Question

【題目】 Has such a scene ever come to your mind? You’re sitting in the hot sunshine beside the swimming pool of your international hotel, drinking your expensive whisky. In front of you is the beach, only for hotel guests. Around the hotel are fancy international restaurants.

Is this your idea of paradise (天堂) or would you prefer something different?

Nowadays, many of us try to live in a way that will harm the environment as little as possible. We recycle our newspapers and bottles, we take public transport to get to work. And we want to take these attitudes on holiday with us. This is why ecotourism(生態(tài)旅游) is becoming more popular all over the world.

Everyone has a different idea about ecotourism, but most people agree that ecotourism must: protect the wildlife and culture of the area; do no harm to the nature; offer an experience that tourists want to pay for.

So, for example, in a true ecotourism project, tourists stay in local(當(dāng)?shù)氐?/span>) houses with local people, not in specially built hotels. They travel on foot, by boat, or bicycle so that there is no pollution. And they have a special experience that they will remember for the rest of their lives.

This type of tourism can only involve(涉及)a small number of people, so it can be expensive. And if you want to have an “eco” holiday wherever you go, remember these basic rules:

Be prepared. Learn about the place that you’re going to visit. Find out about its culture and history. Think of your holiday as a chance to learn something.

Have respect for the local culture. Wear clothes that will not annoy people. Always ask permission before you take a photograph. Remember that you are a visitor.

Don’t waste resources. If the area doesn’t have much water, don’t take two showers every day.

Stay in local hotels and eat in local restaurants.

But before you get too excited, think about how you are going to get to your dream “eco” paradise. Flying often causes air pollution. So don’t forget that you don’t have to fly to foreign places for your “eco” holiday. There are probably places of natural beauty in your own country that you’ve never visited.

文章大意：本文是一篇議論文，主要論述了生態(tài)旅游的好處，并為如何生態(tài)旅游提供了建議。

【1】推理判斷題。根據(jù)Has such a scene ever come to your mind? You’re sitting in the hot sunshine beside the swimming pool of your international hotel, drinking your expensive whisky. In front of you is the beach, only for hotel guests. Around the hotel are fancy international restaurants. 可知，第一段介紹了想象中的場(chǎng)景。由此可以推知，本文是通過(guò)想象引入的，故答案選B。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)Wear clothes that will not annoy people. 穿別人不討厭的衣服�？芍�，如果你想度過(guò)一個(gè)“生態(tài)”假期，你得穿別人不討厭的衣服。結(jié)合選項(xiàng)，可知C選項(xiàng)“喜歡什么穿什么。”與原文不符，故答案選C。

【3】推理判斷題。根據(jù)Everyone has a different idea about ecotourism, but most people agree that ecotourism must: protect the wildlife and culture of the area; do no harm to the nature; offer an experience that tourists want to pay for. 每個(gè)人對(duì)生態(tài)旅游都有不同的看法，但大多數(shù)人同意生態(tài)旅游必須做到：保護(hù)該地區(qū)的野生動(dòng)物和文化；不危害自然；提供一種游客愿意付錢(qián)的體驗(yàn)。由此可以推知，生態(tài)旅游可能會(huì)受到當(dāng)?shù)厝说臍g迎，故答案選A。

【4】標(biāo)題歸納題。根據(jù)通讀全文可知，文章主要論述了生態(tài)旅游的好處，并為生態(tài)旅游題干了建議。結(jié)合選項(xiàng)，可知D選項(xiàng)“生態(tài)旅游——一種不同的度假方式”概括了文章的主旨，是本文的最佳標(biāo)題，故答案選D。
