旅游英语:PillarsTravellogToHEISHUI旅游英语:Pillars Travellog To HEISHUIHello,I am just back from HEISHUI KALONGGOU valley, now sharing my journey with you. It was very cold there, freezing, snowing, but interesting.TRAVELLOGThe unexpected mud-flood prolonged our trip to 12 hours,4 hours longer than original. More than 10000 automobiles had piled up along the road since WENCHUAN. At 19'o clock we got HEISHUI county, which is remote and light populated. The 1st impression came to me was the free life style. The majority of the population there is TIBETAN, but most of the shop-owners are HAN people who were laid off from factories in different cities. Some of them have been there for years leading a poor but simple life.DAY 1 ON ARRIVALExcited, and tired(becaused of the prolonged trip)getting off the bus, we ran into a local tour guide waiting for his group(probably delayed by the mud-flood). From him we got a bargain accomodation(20RMB each night). after laid down our heavy backpacks, we started our search in the town for food, but it's frustrating for there was no special flavor. anyhow, a twice-cooked meal and noodles refreshed my body. On our way back to the hostel, a shop drew my attention. it sold tibetan clothes. i chose a gilet for myself, while my girl asked for a made-to-order. In those gilets, we continued our hunt in the town. our strange dressing style attracted many local eyes on us, and a bunch of local children at our heels. A HAN shop-owner even carefully asked us if we are HAN or TIBETAN.(giggle)finished this day with a comfortable sleep in the hostel, which was small but clean.DAY 2 TO THE KALONGGOU VALLEY TOURIST ATTRACTION Early in the morning,after the daily cleaning task, i stepped out into the yard. At the very moment a snow mountain came into my eyes. With all the gears on my back, we came to bus station, but was told there was no regular bus to the spot which means we had to rent a minibus. Expensive, but it was the only solutio。

Reading comprehension:(2×10=20)Directions: Read the following passages. Make your proper choices and blacken the corresponding letter A, B, C or D on the ANSWER SHEET.(1)Prices determine how resources are to be used. They are also the means by which products and services that are inlimited supply are rationed among buyers. The price system of the United States is a very complex network composed of the prices of all the products bought and sold in the economy as well as those of a myriad(极大数量)of services, including labor, professional transportation, and public-utility services. The interrelationships of all these prices make up the “system” of prices. The price of any particular product or service is linked to a broad, complicated system of prices in which everything seems to depend more or less upon everything else.If one were to ask a group of randomly selected individuals to define “price”, many would reply that price is an amount of money paid by the buyer to the seller of a product or service or in other words, that price is the money value of a product or service as agreed upon in a market transaction. This definition is, of course, valid as far asit goes. For a complete understanding of a price in any particular transaction, however, much more than the amount of money involved must be known. Both the buyer and the seller should be familiar with not only the money amount but with the amount and quality of the product or service to be exchanged, the time and place at which the exchange will take place and payment to be made, the form of money to be used, the credit terms and discounts that are to be appried to the transaction, guarantees on the product or service, delivery terms, return privileges, and other factors. In other words, both buyer and seller should be fully aware of all thefactors that comprise the total “package” being exchanged for the asked-for amount of money in order that they may evaluate a given price.16. What is the best title for the passage?A. The Inherent Weaknesses of the Price System.B. The Complexities of the Price System.C. Credit Terms in Transactions.D. Resource Allocation and the Public Sector.17. According to the passage the price system’ isrelated primarily to ______.A. labor and educationB. transportation and insuranceC. utilities and repairsD. products and services18. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT a factor in the complete understanding of price?A. Instructions that come with a product.B. The quantity of a product.C. The quality of a product.D. Warranties that cover a product.19. In the last sentence of the passage, the word “they” refer to ______.A. return privilegesB. all the factorsC. buyer and sellerD. cash and credit20. The paragraph following the passage most likely discusses ______.A. unusual ways to advertise productsB. types of payment plans for serviceC. theories about how products affect different levels of societyD. how certain elements of a price “package” influence its market value(2)Anyone who has travelled to Amsterdam would probably agree on one thing:Amsterdam’s story is a tale of two cities -- one during the day and a completely