15.For centuries,the Inca city of Machu Picchu was lost in the jungle.Then,in 1911,the American explorer,Hiram Bingham,discovered the ruins(废墟) of it.It is one of the most extraordinary places in the world.Today it is also one of the most popular tourist destinations in the world.Many people choose to follow the Inca Trail (印加古道),a centuries-old path of 43 kilometres that takes three or four days on foot.Others take the train and then a bus for the last part of the journey.
Now a hotel company is going to build a cable car to the top of Machu Picchu.‘The cable car is good news for Machu Picchu,'says a company spokesman.‘There are going to be a lot more tourists and that means ore jobs for the local people.Loking after the ruins is expensive.With the extra money,we can spend more on looking after them.'
However,the plan is not popular in Peru (秘鲁).Ana Redondo,a tour guide,explains the problem.‘There are already more than 300,000 tourists that go to Machu Picchu every year.The Inca Trail is crowded.Old tea bags and water bottles can be found here and there.How dirty the Inca Trail is now!The new cable car is going to bring 400 tourists every hour!The company is also going to build a large hotel and tourist centre with souvenir shops,fast food restaurants and so on.It is the end of Machu Picchu.'
Ana is an activist who belongs to an organization named Save Machu Picchu.She says that the organization is going to stop the company's plans.‘Tomorrow we are meeting government officers.Next week two scientists from UNESCO will come here.We will discuss the plans.Next month we are organizing an international meeting.We are not going to stop until the cable car idea is dead.
