Without proper planning,tourism can cause problems.For example,too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants of the country.If tourists create too much traffic,the inhabitants become annoyed 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 (旅行目的地) country and how tourism affects them.Tourism should help a country keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists.Tourism should also advance 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.Businesses can also lose money.It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels.Airports,first-class roads,and other support facilities (配套设施) 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 owners of the hotel will lose money.
Building a hotel is just a beginning.There must be many other support facilities as well,including roads to get to the hotel,electricity,sewers (下水道) 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.

Because six of every ten accidental deaths happen to Chinese children who are playing, Shanghai Johnson & Johnson Pharmaceutical (SJJP), a US-based pharmaceutical(制药的) giant, is working on a Safe Kids Program to prevent injuries and deaths. Since the Safe Kids Worldwide was set up in 1987 by Johnson & Johnson in the US, it has contributed to a nearly 40 percent decline in the child death rate from accidental injuries there. Learning from the successful experience, SJJP began the Safe Kids Program in China in 1999. A recent survey conducted by SJJP and Safe Kids Worldwide China indicates that more than half of the responding parents didn't know how to help their children keep safe and that half of the parents didn't know about their children's motor skill development at different ages. The survey covered 3,359 Beijing, Shanghai and Guangzhou's parents with children between infancy(婴幼年) and 14. Additionally, more than 40 percent of the parents didn't know how to help their children to prepare well for sports activities. For example, they don't know how to have their children warm up or realize the importance of a playground-check before sports activities. To help correct the problems, SJJP and Safe Kids Worldwide China have been translating and editing safety education materials, sending them to parents free of charge, and delivering free lectures in kindergartens, schools and communities for the last ten years. At present, a special team has been set up and traveling around 12 key cities of China to popularize child sports safety knowledge and offer free training for young parents. Though SJJP refuses to say how much it has spent on the program, it says the number in terms of money, staff and technology, is large. Title: Safe Kids Pr ogram