different one at night. When the sun is up, the largest city in the Netherlands sits quietly on the Amstel River. You can rent a bicycle, visit the Van Gogh or Anne Frank museum, or take a water taxi. But when the sun goes down, the partying begins. In the big clubs and in coffee shops, tourists gather to hang out, talk politics and smoke.Several areas of the city clearly show the two worldsthat rule Amsterdam. And they’re all within a short cab ride of each other.For example, Dam Square attracts daytime sightseers toits festivals, open markets, concerts and other events. Several beautiful and very popular hotels can be found there. And there’s the Royal Palace and the Magna Plaza shopping mall.But as evening descends on Dam Square so do the party-seekers. Hip hop or funk music begins blaring from Club Paradiso and Club Melkweg. They are two of the most popularclubs in Europe. So if you come, be ready to dance. The clubs don’t shut down until 4 am.And while you’re there, check out the variousinexpensive ways to tour the city. Don’t worry about getting lost. Although Dutch is the official language, most people in Amsterdam speak English and are happy to help you with directidns.And you’ll notice that half the people in the streetsare on bicycles. They rent for US$17 to $20 for a whole day.Amsterdam also has an elaborate canal system. From anywhere between US$2 and $9.50, you can use the canal bus or a water taxi to cruise the “Venice of the North”.You can take in the picturesque canal house architecture:The rows of neat, narrow four-story dwellings of brownstone with large windows are well-worth seeing. Many of them are several centuries old.You might also want to jump out of the canal bus at the Museum Quarter and start walking. Masterpieces by Dutchartists such as Rembrandt, Bruegel, Van Gogh and others areon display at the Van Gogh Museum, the Stedelijk Museum, Rembrandt House and the Rijks Museum.The city has an appreciation of its historic past. One poignant place to visit is the Anne Frank House on Nine Streets. It was there that the young Jewish girl wrote her famous diary during World War II. Visitors can view Anne’s original diary and climb behind the bookcase to the roomwhere she and her family hid from the Nazis for two years.21. Amsterdam is a city ______.A. famous for two talesB. ruled by two principles from two different urban areasC. which is small but elaborate, within a short cab rideD. which is quiet at daytime and noisy at night22. What mode of transportation is NOT suggested by the author in the text?A. By bicycle.B. On foot.C. By taxi.D. By canal bus.23. How many museums can tourists visit in Amsterdam?A. Four.B. Five.C. Six.D. Seven.24. Which of the following statements about Dam Square is NOT true according to the passage?A. Dam Square is a famous shopping center for tourists.B. Dam Square is an attraction to both sightseers and party-seekers.C. Dam Square is a mixing place for both folk music and classic music.D. Two clubs most famous in Europe are located here.25. The word “poignant” in the last paragraph Line 1 means ______.A. touchingB. interestingC. pitifulD. sympatheticⅢ. Cloze:(1×15=15)Directions: Choose the best answer from the choices given to complete the passage and blacken the corresponding letter A, B, C or D on the ANSWER SHEET.The Great Exhibition held in London in 1851 was probably the first show to be called a world fair. Since then there have been 31 universal exhibitions and many cities 26 to have a world fair. In 1928 the International Bureau of Expositions was founded in Paris to co-ordinate these events and ensure that there is only one each year. There are various and interlinked objectives 27 holding a world fair. The stated objectives include encouraging trade, increasing thevisibility of a city and country, developing tourism, 28 economic development and increasing employment, stimulating the re-use of land and 29 improvements, the celebration or a past event, and the entertainment of the masses, 30 the often unstated one of obtaining 31 funds from the higher levels of government. The 32 motive for holding a world fair is to 33 the city, but as well as selling the city, there is also the selling of ideas. Most expos are linked in some way to the notion of the progress of civilization or modernity. Not 34 , Expo 92 in Seville, Spain, had the 35 of discovery. Other themes include education and international understanding. The 36 city usually prepares a special site for the event 37 new buildings and structures of hoped-for architectural distinction and image changing ability are erected. Early examples 38 London’s Crystal Palace and Paris’s Eiffel Tower and a more recent one is Seattle’s Space Needle. Thesestructures will remain a 39 legacy to the area, as will any general infrastructure put in place. The fair itself usually contains exhibitions of both arts and manufactures, with pavilions 40 also by foreign nations. World fairs usually last between five and seven months, but sometimes they last for a whole year.26. A. sought B. have sought C. seek D. has sought27. A. about B. at C. of D. for28.

