Unit 1 Wish You were Here 单元话题阅读理解练习 Unit 1 Wish You were Here单元话题：旅游观光 本资料共10篇专题训练，从上到下依次按照难度分为基础语篇巩固练和重难语篇提升练 基础语篇巩固练 Vacations are being redefined to improve your wellness experiences. The new buzzword is “sleep tourism” and the focus is on ensuring that you rest well at night and actually return from your vacation feeling refreshed. When away, vacationers traditionally like to make use of every second of the day. They rush from site to site, eat meals at all hours of the day, and treat themselves at night. And when finally returning to their hotel rooms at night, they find it hard to sleep. Besides, downtown hotels may be centrally located, with noisy traffic and flashing city lights pervading (弥漫). Also, many people simply do not sleep well when away from their own beds. All these factors lead to pain, allergies and hormonal issues, making sleep challenging. “Sleep tourism” addresses these issues and more. Special sleep suites have been thoughtfully designed to offer quiet and darkness. Hotels are investing in artificial intelligence mattresses (床垫) that adjust temperature and have cushions to relieve pressure points. The mattresses can also track sleep statistics and offer vacationers feedback on their sleep patterns. Sleep suites are a huge advance in tourism and are now found in wellness hotels around the world. Each offers different ways of inducing sleep, according to Condé Nast Traveler. Many provide a menu of relaxing teas and a tailored bed. No matter which sleep suite you choose, the goal is to sleep well so you can improve your health and well-being. Sinking into a comfortable bed should be the best part of a trip! The hope is that more hotels adapt to this wellness trend and return to the original purpose of a hotel room, which is sleep! Now you can tour around by day and have sweet dreams by night. 1．According to the text, what is the new trend in vacationing? A．Partying all night. B．Eating at special hours. C．Sleeping well on holiday. D．Rushing from site to site. 2．How do sleep suites improve the sleep experience for guests? A．By serving a wide variety of food. B．By introducing mattresses with AI technology. C．By offering in-room entertainment systems. D．By ensuring complete darkness in the rooms. 3．The underlined word “inducing” in Paragraph 4 probably means “________”. A．promoting. B．preventing. C．causing. D．affecting. 4．What can we infer about the future of hotels from the passage? A．All hotels will have artificial intelligence mattresses. B．Traditional hotels will disappear because of “sleep tourism”. C．More hotels will focus on providing better sleep experiences. D．Downtown hotels will move to quieter areas to avoid traffic noise. 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．A 4．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了为解决游客在旅游过程出现睡眠问题的一种旅游形式——睡眠旅游。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段中“The new buzzword is “sleep tourism” and the focus is on ensuring that you rest well at night and actually return from your vacation feeling refreshed.(新的流行词是“睡眠旅游”，其重点是确保你在晚上休息得很好，假期结束后感觉神清气爽。)”可知，度假的新趋势是“度假时睡好”。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Hotels are investing in artificial intelligence mattresses (床垫) that adjust temperature and have cushions to relieve pressure points. The mattresses can also track sleep statistics and offer vacationers feedback on their sleep patterns.