waste time waiting around for your mobile phone to charge. Speaking of which…地图是由纸做成的，就是这点。你不能全程都依靠你的手机或收费的电子导航，而且肯定有时候你的电子地图设备会失灵。拥有真正的地图在手意味着你不会迷路（好吧，你不太可能会迷路），并且你补兵再浪费时间等待你的手机充电。说起这个.......
3.A USB car charger
一个USB汽车充电器
If you have a lot of electrical equipment, or you want to use your phone on your trip (to capture all of those memories with, and to update Instagram, obviously), you’ll need a USB car charger. Better yet, get a charger with two ports so you don’t have to argue over who gets to charge theirs first!
如果您有大量的电子设备，或者你想在旅途中使用你的手机（显然是捕获所有那些记忆，并更新Instagram），那你需要一个USB汽车充电器。最好带一个有2个端口的充电器，这样你们就不必争论谁先冲电！
4.Plenty of CDs
大量的CD
Make a bunch of CDs so you have some playlists for your trip. Brining CDs might seem old fashioned but mobile phone batteries and mp3 players run out fast and there’s nothing worse than a long car journey without any music. Plus, if you stick to playing your CDs, then those songs will become synonymous with your trip, and will bring back wonderful memories when you hear them off-hand in a coffee shop or on the radio in the future. Music is a powerful way of creating memories that never leave us.
准备一堆CD，这样你就可以为你的旅行播放音乐。带着CD似乎有些过时，但手机和MP3播放器的电池消耗得很快，没有什么比开车长途旅行中没有任何音乐更糟的了。此外，如果你坚持播放你的唱片，那么这些歌曲将成为你的旅行的代名词，并会在未来你在咖啡店或收音机上听到它们时带来美好的回忆。音乐是创造永远不会离开我们的记忆的一种有力方式。
5.Snacks and food
零食和食物
You’ll need a lot of snacks and food for long trips, to keep costs down and avoid the temptation to stop at every fast food outlet1! Bring easy to eat snacks like crisps, breakfast bars, fruit and sandwiches to keep you and your passengers satisfied. There are a number of benefits to packing your own food, even if it takes up more room, as you can control the nutritional2 value of the food you consume and you are flexible to eat whenever you wish. Relying on the food supplied by roadside cafes means you’ll be stuck with greasy3 fast food and unhealthy snacks.
为了长途旅行，你需要大量的零食和食物，以减少成本，避免在每个快餐店都停下来的诱惑！带上如薯片、早餐棒、水果和三明治这样的容易吃的零食，来让你和你的乘客满意。自己打包食物有很多好处，即使它占用了更多的空间，因为你可以控制你会消耗的食物的营养价值，并且随时想吃就吃。依赖路边的咖啡店提供的食物意味着你会被油腻的快餐和不健康的零食所困住。
急救箱和急救用品
Packing a first aid kit and emergency supplies could be one of the most important things you do in preparation for your road trip. Depending on the road you are travelling on, if there is an accident or someone falls ill, it may be a long time until you can reach help. Therefore it’s essential to pack pain killers5, bandages, scissors and plasters6 in the event of an incident.
打包急救箱和急救用品可能是你能为公路之旅所准备的最重要的事情之一。取决于你旅行的道路，如果发生意外或有人生命，可能需要很长时间才能获得帮助。因此有必要把止痛药、绷带、剪刀和创可贴带上以防出现意外。
In the case of a breakdown7, an emergency kit including a warning triangle, warm clothes, a torch, a spare mobile phone and some comfortable shoes will keep you protected as you wait for help.
在出现故障的情况下，包括三角警示牌、急救箱、温暖衣服、手电筒、备用手机和一些舒适的鞋子会在你等待援助的时候一直保护你。
7.A shoe organiser
一个储鞋格柜
Yes a shoe organiser, but not for your shoes! Hang it on the back of one of the seats and fill it with snacks, books, toiletries, electronic equipment and a bottle of water. If you have children, this is a great way of keeping everything in place for them to keep them entertained while keeping the car clean.
是的，一个储鞋格柜，但不适合为了放你的鞋子！把它挂在一个座位的后边，填满零食、书籍、化妆品、电子设备和一瓶水。如果你有孩子，这是一个很好的为他们放置一切他们喜欢的东西让他们快乐，同时保持汽车干净。
8.A car box
一个汽车箱
Car boxes are a handy way of creating more storage space, enabling you to bring more on your trip and saving room in the boot. Car Accessories8 Plus has written a handy guide to roof box compatibility9 so you can choose the right one for your vehicle.
汽车箱是一种便捷的能创造出更多存储空间的方式，能让你旅途上带更多东西并节省行李架上的空间。Car Accessories Plus已经编写了一本便捷指南，以方便您可以为您的车选择合适的一个。
9.A spare car key
一把备用车钥匙
You never know when you might accidentally lock yourself out of the car…你永远不知道什么时候你会不小心将自己锁在车外...
10.A great friend
一个很棒朋友
A road trip is always much better with a companion, whether it be a partner, family member or best friend.
与一个同伴进行公路之旅总是要更好，不管他是你的伴侣、家人还是最好的朋友。
Think of all the great road trip movies; Thelma and Louise, Little Miss Sunshine and Road Trip. They are all about a group of people experiencing the road together; it wouldn’t be the same alone.
想想所有好的公路之旅的电影；陌路狂花、阳光小小姐和公路之旅。它们都是讲述一群人一起体验公路之旅；相同的是都不是独自经历的。
Have a great trip!
旅途愉快！
