Mrs. Smith is the owner of a house.She keeps one room for herself and rents the other rooms.Since her house is near a college,many students want to rent her rooms.

Now Mrs. Smith has to be careful about the use of the phone,water,and everything else,because she worries that the renters(租房人)will keep the bill(账)high.Last month's phone bill was very high.She wants to know if someone in the house makes long distance(长途)calls and doesn't tell her.So she decided to find out who it was.

She has waited behind the door for several nights.Just now she was glad to hear someone coming near the telephone desk.She couldn't hear what the person was saying,but she was sure it was a man's voice.“Why does this person speak in such a low voice?” thought Mrs. Smith.She decided that he was trying to hide something.She went to the room quickly so that she could catch the man right then.

But when she suddenly opened the door,she saw only the back of a man with his hand on the telephone desk.He was saying something in a low voice to a girl beside him.So Mrs. Smith still doesn't know who made the phone bill very high.

In the past,people used to travel to foreign countries because they thought they would be different in many ways--the buildings,the food,the national dresses and so on.At present,however,one large city is similar to another.They all have their Hilton or Sheraton Holds everywhere.They all have their McDonald's.their KFCs and their Pizza Huts.Office buildings look the same everywhere,and most city centers are full of office buildings.And of course,people are driving the same brands(品牌)of Japanese or European cars.

Then what is the foreign travel for? What do tourists hope to experience in a foreign country that they cannot experience at home? The answer could be that people are very interested in the past.It is a nation' history and culture that are the main attractions.Most people travel overseas to find out what foreign countries history and cultures used to he like,not What they arc like today.Tourists try to 1earn the history and culture of foreign countries by visiting different kinds of museums.

Every country also has its own beautiful places for tourists to visit.Their own special scenery(风景)would certainly attract tourists from other countries.

Finally,there is perhaps a country's attraction:its people.A country is not just its old buildings,its works of art(艺术品)or beautiful places,it's also the people who live in it.This is why a country such as Thailand attracts millions of people.The tourists come mainly because of the friendliness(友好)of the people there.It is why the Pacific islands are also so popular.The friendly,smiling people make visitors feel welcome.