Reading comprehension: (2 × 10=20)Directions : Read the following passages and make your proper choices.2(1)Of the many interesting sights in Hangzhou, there is besides West Lake the spectacular tide at the mouth of Qiantang River. The tides here are what is called a tidal bore which makes a thrilling sight as it seems to be impelled by such a furious elemental force that it threatens to overwhelm and overpower everything in its way, striking awe in the beholder even as the sky and the sun are being swallowed up. It is said that in the world today only the tidal bore at the mouth of the mighty Amazon in Brazil can be a rival to that at the mouth of Qiantang.The tidal bore of Qiantang has since ancient times been considered a spectacular sight. As early as the fourth century B.C., the ancient philosopher of China Zhuangzi had written about it like this: “ The waters in the Zhe or Crooked River will roll on raising waves high as mountains and towers, creating a thunderous roar and gathering up a force that threatens to engulf the sun and the sky ”. In the Eastern Han Dynasty(25 —220), Wang Chong the thinker, in his Essays of Criticism or Lun'Heng in Chinese, recorded his observations of the tidal bore of Qiantang River like this: “ The tide flows and ebbs with the wax and wane of the moon ”. In ancient China, it was a common practice among men of letters not only to read widely but also to travel extensively. In the course of their travels, many of them had visited lots of famous mountains and magnificent rivers, but they had seen few sights that had impressed them as deeply as the tidal bore of Qiantang. Wielding their inspired pens, some of them had described the spectacular sight of the tidal bore. Poet Li Kuo of the Tang Dynasty(618 —907)had these lines:The bright mid-autumn moon casts its light on a thousand miles of land,The thunderous bore at midnight loud as a million marching men.16. According to the text the word “ bore” here means _____ .A. forceB. waveC. waterD. sight17. The mighty Amazon in Brazil has a tidal bore at its mouth, ____ the Qiantang River's.A. more powerful thanB. less powerful thanC. as powerful asD. no match for18. Since ancient time ____ people have praised the mighty of the tidal bore of Qiantang River.A. manyB. great many3C. a fewD. not a few19. Wang Chong believed that the tidal bore was ____ the moon's wax and wane.A. related toB. a part ofC. moved byD. reported in20. The line in Li Kuo's poem “ The thunderous bore at midnight loud as a million marching men”means the bore is __________ .A. quiet at daytimeB. as powerful as marching menC. as loud as the shouting of marching menD. extremely loud(2)Another large and growing segment of tourism consumers is mature travelers. The face of the industrialized world's population is changing, as are the profiles of individuals who take advantage of the ever-increasing array of leisure activities. Although it is probably a mistake to lump all mature travelers together into a single market, it is important to understand the immense size of this market. A good idea of the changes taking place in the mature segment of the tourism market can be seen by looking at the changes taking place in the United States. The American population is aging and will continue to increase as a percentage of the total population. By the year 2000, over 76 million Americans will be considered mature adults(55 years of age and older). Similar demographic shifts are taking place in many countries throughout the world.The number of senior citizens in the United States who compose the market segment called“ mature travelers ” has been growing at double-digit rates. This rapid growth provides many opportunities for firms who recognize and plan to meet the needs of these travelers. The mature traveler market segment is especially important since these individuals spend 30% more than younger travelers and account for 80% of all commercial vacation travel.Many mature visitors have the time, money, and energy to travel and enjoy family, friends, new sights, adventures and active lifestyle. They value excellent food while vacationing more than any other age group. They are less interested in bars and nightlife activities than other age groups. They are most likely to visit casinos. Mature travelers usually purchase package tours and take cruise vacations.International travelers are a large and growing segment of tourism consumers. Travel to foreign countries by international travelers has been growing at a rapid pace. Statistics show that in 2000,4Shanghai received some 1.8 million foreign visitors while some 100,000 traveled from Shanghai to other countries. Singapore saw 31,231 Chinese travelers for the period January—September, 2000. The number of tourists applying to tour the three countries(Japan, Australia and New Zealand) is increasing fast.21.

