Tourism (旅游业) is one of the world’s largest industries. Many countries depend heavily on tourism as an important part of their economy (经济), while other countries such as some of the smaller Caribbean island nations—are almost completely dependent on tourism.
Despite its economic advantages, tourism has disadvantages, too. While countries spend millions attracting tourists, they are also under the pressure that tourism brings.
One of the biggest problems is environmental. The building of roads and hotels can quickly destroy those very beautiful places. Development on wetlands, for example, influences wildlife; forests disappear as they are cleared to s make way for buildings and to provide fuel (燃料) . In addition, the tourist industry also puts a huge pressure on water people need. In dry Mediterranean areas, tourists use almost twice as much water as local people when swimming in the pool.
Tourism is also responsible for producing plenty of waste. Cruise ships in the Caribbean produce a lot of rubbish-more than 70 000 tons each year. It even has an influence on places far away like the Himalayas, the world’s highest mountain, which has more than 100 tons of rubbish sitting on it.
In spite of these problems, tourism can be good for communities and the environment. The park-entrance fees (费用) are paid for the protection of places of interest or the animals. What’s more, tourism brings people closer to nature, and can give them a better understanding of the environment and the result of destroying it. This leads to pressure on local governments to protect these beautiful areas, and can result in the protection of endangered plants and animals. Also, it can provide people with more opportunities to find jobs in the tourist industry.
Although tourism has many advantages, it clearly has a bad influence as well. The challenge for local and national governments is to manage tourism so that communities can benefit economically, and yet at the same time, make sure that the tourist areas are kept for all to enjoy.
( )1. Paragraph 3 and Paragraph 4 mainly talk about the ______ of tourism.
A. disadvantages B. development C. importance D. survey
( )2. The writer shows the waste problem is serious by ______ .
A. telling stories B. listing facts C. asking questions D. making comparisons
( )3. According to Paragraph 5, which of the following are the advantages of tourism
①The money from tourism is used to protect the environment.
②Tourism can help people better understand the local culture.
③People can get more chances to find jobs related to tourism.
④Humans and nature are becoming closer with the help of tourism.
A. ①②③ B. ①②④ C. ①③④ D. ②③④
( )4. The writer advises the government to ______ at the end of the passage.
A. attract more tourists B. care about the economy
C. develop the tourist industry D. manage tourism well

Mr and Mrs Smith had always spent their summer holidays in New Jersey（新泽西）in the past，staying in a small inn (旅店) at the foot of a hill.
One year，however，Mr Smith made a lot of money in his business，so they decided to go to London and stay at a really good hotel while they went touring around that famous city.
They flew to London and arrived at their hotel late one evening. They had expected that they would have to go to bed hungry，because in that small inn in New Jersey，no meals were served after seven. They were surprised when the waiter asked whether they would take dinner there that night. “Are you still serving dinner？” asked Mr Smith.“Yes，certainly，sir，” answered the waiter.“We serve it until half past nine.”
“What are the times of meals then？”asked Mr Smith. “Well，sir，”answered the waiter.“We serve breakfast from seven to half past eleven in the morning，lunch from twelve to three in the afternoon，tea from four to five，and dinner from six to half past nine.”
“But that hardly leaves any time for us to see the sights of London，”said Mr Smith.

Have you ever been to Singapore For many Chinese tourists, this small island in Southeast Asia is a wonderful place to take a holiday. On the one hand, more than three quarters of the population are Chinese, so you can simply speak Putonghua a lot of time. On the other hand, Singapore is an English-speaking country, so it’s also a good place to practise your English!
Have you ever tried Chinese food outside of China Maybe you fear that you won’t be able to find anything to eat in a foreign country. In Singapore, however, you’ll find a lot of food from China; you won’t have any g problems finding rice, noodles or dumplings. However, if you have great courage, Singapore is an excellent place to try new food, such Laksa, a popular spicy (麻辣的) noodle soup. Whether you like Indian food, Western food, or Japanese food, you’ll find them in Singapore!
Most large cities have zoos, but have you ever been to a zoo at night When you are in Singapore, don’t miss going to the Night Safari. It might seem strange to go to a zoo when it’s dark. But if you’ve ever been to a zoo during the daytime, you might understand why this zoo is so special. A lot of animals only wake up at night, so this is the best time, to watch them. If you go to see lions, tigers, or foxes during the daytime, they’ll probably be asleep! At the Night Safari, you can watch these animals in a more natural environment than a normal zoo.
One great thing about Singapore is that the temperature is almost the same all year round. This is because the island is so close to the equator (赤道) . So you can choose to go whenever you like-spring, summer, autumn, or winter! And, of course, it’s not too far from China!
( )1. Why is Singapore a wonderful place for Chinese travellers
A. Because there’s little language trouble. B. Because it’s a good place to try new food.
C. Because it has a large and special zoo. D. Because the weather there is pleasant.
( )2. What do tourists need if they try Laksa
A. They need to have much money. B. They need to be brave.
C. They need to speak English. D. They need to love Western food.
( )3. The “Night Safari” is ______ .
A. a zoo B. a market C. a restaurant D. an animal
( )4. What makes the zoo in Singapore so special
A. It has more strange animals. B. Animals live in the wild.
C. Animals sleep in the daytime. D. Animals’ night activities can be watched.
( )5. What is the article mainly about
A. Animals in Singapore. B. Singapore’s food.
C. Travelling in Singapore. D. Lifestyle in Singapore.
四.词汇填空
1. We are pleased with the good ________ (服务) in the new restaurant near my home.
