Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants(居民) of a country. 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(目的地) country and how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists. Tourism should also advance health and happiness of 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. This means that other parts of the country’s economy can suffer.
  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. For example, a major international-class tourist hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build. 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(阴沟) to handle waste, and water. All of these support facilities cost money. If they are not used because there are not enough tourists, jobs and money are lost.
【小题1】Which of the following has most probably been discussed in the paragraph that goes before the passage?

A.It is not important to develop tourism.
B.Building roads and hotels is important.
C.Support facilities are highly necessary.
D.Planning is of great importance to tourism.
【小题2】Too much tourism can cause all these problems except _____.
A.a bad effect on other industries
B.a change of the customs of the country
C.air and water pollution
D.pressure on traffic
【小题3】Not enough tourism can lead to _____.
A.the fact that some people may be out of work
B.an increase in tourist attractions
C.the higher cost of support facilities
D.a rise in price and a fall in pay
【小题4】The word “handle” in the last paragraph most probably means _____.
A.carry awayB.pick upC.get inD.take down

To his  49 , he found the little wolf still wanted to go back with  50  wolves. He bit through the iron chain that limited him. The wolf was  51  and he never gave in, fighting  52  his death. The little wolf died as a glorious fighter.

I was shocked by this kind of  53 :wolves are one of the most respected creatures on the earth. I want everyone to look at wolves in a  54  way. They are our teachers. They show us how to survive and  55  in this not simple but dangerous world. Please honor the wolves, please honor all these heroes of nature!
