Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants居民of a 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 country and how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country keep the customs and beauty that attract tourists. Tourism should also advance the well-being (health 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, air terminals航空集散站, first-class roads and other support facilities 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 support facilities设施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.
小题1: Which of the following has most probably been discussed in the paragraph that goes before the passage?
A.It is extremely important to develop tourism.
B.Building roads and hotels is essential.
C.Support facilities are highly necessary.
D.Planning is of great importance to tourism.

举一反三
It"s an annual argument. Do we or do we not go on holiday? My wife says no because we have no savings to save us. I say you only live once and we work hard and what"s the point if you can"t go on holiday. The joy of a recession (不景气) means no argument next year - we just won"t go.
Since money is known to be one of the things most likely to bring a relationship to its knees, we should be grateful. For many families the recession means more than not booking a holiday A YouGov survey of 2, 000 people found 22% said they were arguing more with their partners because of concerns about money. A recent research shows arguments about money were especially damaging to couples. 
Kim Stephenson, an occupational psychologist, believes money may be different things to men and women. “People can say the same things about money but have different ideas of what it"s for.” he explains. “They"ll say it"s to save, to spend, for security, for freedom, to show someone you love them.” He says men are more likely to see money as a way of buying status and of showing their parents that they"ve achieved something.
  “The biggest problem is that couples assume each other know what"s going on with their finances, but they don"t. There seems to be more of a taboo (禁忌) about talking about money than about death. But you both need to know what you"re doing, who"s paying what into the joint account and how much you keep separately. In a healthy relationship, you don"t have to agree about money, but you have to talk about it.”
小题1:What does the author say about going on holiday in Paragraph 1?
A.It will cost them too much money.
B.Few people can afford it without working hard.
C.It makes all the hard work worthwhile.
D.It is the chief cause of family quarrels.
小题2:According to the text, what does Kim Stephenson believe?
A.Money is often a symbol of a person"s status.
B.Money means a great deal to both men and women.
C.Men and women spend money on different things.
D.Men and women view money in different ways.
小题3:The author suggests that couples should ______ .
A.put their money together instead of keeping it separately
B.discuss money matters to maintain a healthy relationship
C.make efforts to reach agreement on their family budgets
D.avoid arguing about money matters to remain romantic

Last year more than 13 Korean (韩国) TV series were introduced in China. Turn on the TV, and Korean beauties are appearing during peak viewing times(黄金时段). Some of the dramas are being repeated, but audiences continue to watch them. Why are the South Korean TV series loved by so many Chinese people? Cheng Yiting, a student from East China Normal University, gives us her reasons. She thinks that the good-looking actors with cool clothes and the beautiful sight in the dramas are the selling points for South Korean TV dramas.

While you may be doing everything right, ignoring just one or two steps in the process may keep you from getting a job, especially in this fierce market. Here is a checklist that covers some of the major links in the job-search chain.
THE RESUME --- Make sure it is up-to-date and tailored to the types of jobs you are seeking for. Have someone else look at your resume. If you cannot afford a career coach, give your resume to friends or family members to scrutinize. Have copies of your resume printed so that you are ready to hand them out at interviews.
COVERING LETTERS --- Maybe you’ve set up a few basic styles in advance, but that’s not enough. Each covering letter should be designed to suit the job for which you are applying.
THE WARDROBE(衣橱) --- Check your wardrobe to ensure that you have the appropriate professional dress, including shoes, ready for interview.
NETWORKING --- Don’t isolate yourself from others for days. Network through e-mail messages, phone calls, appointments and meetings keep you in touch with the outside world and prevent you from becoming depressed.
APPLICATION --- A glance at huge online job sites isn’t usually the best way to find a job. You are more likely to succeed through the people you know via networking.
THE FOLLOW—UP --- It is quite common to apply for job and never hear back from the company. Take measures, such as following up with a phone call a week or so after you apply. If you know someone at the company, check whether that person will put in a good word for you.
INTERVIEWS --- If you’ve got plenty of interviews but no return calls or job offers, take a look at your interviewing skills. This is one area where investing in a career coach may pay off. But if you can’t afford one, try to find a job group or service that conducts free mock(模拟) interviews.
SUPPORT SYSTEMS --- Finally, recognize that looking for job is rather difficult. Even at the best of times, a job hunt is often about rejection, and that can be hard to endure. Staying in touch with family, friends, professional networks and fellow job seekers can help you to maintain a positive attitude and a sense of perspective.
小题1:The author’s purpose of writing this text is to _________.
A.suggest graduates should find suitable jobs

A.checkB.useC.rewriteD.criticize
小题3:Which of the following methods is wrong according to the text?
A.You should have your resume read by your friends after finishing it.
B.You should create different covering letters for the different jobs you apply for.
C.Searching online is the most effective way to look for a job.
D.You should wear professional clothes and shoes for the interview.
小题4:What should you do if you don’t receive any calls after lots of interviews?
A.Ask a fellow job seeker to help you
B.Carefully review your interviewing skills.
C.Rewrite your resume as soon as possible
D.Go to the managers’ offices to find out why.

