    There is no doubt that tourism provides a positive impact on tourist spots. It creates quality jobs for the local community, revives the local culture rather than destroying it, and encourages the protection and restoration of the environment. Yet not every traveler will receive warm welcome. On the contrary, some upset the locals and make fellow travelers retreat. Here is a listed some of the deadliest sins of travel. Pray you don’t commit them.
    【B16】______________________________________________
    OK, traveling for long periods of time is hardly a sin, provided you’re spending some cash, but if you stay away longer than you meant to, it can turn you into a less-than-agreeable traveler. You start to think that everyone you meet is out to rip you off, you get a little too confident when someone helps themselves to a spot ahead of you in line and the language barrier starts to be an annoying headache rather than an entertaining challenge.
    【B17】
    And at some point we’re all guilty of saying yes to a couple of cultural no-nos such as not moderating their clothing as they head from the sheltered environment of the hotel pool to the wider world of Egypt’s tombs. But sometimes those who’ve been wandering the world for great lengths of time feel that they know it all and can do no wrong. Remember sexy clothing, chugging beer and grabbing your boyfriend’s ass could well offend a few locals. And if you’ve upset the locals, it’ll be the next group of travelers who pay.
    【B18】______________________________________________
    Enveloping yourself in local customs is part of the reason we travel. We want to sample original flavors, see unusual architecture, learn foreign tongues and experience the new traditions that come with a different religion. But some travelers go too far: they put on the local traditional clothes to go about their daily affairs, would never dream of eating a hamburger and frown at the very notion of socializing with one of their countrymen. Respecting a culture is one thing, but adopting it as your own can sometimes cause offence. Plus you look ridiculous.
    【B19】______________________________________________
    No matter how many years you’ve been traveling the globe, things will always go wrong. Trains will break down, hotels will fill up, attractions will close on the only day you could possibly visit and food poisoning will put you out of action just as you had some life-affirming adventure planned. The key is to accept the setbacks as a natural part of your adventure. Expecting everything to run smoothly is to set foot on the road to disappointment and a way to ruin your trip.
    【B20】______________________________________________
    Travel snobs are people who consider themselves superior for a wealth of bizarre reasons. They travel for longer, rough it more, stray further from the beaten track or simply carry less luggage and therefore feel the need to look down on anyone who doesn’t meet their standards. Who cares if someone opts for package tours or carries vast amounts of designer luggage to their five-star hotels? If you spend your time sorting out the good travelers from the bad, you run the risk of ruining your trip.
【B16】
选项
答案C
解析 本段关键信息为首句中的stay away longer than you meant to以及turn you into a less-than-agreeable traveler，即如果在旅游景区逗留太长时间，会把自己变成不招人喜欢的游客。由此可知，C项Staying on the road too long(在旅途中停留太长时间)是本段的小标题。
