Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. 1 . If tourists create too much traffic, the
inhabitants become angry and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. They
forget how much tourism can help the country"s economy. It is important to think about the people of a
destination country and how tourism affects them. 2 .
Tourism should also improve the health and happiness of the local inhabitants.
Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to
work in the tourism industry. 3 .
On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Businesses can also lose money.
It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, first-class roads and other support facilities
(设施) needed by tourist attractions. 4 . If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the
hotel lose money.
Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get
to the hotel, electricity, sewers to handle waste, and water. 5 . If they are not used because there are
not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost. |
A. This means other parts of the country"s economy can suffer
B. Tourism can bring a lot of benefits
C. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants
(the people living there) of a country
D. For example, a major international-class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars
per room to build
E. All of these support facilities cost money
F. Therefore, tourism plays an important part in local economy

阅读下面短文, 然后简要回答下面5个问题。要求答语: 结构正确、书写工整、字迹清楚。 |
When I asked my daughter which item she would keep: the phone, the car, the cooker, the computer,
the TV, or her boyfriend, she said"the phone". Personally I could do without the phone, which makes me
unusual, because the telephone is changing our life more than any other piece of technology.
Point 1 The telephone creates the need to communicate, in the same way that more roads create more
traffic. My daughter comes home from school at 4:00 and then spends an hour on the phone talking to the
very people she has been at school with all day. If the phone didn"t exist, would she have anything to talk
about?
Point 2 The mobile phone means that we are never alone."The mobile saved my life," says Lucy. She
had an accident in her Volvo. Trapped inside, she managed to make the call that brought the ambulance.
Point 3 The mobile removes our secret. It allows Marketing Manager of a large company to ring his sales
staff all around the world at any time of day to ask where they are, where they are going, and how their last
meeting went.
Point 4 The telephone separates us. A person said,"We worked in separate offices but I could see him
through the window. It was easy to get his number. We were so near-but we didn"t meet for the first two
weeks!"
Point 5 The telephone allows us to reach out beyond our own lives. Today we can talk to several complete
strangers at the same time on chat lines. We can talk across the world. We can even talk to astronauts while
they"re space-walking. And with the phone line hooked up to the computer, we can access the Internet, the
biggest library on Earth. |
1. Why is the writer unusual?
___________________________________________________________________________________
2. Why is the mobile phone important to us according to Para.3 (Point 2)?
___________________________________________________________________________________
3. Does the person in Para.5 (Point 4) feel happy or sad about the telephone? Why?
____________________________________________________________________________________
4. What does the underlined phrase"hook up to" mean?
____________________________________________________________________________________
5. Please draw up a title for the passage.
_____________________________________________________________________________________ |

Every day we go to school and listen to the teacher, and the teacher will ask us some questions. Sometimes,
the classmates will ask your opinions of the work of the class. When you are telling others in the class what
you have found out about these topics, remember that they must be able to hear what you are saying. You are
not taking part in a family conversation or having a chat with friends-you are in a slightly (稍微的) unnatural
situation where a large group of people will remain silent, waiting to hear what you have to say. You must speak
so that they can hear you-loudly enough and clearly enough but without trying to shout or appearing to force
yourself.
Remember, too, that it is the same if you are called to an interview whether it is with a professor of your
school or a govemment official who might meet you. The person you are seeing will try to put you at your ease
but the situation is somewhat different from that of an ordinary conversation. You must take special care that
you can be heard. |

