中考时文阅读--冠状病毒使5000万旅游业者面临风险
Coronavirus puts 50 million tourism jobs
The coronavirus pandemic could cut up to 50 million jobs worldwide in the travel and tourism industry. This is according to the World Travel and Tourism Council (WTTC）. The tourism industry could shrink by up to 25 percent. Many people are staying at home and not travelling. Many people cannot travel as more and more countries are taking action to fight COVID-19. This action includes closing borders, requiring people self-quarantine for 14 days after arriving in a country, and banning flights from other countries. The head of the WTTC said the pandemic, "clearly presents a significant threat to the industry as a whole, to those employed within it, and those wishing to continue travelling".?
The tourism industry makes up 10 percent of the world's GDP and jobs. It is one of the industries hardest hit by the COVID-19 virus. Airlines, cruise ships and hotels have suffered big losses. Korean Air has warned that the coronavirus could threaten its survival. Australia's Qantas has reduced its international flights by nearly 25 percent because of the outbreak. World-famous sites are deserted. This could cause restaurants and cafes to go out of business as tourists stay away from crowded places. Tourism is a key industry in Hawaii. Experts there predict that over half of Hawaii's hotel rooms will be empty over the next few months. The WTTC said that tourism would take 10 months to recover after the virus.

参考译文
冠状病毒使5000万旅游业者面临风险

此次冠状病毒大流行可能会在全球范围内给旅游业减少多达5000万个就业岗位。这是根据世界旅游和旅游理事会（WTTC）的报告。旅游业可能萎缩25%。许多人呆在家里不旅行。随着越来越多的国家采取行动打击COVID-19，许多人无法旅行。这项行动包括关闭边境，要求人们抵达一个国家后14天内实行自我隔离，并禁止从其他国家起飞。世贸中心负责人表示，这一流行病“显然对整个行业、行业内的从业人员以及希望继续旅行的人构成重大威胁”。
旅游业占全球GDP和就业的10%。它是受COVID-19病毒影响最严重的行业之一。航空公司、游轮和酒店都遭受了巨大损失。韩国航空警告说，冠状病毒可能威胁其生存。由于疫情爆发，澳大利亚的澳航减少了近25%的国际航班。世界名胜古迹荒芜。这可能导致餐馆和咖啡馆倒闭，因为游客远离拥挤的地方。旅游业是夏威夷的一个关键产业。当地专家预测，未来几个月，夏威夷一半以上的酒店客房将空置。WTTC说，病毒感染后，旅游业需要10个月才能恢复
