19．Ecotourism is a combination of ecology （the study of systems of living things） and tourism．It is （51）A"responsible travel to natural areas that preserves the environment and improves the welfare of the local people"by the International Ecotourism Society．Actually，ecotourism can mean travel to far-off places of great natural beauty，but not always in a（n） （52）Dway．It's a big business，and the attraction of money can cause people to think about （53）C first．While ecotourism offers benefits to people and ecosystems，it leaves ecosystems open to negative effects，too．
Costa Rica，once a Spanish colony，and independent since 1821，has an ecotourism industry worth over one billion dollars yearly，and thousands of jobs have been （54）B．Nearly 21percent of the land is now protected national parks，（55）A thanks to ecotourism．Nevertheless，due to the number of people visiting the country's natural places，some damage to the ecosystem has occurred．
While （56）A can have a negative impact on ecosystems，the same areas might have been （57）B by industries such as farming，logging，or mining if there were no ecotourism industry．Shelters （庇护所） have been created （58）C，keeping the ecosystem protected．And，by visiting beautiful rainforests and seeing rare animals，visitors get a sense of their （59）D，and of gratitude for them．Tour guides can also be educators who train people to love and care for the environment．Visitors can take these （60）B with them to their home countries．
Unfortunately，while their effect may not be（61）B in the off-season，the constant parade of visitors in the high season can be damaging．At one national park in Costa Rica，wild monkeys now feed on garbage left by the tourists．（62）C，ecotourists tend to seek out places with the rarest animals and plants，（63）D the most delicate living things．
It is easy to be critical of the ecotourism industry，but it is important to be （64）A as well．Ecotourism can never be"pure"．We can't expect zero negative effects on the ecosystem．It is also （65）C to suppose that humans won't go anywhere accessible to them．If protection efforts are maintained and increased，those remaining places of undisturbed nature may be stressed，but they won't be destroyed．

12．When we talk about our childhood，there is always something that we remember clearly．As for me，what impressed me most was my father．I still remember he used his（41）Bto let my mother（42）Aher parents who lived far away．There were just my younger brother and myself in the（43）A．One evening，our father came home and there was no（44）C，not even a piece of bread．My father had no money and he was as （45）Das we were．My brother and I went to bed without having anything．
（46）BI knew from the expression on my father's face that he could not （47）Cus be hungry for long．He left the house，and about two hours later he （48）D and woke us up．He had two small potato pies in his hands．I didn't know where he got the money for the food but somehow he （49）Bto find a way．It was clear that he wanted to get his children （50）C．
My father did not eat and had （51）Dall day but he sat there and felt （52）Bat seeing us eat．This has always stuck in my （53）A．At that moment，I felt （54）C knowing that he tried his best not to let us （55）A，and he wanted us to know he was always there with us．
In （56）Dtimes，I think，it is important not to （57）Dweakness but strength．
（58）Athe mother is the cement（黏合剂）that （59）Ba family together，then the father is the steel that strengthens（加固）that cement．
It is his values and （60）Cthat have carried me forward and helped me deal with my own problems in life．

10．Once upon a time there were two brothers who lived near each other．One day，they had a （36）D because of some small things．And neither was willing to （37）A each other．
One morning，there was a knock at door of the elder brother．He（38）Bit and found a man standing beside the door．"I'm a carpenter（木匠）．I'm （39）A a few days'work．Perhaps you would have a few small jobs I could help with．"
"Yes，"said the elder brother．"I do have a job for you． （40）D at that farm across the small river．It is my younger brother's．We had a quarrel，so I won't like to see his （41）C anymore．I want you to build me a 8-foot（42）D．"The man said，"I think I understand the situation．Don't worry．I'll be able to do a job that makes you（43）B．"So the elder brother was very glad and left for the town nearby．

"Do you know the name of the bridge？"The carpenter asked．
"No，"the elder brother was（49）B．
"OK，I can tell you．Its name is understanding and （50）A，"the carpenter smiled．
Suddenly they began to understand（51）A．Surely，between two brothers there should be a bridge rather than a （52）B．Standing on the bridge，they （53）C each other's hands with （54）D in their eyes．
"Could you stay another few days？I've a lot of other work for you，"said the elder brother．"I'd love to（55）Con，"the carpenter said．"But I have many more bridges to build．"
