Without proper planning, tourism can cause problem. 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 annoyed (烦恼) and unhappy. They begin to dislike tourists and 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 well-being (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 tourist 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 (终点站),first-class roads, and other support facilities (设施) needed by the tourist attractions. For example, a major international-class 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 service 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.

[ ]
A. use up a large amount of water
B. weaken their economy
C. help to keep their tradition
D. help to improve their life
(5)The word “handle” in the last paragraph most probably means _________.

解析:
(1) D 由短文第一句推断,本短文之前很有可能谈论“计划对旅游来说是非常重要的”. (2) B 其他三项文中都有阐述.A项第二段开始就做了阐述.C、D两项第一段中做了阐述. (3) A 由第二段中第四句得出答案. (4) D 由第一段第一句和末句推知. (5) B 由上下文得知,handle这里应是“处理”的意思,只有B项deal with符合此意思. |

Career education includes the formal and informal learning that occurs in the family,in the community, and in schools.In schools,career education consists of instructive activities included in many courses. These activities are designed to improve the attitudes,knowledge,and skills that are important for work roles.Career education helps students to develop selfunderstanding and then use it to plan their education and working life. A complete career education program in school begins in kindergarten and continues at least through high school.In kindergartens and elementary schools,youngsters learn about different types of work.In junior middle schools,children begin to explore the occupations and leisure activities that interest them most.In high schools,students get more specific information about occupations and life styles.They may learn how to make career decisions in classrooms,small groups or individual sessions.They also should obtain the skills they need for further study or for a job after graduation.Many colleges and universities also offer career education through their counseling programs.Counselors provide information on such matters as how to locate and apply for jobs and how to be successful in interviews. Teachers and counselors use a variety of methods to provide career education,including films about occupations or industries.Children may invite parents or other adults to come to school and describe their jobs.A student may accompany a worker on his or her job for some time.
