You don’t mean any harm. You’re just trying to have a good time. But do you know how your overseas vacation 21 people in other countries? What’s your dream vacation? New chances are opening up all the time to 22 the world. So we visit travel agents, compare prices and pay our money. We know 23 our vacation costs us. 24 unfortunately, tourism often harms the local people 25 it helps them. For example, in Zanzibar, a British company got 57 sq km of land from the government for tourist sites(旅游胜地). They include 14 luxury hotels, three golf courses , swimming pools and an airport. The local people fear 26 their farmland and fishing rights. And most of the profits(利润) do not help the local people. 27 , profits go for the tour operators in wealthier countries. When the Massey people in Tanzania were driven from their lands, some moved to city slum (贫民区), 28 now make a little money by selling small gifts. Removed from their hunting lands, the Indians have no choice 29 their culture. Problems like these were observed more than 20 years ago. Now people are working together to correct them. Tourists, too, are 30 the pressure. The beginnings are small, 31 , but the results are obvious. The good news is that everyone, 32 can play a part to help the local people in the place we visit. Tour operators and companies can help by making sure that local people work in good 33 and earn reasonable wages. They can make it a point to use only locally 34 hotels, restaurants and guide services. They can share profits fairly to help the local economy. And they can involve the local people 35 planning and managing tourism.