Since the 1990s, computer technology has been more widely applied to tourism in China where ithas brought increasing economic benefit. Some large travel agencies are promoting the use of computers and the Internet in their operations, management and overseas promotion. ChinaInternational Travel Service(CITS), the first to use computer management in China's tourismindustry, has installed computers of various types to sell tourist products, quote prices, make reservations, work out schedule, arrange various services, settle tourist accounts and other financial matters. CITS China information goes out via Australia's Worldlink to more than 250,000 computer terminals worldwide.72. Like the conference business, the exhibition industry appears to be growing. Between 1994 and1998 the European industry, as indicated by exhibitor participation, was growing by over 4 per centa year. In Germany, the modern Messe ( 会展中心) of Germany evolved at the beginning of thecentury from the centuries-old trade fairs. The Germans have maintained their lead through the development of specialist trade fairs as well as the continued development of their facilities. Their strength is not in the number of shows, but in their large size and international character. Germany is, of course, an important industrial country and it could be expected that there would be some correlation between exhibitions and industrial development. Frequently, as in Detroit in the USA, there is a link between trade fairs and the industries which are important in the local region.8。

Since the local government decided to accelerate development of tourism in 1998,many developers rushed here to build villas, hotels and holiday resorts.Facilities in the area are currently able to accommodate 2,000 visitors a day.Recent statistics show that the nature reserve received 360,000 tourists last year, and generated 45 million yuan in earnings. During the first seven months of this year, the area received more than 300,000 tourists, up 25 percent over the same period last year. Earnings also increased by 64 percent over the same period last year.But excessive and disorderly development of the area, which largely resulted from a lack of unified planning and management, has caused many negative impacts. Construction and logging have damaged the grasslands and vegetation there. In addition,the improper treatment of sewage, garbage and exhaust gas has created a serious environmental problem. Even worse, some developers introduced Karaoke and Disco into the scenic area, causing unbearable noise pollution in the originally tranquil place.As the disorderly development drew increasing concern from society, the local government was forced to take swift action to save the nature reserve. Early last year, the local government invited a group of experts from the Chinese Academy of Sciences, at a cost 1.1 million yuan, to formulate an ecological rehabilitation plan for the area.As an important part of the plan, all the holiday resorts and hotels in the area will be bulldozed. In future, all tourists will have to enter the reserve in environment-friendly vehicles, on horseback or on foot. All structures not built with natural wood will be demolished, and tour boats will be banned from using liquid fuel.Some of the buildings near Hanas Lake have already been dismantled. Sewage treatment facilities are under construction in the new holiday resort in Jiadengyu Forest Park. A 58-km3highway, linking Burqin County and Jiadengyu, will be completed before the beginning of the busy tourism season next year.21.The beauty of the Hanas Nature Reserve is compared with the beauty of ______.A. the HimalayasB. the AlpsC. the Mount EverestD. the Fuji Mountain22.Who is to blame for the disorderly development of Hanas Nature Reserve?A. the local governmentB. some developersC. construction and logging companiesD. car users23.There are ______ pollution in the Hanas Nature Reserve originally?A. air and waterB. environment and waterC. air and noiseD. environment and noise24.In future, tourists will not be allowed to enter in reserve ______.A. on horsebackB. on footC. on motorcyclesD. in environment-friendly cars25.What is the best title for the passage?A.

Development of Hanas Nautre Reserve(2)Restaurants generally fit into following categories and consumers:The gourmet restaurant caters to the needs of connoisseurs and sophisticated diners. The dishes and service are very quality so that these restaurants are the most expensive and luxurious of all food service establishments.The specialty restaurant usually offers a limited variety or style of food. It may be specialize in seafood or in a particular kind of national food. Also it may depend on the atmosphere, decor, or personality of the owner to attract customers.The convenience restaurant services customers who want to eat in hurry and are most interested in fast service, cleanliness, and low price. Fast food is an example which can be prepared, served, and eaten quickly ;probably the most typical and famous fast food restaurants, McDonald are locating many countries and places over the world.Another way to categorize restaurants is by the kind of service. They are table service, counter service, self-service and carry out. In table service restaurants, customers are seated at tables where they are served by a waiter or waitress. In counter restaurants, customers sit at a counter and are served either by the person who prepares the food or by a waiter or waitress. A self-service restaurants is frequently called a buffer or cafeteria; there cus-Italian. Most areas of the world rely heavily on regional cuisine that depends on local availability, seasonal prices, and traditional customers. The choice of cuisine is an important one for the customer, who often makes it unconsciously and sometimes makes it too consciously; it is a crucial choice for the restaurateur because it may mean the difference between success and failure in business. Before a new restaurant opens the manager or owner has decided on its basic character, including such features as its location, size, cuisine, staff, and equipment.426.The meaning of the word “decor”is most similar to that of .A. furnitureB. surroundingsC. decorationD. display27.If a VIP wants to show his status he can eat in a ______ restaurant.A. gourmetB. convenienceC. popularD. specialty28.McDonald is a kind of ______ restaurant.A. gourmetB. convenienceC. popularD. specialty29.If a person wants to serve himself and decide what he wants to eat, he can eat in the ______ restaurants.A. table serviceB. counter serviceC. self-serviceD. carry out30.If a person. driving a car doesn’t want to eat in the restaurants, he can buy food from a ______ restaurant.A. table serviceB. counter serviceC. self-serviceD. carry outⅢ.Fill in the blanks with the proper phrases given below.

