E14.To tip or not to tip
給小費

對話場景

Elvin下周要去美國，聽說美國是個小費國家，于是問David一些關于小費的問題。
Elvin is going to America next week. So，he asked David some questions about tipping.

Elvin：David, do you have a minute?
（David，你有時間嗎？）
David：Sure. What's up?
（有啊，怎么啦？）
Elvin：I'm going to the States next week. I've been meaning to ask you about tipping.
（我下周要去美國。我想問問你關于小費的一些問題。）
David：Well, you should always tip if you go to restaurants. Unless you're going to fast food chains.
（哦，如果你去餐廳的話，肯定要給小費，除非是去連鎖快餐店。）
Elvin：How much should I tip?
（那要給多少呢？）
David：That depends on the type of restaurants you go to. But usually 15 percent. You might need to tip more if you are at a really fancy place. Oh, make sure you don't tip with coins. It's considered rude.
（這要看你去的是哪一類餐廳了。一般來說嘛，15%。如果是特別高級的餐廳。那就要多給一點了。還有，別用硬幣當小費。會給人不禮貌的感覺。）
Elvin：Ok. What about taxi drivers? Do I need to tip them?
（知道了。哎，那出租司機呢？要給他們小費嗎？）
David：Usually if it's small change, you just let them keep it. But you don't need to give them extra tips.
（一般來說，如果找零很少的話，你就給他們，不用找了。不過也不用給額外的小費。）
Elvin：Ok. That's good to know. Thanks for your help!
（好。我知道了。謝謝你幫忙啊?。?br />David：No worries. Anytime. Have a great trip!
（沒關系。隨時來問。旅途愉快?。?br />
