Without proper planning, tourism can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd public
places that are also enjoyed by the inhabitants 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 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. Business can also lose money. It
costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, 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 the room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel lose money. |

tell you about yourself will be well worth it. Here are some tips to help recall your dreams:
1. Before going to bed, keep a clear mind. Tell yourself that "I will remember my dreams when I wake up".
This is actually a proven and effective way to recall your dreams.
2. Have a regular bedtime and wake-up time. Make this your routine. Going to bed and waking up at a
regular time every day could aid in dream recollection.
3. Avoid drinking and taking medicine before going to bed. These things may prevent you from
remembering your dreams.
4. Keep a pencil and a notebook next to your bed so that they will be within reach as soon as you wake up.
Having a small lamp by your bedside is also a good idea, so you wake up in the middle of the night and can
record your dreams immediately.
5. Do not get out of bed immediately. Upon waking from a dream, lie still in your bed, keeping your eyes
closed and moving as little as possible. Let your mind wander among the images of what you have just dreamed.
6. Write down as many details in your dreams as you can, no matter how seemingly unimportant they may
be. Do not judge the content or worry if they make sense.
7. Sometimes it may help to draw pictures. A picture is worth a thousand words, as the saying goes. Even
if you are not an artist, a simple drawing can help to recall details of your dreams. | | 1. This passage tells you ______ | A. some useful tips to recall your dreams

discovering what you"re not good at and what you don"t like. Both help you to see your aim in life.
Although most students would be unhappy if they failed a very difficult physics examination, they have in
fact learned a lot about themselves. They know that they should not become engineers or physical scientists.
So failing can help a student to live a happier life if he learns something from it. They may then decide on their
aims and choose the work they like and are fit for.
It is impossible to decide whether you like something until you have tried it. If you decide to play the piano,
you need to take more than one lesson before knowing whether you are really interested in it or able to do well.
It is not enough if you want to be a great pianist. You also have to like the hard practice and long training. If
you enjoy being a great pianist but hate the work, forget it.
It"s a good plan to try as many ideas as possible when you are young. Then you will find out what your true
interests are. | | 1. If you say you really know yourself, _____. | A. you know what you don"t like
B. you know what you are good at
C. you have no interest in your work
D. you"ve got the whole picture of yourself | | 2. Failing can turn into something good _____. | A. if you have aim in life
B. if your decision is fight
C. if you lead a happier life
D. if you learn something from it | | 3. What can we learn from the second paragraph? | A. Failure is a better mirror
B. Success is more helpful
C. No one is fit for the job of a physical scientist
D. Physics can help students live a better life | | 阅读理解。 | People smile at times. However, the meaning of a smile in different cultures may be different. Depending
on different cultures, smiling can express joy and amusement, but it can also show embarrassment.
People in the United States smile a lot. Every one smiles at each other in order to show they are open and
friendly. However, in China, smiling is not only an expression of happiness, but also a way to avoid being
embarrassed. Chinese people like smiling when they are embarrassed in order to avoid embarrassment. Smiling
is a kind of good will but not sneer (嘲笑). For example: When a child falls off from a bike, the adults in China may smile, which is a kind of gentle encouragement and not a kind of impolite laugh.
When a person from the United States might blush(脸红)with embarrassment or become offensive (冒犯的), a Chinese might blush with smile. To avoid serious misunderstanding, people who engage in intercultural
communication should be able to understand the meaning of smiling properly. | | 1. We can use smile to express all of the following feelings except ______. | A. joy and happiness
B. amusement
C. embarrassment
D. fear | | 2. People often smile at each other in the United States because ______. | A. they are very happy
