Reading comprehension:(2×10=20)Directions:Read the following passages and make your proper choices.(1)A report consistently brought back by visitors to the US is how friendly,courteous,and helpful most Americans were to them. To be fair,this observation is also frequently made of Canada and Canadians should best be considered North Americans. There are of course exceptions. Small-minded officials,rude waiters,and ill-mannered taxi drivers are hardly unknown in the US. Yet it is an observation made so frequently that it deserves comment.For a long period of time and in many parts of the country,a traveler was a welcome break in an otherwise dull existence. Dullness and loneliness were common problems of the families whogenerally lived distant from one another. Strangers and travelers were welcome sources of diversion,and brought news of the outside world.The harsh realities of the frontier also shaped this tradition of hospitality. Someone traveling alone,if hungry,injured,or ill,often had nowhere to turn except to the nearest cabin or settlement. It was not a matter of choice for the traveler or merely a charitable impulse on the part of the settlers. It reflected the harshness of daily life:if you didn’t take in the stranger and take care of him,there was no one else who would. And someday,remember,you might be in the same situation.Today there are many charitable organizations which specialize in helping the weary traveler. Yet,the old tradition of hospitality to strangers is still very strong in the US,especially in the smaller cities and towns away from the busy tourist trails. “I was just traveling through,got talking with this American,and pretty soon he invited me home for dinner -- amazing.”Such observations reported by visitors to the US are not uncommon,but are not always understood properly. The casual friendliness of many Amricans should be interpreted neither as superficial nor as artificial,but as the result of a historically developed cultural tradition.As is true of any developed society,in America a complex set of cultural signals,assumptions,and conventions underlies all social interrelationships. And,of course,speaking a language does not necessarily mean that someone understands social and cultural patterns. Visitors who fail to “translate” cultural meanings properly often draw wrong conclusions. For example,when an American uses the word “friend”,the cultural implications of the word may be quite different from those it has in the visitor’s language and culture. It takes more than a brief encounter on a bus to distinguish between courteous convention and individual interest. Yet,being friendly is a virtue that many Americans value highly and expect from both neighbors and strangers.16. In the eyes of visitors from the outside world,______.A. rude taxi drivers are rarely seen in the USB. small-minded officials deserve a serious commentC. those who are not so friendly deserve a commentD. Canadians are as friendly as their neighbors17. The italicized phrase “take in”(Para.3) most probably means “______”.A. appreciateB. admitC. accommodateD. absorb18. It could be inferred from the last paragraph that ______.A. culture exercises an influence over social interrelationshipB. courteous convention and individual interest are interrelatedC. various virtues display themselves exclusively among friendsD. social interrelationships equal the complex set of cultural conventions19. Families in frontier settlements used to entertain strangers ______.A. out of a charitable impulseB. in view of their long-distance travelC. to improve their hard lifeD. to add some flavor to their own daily life20. The tradition of hospitality to strangers ______.A. tends to be superficial and artificialB. is generally well kept up in North AmericaC. is always understood properlyD. has something to do with the busy tourist trails(2)One of the things I really looked forward to in my retirement was the weekly shopping expedition. I imagined pushing the trolley slowly,around the supermarket and picking out odditems that took my fancy. But,alas,my innocent dreams were rudely shattered.First it is necessary to secure a shopping trolley. Carefully designed not only to hold all shapes and sizes of purchases but also all ages and types of small children,a single trolley is hard to get out of the line of trolleys where it is parked. Each trolley defies separation from its fellows without sharp jerks or the assistance of two strong men.The next lesson is that women never follow a logical route when shopping. Your wife has disappeared. After ten minutes of searching,when you eventually find her in a far comer,she enquires rather tersely:“Where have you been all this time,dear?”Supermarket managers are sent on courses to learn how to tempt the customers and persuade them to buy goods they do not really need,at prices they are not able to afford. As a newcomer,I was a sucker for their clever techniques and took many goods off the shelves. But my innocence was soon curbed by my wife. “Put it back,dear.”“You’ve tried that before and didn’t like it”. “No,it’s too expensive.” I soon learnt to be a wheeler of trolleys and not a dealer in goods.But the most frightening hazard is supermarket trolleys driven by the so-called weaker sex. These women adhere to no code and give no quarter,and constant evasive action is necessary to avoid skinned knuckles,crushed toes or bruised shins. Their usual parking methods are either sideways across the aisles,or side by side with a friend to exchange gossip,and a polite “Excuse me” from traffic usually meets with no response.After the week’s groceries have been collected the last trial is passing through the checkout. Never join the shortest queue. It usually contains several shoppers who pay by writing out a personal check and who wait until all their purchases have been totaled up before beginning a frantic search through bulging handbags for elusive checkbooks. When the book eventually emerges,the customer never knows the date,asks again for the forgotten total and omits to put the address on the back.Don’t be fooled,either,by thinking that this is the end of the exercise. When the check hasbeen carefully examined by the cashier a bell rings,a red light flashed overhead and there is a further wait until a supervisor arrives to confirm that the check can be accepted. Then it is our turn and the checkout girl is so quick and efficient that we don’t have time to get out own checkbook ready. But the people who are packing our shopping are kind and give us cheery smiles.When we emerge once more into the great outside world eggs are running down my trousers. Just before the eggs are crushed by the collision between two trolleys,I hear the voice of my wife call out:“Oops,dear,mind the trolley.” Shopping!21. What does the author want to tell us in the passage?A. The weekly shopping expedition in his retirement was exciting.B. His joy of shopping was broken by many annoyances.C. It is necessary to know how to use the shopping trolley properly.D. People easily get lost in a big supermarket.22. Which of the following is NOT true of a weekly shopping?A. It is difficult to take a trolley from the line of trolleys.B. It is difficult to go shopping with a woman following an illogical route.C. It is difficult to resist the temptation of the promotion of goods.D. It is difficult to avoid hurting the women.23. The italicized word “curbed” (Para.4) probably means “______”.A. correctedB. blamedC. checkedD. shattered24. In the eyes of the author,supermarket managers are only too pleased ______.A. to introduce the function of their goodsB. to promote their goods to the customersC. to deal with the checks in doubtD. to help the customers find the goods they need25. According to the passage,the author’s attitude towards women is ______.A. ironicalB. logicalC. elusiveD. respectiveⅢ.