(酒店正在投资人工智能床垫，它可以调节温度，并有缓冲来缓解压力点。这些床垫还可以跟踪睡眠统计数据，并为度假者提供睡眠模式的反馈。)”可知，人工智能床垫能调节温度、缓解压力点、追踪睡眠数据并反馈，直接提升睡眠体验；由此可知，睡眠套房通过引入人工智能床垫来改善客人睡眠。故选B。 3．词句猜测题。根据第四段中划线词下文“Many provide a menu of relaxing teas and a tailored bed. No matter which sleep suite you choose, the goal is to sleep well so you can improve your health and well-being. Sinking into a comfortable bed should be the best part of a trip!(许多套房还提供一系列舒缓的茶饮以及定制的床铺。无论您选择哪种睡眠套房，其目的都是让您能睡个好觉，从而改善您的健康和生活质量。)”可知，套房所提供的舒缓的茶饮以及定制的床铺都是促进睡眠的方法，“Each offers different ways of inducing sleep(每间套房都提供了不同的inducing睡眠方式。)”中的inducing表示“促进”，与promoting同义。故选A。 4．推理判断题。文章最后一段“The hope is that more hotels adapt to this wellness trend and return to the original purpose of a hotel room, which is sleep!(希望更多的酒店适应这种健康趋势，回归酒店房间的最初目的，那就是睡觉！)”明确呼吁希望更多酒店适应睡眠旅游这一健康趋势，回归酒店房间的初衷——提供睡眠；由此可推测，未来更多酒店会专注于提供更好的睡眠体验。故选C。 Here are the best places to stay in Alaska, which have been selected based on location, style, rooms, facilities and dining options. All hotels have been independently reviewed by our expert staff. A Taste of Alaska cottage (小屋) A Taste of Alaska cottage has a good location: close enough to Fairbanks for exploring and to view the Northern Lights. It began in 1947 as a family home and has developed over the years into an enjoyable place where family atmosphere runs deep. Price: £173 per person per night Talkeetna Alaskan cottage There is the look and feel of a classic mountainside cottage — an Alaska brown bear specimen (标本) with about 2,000 pounds shares the lobby (大厅) with a huge river rock fireplace, which is especially attractive. On a clear day the views of the Denali, the highest mountain in North America, and neighbouring mountains provide the picture visitors come from around the world to take. Price: £114 per person per night Chena Hot Springs Hotel Set in the Alaskan wilderness, Chena Hot Springs Hotel offers days spent in a warm coat, enjoying drinks at a bar made of ice, or relaxing in natural hot springs. And at nightfall, if Mother Nature permits, it’s the Northern Lights that will make you feel like you’re somewhere out of this world. Price: £205 per person per night Windsong Hotel The quiet and peaceful Windsong Hotel is located just outside the town of Seward. Kenai Fjords National Park is within easy reach, and stations for scenic tours of the Park are less than a 10-minute drive away. A rental car is recommended.

And at nightfall, if Mother Nature permits, it’s the Northern Lights that will make you feel like you’re somewhere out of this world.(Chena Hot Springs酒店位于阿拉斯加荒野中，您可以穿着温暖的外套度过一天，在冰吧享用饮品，或在天然温泉中放松身心。夜幕降临，如果大自然允许，北极光会让你觉得自己置身于另一个世界)”和“Price: £205 per person per night(价格：每人每晚205英镑)”可知，A Taste of Alaska cottage和Chena Hot Springs Hotel都可以观赏到北极光，但是A Taste of Alaska cottage的价格更低。故选A项。 2．细节理解题。根据Talkeetna Alaskan cottage部分中“There is the look and feel of a classic mountainside cottage — an Alaska brown bear specimen (标本) with about 2,000 pounds shares the lobby (大厅) with a huge river rock fireplace, which is especially attractive.(这里有一种经典的山边小屋的感觉——一个大约2000磅重的阿拉斯加棕熊标本与一个巨大的河石壁炉共享大厅，这特别有吸引力)”可知，Talkeetna Alaskan cottage的特别之处是有一个巨大的河石壁炉。故选D项。 3．推理判断题。根据第一段“Here are the best places to stay in Alaska, which have been selected based on location, style, rooms, facilities and dining options. All hotels have been independently reviewed by our expert staff.(以下是阿拉斯加最好的住宿地点，这些地点是根据位置、风格、房间、设施和餐饮选择挑选出来的。