1. What do people usually do when they get lost?
人们迷路时通常会做什么？
When people get lost, they often try to retrace their steps to familiar landmarks. If they have access to technology, they might use GPS or navigation apps to find their location. Asking for directions from locals or passersby is another common approach. Some people may also look for high ground to get a better view of their surroundings or stay in one place to avoid getting further lost until help arrives.
人们迷路时通常会试着返回他们熟悉的地标。如果他们能使用科技设备，可能会通过GPS或导航应用找到自己的位置。询问当地人或路过的人也是常见的方法。一些人可能会寻找高处以更好地观察周围环境，或者停留在原地以避免越走越远，等待救援。
2. What are the differences between paper and digital maps?
纸质地图和数字地图有什么区别？
Paper maps are physical and don’t rely on batteries or a signal, making them useful in remote areas. They provide a broader view of an area and often include detailed topographical information. However, they can be bulky, harder to read, and less convenient to update. Digital maps, on the other hand, are interactive, easy to carry, and can provide real-time updates like traffic or weather conditions. The main drawback is their dependence on technology, which might fail due to low battery or poor signal.
纸质地图是实物，不依赖电池或信号，因此在偏远地区很有用。它们通常能提供更广泛的区域视图，并包括详细的地形信息。然而，纸质地图比较笨重、不易阅读，也不方便更新。而数字地图是互动式的，携带方便，并且可以提供实时更新，例如交通或天气信息。其主要缺点是依赖科技，可能因电量不足或信号差而无法使用。