But most European tourists are looking for a 28 beach to lie 29 .Northern Europeans are willing to pay a lot of money and 30 a lot of inconveniences for the sun because they have so little of it. Residents of cities like London,spend a lot of their winter in the dark 31 the days are so short,and much of the rest of the year in the rain. This is the reason the Mediterranean has always 32 them.

Italy’s 30,000 hotels are 35 solid every summer. And 13 million people 36 out on French beaches,parks,and roadsides. Spain’s long sandy coastline attracts more people than anywhere 37 .But there are 38 that the area is getting more tourism than it can handle.

Passage translation:(10×2=20)Directions:Translate the following passages into Chinese.71. In a small hotel,all the functions may be combined and the duties performed by one person,be it the owner or an employee. The larger the hotel and the greater the volume,the more staff is needed to service the guests properly. The major convention hotels,with 1000 or more employees,require more supervisors,thus creating more departments and,as a result,assigningmore specific duties to each employee.Hotels vary not only in size but in character,in type of clientele,and in scope of activities. Every function exists,but priorities differ from hotel to hotel. The management of each must determine the departments,and the number of employees in each,needed for its own operation.72. Generally there are two types of tour guides,one in charge of local sightseeing and the other accompanying a group throughout its travels and making all the arrangements for the group. In China,they are usually known as local guide and national guide. The sightseeing guide must be familiar with the points of interest that he is showing to the visitors. He usually gives prepared talk but he must also be prepared to answer a lot of questions. And of course he has to deal with any problems that occur during the tour. These may include bad weather,sudden illness,an accident and so on. It would be impossible to name everything that might happen. A sightseeing guide needs two qualifies---an outgoing personality and language skill.The tour guide who stays with a group throughout its trip needs these two qualifies. He also needs to have a thorough knowledge of the workings of all kinds of transportation systems and regulations that the tourists will meet when going from one country to another.提供5万集管理视频课程下载,详情查看:...../zz/提供2万GB高清管理视频课程硬盘拷贝,详情查看:...../shop/2万GB高清管理视频课程目录下载:...../1GB.rar高清课程可提供免费体验,如有需要请于咱们联系。

