 　　Are you travelling to an English speaking country? If you are, one of the most important things you are going to need to know is how to ask for directions: so here are some useful phrases.

　　你正在一个说英语的国家旅游吗?如果是的，最重要一件事就是你需要知道怎么问路：下面列举了几个有用的短语。

　　Remember to be polite when asking for directions, and don’t forget to say “thank you”!

　　问路的时候切记一定要礼貌，不要忘记说“谢谢”。

　　“How do I get to …” – This is the simplest way to ask someone for directions. When you use this phrase, the other person will either tell you which mode¹ of transport (bus, underground) to take or will explain your route.

　　“我该怎么去…”这是向他人问路最简单的说法。当你用这个短语的时候，别人也会告诉你选择哪种交通工具到目的地(公交车，地铁)或者告诉你清楚的路线。

　　“Could you tell me the best way to get to …” – This is a very polite way to ask for directions.

　　“你能告诉我去…最好的方式吗”这是非常礼貌的问路方式。

　　“Where exactly am I?” – Now, if you are travelling to an English speaking country and you ask for directions, you still might get lost. And in order to get new directions, you might need to find out where exactly you are, for example which street you are on. If this is the case, ask this particular question.

　　“我现在的到底在哪?”—此刻，如果你在一个讲英语的国度旅行并问路时，你可能仍然会迷路。为了得到新的方向，你可能需要找出你现在所在的具体位置，例如你在哪条街。如果是这样的情况，就用这个特别的方式问路。

　　“What is the quickest way to get to …” – Let’s pretend you have to catch a bus and this bus comes at certain times in the day. So you need to get to the bus stop quickly. If you need to go somewhere fast, ask this question.

　　“到…最快的方式是什么”—让我们假设你要搭乘的一辆公共汽车，而一天就只有几趟，因此你需要迅速的去公交车站台。如果你需要迅速的去某地，就用这个方式来问。

　　“Where is …” – This phrase is also useful when asking for directions. I use this phrase mostly with “Where is the bathroom?” Usually, this phrase is used when you know you are very close to your destination, you just need a little guidance in finding² the place.

　　“…在哪里”—这个短语在问路的时候也很有用。我大多数时候用这个短语问“洗手间在哪里?”。通常，这个短语用在你已经知道你离你的目的地很近了，只需要稍微指点一下。

　　Now you are ready to travel to an English speaking country and to ask for directions. Enjoy your travels and have fun!

　　现在你已经准备好去说英语的国家旅游也知道如何问路了。祝旅途愉快，玩的开心!