所有酒店都经过我们专业人员的独立审查)”以及后文对四个住宿地点的介绍可知，本文主要介绍了阿拉斯加四个住宿地点，由此推知，文章可能来自一本旅游杂志。故选C项。 Liu Hong, director of the Culture, Radio, Television and Tourism Administration in Ganzi, dresses as a swordsman from Louis Cha’s novel The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, becoming a spokesman for the tourism resources of his hometown. His videos have drawn much praise. “He’s exactly what I imagined a swordsman would be like in the old times,” one audience commented. In these videos, Liu acted like a hero of Chinese martial arts fictions, sometimes rowing on bamboo raft, sometimes wandering by the lake and sometimes leading a horse. All the short videos are produced in Liu’s spare time. Snow mountains, grasslands, forests and lakes — Ganzi, as part of the Silk Road and the Ancient Tea Horse Road, shows great natural beauty and also the cultural combination between Han and Tibetan ethnic cultures. After graduating from college, Liu chose to return to work in his hometown of Yajiang county, where he became director of the tourism bureau in 2002. In order to promote tourism in his hometown, he began taking pictures of his hometown and sent brochures to travel agencies. He has led villagers to build roads and personally received nearly 20,000 tourists. In 2019, Liu was appointed as director of the Culture, Radio, Television and Tourism Administration in Ganzi, and continued to innovate the forms of cultural tourism promotion. In 2021, the total number of tourists received by Ganzi will exceed 35 million and the tourism income will exceed 39 billion yuan. “I love my hometown. I wanted to do more for it while people still appreciate my videos online. That was my original intention,” he said. “The internet has introduced us to the outside world, and it has brought the outside world to us,” he said. “Many people visit Ganzi, and the villagers not only increase their income and improve their quality of life, but also meet friends from all over the world and broaden their horizons.” “Welcome to Ganzi and learn more about it.

In order to promote tourism in his hometown, he began taking pictures of his hometown and sent brochures to travel agencies. He has led villagers to build roads and personally received nearly 20,000 tourists. In 2012, Liu was appointed as director of the Culture, Radio, Television and Tourism Administration in Ganzi, and continued to innovate the forms of cultural tourism promotion. In 2021, the total number of tourists received by Ganzi will exceed 35 million and the tourism income will exceed 32 billion yuan.(大学毕业后，刘洪选择回到家乡雅江县工作，2002年在当地担任旅游局局长。为了推广家乡的旅游业，他开始为家乡拍照，并向旅行社发放宣传册。他还带领村民修路，亲自接待了近2万名游客。2012年，刘洪被任命为甘孜州文化广播电视和旅游局局长，继续创新文旅推广形式。2021年，甘孜州接待游客总量突破3500万人次，旅游收入超过320亿元。)”可知，该段首先介绍了刘洪2002年任县旅游局局长及其工作，后面接着介绍了他于2012年任命为甘孜州文化广播电视和旅游局局长及其工作和成果。所以该段主要讲的是他的工作经历。故选B。 3．推理判断题。根据第一段“Liu Hong, director of the Culture, Radio, Television and Tourism Administration in Ganzi, dresses as a swordsman from Louis Cha’s novel The Smiling, Proud Wanderer, becoming a spokesman for the tourism resources of his hometown.(甘孜州文化广播电视和旅游局局长刘洪，装扮成金庸小说《笑傲江湖》中的剑客，成为了家乡旅游资源的代言人。)”以及第四段中“After graduating from college, Liu chose to return to work in his hometown of Yajiang county, where he became director of the tourism bureau in 2002. In order to promote tourism in his hometown, he began taking pictures of his hometown and sent brochures to travel agencies.