Reading comprehension: (2 × 10=20)Directions: Read the following passages and make your proper choices.(1)Mount Ali has an elevation of some 3 000 metres above sea level. Here the temperature drops as one ascends higher and higher so that in a short couple of hours one can experience the weather changes in all the four seasons and admire the kind of scenery and plant life peculiar to the climate of, so to say, all the latitudes.A light railway and a highway thread their way uphill through tree-clad slopes to the very summit of Mount Ali. The railway is 72 km long, beginning from the City of Jiayi and terminating at Zhaoping. On its way, the train has to cross 86 bridges, 66 tunnels and more than 30 gully crossings.Travellers in the train crawling its way slowly up the mountain can have a real good time, feasting their eyes on the scenery and chatting to each other as the mood carries them. After the train leaves the North Gate Station of Jiayi, it runs on the plains at the foot of the mountain and one sees through the window lush green bamboo groves and fields of densely grown sugar cane.As the train threads its way in the rugged hilly country crossing one clear stream after another, one would feel as though he had entered a world as ethereal as that in a Chinese landscape painting, passing now a woodland scene and now a secluded ravine with a quiet-flowing mountain brook. The peace of mind one enjoys while traveling in level country is suddenly shattered by the sight of precipitous cliffsides. While the train makes it way in this pictorial world of Mount Ali, travelers cannot help but marvel at the magic wonders of nature and the wisdom and courage of the railway builders.16. Mount Ali is some 3 000 metres high, but it is easy to reach the peak because you can get there by______.A. airplaneB. helicopterC. coachD. bicycle17. Within a couple of hours visitors can see plant life that ______ four seasons.A. experienceB. representC. attractD. peculiar18.

As the train threads its way in the rugged hilly country the visitors can enjoy______.A. Chinese landscape paintingsB. the peace of mindC. a quiet-flowing brookD. a pictorial world of Mount Ali(2)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.Many futurists have also predicted a decline in business and professional travel with the introduction of teleconferencing. However, people continue to have a strong desire to meet each other face-to-face. Although teleconferencing serves to introduce people to each other electronically, they will eventually want to meet in person to interact and network. This need for personal contact and interaction has allowed the business travel market to grow even in the face of advancing technology.In response to the needs of the business travel segment, tourism service suppliers have offered a wide array of services and benefits. Airlines instituted frequent-flier programs and service upgrades including business class and provided corporate pricing, discounts and rebates, travel lounges, and preferred check-ins. Amtrak developed club service with reserved seating, snack and beverage service, telephones, and conference rooms on some trains. Car rental companies, following the lead of airlines, established frequent-renter programs, which provided corporate pricing, discounts, rebates, upgrades, and special check-in procedures. Hotels and other lodging properties have provided similar benefits to business travelers including corporate pricing, discounts, and rebates; special floors and sections including business centers, frequent stay programs, and upgrades.21. A lot of professional travelers are planned to attend some kind of______.A. associationsB. political partiesC. conferencesD. specialized markets22. As a result of modern communication facilities some people believe that business and professional travel may ______.A. developB. reduceC. disappearD. grow23. In order to attract professional travelers the airlines offer them many kinds of______.A. special floorsB. discountsC. business centersD. beneficial treatments24. Electronic technique helps achieve the purpose of professional activities, but people have a strong desire to meet each other ______.A. in businessB. in publicC. in officeD. in person25. From the article we can come to the conclusion that professional travel will not______.A. declineB. increaseC. advanceD. stopⅢ.

Tourist facilities and services have been expanded and developed around the world to meet the rising demand of travelers from developed countries. But, the unbalanced levels of economic growth among different countries have led to disparities in tourism development. In developing countries, the low level of economic livelihood restricts the development of a domestic tourism industry. This is true even in those countries with a strong international tourism sector. Most of the people in the developing world are still struggling to make ends meet. Thus, leisure travel for them remains a distant dream.72. Generally there are two types of tour guides, one in charge of local sightseeing and the other accompanying a group throughout its travels and making all the arrangements for the group. In China, they are usually known as local guide and national guide. The sightseeing guide must be familiar with the points of interest that he is showing to the visitors. He usually gives prepared talk but he must also be prepared to answer a lot of questions. And of course he has to deal with any problems that occur during the tour. These may include bad weather, sudden illness, an accident and so on. It would be impossible to name everything that might happen. A sightseeing guide needs two qualities—an outgoing personality and language skill.。

