【題目】Tourism Problems

Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants(居民)of a country. If tourists create too much traffic, the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. They forget how much tourism can help the country's economy(經(jīng)濟(jì)). It is important to think about the people of a destination(目的地)country and how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists. Tourism should also advance the wellbeing of local inhabitants.

Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the country's economy can suffer.

On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people will lose jobs. Businesses will also lose money. It costs a great deal of money to build a large hotels, airports, air terminals, firstclass roads, and other support facilities(設(shè)施)needed by tourist attractions. For example, a major internationalclass tourism hotel needs as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel will lose money.

Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers to handle waste, and water. All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost.

【1】Too much tourism can cause all these problems EXCEPT________.

A．a(chǎn) bad effect on other industries

B．a(chǎn) change of tourists' customs

C．overcrowding of places of interest

D．pressure on traffic

【2】Not enough tourism can lead to________.

A．a(chǎn)n increase of unemployment

B．a(chǎn) decrease in tourist attractions

C．the higher cost of support facilities

D．a(chǎn) rise in price and a fall in pay

【3】The word“handle”in the last paragraph most probably means“________”．

A．carry away

B．pick up

C．get in

D．take down

【答案】【1】B

【2】A

【3】A

【解析】【1】本題考查細(xì)節(jié)辨認(rèn)能力。由第一、二段可知旅游業(yè)的泛濫并不能改變旅游者的風(fēng)俗習(xí)慣。

【2】見第三段首句“On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people will lose jobs.”

【3】由第四段知“賓館需要大量的配套設(shè)施，如：道路、電力排水管和水源等”。

【題目】As societies develop, their members start to see things not so much according to what they need, but according to what they want. When people have enough money, these wants become demands.

Now, it's important for the managers in a company to understand what their customers want if they are going to develop effective marketing strategies(策略). There are various ways of doing this. One way at supermarkets(超市), for example, is to interview(采訪)customers while they're doing their shopping. They can be asked what they prefer to buy and then the results of the research can be studied. This provides information on which to base future marketing strategies. It's also quite normal for top managers from department stores to spend a day or two each month visiting stores and mixing freely with the public, as if they were ordinary customers, to get an idea of how customers act.

Another way to get information from customers is to give them something. For example, some fast food restaurants give away tickets in magazines or on the street that permit customers to get part of their meal for nothing. As well as being a good way of attracting customers into the restaurants to spend their money, it also allows the managers to get a feel for where to attract customers and which age-groups to attract.

Another strategy used at some well-known parks such as Disneyland is for top managers to spend at least one day in their work, touring the park dressed as Mickey Mouse or something like that. This provides them with a perfect chance to examine the scene and watch the customers without being noticed.

【1】 The text is designed for________.

A．managers

B．salesmen

C．researchers

D．customers

【2】 Which of the following can help managers get useful information?

A．Visiting customers themselves.

B．Giving customers free food on the street.

C．Visiting parks as ordinary customers.

D．Asking customers questions at supermarkets.

【3】 What does the word “this” underlined in the last sentence refer to?

A．Visiting Disneyland.

B．Wearing attractive clothes.

C．Acting Mickey Mouse.

D．Dressing up and walking around.

【4】 The main idea of the text is________.

A．how to do market research

B．how to develop marketing strategies

C．how to find out customers' social needs

D．how to encourage customers to spend more money

I took a trip to a big lake in Indonesia with my family two years before. It was really huge lake with beautiful scenery all around. People were amazed by the endless view in front of our eye. Later on, unlike other girls, I was volunteered to go waterskiing alone. I took on the life jacket, got off the motorboat immediately and started my engine as soon as possibly.
