Taking trips to places with fewer people and beautiful natural scenery has become a fashion in China so far. In other words, rural (乡村的) tourism is becoming popular among Chinese tourists. Besides the influence of the pandemic(流行) , there must be some other reasons. Here are some of them.
Wang Shang works for a Beijing-based company that helps organize countryside tours. She believes that experiencing a different lifestyle is an important reason why citizens(公民) travel to rural areas. Most of the visitors from cities are used to buying food in supermarkets. But in rural areas, they can easily get them on farms. They are used to watching high buildings and busy traffic. But in rural areas, they can enjoy more peaceful and clean rivers or mountains.
Tourists' expectations for rural tourism are not limited (局限于) to enjoying natural scenery and experiencing the countryside life. Cao Yiqin, a 26-year-old tourist, told us that rural trips help her not only “enjoy the natural beauty” but also “reduce stress by escaping (逃离) the busy city life and getting closer to nature”.
Apart from the above reasons, the government encourages cultural companies and their employees (员工) to go to the countryside to help with local business. They have brought some great changes to the rural areas, including the renovation (翻新) of the buildings, the spread of rural culture and so on.
The trend has also been pushed by some Chinese Internet stars. An Internet star has post-ed many videos of traditional Chinese rural life on the Internet and attracted (吸引) a large number of tourists.
13. What is the main idea of Paragraph 2?
A. People are tired of city life.
B. Rural life is better than city life.
C. People want to experience a different life.
D. Food on farms is healthier than that in supermarkets.
14. What does the underlined word “They” in Paragraph 4 refer to (指的是) ?
A. The visitors from cities. B. The government offices.
C. The people living in the countryside. D. The cultural companies and employees.
15. Which of the following best shows the structure of the passage?
16. What would be the best title for the passage?
A. Tourists travel-in the countryside
B. Rural tourism becomes more popular
C. Chinese people escape from the city life
D. The government encourages rural tourism
