Costa Rica is famous for its national,parks,but has only recently turned attention to supporting the people who live in them.Johnny Langenheim joins a community’led tour of its jungly Osa peninsula(半岛).
And what wildness.Costa Rica’s Osa peninsula,a former island that now makes up the southernmost reach of the country’s Pacific coast,was called“the moat biologically intense place on Earth”by National Geographic.It covers 2.5%of the planet’s biodiversity into just 0.001%of its surface area.And,this being Costa Rica,80%of it is protected,mostly by the Corcovado
national park.
“We’re good at conserving nature here,”says Daniel Villafranca of the recently launched Caminos de Osa community tourism initiative.Our group of 10 explorers is sitting down to a feast of gallo pinto(rice and black beans),tangy fried pork,salsa and fried plantain prepared by Don Felix’s wife,Doria Yentsy.“A quarter of our country is national park.But we need new approaches that support people,too.That’s what Caminos de Osa is trying to do.”
Don Felix now welcomes tourists.Don Felix is a case in point.He used to prospect for gold
and hunt wild pigs in remote parts of Osa,both illegal activities that damage this area’s weak
ecosystem,Now he and his wife have j oined a network of local business people hosting groups like ours on immersive tours.Daniel helps pull all the various joint ventures together and market the four—to-six—day trips as well as tailored trips that combine trekking,kayaking,snorkeling(徒步旅行,皮艇运动,用通气管潜泳),horse riding,and diving with visits to local communities.
These traveling places were originally cleared by hunters and gold prospectors.Today the more challenging Camino del Oro(Gold Trail)takes visitors on treks deep into Osa’s rain forest.But we’retaking the less strenuous coastal route and our next stop is Drake Bay,named after English’s most famous privateer,who is said to have left treasure here in the 1 6th century.
Cosa Rica developed its national parks system in the 1970s,taking its hints from the great North American parks.It has been regarded as an outstanding conservation success,but community ecotourism initiatives are still brand new.“The reality is the people who live in the parks need to earn a livelihood,but regulations make that very difficult,”says Villafranca.“This approach turns hunters and gold prospectors,who are directing the tourism narrative.”
We can infer from the passage that______.
选项
A、the local government has turned illegal activities into legal ones
B、people now rely on gold prospecting and hunting for a living
C、British explorers reached Costa Rica as early as 1 500
D、coastal routes are the most effortless traveling
答案
A
解析
推断题。C选项在文中没有提及,D选项在倒数第二段最后一句有所提及,但是并未说是最省力的。当地人为了保护环境已经不再进行狩猎和掘金,故B选项错误;结合文章第四段前半部分以及第五段第一句可知,狩猎和掘金是违法的,人们转而开始靠旅游谋生,而这些旅游地点最初就是由狩猎者和掘金者发现并开发的。所以就是政府将不合法的活动变为合法的活动,故正确答案为A。