In more recent times, it was the ________ themselves who developed the first air package tours.A. travel retailersB. travel agentsC. travel directorsD. travel principalsII. Reading comprehension: (2 × 10=20)Directions: Read the following passages and make your proper choices.(1)If the old maxim that the customer is always right still has meaning, then the airlines that fly the world’s busiest air route between London and Paris have a fight on their hands.The Eurostar train service linking the UK and French capitals via the Channel Tunnel is winning the customers in increasing numbers. In late May, it carries its one millionth passengers, having run only a limited service between London, Paris and Brussels since November 1994, starting with two trains a day in each direction to Paris and Brussels. By 1997, the company believes that it will be carrying 10 million passengers a year, and continue to grow from there.From July, Eurostar steps its service to nine trains each way between London and Paris, and five between London and Brussels. Each train carries almost 800 passengers, 210 of them in first class.The airlines estimate that they will initially lose around 15% to 20% of their London-Paris traffic to the railways once Eurostar starts a full service later this year, with 15 trains a day each way. A similar service will start from London to Brussels. The damage will be limited, however, the airlines believe, with passenger numbers returning to previous levels within two to three years.In the short term, the damage caused by the 1 million people-level traveling between Londonand Paris and Brussels on Eurostar trains means that some air services are already suffering. Someof the major carriers say that their passenger numbers are down by less than 5% and point to their rivals --- particularly Air France --- as having suffered the problems. On the Brussels route, the railway company had less success, and the airlines report anything from around a 5% drop to no visible decline in traffic.The airlines’ optimis m on returning traffic levels is based on historical precedent. British Midland, for example, points to its experience on Heathrow Leeds Bradford service which saw passenger numbers decrease by 15% when British Rail electrified and modernized the railway linebetween London and Yorkshire. Two years later, travel had risen between the two destinations to the point where the airline was carrying record numbers of passengers.16. The phrase “have a fight on their hands” (Para. 1) probably means “ ________ ”.A. have to deal with the situation seriouslyB. have to declare war on the railway serviceC. have to decide whether to fight or notD. have no problem to win the fight17. The airlines are confident in the fact that ________.A. they are more powerful than the Eurostar serviceB. their total passenger loss won’t go beyond a drop of 5%C. their traffic levels will return in 2 to 3 yearsD. traveling by rail can never catch up with traveling by air18. The railway Brussels route is brought forth to show that ________.A. the Eurostar service is not doing good businessB. the airlines can well compete with the railwayC. the Eurostar train service only caused very little damageD. only some airlines, such as Air France, are suffering19. British Midland is mentioned to ________.A. provide a comparison with EurostarB. support the airlines’ optimismC. prove the inevitable drop of air passengersD. call for electrification and modernization of the railway20. The purpose of the last paragraph is to ________ .A. praise the airlines’ clear-mindednessB. advise the airlines to follow British Midland as their modelC. propose a reduction of London/Paris flightsD. show why the airlines are still hopeful(2)The tourist trade is booming. With all this coming and going, you’d expect greater understanding to develop between the nations of the world. Not a bit of it! Superb systems of communication by air, sea and land make it possible for us to visit each other’s country at a moderate cost. What was once the ‘grand tour’, reserved for only the very rich, is now within everybody’s grasp. The package tour and chartered flights are not to be sneered at. Modern travelers enjoy a level of comfort which the lords and ladies on grand tours in the old days co uldn’t have dreamed of. But What’s the sense of this mass exchange of populations if the nations of the world remain basically ignorant of each other?Many tourist organizations are directly responsible for this state of affairs. They deliberately set out toprotect their clients from too much contact with the local population. The modern tourist leads a nursed, sheltered life. He lives at international hotels, where he eats his international food and sips his international drink while he gazes at the natives from a distance. Conducted tours to places of interest are carefully censored. The tourist is allowed to see only what the organizers want him to see and no more. A strict schedule makes it impossible for the tourist to wander off on his own; and anyway, language is always a barrier, so he is only too happy to be protected in this way. At its very worst, this leads to a new and hideous kind of colonization. The summer quarters of the inhabitants are temporarily reestablished on the island of Corfu. Blackpool is recreated at Torremolinos where the traveler goes not to eat paella, but fish and chips. The sad thing about this situation is that it leads to the persistence of national stereotypes. We don’t see the people of other nations as they really are, but as we have been brought up to believe they are. You can test this for yourself. Take five nationalities, say, French, German, English, American and Italian. Now in your mind, match them with these five adjectives: musical, amorous, cold, pedantic, native. Far from providing us with any insight into the national characteristics of the peoples just mentioned, these adjectives actually act as barriers. So when you set out on your travels, the only characteristics you notice are those which confirm your preconceptions. You come away with the highly unoriginal and inaccurate impression that, say, ‘Anglo-Saxons are hypocrites’ or that ‘Latin peoples shout a lot’. You only have to make a few foreign friends to understand how absurd and harmful national stereotypes are. But how can you make foreign friends when the tourist trade does its best to prevent you?Carried to an extreme, stereotypes can be positively dangerous. Wild generalizations stir up racial hatred and blind us to the basic fact. That all people are human. We are all similar to each other and at the same time all unique.21. Which of the following best states the main idea of the passage?A. Conducted tour is comfortable but dull.B. Tourism has become more convenient.C. Tourism helps understand each other.D. Tourism confirms national stereotypes.22. Which of the following is true of the grand tour nowadays?A. It’s so expensive that only the rich can enjoy it.B. It’s outdated and few people are interested in it.C. It charges high but offers moderate service.D. It can be actually enjoyed by everybody.23. According to the author, the national stereotype of Anglo-Saxons is that ________.A. they seem to be amorousB. they seem to be morally goodC. they are generous and kindD. they are cold and pedantic24. The purpose of the passage is to point out that ________.A. conducted tour is too comfortableB. national stereotypes should be changedC. the way of touring should be changedD. traveling only confirms your preconception25.