The majority of studies have been conducted for special purposes and have used narrow operational definitions to suit particular needs of researchers or government officials; these studies have not encompassed a systems approach. Consequently, many definitions of “tourism”and”the tourist’ are based on distance traveled, the length of time spent, and the purpose of the trip. This makes it difficult to gather statistical information that scholars can use to develop a database, describe the tourism phenomenon, and do analyses.(2) As a site of historical interest, Taishan has been a preferred place of visit for centuries. Dating back to the Yin and Shang periods(1766-1122 BC),Chinese forefathers established five directions of north, south, east, west and center. The east, where the sun rises, presents life’s fertility with the end of winter and coming of spring. Taishan, located in a coastal province in eastern China, has been regarded as a propitious place. Ancient emperors prayed for the country’s prosperity and peach by offering sacrifices to Heaven and Earth on Taishan. According to historical records, prior to the Western Zhou Dynasty (1122-771BC),72 monarchs climbed the mountain to perform sacrifices. They were then followed by Qinshihuang, China’s first emperor, and then the6emperors of the Han, Tang, Song and Qing Dynasties.7。

It is the oldest continent in the sense that it has altered relatively little since life appeared on earth. Thousands of years before the explorers Abel Tasman and James Cook sailed into the South Pacific, the aborigines had crossed the hand bridge from Asia formed by the Malay Archipelago and had spread throughout the mainland and Tasmania. When Capt. Arthur Philip of the British Royal Navy landed with the First Fleet at Botany in 1788, the event that marks the true beginning of modern Australia, there were probably not more than 300,000 Aborigines altogether.The most striking characteristics of the vast 3,000,000 square-mile landmass are its isolation, its low relief, and the aridity of its surface. Its isolation from other continents explains much of the strangeness of Australian plant and animal life; its low relief results from the long and extensive erosive action of the forces of wind, rain and the heat of the sun during the great periods of geological time when the continental mass was elevated well above sea level. A member of the Commonwealth of Nations, **monwealth of Australia is a prosperous, independent nation under one government. Like Canada and the United States, contemporary Australia is a political federation with a central government (the Commonwealth) and, six constituent states (New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, South Australia, Western Australia, and Tasmania) , each of which has its own government enjoying a limited sovereignty. There are also two internal territories: the Northern Territory was established as a self-governing territory in 1978, and the Australian Capital Territory, seat of the federal capital city Canberra, is administered directly by the Commonwealth, which also governs the external territories of Norfolk Island, Cocos Islands, Christmas Island, Ashmore and Cartier Islands, Coral Sea Islands, and Heard and McDonald Islands and claims the Australian Antarctic Territory. The Cocos Islands was a non-self-governing territory until 1984 ,when it was integrated with Australia following an act of self determination approved by the Cocos Malay people.16. The true beginning of modern Australia took place in ______.A. 1788B. 1842C. 1978D. 198417. Which of the following became a self-governing territory most recently?A. Northern Territory.B. Cocos Islands.C. New South Wales.D. Tasmania.18. Where did the **e from?A. North America.B. South America.C. Africa.D. Asia.19. What type of climate does most of Australia have?A. Dry.B. Wet.C. Frigid.D. Jungle.20. What country colonized Australia?A. France.B. Germany.C. Great Britain.D. The United States.(2)The Great Wall of China is the longest structure ever built. Its length is about 4,000 miles (6,400 kilometers), and it was erected entirely by hand. The wall crosses northern China between the east coast and north-central China.Over the centuries, various rulers built walls to protect their northern border against invaders. Some of the walls stood on or near the site of the Great Wall. Most of what is now called the Great Wall dates from the Ming dynasty(1368-1644). Parts of the Great Wall have crumbled through the years. However, much of it remains, and some sections have been restored. The main part of the wall is about 2,150 miles(3,460 kilometers)long. Additional branches make up the rest of its length.One of the highest sections of the Great Wall, on Mount Badaling, near Beijing, rises to about 35 feet(11 meters)high. This section is about 25 feet(7.6 meters)wide at its base and nearly 20 feet(6 meters) at the top. Watchtowers stand about 100 to 200 yards(91 to 180 meters)apart along the wall. The towers, about 40 feet (12 meters) high, once served as lookout posts.Written records