In Taiwan, coworkers often share snacks like Taichung' s most famous suncakes. Those are souvenirs, too. Souvenirs are an important part of the tourism industry. In fact, business people have found the best time to sell souvenirs is when tourists are leaving a place. That is why the gift shop is always located at the end of the museum tour and why there are duty - free shops at the airport. This is also why bands sell merchandise after the show. Souvenirs are great ways to remember good times.

在臺灣,同事間常常分享點心,像是臺中最有名的太陽餅。那些也是紀念品。紀念品是旅遊業很重要的一部分。事實上,商人發現賣紀念品最好的時機就是當遊客準備離開一個地方的時候。那就是為什麼禮品店總是位於博物館導覽的最後一站,以及機場為何會有免稅店。這也是為什麼樂團在表演結束後販賣商品。紀念品是紀念美妙時光的好方法。

生活必備字詞:
industry n. 產業,行業
locate 使位於,坐落於
duty - free a. 免稅的