Passage translation: (10×2=20)Directions: Translate the following passages into Chinese.71. Tr avel and tourism has become a strategic industry in China’s development toward a “socialist market economy.” A decade of development has yielded both positive experiences and hard lessons. Our country is still probing better ways of developing a strong travel and tourism industry which can compete successfully in its regional and global markets. Our country, therefore, faces both opportunities and challenges in developing its tourism to the next level. Our tourism has a bright future, although it will require arduous efforts to develop it effectively. The opportunities and challenges that our country faces are discussed, and the strategies are identified as recommendations for future development.72. Passenger transportation, whether on land, over the water, or in the air is the lifeblood of the tourism industry. Water transportation was the first mode of transportation to move travelers rapidly over long distances, but many other modes have evolved to meet time and distance requirements.Travelers have the choice of plying the waves, riding the rails, cruising the highways, or soaring through the skies. Which one they choose will depend on where they are going, their budget, and the amount of flexibility they desire.。

Reading comprehension: (2×10=20)Directions: Read the following passages and make your proper choices.(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 for318. Since ancient time ______ people have praised the mighty of the tidal bore of Qiantang River.A. manyB. great manyC. 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.4International 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, Shanghai 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. According to the passage demographic shifts mean the change of ______.A. populationB. age structureC. people's ageD. mature adults22. This article was written ______.A. by 2000B. before 2000C. after 2000D. in 200023. Mature travelers are very important part of tourism because of their ______.A. matureB. sizeC. wealthD. age24.

Good service is 27 a matter of attitudes and begins with the attitude of the management. If the manager is dedicated 28 giving good friendly service and is 29 with employees and guests, then this 30 the employees to be friendly and to make the 31 feel welcome.Very few people can continually carry a smile and be friendly to everybody they meet 32 they are constantly trained and encouraged to do so. One of management's most important jobs is5to have a 33 training program for service personnel. There are many training aids available today from 34 sources. Even the smallest and 35 remote food operation can have a good training program.Food service operations 36 from the classical French restaurant to the snack bar, each 37 an appropriate level of good service. A primary factor in all good service is that employees must be trained to recognize the 38 of the guest. They must realize that their livelihood depends upon being courteous and friendly. The manager of any restaurant should realize that the guest likes to be recognized. 39 practical, the manger should learn guests' names, stop by their tables when they are having dinner, and have polite conversation with them. If a problem 40 ,a little personal contact by the manager can often resolve it and the guest will leave happily.26. A. service B. food C. staff D. business27.

