问题     Tourism is (represents) a [kind of] popular and pleasant activity that combines sightseeing, recreation and health care. With the passage of time, tourism has been developing. Since the middle of the 20th century, modern tourism has been growing at a fast pace around the world. The number of tourists has been rising, the scale of the tourism industry has constantly been expanding, and the importance of tourism in the economy has grown obviously. Tourism acts (serves) gradually as an important bridge for cultural exchange and friendship, and it exerts a steadily broadening influence on daily life (human life) and social progress among people of various countries.
    The tourist industry has been one of the fastest growing industries in modern times. Indeed, the growth rate of tourism has generally exceeded the growth rate for the worldwide economy. The development of tourism as a mass industry depends on modern means of rapid and inexpensive transportation. For example, the greatest growth in international tourism has paralleled the growth of air transportation.
    Tourism benefits not only airlines, hotels, restaurants, and taxi drivers, among others, but also many commercial establishment and even the manufactures of tourist commodities. The tourist industry is not a single entity, but one that consists of many different kinds of enterprises that offer different services to the trailer, including transportation, accommodations, catering, guiding service, banking, manufacturing and education.
    For most people, almost any place can become a tourist destination as long as it is different from the place where the trailer usually lives. New York may not be a tourist attraction to a New Yorker, but for a Londoner it may have many charms. Many big cities also offer a unique atmosphere and history. The Great Wall and the Palace Museum of Beijing and the flower vendors and cable cars of San Francisco are part of the unusual atmosphere of those cities.
    Smaller and yet well-known towns and rural areas throughout the world may also have attractions of this kind that tourists visit. An excellent example is the small village town of Stratford, Shakespeare’s birthplace. Of course, natural scenery has always been an attraction for tourists. Millions of people have visited Niagara Falls, for example. Its reputation as a place for a honeymoon resort is world-famous.
选项
答案 旅游是一种集观光、娱乐、健身为一体的愉快而美好的活动。旅游业随着时代的进步不断发展。二十世纪中叶以来，现代旅游在世界范围迅速兴起，旅游人数不断增加，旅游产业规模持续扩大，旅游经济地位显著提升，旅游活动日益成为各国人民交流文化、增进友谊、扩大交往的重要渠道，对人类生活和社会进步产生越来越广泛的影响。 旅游业是现代发展最快的产业之一。的确，旅游业的增长率通常超过全球经济的增长率。旅游业发展成为一个规模的产业，依靠的是快速廉价的现代交通工具。例如，国际旅游业发展最快的时期正是航空运输业的发展时期。 旅游业不仅有利于航空公司、旅馆、餐饮、出租车等行业的发展，还有利于很多商业机构，甚至也能促进制造业的发展。旅游业不是一个单一的行业，而是由向游客提供各种服务的许多不同行业所组成的综合性行业，包括交通、住宿、餐饮、导游服务、银行、制造业和教育。 对大多数人来说，除了自己的常住之地，其他任何一个地方都可以成为旅游胜地。纽约对纽约人来说也许不是旅游胜地，而对伦敦人来说却不乏魅力。许多大城市的名胜有一种独特的历史氛围，如北京的长城和故宫，旧金山的花店和电缆车，游客的确可以在那里感受到一种与众不同的氛围。16．世界各地的小城镇和乡村地区也有这类游客前去参观的景点，如莎士比亚出生地斯特拉福德的一个小镇便是其中一个典范。当然，自然风光始终吸引着游客。例如，尼亚加拉大瀑布每年吸引着数以万计的游客，其“蜜月巢”之美誉举世皆知。
