“攻略”用英语怎么说

 　　Jessica在北京学汉语，她的中国朋友要是遇到了不知道用美语怎么说的词，就会来请教她。今天是吴琼要问的：攻略。

　　Jessica: Wuqiong, what are you doing on the computer? You've spent hours on the Internet!

　　WQ: Jessica, 我下个月要去意大利，出门在外，不先看看旅游攻略怎么行？

　　Jessica: 攻略？Are you going to attack Italy?

　　WQ: 哪有! 旅游攻略就是去过那里的人写的心得体会，总结建议，这在美语里要怎么说呢？

　　Jessica: I see. You were referring to travel tips. You are right, Wuqiong, flipping¹ through travel guide books and get some tips from the Internet can be really helpful, especially when it is your first trip to a new place.

　　WQ: Yep! For example, I was just looking for ways to get discount on museum tickets, and some of the tips that people shared online came in really handy²!

　　Jessica: Make good use of the tips. They also help you avoid tourist traps⁴!

　　WQ: Tourist traps? 哦，就是旅行陷阱吧! 这个最烦人了，Tourist traps are annoying and can spoil⁵ the whole trip!

　　Jessica: So, Wuqiong, how long are you going to stay in Italy?

　　WQ: 我当然希望可以慢慢走，慢慢看，仔细领略意大利的风景和文化，不过我假期有限，财力也有限，所以只有4天时间。

　　Jessica: Four days only? So you are going to stay in one city?

　　WQ: Actually I'm going to tour 4 cities and they are far away from each other.

　　Jessica: I see. This is a whirlwind tour then.

　　WQ: W-h-i-r-l-w-i-n-d, whirlwind 是旋风的意思，whirlwind tour 就是旋风旅游，也就是一阵风似的在很短的时间内去很多地方走马观花。唉，I can only afford a whirlwind tour right now. I really wish I had more time and money.

　　Jessica: You will! Italy's not going anywhere. You can always go back someday!

　　WQ: 今天我们学了，旅行攻略是 travel tips, 旅游陷阱是tourist trap³, 旋风旅行则是 whirlwind tour.