Most of the buildings along the main street are eye-catching, in deep blues and greens, dotted with red and yellow to form diverse patterns and designs. Santa Catarin a Palopo was once a sleepy town of 5,000 people, most of them dependent on agricultural work. But as agriculture began to dry up here, poverty came. To deal with poverty and promote economic growth through tourism, a small but creative group of laborers, artisans, domestic workers and stay-at-home moms created the Pintando Santa Catarina Palopo project. The project aimed to paint all 850 homes and buildings in bright colors to change the hillside town into a work of art. “We wanted to paint the houses with colors and figures that represent the community,” says the project's executive director Stephany Blanco. “Families can choose designs for their house that are representative of the family.” One of the most representative characteristics of the region is the blue huipil, a traditional blouse which has been worn commonly by local women since the 16th century.That deep sky blue was chosen as the primary color for the Pintando project, with secondary colors found in the sunsets and the nearby lake to make the design more attractive. Inspiration was also found in local culture, symbols such as volcanoes, flowers, and the national bird ofGuatemala. Each week, local artists, community members and tourists pick up paintbrushes to make buildings colorful. “At first, the idea of the project was uncertain, but now you can see a considerable difference in the town,” Melissa Whitbeck said. “The color of the buildings is believed to improve the quality of life of the people. It uplifts the people's mood and encourages them to be proud of their hometown.” 1．Why was the Pintando Santa Catarina Palopo project started? A．Because of a workforce shortage. B．Due to the poor economic conditions. C．Thanks to the increase in population. D．For the old-fashioned farming ways. 2．What is the project about? A．Building family art galleries in Guatemala. B．Creating job opportunities for local artists. C．Developing local tourism by selling artworks. D．Changing the town into a cultural destination. 3．What is the inspiration of the primary color for the project? A．The surrounding volcanoes. B．Mayan-styled butterflies. C．A type of traditional clothing. D．The national bird of Guatemala. 4．What is Melissa’ s attitude towards the project? A．Positive. B．Critical. C．Concerned. D．Doubtful. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．C 4．A 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了危地马拉阿蒂特兰湖高地上的圣卡塔琳娜-帕洛波小镇，为了摆脱贫困、发展旅游，居民自发把整座山城涂成绚丽“画布”，使其成为文化目的地，从而改善生活的故事。 1．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“But as agriculture began to dry up here, poverty came.

(但随着这里的农业开始枯竭，贫困来了。为了解决贫困问题，并通过旅游业促进经济增长，一个由劳工、工匠、家政工人和全职妈妈组成的小而富有创造力的团体创建了Pintando Santa Catarina Palopo项目。)”可知，Pintando Santa Catarina Palopo项目启动的直接原因是经济困顿、贫困加剧。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“To deal with poverty and promote economic growth through tourism, a small but creative group of laborers, artisans, domestic workers and stay-at-home moms created the Pintando Santa Catarina Palopo project. (为了解决贫困问题，并通过旅游业促进经济增长，一个由劳工、工匠、家政工人和全职妈妈组成的小而富有创造力的团体创建了Pintando Santa Catarina Palopo项目。)”及第三段中的“The project aimed to paint all 850 homes and buildings in bright colors to change the hillside town into a work of art. (该项目旨在将所有850个住宅和建筑涂成明亮的颜色，将山坡小镇变成一件艺术品。)”可知，该项目的核心目标是把小镇整体变成艺术品，从而吸引游客、打造文化目的地。故选D。 3．细节理解题。根据第四段中的“One of the most representative characteristics of the region is the blue huipil, a traditional blouse which has been worn commonly by local women since the 16th century.That deep sky blue was chosen as the primary color for the Pintando project, with secondary colors found in the sunsets and the nearby lake to make the design more attractive.

