Cultural Notes 问路技巧 A、问路要有礼貌。 问路时必须面带微笑,口气谦和,以取得对方好感。然后,根据不同对象用不同称呼,最起码要叫一声“同志”,一般对方都会驻足相告。B、问路要选准对象。 一是选当地人问路。一方水土,养一方人,各个地方的穿着打扮和容貌、语言都有自己的特点,而一些旅游城市,外地旅游者多,要善于根据对方的穿着、相貌、语言举止来判断是否是当地人,然后再问路。 二是选异性问路。从心里角度来说,选择异性问路,容易得到对方的热情指点,而取得较好的效果。 三是选择老人和恋人问路。一般说来老人给人指路,大都比较耐心、认真、负责;青年人则可能会比较马虎应付,个别人还会恶作剧瞎指路。而向正谈恋爱的男女问路,往往也会为您提供满意的答案。 四是选择民警和学生问路。一般情况下选择民警问路最可靠,他们对城市大体情况了解比较熟悉,不会上当受骗,但他们的缺点是不会耐心指点,往往应付了事。 值得一提的是,一般不宜向行色匆匆的路人、面部冷阴或低头沉思的人问路,这些人往往无心给你指路。C、问路要记住位置和特征。 听人介绍时,要抓住关键,如地名、地物、典型标志位置和基本特征,这样才能不至于走错路,顺利找到目标。对目标不明时,应多问几个人,找出他们谈话中共同的东西,利用自己的知识和经验做出判断,从而达到问路的目的。 最后一条经验是:问路一定要讲普通话,无论处在何地,都一律通用。
