Tourism develops culture. It broadens the thinking of the traveler and leads to culture【C1】______between the hosts and guests from far-off places. This can benefit the locals, since tourists bring culture【C2】______them.
Tourism may help to preserve indigenous customs, 【C3】______traditional shows, parades, celebrations and festivals are put on for tourists. The musicals, plays and serious drama of London theatres and other kinds of nightlife are【C4】______supported by tourists. Such events might disappear without the stimulus of tourism to【C5】______them.
On the other hand, tourism often contributes to the disappearance of local traditions and folklore. Churches, temples and similar places of worship are【C6】______as tourist attractions. This can be【C7】______the expense of their original function: how many believers want to worship in the middle of a flow of atheist invaders? Who would want to pray【C8】______curious onlookers shuffle to and fro with guide books, rather than prayer books, in their hands?
Tourism may bring other indirect cultural consequences in its【C9】______.Tensions which already exist between ancient and more modern ways may be deepened by tourists’ ignorance of【C10】______customs and beliefs. Tourists, if not actually richer, often seem more well-off than natives. The former may therefore feel superior【C11】______the latter embarrassed about their lifestyles. The result may be an inferior feeling which【C12】______helps the sense of identity which is so important to regional culture. The poverty of a locality can look even worse when【C13】______with the comfortable hotel environment inhabited by tourists. Prosperous retired or elderly tourists from Britain, where the average life expectancy is 75 years, may well【C14】______resentment in Sierra Leone, where the local population can expect to live to no more than 41 years. The relative prosperity of tourists may【C15】______crime. In Gambia, unemployed young people offer to act as "professional friends" — guides, companions or sexual partners in return for money. When the tourism season is over they can no longer get wages that way so they【C16】______to petty stealing from the local populace. All this affects the local social life and culture【C17】______.
Cultural erosion can also take place at more【C18】______levels. Greek villagers traditionally【C19】______themselves on their hospitality. They would【C20】______travelers for free, feeding them and listening to their stories. To take money would have been a disgrace. That has changed now. Tourists exist to be exploited. Perhaps this is hardly surprising if the earnings from one room rented to a tourist can exceed a teacher’s monthly salary.
