What's your dream vacation? Watching wildlife in Kenya? Boating down the Amazon? Sunbathing in Malaysia? New chances are opening up all the time to explore the world. So we visit travel agents, compare packages and prices , and pay our money.

      We know what our vacation costs us. But do we know what it might cost someone else? It's true that many poorer countries now depend on tourism for foreign income. Unfortunately, though, tourism often harms the local people more than it helps them.

      It might cost their homes and lands. In Myanmar, 5,200 people were forced to leave their homes among the pagodas(佛塔)in Bagan so that tourists could visit the pagodas.

      Tourism might also cost the local people their livelihood and dignity. Local workers often find only menial(卑微的)jobs in the tourist industry. And most of the profits do not help the local economy. Instead, profits return to the tour operators in wealthier countries, When the Maasai people in Tanzania were driven from their lands, some moved to city slums. Others now make a little money selling souvenirs or posing for photos.

      Problems like these were observed more than 20 years ago. But now some non-government organizations, tour operators and local governments are working together to begin correcting them. Tourists, too, are putting on the pressure.     

      The result is responsible tourism, or “ethical tourism.” Ethical tourism has people at its heart. New international agreements and codes of conduct can help protect the people's lands, homes, economies and cultures. The beginnings are small, though, and the problems are complex.

      But take heart. The good news is that everyone, including us, can play a part to help the local people in the places we visit. Tour operators and companies can help by making sure that local people work in good conditions and earn reasonable wages.

      They can make it a point to use only locally owned hotel, restaurants and guide services. They can share profits fairly to help the local economy. And they can involve the local people in planning and managing tourism.

      What can tourists do? First, we can ask tour companies to provide information about the conditions of local citizens. We can then make our choices and tell them why. And while we're abroad, we can:

Buy local foods and products, not imported ones.

Pay a fair price for goods and services and not bargain for the cheapest price.

Avoid flaunting wealth.

Ask before taking photographs of people.

They are not just part of the landscape!

Let's enjoy our vacation and make sure others do, too.

What is probably the best title for the article?

A. Tourism Causes Bad Effects.           B. Tourism Calls for Good Behavior.

C. Vacations Bring a Lot of Fun.           D. Vacations Cost More Than You Think

Which of the following is not mentioned?

A. Local people were well paid to leave their lands.

B. Tourists may stay in hotels opened by local people.

C. Local people are mainly provided with low-paying work.

D. Tourists could bargain with local people for a reasonable price.

The underlined phrase "take heart" means"       ".

A. pay attention    B. take care         C. cheer up        D. calm down

According to the passage, the writer thinks           .

A. tourism is not a promising industry

B. dream vacations should be spent abroad

C. the problems caused by tourism are easy to settle

D. tourists should respect local customs and culture

An old farmer lived on a farm with his young grandson. Each morning Grandpa was up early to read his Bhagavat Geeta. His grandson wanted to be just like him and tried to imitate him in every way he could.

One day the grandson asked, "Grandpa! I try to read the Bhagavat Geeta just like you but I don't understand it, What good does reading the Bhagavat Geeta do?"

The Grandfather quietly turned from putting coal in the stove and replied, "Take this coal basket down to the river and bring me back a basket of water."

The boy did as he was told, but all the water leaked out (漏出) before he got back to the house.

This time the boy ran faster, but again the same took place. He told his grandfather that it was impossible to carry water with a basket.

The old man said, " You're just not trying hard enough,"  So the boy again dipped the basket into the river and ran hard, but when he reached his grandfather the basket was again empty. he said, "See Grandpa, it's useless!"

"So you think it is useless?" The old man said, "Look at the basket."

科目：高中英語 來源：2014屆浙江省高一獎(jiǎng)學(xué)金考試英語試題（解析版） 題型：閱讀理解

I lost my sight when I was four years old by falling off a box car in a freight yard in Atlantic City and landing on my head. Now I am thirty two. I can slightly remember the brightness of sunshine and what color red is. It would be wonderful to see again, but a calamity(災(zāi)難) can do strange things to people. It occurred to me the other day that I might not have come to love life as I do if I hadn't been blind. I believe in life now. I am not so sure that I would have believed in it so deeply, otherwise. I don't mean that I would prefer to go without my eyes. I simply mean that the loss of them made me appreciate the more what I had left.

