本教材根据旅游行业的主要工作内容分为六个单元，并巧妙地将两条故事线分别置于每个单元中，分别体现了旅游从业者在境内服务和在境外服务两个主要的工作情境。本教材在始终突出旅游英语的情境性和互动性的同时，实现“听”“说”技能训练的连贯性和系统性。教材每个单元的任务设置均体现了以“听”作为主要的输入渠道，以“说”“练”“实践”作为**的学习内容，“听”“说”能力互为依托、相互促进，保证学生们在真实的语境中，逐步提高旅游行业英语的实际应用能力。

Li Hua: 3，850 RMB per person for four days in Beijing， including four-star hotel accommodation ， local transportation ， and the entrance tickets.
Mary: That sounds good.
