题目内容
【题目】Without proper planning,tourism can cause problems.For example,too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants of a country.If tourists create too much traffic,the inhabitants become annoyed and unhappy.They began 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.Tourism should help a country keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists.Tourism should also advance the wealth 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.Business can also lose money.It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels,airports,air terminals,firstclass roads,and other support facilities needed by tourist attractions.For example,a major international class tourism hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build.If this room is not used most of the time,the owner 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.All of these support facilities cost money.If they are not used because there are not enough tourists,jobs and money are lost.

【解析】这是一篇议论文。主要论述了发展旅游与保护当地居民权益之间会存在一些问题。
【1】推理判断题。文章一开始就讲到了如果没有适当的计划,旅游业可能面临一些问题。与前文从正反两方面来论述。因此可以断定选文前的一段应该是从正面论述的。所以选D。
【2】细节理解题。文章提到了旅游业应促进旅游地当地人习俗的保持,暗含现在可能是改变或破坏了他们的习俗,但是并未提到会改变游客的习俗问题,因此正确答案为B项。
【3】推理判断题。可利用排除法,也可直接根据“They forget how much tourism can help the country's economy,”一句推断得出结论。所以选B。
【4】推理判断题。由全文可知,A、B、C三项明显不符合旅游业的好处,也违背了常理,因此正确答案为D项。