It uplifts the people's mood and encourages them to be proud of their hometown.” (“起初，这个项目的想法是不确定的，但现在你可以看到镇上有很大的不同，” Melissa Whitbeck说。“建筑的颜色被认为可以提高人们的生活质量。它振奋了人们的情绪，鼓励他们为家乡感到骄傲。”)”可推知，她对项目成效表示赞赏与肯定，态度积极。故选A。 Travel has long been celebrated for its ability to overpass different countries, connect people from diverse backgrounds. Certain destinations may hold a special appeal to different people. For example, someone who values adventure and outdoor activities may be more likely to visit destinations known for their natural landscapes and outdoor amusement opportunities. On the other hand, someone with a strong love for history may be drawn to destinations with rich history, tradition, and cultural diversity. Portugal belongs to the latter. Tourism in this country plays a crucial role in promoting cross-cultural understanding and building meaningful connections between travelers and local communities. As travelers immerse (沉浸) themselves in new experiences, engage with local communities, and step outside their comfort zones, they gain a deeper appreciation for the complexities of different cultures and perspectives. Cultural exchange here is not just a concept — it is a lived experience that enriches the lives of both travelers and locals. From participating in traditional festivals and cooking experiences to learning age-old customs, travelers have countless opportunities to break down cultural barriers and connect with Portuguese culture on a personal level. In Portugal, tourism has become a chance for amplifying diverse voices and stories that might otherwise go unheard. Through initiatives such as community-based tourism projects and storytelling workshops, travelers can engage with local communities in meaningful ways, promoting mutual (相互的) respect. With the European Structural and Investment funds (ESIF) support, Portugal is building roads, expanding airports, and improving public transportation systems, making it easier for tourists to explore beyond popular cities like Lisbon and Porto. These improvements are vital for unlocking the potential of lesser-known regions, allowing visitors to experience the diverse landscapes and rich cultural heritage found throughout the countryside. This ensures that all regions of Portugal can share in the benefits of a booming tourism, attracting a broader audience of travelers eager to discover new destinations. 1．What makes Portugal special in terms of tourism characteristics?

Citizens from 74 countries cann — now enter China for up to 30 days without a visa, a big jump from previous regulations. The government has been expanding visa-free access to boost tourism, the economy, and its global influence. More than 20 million foreign visitors entered without a visa in 2024 — more than double the number in the previous year, according to the National Immigration Administration. “This really helps people to travel because it is such a trouble to apply for a visa,” Giorgi Shavadze, a Georgian living in Austria,said on a recent visit to the Temple of Heaven in Beijing. While most tourist spots still attract more local visitors than foreigners, travel agencies and guides are preparing for a larger increase of tourists coming to China during the summer holiday season. “I’m fully booked with tours and struggling to keep up,” says Gao Jun, an English-speaking tour guide with over 20 years of experience. To meet growing demand, he started a training program for people who want to become English-speaking tour guides. “I just can’t handle them all on my own,” he said. In December 2023, China announced visa-free entry for citizens of France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain and Malaysia. Almost all of Europe has been added since then. Travelers from five Latin American countries and Uzbekistan became eligible in June, 2025, followed by four in the Middle East. The total grew to 75 on July 16 with the addition of Azerbaijan. “The new visa policies are 100% beneficial to us,” said Jenny Zhao, a managing director of WildChina, which specializes in high-end and luxury routes for international travelers. “Air, hotel and other bookings on our website for travel to China doubled in the first three months of this year compared with the same period last year, with 75% of the visitors from visa-free countries.” 1．What is Gao Jun doing to meet the demand? A．Training new guides. B．Hiring foreign guides. C．Limiting tourist numbers. D．Opening a new tour agency. 2．Which country was most recently added to China’s visa-free list? A．Georgia. B．Malaysia. C．Uzbekistan. D．Azerbaijan. 3．What does Jenny Zhao’s statement suggest? A．Luxury travel is losing popularity. B．Visa-free policies increase tourism. C．WildChina now focuses on budget travel. D．Her business has increased by 75% this year. 4．Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A．How to Travel to China Easily B．China Welcomes Back Tourists C．Tourism Development in China D．Tour Guides Face Challenges in China 【答案】1．A 2．D 3．B 4．