It is natural for young people, at times, to blame their parents for most of the misunderstandings between
them. They have always complained that their parents are out of touch with modern ways; that they do not
trust their children to deal with crises; that they talk too much about certain problems, and that they have no
sense of humor, at least in parent-child relationships. I think it is true that parents often look down upon their
teenage children and also forget how they themselves felt, when young.
For example, young people like doing things without careful consideration: it is one of their ways of
showing that they can accept a challenge. Older people worry more easily: most of them plan things ahead, at
least in the back of their minds, and do not like their plans to be upset by something unexpected.
So my advice to you is this: when you want to borrow the family car or get your mother to mend
something for you, you will have better success if you can possibly ask in advance.
Young people often annoy their parents with their choices in clothes and hairstyles, in entertainers and
music. This is not the main reason. They feel cut off from the adult world. So they create a culture and society
of their own. Then, if it turns out that their music and entertainers, or vocabulary, clothes and hairstyles annoy
their parents, this gives them additional enjoyment. They feel they are better, at least in a small way, and they
are leaders in style and taste.
Sometimes you don"t obey because you do not want your parents to accept what you do. If they did
accept, it looks as if you are tricking your own age group. But in that case, you are supposing that you are the
underdog: you can"t win but at least you can keep your honor. This is a passive way of looking at things. It is
natural enough, after long years of childhood, when you were completely under your parents" control. But it
ignores the fact that you are now beginning to be responsible for yourself.
If you plan to control your life, co-operation can be part of the plan. You can impress others, especially
parents, with your sense of responsibility, so that they will give you the right to do what you want to do. |
| 1. According to the passage, all the following complaints are true EXCEPT that ______. |
A. parents have no sense of humor at all
B. parents are always behind the times
C. parents talk too much about certain problems
D. parents don"t believe their children can deal with crises |
| 2. What does the author suggest to young people to win support from their parents? |
A. Ignoring them.
B. Controlling them.
C. Entertaining them.
D. Cooperating with them. |
| 3. We can learn from the passage that ______. |
A. young people are not allowed to join adult society because they have their own culture
B. it is impossible for young people to get along well with older people
C. older people tend to forget what they felt when they were young
D. older people often lead the way in fashion |
| 4. The underlined word "underdog" in the 5th paragraph refers to a person who _____. |
A. keeps dogs as pets
B. seems less likely to succeed
C. likes to cheat his own age group
D. looks down upon others around him |

Some vacation is just around the corner. One of the best things you can possibly do is to start you own
club. It"s great fun especially if you are the sort of person who feels there"s never anything to do during the
school holidays.
The first thing you need to come up with is an idea for your club. 1 Pets, clothes, pop music or dancing
groups, sports, making things? The list is endless.
Next you need some friends to be in your club with you. 2 All you need is three or four other people
who are interested in the same thing as you.
3 You should all sit down somewhere together with lots of pieces of paper and write down every name
you can think up. That"ll keep you busy for ages.
At your first meeting you should make up a rule book. And the first rule should be no grown-ups or
little/big brothers or sisters! The best clubs are always secret!
Now you have just about everything you need, except membership cards. These are very important and
again you can spend a lot of time making them. 4 Why not leave some space for a photo of yourself? That
will make the membership card really look like it.
So there you are, get clubbing! Once you get started you"ll think of loads of more interesting things to do! |
A. That"s easy.
B. Enjoy your own club!
C. Invite a designer to join you.
D. What are you interest in?
E. Then you need to pick a name for your club.
F. Use a bright thick pen to make a special design. |

General Airport Tips
Plan to get to the airport at least an hour early, or two during holidays and other busy times; this will
reduce the stress of the flight. If all goes well, you will have time to relax, shop for last-minute items, or
have a meal before the flight.
Flight Delays
Find out why your flight is delayed. Call the free call numbers. Find out if other airlines are experiencing
similar delays. If you believe the delay is due to something other than weather or air traffic problems, then
mention your suspicion (怀疑) and ask the airline agent to book you on the next available flight, either on the
same air-line or a competing one. This is called "Rule 240", and all airlines are required to do it. Use the lingo
(行话); ask,"Can you 240 me?" when speaking with an agent. They will know what you mean.
Flight Cancellations (取消)
If your flight is canceled, then make a reservation on the next flight to your destination. Usually, air-line
personnel will try to book everyone on their next flight out. Often they will put you on a competitor"s next
flight only if you request it. If on-time arrival is important to you, when you check flights through our
reservation system you can rate your choices based on their on-time arrival records. Be sure to also check the
weather conditions, as they often affect flight schedules. |
| 1. A person goes to the airport ahead of time mainly to _______. |