Life, I believe, asks a continuous series of adjustments to reality. The more readily a person is able to make these adjustments, the more meaningful his own private world becomes. The adjustment is never easy. I was totally confused and afraid. But I was lucky. My parents and my teachers saw something in me--a potential to live, you might call it--which I didn't see, and they made me want to fight it out with blindness.

The hardest lesson I had to learn was to believe in myself. That was basic. If I hadn't been able to do that, I would have collapsed (崩潰) and become a chair rocker on the front porch for the rest of my life. When I say belief in myself I am not talking about simply the kind of self confidence that helps me down an unfamiliar staircase alone. That is part of it. But I mean something bigger than that: an assurance（確信） that I am, despite imperfections, a real, positive person; that somewhere in the sweeping, intricate（錯(cuò)綜復(fù)雜的） pattern of people there is a special place where I can make myself fit.

It took me years to discover and strengthen this assurance. It had to start with the simplest things. Once a man gave me an indoor baseball. I thought he was making fun of me and I was hurt. "I can't use this." I said. "Take it with you," he urged me, "and roll it around." The words stuck in my head. "Roll it around! "By rolling the ball I could hear where it went. This gave me an idea how to achieve a goal I had thought impossible: playing baseball. At Philadelphia's Overbrook School for the Blind I invented a successful variation of baseball. We called it ground ball.

All my life I have set ahead of me a series of goals and then tried to reach them, one at a time. I had to learn my limitations. It was no good to try for something I knew at the start was wildly out of reach because that only invited the bitterness of failure. I would fail sometimes anyway but on the average I made progress.

A．How to adjust himself to reality.

B

Whether rich or poor, we all have problems: that unfaithful mate, that annoying colleague, that persistent(持久的) disease, and the investment that is turning into a huge loss.

How can we remain calm, positive and even elegant in the face of all these difficulties of

life?

The following suggestions may help.

It comes with the pay. I have a friend who used to complain about her dead-end job and

unreasonable boss. Sounds familiar? One day I told her, "Look at it this way. You are getting

paid for the annoyance as well as the work. It comes with the pay. "

This has become my favorite saying for work-related frustrations. "Take every day as a bo-

nus. " When we learn to treasure every moment of what we have, we begin to see life in a whole

new attitude.

It's all in the mind. Sure, the psychologists tell us it is important that we work at resol-

ving problems. But they also say if you try to resolve a problem that would not go away, it would

only compound(使更復(fù)雜) the frustration.

If you tell yourself there isn' t a problem, there won' t be one. It is all in the mind.

Stop thinking about your own problem-help others instead. A lady who is struggling a

life-threatening disease showed she coped with her illness by making herself useful, by offering

help to others in a similar situation.

She has spoken to at least five other women with breast cancer. She says that the sharing

has helped her to find fresh meaning in her own life.

Never give up on your dream. Why do we give in or give up when we meet difficulities?

ls it because we have no confidenee in our cause and no commitment (承擔(dān)義務(wù))for what we

pursue?

One strong-hearted lady was the late head of the tragic Kennedy family, Rose Kennedy.

She said this on nationwide television one week after losing yet another son to assassin's( 暗殺者) bullet--Boddy Kennedy:"And we go on our way with no regrets not looking backwards to

the past, but we shall carry on with courage. "

Not the end of the world. Do you know something else? I' ve learned that care as you

might, love as,you might, some people don't care back.

And it is not the end of the world. After all, it's not the event that makes a person, is it?

It's what we do about what happens to us.

It was said that Albert Einstein' s last request on his death bed was to be given his equa-

tions(方程式) and his unfinished statement. Einstein first picked up his equations and lament-

ed(悲嘆) to his son, "if only I had more mathematics!" What a great persistent spirit!

45. All of the followings are wrong EXCEPT_____.

A. some people have many problems while some have none

B. Albert Einstein pursued his dream till the last minute of his life

C. Rose Kennedy must be a timid (缺乏自信的) woman

D. we shouldn' t love those who don' t care about us

46. The passage is intended to inform the readers_____ .

A. how to face problems                       B. how to resolve problems

C. how to hold on to your dreams              D. how to help others

47. By saying "Take every day as a bonus", the author is trying to tell us __.

A. we should get a bonus every day     B. we should treasure every day in our life

C. we should make advances every day  D. we should enjoy ourselves every day

48. The last paragraph of the passage is out of place; it should be put under the subtitle of_____.

A. It comes with the pay                      B. It' s all in the mind

C. Never give up on your dream               D. Not the end of the world
