If your idea of a good time is to sleep in a hut, carry your own rubbish, and eat insects and wild animals, then ecotourism may be just for you. But is it also for people who want to fly over a rainforest sky before checking into a comfortable and expensive hotel in the middle of a national park? Whatever ecotourism is, it is hot--perhaps too hot for its own good.

The World Tourism Organization claims that the industry looked after 592 million travelers last year who spent $423 billion, and of all the types of tourism, ecotourism seems to be the fastest growing. By the broadest measure -- a trip with some sort of nature or wilderness element -- ecotourism already accounts for perhaps a third of these travelers. On a stricter definition favored by the Ecotourism Society, it is “responsible travel that preserves natural environments and keeps up the well-being of local people,” which accounts for no more than 5% of tourism.

Ideally, ecotourism helps both people and nature. Before the disastrous civil war, Rwanda’s Mountain Gorilla Project was one such model. Visits to the gorillas were limited, local guides ensured good behavior or on the part of the humans, and the high admission charge - $170 a day -- paid for salaries and presentation of the gorillas’ living areas. As this made the gorillas worth more alive than dead, poaching (偷猎) decreased. As another example, preservation Cooperation, Africa’s largest ecotour operator, uses only local labor, buys products 5om local farmers, and supports building projects: such as clinics and schools. This contribution to social advance is also good business sense. Projects from which local people benefit directly are less likely to be affected by poaching and theft.

Ecotourism’s biggest problem is labeling. Going on an eco-tour is no guarantee of good ecology. So far, only Australia has an official system to grade tour operators and tourist attractions on the basis of their “greenness”. Another issue is how eco-tourists damage the environment. Dolphin-feeding, for instance, is innocent and enjoyable, but after too many free meals, the dolphins forget how to catch their own dinners.

Keeping prices high is one way to limit enthusiasm. But measuring the effect of ecotourism on human environments is trickier. It is common, for villagers to see ecotourism as a source of new income. Hence, the very tourists who venture in search of traditional cultures end up breaking them up. As ecotourism becomes more popular, it will finally threaten the very things that are good for business.

1.According to the passage, ecotourism may _________.

A. harm its own purpose by becoming too popular

B. save the environment by becoming more popular

C. harm its own purpose by becoming less popular

D. save the environment by becoming less popular

2.Within the tourism industry as a whole, ecotourism _____________.

A. has no single, clear definition that would satisfy everybody

B. has expanded less rapidly than other types of tourism

C. claims that no comfortable hotels should be used by tourists

D. most often has a negative effect on local culture

3.Rwanda’s Mountain Gorilla Project is a good example because ___________.

A. tourists were free to visit the gorillas whenever they wanted to

B. local people’s attitudes toward animals were not affected

C. the gorillas were protected from both tourists and local people

D. the gorillas’ living area was modernized because of the high admission

4. _________ most directly benefits the local community.

A. Rwanda’s Mountain Gorilla Project            B. Preservation Corporation

C. Australia’s grading system                            D. Dolphin-feeding

Do you think it is ever a good idea for a teenager to have a credit card?

My kids watch closely as I swipe the card through the register．They’ve seen me do it hundreds, thousands of times．Cool．They are itching to swipe it through the machine themselves． When we walk out of the store with our groceries or pet food, or whatever, it’s almost as though money has not changed hands, painless, easy．

So it shouldn’t be shocking to discover that teenagers are becoming card carrying consumers in their own right．The question is, should they?

While some argue it’s best to teach kids how to use a credit card while still living under the family roof, not everyone agrees． Dave Ramsey, financial expert says getting a credit card for your teenager is actually, “an excellent way to teach him or her to be financially irresponsible．”

Now parents are required to co-sign on credit cards for children under 21．“If their name is on the credit card, then the parent may say, ‘Hey, my name is on this．Don’t get me into trouble,” says Mary Beth Pinto, a marketing professor．“When parents were the co-obligors（共同借贷人），the children caused less debt．If the parents are the co-obligors, the tendency is that the parents were explaining how to use the cards．” Still, Pinto believes parents should start the process much earlier．“Yes, there has to be teaching going on and it has to start when they’re younger． You’re not going to get rid of credit cards．They are here to stay． You have to have them． You can’t fight progress,” Pinto said．

Ramsey, however, disagrees．“Throwing teens into a pool of （credit）sharks is a sure way to guarantee a life-time of heartache,” he said．“You can make online purchases and rent a car with a credit card．Of course, you must have money in your bank account before you can make a purchase with a credit card．But paying for things with money is what you are supposed to do．”

1.The author mentioned her experience in Para 2 mainly to______．

A． prove the convenience of using credit cards

B． tell what impression credit cards leave on kids

C． give advice on using credit cards wisely

D． explain the pleasure credit cards bring to customers

2.The underlined word in Para 2 can be replaced by __________．

A． eager           B． afraid          C． embarrassed     D． thankful

3.What’s Ramsey’s attitude towards teens’ using credit cards?

A． He feels it is worth a try

B． He is very supportive

C． He is strongly against it

D． He considers it as a pleasant experience

4.Pinto will most likely agree that __________．

A． parents should let teens own their credit cards earlier

B． you shouldn’t be in control of credit cards

C． it is never good for anyone to get a credit card

D． learning to use credit cards is practical
