Modern Sun Worshippers
People travel for a lot of reasons. Some tourists go to see battlefields or religious shrines. Others are looking for culture, or simply want to have their pictures taken in front of famous places. But most European tourists are looking for a sunny beach to lie on.
Northern Europeans are willing to pay a lot of money and put up with a lot of inconveniences for the sun because they have so little of it. Residents of cities like London, Copenhagen, and Amsterdam spend a lot of their winter in the dark because the days are so short, and much of the rest of the year in the rain. This is the reason why the Mediterranean has always attracted them. Every summer, more than 25 million people travel to Mediterranean resorts and beaches for their vacation. They all come for the same reason: sun!
The huge crowds mean lots of money for the economies of Mediterranean countries. Italy’ s 30, 000 hotels are booked solid eveiy summer. And 13 million people camp out on French beaches, parks, and roadsides. Spain’s long sandy coastline attracts more people than anywhere else. 37 million tourists visit yearly, or one tourist for every person living in Spain.
But there are signs that the area is getting more tourism than it can handle. The Mediterranean is already one of the most polluted seas on earth. And with increased tourism, it’ s getting worse. The French can’t figure out what to do with all the garbage left by campers around St. Tropez. And in many places, swimming is dangerous because of pollution.
None of this, however, is spoiling anyone’ s fun. The Mediterranean gets more popular every year with tourists. Obviously, they don’ t go there for clean water and solitude. They tolerate traffic jams and seem to like crowded beaches. They don’ t even mind the pollution. No matter how dirty the water is, the coastline still looks beautiful. And as long as the sun shines, it’ s still better than sitting in the cold rain in Berlin, London, or Oslo.
When people travel, they like to take pictures in front of famous places by themselves.
选项
A、Right
B、Wrong
C、Not mentioned
答案
B
解析
由文章第一段第三句话“Others are looking for culture,or simply want to have their pic—tures taken in front of famous places.”可知,一些旅游者是为了追寻文化之源,或仅仅是想在名胜之地请人给他们拍几张照。而该题句意是,人们旅行时,喜欢在名胜之地自己给自己拍照。因此该叙述是错误的。故选B。
