Features: Sichuan English Tour Guide Scenic Spot Commentary is edited and written by Zhu Hua, an associate professor at the School of Tourism, Sichuan Normal University, and a member of the Sichuan Tour Guide Qualification Examination Committee. This book is student- and candidate-centered, with the aim of cultivating Sichuan English tour guides. It serves as a practical goal for helping students and candidates obtain the Sichuan Tour Guide Qualification. It is a local textbook for tourism management, tourism English, and tour guide majors in Sichuan tourism colleges, providing training materials for local, municipal, and prefectural tourism bureaus to train Sichuan English tour guides and candidates for English tour guide qualifications. It is also a useful reference book for employed English tour guides engaged in scenic spot commentary and for foreign tourists traveling in Sichuan.
Based on recent training for the Sichuan Tour Guide Qualification Examination and the author's experience as an English tour guide examiner, the book compiles tour commentary for scenic spots in Sichuan from past exams. The commentary includes key points such as geographical location, significance, and quality, as well as knowledge questions about the scenic spots. To reduce the difficulty of learning for students and candidates and potential challenges in tour guide commentary, every scenic spot name, place name, person's name, and new word is followed by Chinese annotations for easy reference by students, candidates, and tour guides during their studies and work.
