Unit 3 Business Travel

According to the WTO(World Trade Organization), around 30 per cent of interna-tional trips these days are for business-and business travel shows no sign of slowing down. Even in this world of instant communication and social media, business travel is as neces-sary and advantageous as ever. Business travel in some form has been undertaken since the time people started trading with each other.

根据世界贸易组织的统计,目前大约30%的国际旅行属于商务出行,而且商务出行活动没有任何放缓的迹象。即便在这个即时通信和社交媒体迅速发展的世界里,商务出行仍然不可或缺。自从人类开始互通有无的时候,就已经开始了某种形式的商务旅行。