indicate that the Chinese built walls along their borders as early as the 600's B.C. Emperor Shi Huangdi of the Qin dynasty (221-206 B. C. )is traditionally regarded as the first ruler to conceive of, and build, a Great Wall. Most of the Qin wall was north of the present-day wall. Shi Huangdi had the wall built by connecting new walls with older ones. Building continued during later dynasties, including the Han (202 B. C. - 220 A.D. ) and the Sui (581 - 618 ).By the time the Ming dynasty began in 1368, much of the wall had fallen into ruin. In response to the growing threat of a Mongol invasion, the Ming government began building a major wall in the late 1400's. This wall included most of what remains today. Like earlier ones, it protected China from minor attacks but provided little defense against a major invasion.Through the centuries, much of the Great Wall again collapsed. However, the Chinese have done restoration work since 1949. The wall no longer serves the purpose of defense, but it attracts many visitors. Tourists from around the **e to see the wall.

The saddest aspect of mass tourism has been brought recently to the attention of the public: it seems that the great number of visitors is destroying the treasures that they enjoy most. Under millions of feet, ancient stones wear out, ancient floors break down. Parts of the palace of Versailles may have to be closed to the public in order to preserve them, and some European caves, famous for their thirty-thousand-year-old paintings, have already been closed because the paintings were damaged by human respiration. There **e a time when only specialists in art, history, or archaeology will be allowed near the treasures of the past. Perhaps we'd better hurry to see them; perhaps we'd better take a tour soon.72. Professional travelers are similar to business travelers in many ways, although this type of travel is more elastic than business travel. Professional travel is built around the meeting and convention markets. These markets have grown as transportation, especially by air, has become more available and affordable. As professional travel continues to grow, new and expanded meeting and convention facilities have been developed to satisfy this increasing demand. Along with this growth, new management challenges have arisen to serve this specialized market. Some of the key market segments for meeting participants or attendees are associations, businesses, exhibitions and trade shows, religious organizations, political parties, and governments.。

It is nothing for a big, strong schoolboy to elbow an elderly woman aside in the dash for the last remaining seat on the tube or bus, much less stand up and offer his seat to her, as he ought. In fact, it is saddening to note that if a man does offer his seat to an older woman, it is nearly always a continental man or one from the older generation.This question of giving up seats in public transport is much argued about by young men who say that, since women have claimed equality, they no longer deserve to be treated with courtesy, and that those who go out to work should take their turn in the rat race like anyone else. Women have never claimed to be physically as strong as men. Even if it is not agreed, however, that young men should stand up for younger women, the fact remains that courtesy should be shown to the old, the sick and the burdened. Are we really so lost to all ideals of unselfishness that we can sit there indifferently reading the paper or a book, saying to ourselves "**e, first served, " while a gray haired woman, a mother with a young child or a cripple stands? Yet this is all too often seen.Conditions in travel are really very hard on everyone, we know, but hardship is surely no excuse. Sometimes one wonders what would have been the behavior of these stout young men in packed refugee train or a train on its way to a prisoner camp during the war. Would they have considered it only right and their proper due to keep the best places for themselves then?Older people, tired and irritable from a day's work, are not angels at all. Many a brisk argument or an insulting quarrel breaks out as the weary queues push and shove each other to get on buses and tubes. One **mend this, of course, but one does feel there is just a little more excuse.If cities are to remain pleasant places to live in at all, however, it seems urgent, not only **munications in transport should be improved, but also **munication between human beings should be kept smooth and polite. All over cities, it seems that people are too tired and too rushed to be polite. Shop assistants won't bother to assist, taxi drivers shout at each other as they dash dangerously round corners, bus conductors pull the bell before their desperate passengers have had time to get on or off the bus, and so on and so forth. It seems to us that it is up to the young and strong to do their small part to stop such deterioration.16. According to the passage, we could expect good manners from ______.A. Englishmen in LondonB. a man from FranceC. men in big modern