Answer 1

分析 本文主要解释了旅游的发展过程．首先从旅游开始的时候是人们获取食物的方法，到人们旅游为了乐趣．同时也解释了人们喜欢旅游的原因．

解答 71．B．上下文逻辑联系题．根据空格后面的People traveled in search of food and shelter or in order to flee from their enemies．可知人们旅游是为了寻找食物、住处和逃离敌人，这与B中的most travel was not for pleasure"大部分旅游不是为了快乐"一致． 
72．E．上下文逻辑联系题．根据空格前面的some pleasure travel occurred知有人是通过旅游来获得乐趣的，与E中的富裕的罗马人参加奥运会获得乐趣一致． 
73．F．上下文逻辑联系题．根据空格后面的International tourist arrivals alone reached as many as 546 million in 1994 and are forecast to rise to 937 million in 2010可知国际旅游人数在增加，与F中的The growth of tourism意义一致．
74．A．上下文逻辑联系题．根据空格后面的Probably the most common reason for traveling可知这是解释旅游受喜欢的原因，说明了前面应该是一个问题，根据前后的因果关系，可知选A． 
75．G．上下文逻辑联系题．倒数第二段解释了一个原因，这里最后一段应是解释另外一个原因，与G中的Another important reason for traveling意义一致．