Since the 1990s, computer technology has been more widely applied to tourism in China where it has brought increasing economic benefit. Some large travel agencies are promoting the use of computers and the Internet in their operations, management and overseas promotion. China International Travel Service(CITS), the first to use computer management in China's tourism industry, 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 and 1998 the European industry, as indicated by exhibitor participation, was growing by over 4 per cent a year. In Germany, the modern Messe (会展中心) of Germany evolved at the beginning of the century 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 of8their 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.9。

Reading Comprehension (2×10=20)Directions: Read the following passages and make your proper choice.(A)Traveling with children who are old enough to read, write, or play games need not be a problem. By taking along a supply of papers, pencils, or one of the excellent game books that are sold just for the purpose, the time can be made to fly. Verbal games, too, such as “Twenty Questions”, help to pass the hours.When traveling on public transportation, having games and diversions on hand is just as important, since it is unreasonable to expect children, especially small ones, to be able to sit still for long periods of time. It is up to you to keep watch over them, however, and not let them roam bythemselves or make excessive amounts of noise. Fellow passengers have paid for their travel tickets and even those who love children can learn to hate them quickly when trapped in a train or airplane with those who are ill-behaved.On ships there are usually activities of children. Although it is a break for parents to be able to send their children off to participate and have some time alone, you should still make sure that your children behave well. Children should not be permitted to race through corridors or to be unsupervised, no matter how much you enjoy relaxing in your desk chair without them nearby. It would be unfortunate if your children were the cause of other’s feelings that they were also traveling “with children”—— yours ——because of their interruption through constant noise, quarreling, or bad behavior.More and more frequently, children are sent to travel unaccompanied by an adult, whether to visit a relative, or to travel to grandparents. Many parents expect that a flight attendant or train steward will take care of their children when they send them off alone. This is an unreasonable expectation. Travel attendants have specific jobs to do, andthese do not include child care. For that reason each airline has established a minimum age for unaccompanied children. As long as that regulation is respected, there is no reason that children who are emotionally stable and unafraid should not travel by themselves. In my experience with our grandchildren, the airlines have done an excellent job of caring for them and the children have enjoyed it thoroughly. Of course, if it is not possible for a parent to accompany a very young child, then another adult should be hired as a traveling companion.21. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?A. Traveling with a primary school child is not a problem.B. Adults find it easy to pass the time by doing the game such as “Twenty Questions”.C. Children find time fly by doing verbal games such as “Twenty Questions”.D. Game books help make the time pass quickly for young children.22. It is implied but not stated that ______.A. small children cannot be expected to be emotionally stablefor longB. parents find it harassing to take care of their own childrenC. small children always make much noiseD. few fellow passengers like traveling with children23. The italicized word “break”(Para. 3) most probably means “ ______ ”.A. accidentB. mistakeC. restD. pause24. Parents cannot depend on travel attendants to take care of their children because ______.A. they are not responsible for child careB. there is a minimum age for children who travel aloneC. their children are emotionally unstable and timidD. parents should always go with their children25. It can be inferred from the passage that ______.A. the author doesn’t like traveling with his childrenB. the a uthor doesn’t like traveling with other passengers’ childrenC. the author opposes the airlines’ minimum age for unaccompanied childrenD. the author prefers children’s unaccompanied trave l ifthey are old enough(B)With its almost six billion people, the world offers a fascinating variety of human shapes and colors. As humans spread throughout the world, their adaptations to diverse climate and other living conditions resulted in this fascinating variety of complexions, colors and shapes. Changes in the genetic structure added distinct characteristics to the peoples of the globe. In this sense the concept of race, a group with inherited physical characteristics that distinguish it from another group, is a reality. Humans do indeed come in a variety of colors and shapes.In two senses, however, race is a myth, a fabrication of the human mind. The first fabrication is the idea that any one race is superior to another. All races have their geniuses —and their idiots. Like language, no race is superior to another. Adolf Hitler’s ideas were extreme. He believed that a superior race, called the Aryans, was responsible for the cultural achievements of Europe. They possessed the genetic stuff that made them inherently superior. Even many scientists of the time —not only Germany but throughout Europe and theUnited States —espoused the idea of racial superiority. Not surprisingly, they considered themselves members of the supposedly superior race!In addition to the myth of racial superiority, there is a second myth — that of the existence of a “pure” race. From the perspective of contemporary biology, humans show such a mixture of physical characteristics, that the “pure” races do not exist. Instead of falling into distinct types clearly separate from one another, human characteristics flow endlessly together. These minute gradations made arbitrary any attempt to draw definite lines.Large groupings of people, however, can be classified by blood type and gene frequencies. Yet even this arrangement does not uncover “race”. Rather, such classifications are so arbitrary that biologists and anthropologists can draw up listings showing any number of “race”. Ashley Montagu, a physical anthropologist, pointed out that some scientists have classified humans into only two “races”while others have found as many as two thousand. Montagu himself classified humans into forty “racial” groups.This is not meant to imply that the idea of race is a myth.That idea is definitely very much alive. It is firmly embedded in our culture, a social reality that we confront daily. Sociologist W. I. Thomas observed that “if people define situations as real, they are real in their consequences”. The fact that no race is superior or that biologically we cannot even decide how people should be classified into races is not what counts. What makes a difference for social life, rather, is that people believe these ideas, for people act on beliefs, not facts. As a result, we always have people like Hitler. Most people, fortunately, do not believe in such extremes, yet most people also appear to be ethnocentric enough to believe, at least just a little, that their own race is superior to others. 26. It can be inferred from the first paragraph that the diversification of human race resulted from ______.A. genetic inheritance and environmental influencesB. the differentiation of the inherited physical characteristicsC. humans' adaptations to diverse climate and other living conditionsD. genetic changes and distinct characteristics27. The italicized word “espoused” (Para. 2) probably means “______”.A. challengedB. questionedC. opposedD. supported28. Why is there no “pure” race according to the passage?A. Because people of different races often get married.B. Because people have different blood types.C. Because racial characteristics cover each other in part.D. Because there are so many races in the world.29. The author believes that any attempt at classifying races ______.A. is at best arbitraryB. is bound to be biasedC. tends to pick out one race as superiorD. takes culture into account30. The author concludes the passage by pointing out that ______.A. it is hardly possible to classify humans into racial groupsB. we should be on our guard against any idea of racial superiorityC. race is indeed a mystery to be explored and uncoveredD. it is not important how people should be classifiedIII.

