If you’re like most people, you love traveling. Your vacation is an important part of your
life, especially a family vacation or honeymoon. The sights and sounds of a distant land
intrigue us all, and the thrill of discovery compels us to pack up and go! But if you’re like me
or anyone of us here at Tripology, there’s usually a problem. When you really want to travel,
you don’t want to research for hours upon hours reading through tours and packages you have
no intention of taking. You don’t want to scour the net, sifting through travel deals and special
offers that come with more fine print than you care to read. You don’t want to read hundreds of
travel stories that read like fiction. You don’t want to call travel agent after travel agent or visit
random travel agencies, asking for quotes. You want professional, expert advice from a travel
specialist and you want it on demand.
Enter Tripology, a free service for all travelers that connects you with a professional travel
agent who is a travel specialist in the type of trip you want to take. We don’t stop at just one
travel agent, no…that’d be too easy. Tripology puts you in touch with three specialized travel
agents who know your trip like you know the back of your hand. Isn’t your trip worth it? Ready

There are some things you should know when you plan to study in the U.S. For example, Americans like to make small talk. “Small talk” includes topics, such as sports, weather, jobs, or past experiences. Most people don’t talk about religion, politics, or personal feelings with strangers. Sex and bodily functions are not discussed. This emotional distance does not mean people dislike you, but personal lives are discussed only with close friends and family.
There are few ritualistic exchanges in English, but you should know that “How are you?” and “How’s it going?” are greetings, not questions about your life. “See you later,” or “See you soon,” are ways of saying good-bye, not appointments.
People in the U. S. are curious. They will ask you a lot of questions. Some of them may appear ridiculous, but try to be patient in answering them. You may be the first person from your country whom they met, and they will have very little understanding of your life. Most people are sincerely interested in learning about you.
But loud conversations usually mean people are angry. Most conversations are moderate in volume with few gestures. Do not speak too loudly or too quietly, and keep your hands under control.
Once you understand more about Americans, you will find it easy to deal with them.
【題組】Why do Americans ask you many questions when you travel to the U. S.?
(A) They want to know you more. (B) They try to be polite to you.
(C) They have been to your country. (D) They like to help you with English.
