In the US and many other countries. Tipping(給小費(fèi)) is a way of saying thank-you to someone for his good service. Who do you tip? And how much? Below are some tips(提示) for travelers in the US.

1Taxi drivers: $2 to $3; you give more if he helps you with your bags.

2 Porters(搬運(yùn)工): A standard tip(標(biāo)準(zhǔn)的小費(fèi)) for porters is $1 each bag; more if your suitcases are very heavy.

3Hotel bellboy(青年侍者): Again, $1 for each bag. Tip him when he shows you to your room.

4 Doorman(看門人): A $1 tip for calling a taxi. However, you may tip more for special service, such as shielding(擋住) you with an umbrella in the rain. You don’t have to give the doorman anything just for opening the door or greeting you.

5 Hotel maid(女傭): If you stay for more than one night, $1 each night is standard.

6 Waiters and waitresses: 15-20% of your pre-tax(稅前的) bill. In restaurants and bars in the US and Canada, 15% is the standard tip.

7 Tour guides(導(dǎo)游): If a tip is not included in your bill, tip $1 for half-day tour, $2 for a one-day tour, and anywhere from $5 to $10 for a week-long tour.

Now, it’s sad to say that people have to give tips, even though the service is not good at all. So if you go to the US, remember to carry a lot of change(零錢) for tips.

Qu yuan, an official and a famous poet lived about 2,000 years ago. As a kind, wise and patriotic(愛國的)man, he was loved by the common people(百姓).71 When people heard that Qu threw himself in the Miluo River, they were very sad and went there quickly in order to save his life. 72 In the Chinese culture, dragon means power and authority(權(quán)威), so fishermen used dragon boats to scare the fish away from Qu’s body. They also threw Zong Zi, or rice dumplings, into the water to feed the fish. 73 But they were too late. Qu Yuan died.