Here again the 34 thoughtful Disney people have 35 care of everything. Child care has never been more convenient and family 36 .On a recent trip 37 Disney World this Dad decided it was time to 38 our Disney Mom to a night out. Initially we felt a little 39 to leave our kids with 40 during our family vacation. In order to 41 our conscious, we decided to take our two 8 year 42 for a “visit”to the Cub Den before we abandoned them there 43 that night. The only problem we had during our visit was 44 them to leave. We were greeted by a Cast Member whose smile and friendly manner put everyone 45 ease. As we looked around the kids could not decide what they wanted to 46 first, the video games, toys, games or Disney Videos. We were also 47 that dinner would be provided and pizza was on the menu.48 the time approached to drop the kids off the only trouble we had was keeping up as we crossed the 49 on our way to the Cub Den.

Strange caves, 1,000 islands and islets, and colorful sites are scattered like stars in the sky.Travelling eastward along the route from the Huangshan Mountainwill bring tourists to Hangzhou. From there, a five-hour coach and boat trip takes travelers to Pailing Town, Chunan County in the center of the 1,000-Island Lake.On the Huolo (Furnace) Peak of Pailing Ridge, the highest of the ridges, is an ideal spot for an aerial view of the mountain and the lake where tourists can row boats to all the islands.From the Pailing Ridge, tourists can go to Jiande by coach along the river bank and through the Jian River tunnel.

Was it possible to reach the Pole that way? That would be a great scientific deed,and a great event in history.For nearly three years,Peary tried to set up an expedition.He spoke to scientists,wrote letters to important people,and outlined his plans.Gradually people began to notice his efforts.Top United States scientists got behind him.They agreed to provide money for an expedition to Greenland.Peary immediately set to work rounding up a team of men.On June 6,1891,they sailed for Greenland on the KITE.A month later the ship was moving deep into the arctic off Greenland’s w est coast.Peary was on deck standing next to the wheel.Suddenly a huge cake of ice crashed into the rudder.The wheel swung loose and hit Peary.It crashed two bones above his right ankle.The leg was set,but Peary was told that he wouldn't be able to walk for months.“We are not going back,” he insisted.“People are depending on me.I can’t let them down. It will take more than a broken leg to stop me now.”。
