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 wealth 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, first- class roads, and other support facilities（配套设施）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 lose money.
Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support facilities as well, including roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers 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.
56．Which of the following do you think has been discussed in the part before this selection？
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.
57．The underlined word“ inhabitants” （in Paragraph 1 ） probably means________.
A. tourists B. passengers
C. population D. citizens
58．Too much tourism can cause all these problems EXCEPT ________ .
A. a bad effect on other industries
B. a change of tourists' customs
C. over - crowdedness of places of interest
D. pressure on traffic
59．It can be inferred from the text that ________ .
A. the author doesn't like tourism developing so fast
B. local people will benefit from tourist attraction
C. other parts of a country's economy won't benefit from tourism much
D. we can't build too many support facilities
60．The author thinks it is good for local people to know that tourism will ________ .
A. waste a lot of money
B. weaken their economy
C. help establish their customs
D. help improve their life

Language learning begins with listening. Children are greatly different in the amount of listening they do before they start speaking, and later starters are often long listeners. Most children will “obey” spoken instructions some time before they can speak, though the word“obey”is hardly exact as a description of the eager and delighted co- operation（合作） usually shown by the child. Before they can speak, many children will also ask questions by gestures and by making questioning noises.
Any attempt to study the development from the noises babies make to their first spoken words leads to considerable difficulties. It's agreed that they enjoy making noises, and that during the first few months one or two noises sort themselves out as particular expression like delight, pain, friendliness and so on. But since these can't be said to show the baby's intention to communicate, they can hardly be regarded as early forms of language. It is agreed too, that from about three months they play with sounds for enjoyment, and that by six months they are able to add new words to their store. This self - imitation（自我模仿）leads out to deliberate（有意的）imitation of sounds made or words spoken to them by other people. The problem then arises to the point at which one can say that these imitations can be considered as speech.
It is a problem we need to get our teeth into. The meaning of a word depends on what a particular person means by it in a particular situation and it is clear that what a child means by a word will. change as he gains more experience of the world. Thus the use, at seven months, of“ mama” as a greeting for his mother cannot be dismissed as a meaningless sound simply because he also uses it at another time for his father, his dog, or anything else he likes. Playful and meaningless imitation of what other people say continues after the child has begun to speak for himself. I doubt, however , whether anything is gained when parents take advantage of his ability in an attempt to teach new words.
61．Children who start speaking late ________
A. may have problems with their listening
B. probably do not hear enough language spoken around them
C. usually pay close attention to what they hear
D. often take a long time in learning to listen properly

A. an expression of his moods and feelings
B. an early form of language
C. an imitation of the speech of adults
D. a sign that he means to tell you something
63．The problem of deciding at what point a baby's imitation can be considered as speech ________ .
A. is important because words have different meanings for different people
B. is not especially important because the change takes place gradually
C. is one that should be ignored（忽略）because children's use of words is often meaningless
D. is one that can never be properly understood because the meaning of words changes with age
64．The speaker implies that ________ .
A. even after they have learnt to speak, children still enjoy imitation
B. children who are good at imitating learn new words more quickly
C. children no longer imitate people after they begin to speak
D. patents can never hope to teach their children new sounds
