1、定时训练(15)专题特训(阅读理解主旨大意) 体裁:说明文话题:生态旅游时间:6分钟Ecotourism is a combination of ecology(the study of systems of living things) and tourism.The International Ecotourism Society defines ecotourism as “responsible travel to natural areas that conserves the environment and improves the wellbeing of the local p

2、eople.”Actually,ecotourism can mean travel to faroff places of great natural beauty,but not always in a responsible way.Its big business,and the attraction of money can cause people to think about profits first.While ecotourism offers benefits for people and ecosystems,it leaves ecosystems open to n

3、egative effects,too.Costa Rica,once a Spanish colony,and independent since 1821,has an ecotourism industry worth over one billion dollars yearly,and thousands of jobs have been created.Nearly 21 percent of the land is now protected national parks,largely thanks to ecotourism.Nonetheless,due to the n

7、 seek out places with the rarest animals and plants,pressuring the most delicate living things.Controlling random development isnt easy.Corruption can lead officials to stand ecological damage.For example,a large resort facility,normally not allowed near a reserve,may be allowed if the company pays

8、enough money to certain people in the government.Limited resources are another issue.Areas of forests and beaches that would require an army to protect are often watched by several employees.It is easy to be critical of the ecotourism industry but it is important to be positive as well.Ecotourism ca

14、贿赂腐败事情存在。故选B。答案B4Why does the author think it is easy to be critical of the ecotourism industry?ABecause wildlife is very easy to protect.BBecause it is easy to remove the negative effects of ecotourism.CBecause ecotourism is not as profitable as it should be.DBecause it takes advantage of nature fo

21、afety like everyone else!”I cried.Mum refused to give up.“I know Makciks still inside,”she said as she pounded the door.“Go downstairs,Shaji.Go now!”However,frozen with fear,I stood rooted to the spot.By then,both of us were coughing and our eyes were stinging.Time seemed to stand still,though we we

27、 a loved one is in danger,the thought of fear never crosses the mind.”During my school days,whenever I wrote an essay about courageous deeds,I always focused on soldiers risking their lives to save others.It never occurred to me to write about my mum who had,in her determined way,saved our elderly n
