M: We still have one more day to go before we return home. What will we see tomorrow?


J: no idea. We've enjoyed both the natural scenery and the city sights. What else is there to see?


M: what about a factory tour?


J: you mean visit a factory?


M: yes. I heard there's a lager motor company nearby which open to the public every weekend. We can go to see how a car is manufactured 1 and learn more about the automobile 2 industry.


J: good idea! I've always been interested in that. How much is the entrance fee?


M: I'm not sure, but as far as I know, most factory tours are free. They are sponsored 3 by the company providing the tour.


J: really? What do the companies do that for?


M: I believe most of them think of it as good public relations. They can promote their product and make their company better-known.


J: oh, isee. So factory tours are good for companies as well as visitors.


M: exactly.


J: do we need an appointment beforehand 4?


M: I'll call the tourist information centre to check.

还有一天才会去,明天去哪玩呢?

不知道,我们既欣赏了自然风光,有领略了城市特色,还有什么可看的呢?

要不来个“工业旅游”吧?

你是说参观工厂?

是啊,听说这附近有个大的汽车公司,每周末会对外开放。我们可以去参观,看看汽车是怎么生产的,顺便了解一下汽车工业。

好主意,我一直挺赶兴趣的。入场券多少钱啊?

不清楚,但是大多数这种参观都是免费的,我接待我们的公司安排。

真的吗?公司为什么这么大方?

我想他们把这个当成一种公共关系策略吧,借此推销产品,提高企业知名度。

哦,我明白了。所以“工业旅游”既对企业有好处,又对游客有好处。

正是这样。

那我们要提前预约吗?

我打电话给旅游咨询中心问问。
