我觉得奇怪的第二件事是英国的公共交通,上面的常态是:所有人都保持安静、往上看。——如果你在地铁里跟人讲话,那你很有可能是个连环杀手(或者是个迷路的游客,而这对伦敦人来说和连环杀手一样糟)。
I’ve had to deal with the Tube from Heathrow to Victoria with heavy bags more times than I care to count, and Victoria Station is not exactly tourist friendly.
我已经好多次不得不提着沉重的大袋子从西斯罗机场坐地铁去维多利亚火车站了,而维多利亚火车站对游客一点都不友好。
Each time I’ve had someone walk up and ask to help with my bags. Not once have they been English.
每次如果有人走过来问我需不需要帮忙,那这个人都不是英国人。
In America, at least from what I’ve experienced, people will start a chat if they see you’re travelling by yourself, and I always immediately have someone taller offer to put my stuff in an overhead bin.
而在美国,至少是据我的经验而言,大家如果看见你是独自旅行的话,都会跟你说上两句;过不了多久就会有个长得高的人过来,帮我把东西放到头顶上的储物箱里。
Although this may be 50% good manners and 50% fear that I’ll drop it on someone’s head!
当然,这可能一半是出于礼貌,另一半是因为怕我的东西砸到别人的头!