cities in EnglandD. men only in metropolitan cities17. What is the writer's opinion concerning courteous manners toward women?A. Women have claimed equality and no longer need to be treated differently from men.B. It is considered old fashioned for young men to give up their seats for young women.C. Lady First should be universally practiced.D. Special consideration should be shown to women.18. According to the writer, communication between human beings would be smoother if ______.A. people were more considerate to each otherB. life were easier and **fortableC. women were treated with more courtesyD. public transport could be improved19. The italicized word "deterioration" in the last paragraph probably means "______".A. worsening of the general situationB. lowering of the moral standardsC. declining of the courtesy to womenD. spreading of evil conduct20. It could be inferred that the best remedy for the hard travel conditions in city would be ______.A. to attach significance to the moral education of young peopleB. to treat people, be they young or old, with courtesy and sympathyC. to demand everyone do his part not to be impolite to each otherD. to improve the means of transportation and the public, morality(2)In recent years, we have seen great progress in house building. The type of houses found in a certain part of the world depends to a certain extent on the building materials available there. Countries where stone is abundant tend to have more stone houses than a place where there is plenty of timber for example. However, climatic conditions affect the houses built to a greater extent.In equatorial countries like Singapore and Malaysia, two main factors are responsible for the type of houses built: the heat of the sun and the fierceness of rainstorms. Our houses are light and airy but have steep roofs. In some places, houses are built on stilts because they may be in lowlying areas which get flooded easily.In a hot and dry country such as Arabia, the houses are often box-shaped. They have thick stone walls which are painted white. White surfaces radiate heat while dark surfaces absorb it. The houses have no windows, only gaps with shutters over them. Even the door openings are very small and narrow, it is cool inside such houses. The roofs are also flat, so that when the sun goes down, one can sit on the roof and catch any cool breeze that is blowing. Sometimes, a water tank may be placed on the roof to catch the little rain that falls.In cold regions, where there is heavy snow, the roofs of the houses slope steeply so that the snow can slide off easily. If the roofs were fiat, the snow would build up and the roofs might cave in under the weight. The houses also have thick stone walls so that the cold is kept out.Some countries are more likely to be affected by earthquakes. In such places, the houses aremade of light building materials. If the houses collapse in an earthquake, few people will get hurt and less damage is caused.In some parts of the world, people take their homes along with them as they travel. These people are called nomads. The Bedouins of Arab lands wander over the desert, setting up tents wherever they stop to rest.21. Houses in equatorial countries ______.A. are light and airyB. have steep roofsC. are always built on stiltsD. are built to shelter from the harsh elements22.

The traveler, then, is better understood and better appealed to if he is recognized as a person consuming products and services. Seeing the traveler in this manner will result in a change of attitude on the part of the observer and enable the marketer to provide a better product or service to the traveler. A second more tangible benefit to be gained from this approach relates to the idea of prepotency. If one accepts Maslow's idea of prepotency--that lower-level needs should be satisfied to some extent before the satisfaction of higher-level needs becomes a concerns--we would expect that products and services, including vacations, which are targeted towards the satisfaction of lower-level needs, would be regarded as more of a necessity than a luxury and would, as such, be more resilient to external pressures of time and money.72. As China's economy shifts to a more market system, the domestic travel industry will face in creasing challenges in a more **petitive environment. This will require domestic travel services to constantly study their market conditions, design travel products according to the needs and wantsof tourists, and sell their travel products effectively to potential markets. A successful domestic tourism industry in China relies on two levels of coordination and operation. National and provincial governments need to monitor regional trends in domestic travel patterns and develop measures for guiding domestic travel growth. At the individual business level, domestic travel services need to implement systematic management practices and operations. China can only develop a successful domestic tourism industry if there is a well-coordinated effort between the government and the private travel industry.。
