英语情景教学实战:乘出租汽车

Taxi fares vary from city to city. In some cities, taxis have meters that tell you the fare. For long rides, it is a good idea to ask in advance what the approximate fare will be. This is especially true if you're taking a taxi from an airport. You should tip taxi drivers about 15% of the total fare.
不同城市出租车费不同。在一些城市，出租车有公里表告诉你费用是多少。要去远路，最好提前问一下大概费用是多少。特别是你要搭出租车去机场。你应该给出租车司机总费用15%的小费。