C.your social network may help you a lot in your job hunt

“Now I just don’t believe that.” Surely all of us, at some point, have watched a movie and thought: It’s simply badly researched, or, the makers must think we’re fools.
If movies were completely scientifically accurate, they’d probably be as interesting as a Physics 101 lecture. In real life, there are no explosions in space, gas usually doesn’t explode from a lit cigarette, and Bruce Willis / Jackie Chan / Will Smith would most likely be in a coma(昏迷) after getting kicked in the head.
Recently, the British newspaper The Daily Telegraph ran a humorous piece on unconvincing tech moments from some top movies. Let’s see what they are all about.
Telegraph writer Tom Chivers’ first example is from the end-of-the-world movie Independence Day, in which a character comes up with a virus capable of destroying Windows, the computer system the alien(外星人的) spacecraft uses. “It’s a good thing they didn’t have Norton antivirus,” jokes Chivers.
It’s just one case of a movie that takes a lot of license with its science. Another one Chivers mentions is from Star Wars, where glowing beams of light traveling through space look very impressive. The problem is that in space there are no air particles(颗粒) for the light to reflect off. In reality, they’d not be seen, which wouldn’t look so cool on the big screen.
Chivers’ second piece of Star Wars nonsense is the sound the fighters make in the movies: “ the bellow(咆哮) of an elephant mixed with a car driving on a wet road”. But sound needs a medium to travel through, like air. In space, there wouldn’t actually be any sound at all.
Few people would deny that the mind-bending Matrix films make for great viewing, but for Chivers, the science in the movies is a little silly.
And finally: as Chivers points out, DAN is not replaceable. But this bit of elementary genetics passed the makers of the 2002 Bond film Die another Day by. In the film the villain(坏人) has “gene therapy” to change his appearance and his DNA, which is completely impossible.
小题1:What does the text mainly deal with?
A.Plots of some famous movies.B.Characters in space movies.
C.Popularity of space movies.D.Mistakes made in some movies.
小题2:From the first two paragraphs we can know that some movie makers ____.
A.went against general knowledge of science
B.didn’t pay attention to the viewers’ real demand
C.overestimated viewers’ appreciation of movies.
D.didn’t try their best to improve the quality of the movies.
小题3:What does the underlined word “they” in Paragraph 3 refer to?
A.The newspapers. B.Unconvincing tech moments
C.Some top movies.D.Heroes in the movies.
小题4:We can learn from Paragraph 7 that ____.
A.most people like Matrix films
B.the truth of Matrix films remains in doubt
C.few people think Matrix films silly
D.Chivers thinks science is unacceptable

“A very disruptive(调皮捣蛋的) six-year-old child kicked my legs and clawed at my hand,” said one teacher. “ I broke up a fight and was kicked between my legs,” said another. Many people have heard stories like this. But the situation is more worrying still and it involves parents.
Every child, regardless of the circumstances into which they are born, has the right to achieve their potential, regardless of their parents’ wealth and class. And we recognize that, as a nation, it is a long way to achieve this goal. But with rights come responsibilities and what worries people is that we are in danger of ignoring the latter.
Far too many children are behaving badly at school, even to the point of being violent to staff. This is terrible enough, but it is hard to be surprised since many children are just mirroring the behaviour of their parents.
My members tell me that parents also come into school often and threaten staff and some staff have been attacked by a pupil’s parents. One father encouraged his child to start a fight on the playground before school started. A primary teacher reported that a parent shouted at him. We need to have a serious and sensible debate about the roles and responsibilities of parents and the support that they can reasonably expect of schools and teachers.
Children will not learn how to behave as social beings if they are stuck in front of the TV for hours every day. They need their parents to show an interest in them and to spend time with them, helping them to play with their peers(同龄人) and to learn the rules of social behavior.
Children are now arriving at school socially undeveloped, increasingly unable to dress themselves, unable to use the toilet properly, unable to hold a knife and fork and unused to eating at a table, Mary Bousted, general secretary of the Association of Teachers and Lecturers, writes in today’s Observer. Instead of taking responsibility themselves, too many parents expect teachers to control their children’s behaviour and wellbeing, she adds. Bousted says one mother blamed staff when she discovered that her 16-year-old son was smoking.
We are in danger of becoming a nation of families living separate lives under one roof. The bedroom, once a place to sleep, has become the living space for the young. Spending hours in front of computer screens, on social networking sites or being immersed(沉迷于) in computer games, children and young people spend little time with their parents. Parents are unable to monitor just what their children are watching.
Schools cannot right the wrongs of society and teachers cannot become substitute parents. Both parties need to work together. Parents must be helped and given confidence to take back control. They are responsible for setting boundaries for their children"s behaviour and sticking to those boundaries. They are responsible for setting a good example to their children and for devoting that most precious of resources — time — so that children come to school ready and willing to learn.
小题1:In the opinion of the writer, what problem do people ignore?
A.The violence in the school
B.The study pressure of students.
C.The responsibilities of the students
D.The right to achieve students’ potential.
小题2:The underlined part in Paragraph 7 means _____.
A.parents care little about children’s life at home
B.parents and children live in their separate rooms
C.children don’t live with their parents in the same house
D.children live a different life from that of parents at home
小题3:The author’s attitude to the behaviour of parents may be ______.
A.dissatisfiedB.indifferent
C.understandingD.tolerant
小题4:From the last paragraph, we can infer that ______.
A.teachers have no responsibility for playing the role of parents
B.schools can’t correct the wrongs that society does to teachers
C.students are responsible for making themselves known in society
D.parents should spend time with children to make them ready to learn