B 【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了中国放宽签证政策后外国游客数量增长及相关影响。 1．细节理解题。根据第三段中“ “I’ m fully booked with tours and struggling to keep up,” says Gao Jun, an English-speaking tour guide with over 20 years of experience. To meet growing demand, he started a training program for people who want to become English-speaking tour guides.(“我的旅游行程已经全部订满，都快忙不过来了，”拥有20多年经验的英语导游高军说。为了满足不断增长的需求，他启动了一个针对想成为英语导游的人的培训项目。)”可知，高军正在培训新导游以满足需求。故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据第四段中“The total grew to 75 on July 16 with the addition of Azerbaijan.(7月16日，随着阿塞拜疆的加入，总数增加到75个。)”可知，最近加入中国免签名单的国家是阿塞拜疆。故选D。 3．细节理解题。根据最后一段““The new visa policies are 100% beneficial to us,” said Jenny Zhao, a managing director of WildChina, which specializes in high-end and luxury routes for international travelers. “Air, hotel and other bookings on our website for travel to China doubled in the first three months of this year compared with the same period last year, with 75% of the visitors from visa-free countries.”(“新的签证政策对我们100%有利，”专门为国际旅行者提供高端和豪华路线的WildChina总经理赵珍妮说。“与去年同期相比，今年前三个月我们网站上前往中国的机票、酒店和其他预订量翻了一番，其中75%的游客来自免签国家。”)”可知，她的话表明免签政策增加了旅游业。故选B。 4．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是根据第一段中“Foreign tourists are returning to China in growing numbers after the country loosened its visa policy to an unusually high level.(在中国将签证政策放宽到异常高的水平后，外国游客正越来越多地回到中国。)”可知，文章主要讲述了中国放宽签证政策后外国游客数量增长的情况，因此B选项“China Welcomes Back Tourists(中国欢迎游客回归)”最符合文章主旨。故选B。 Ecotourism has become an increasingly popular way for travelers to explore the world while minimizing their environmental impact. Unlike traditional tourism, which often focuses on luxury accommodations and crowded attractions, ecotourism emphasizes responsible travel to natural areas that conserves the environment and improves the well-being of local communities. The core principles of ecotourism include minimizing environmental damage, respecting local cultures, and supporting conservation efforts. Travelers engaging in ecotourism activities typically visit protected areas such as national parks, wildlife reserves, or remote communities. They participate in activities like bird watching, hiking, or learning about traditional crafts from local residents. These experiences not only allow travelers to connect with nature but also contribute to the preservation of fragile ecosystems. One successful example of ecotourism is the Galapagos Islands in Ecuador. Faced with threats from over-tourism in the 20th century, the government implemented strict regulations to protect the unique wildlife and landscapes. Today, visitors to the Galapagos must follow designated routes, be accompanied by certified guides, and pay a conservation fee that funds environmental protection projects. This approach has helped maintain the islands’ biodiversity while providing income for local communities through tourism. Another example is Costa Rica, often regarded as a leader in ecotourism. The country has transformed its natural resources into a sustainable tourism industry, with over 25% of its land protected in national parks and reserves. Tourists can explore rainforests, observe sea turtles nesting, or stay in eco-lodges that use renewable energy and support local farmers. This model has not only preserved Costa Rica’s natural beauty but also reduced poverty in rural areas by creating jobs in tourism. However, ecotourism is not without challenges. Some destinations market themselves as “eco-friendly” without implementing meaningful conservation measures, a practice known as “greenwashing.” Travelers must be cautious and research companies before booking to ensure their tourism dollars support genuine environmental and community initiatives. Additionally, even well-managed ecotourism can have negative impacts if visitor numbers exceed the carrying capacity of an area, leading to habitat disturbance or increased waste. To practice responsible ecotourism, experts recommend choosing small-scale, locally owned accommodations, participating in guided tours led by local experts, and following the “leave no trace” principle by taking all trash with you and avoiding damage to plants and wildlife. By making informed choices, travelers can enjoy meaningful experiences while helping to protect the planet for future generations. 1．What is the main difference between ecotourism and traditional tourism? A．Ecotourism focuses on luxury accommodations. B．Ecotourism emphasizes responsible travel and environmental conservation. C．Traditional tourism only visits natural areas. D．Traditional tourism requires following strict regulations. 2．Why does the author mention the Galapagos Islands? A．To show the negative effects of over-tourism. B．To introduce a popular luxury travel destination. C．To provide a successful example of ecotourism. D．To explain how to get certified as an ecotourism guide. 3．What does the word “greenwashing” in Paragraph 5 probably mean? A．Making false claims about being environmentally friendly. B．Using green colors in tourism advertisements. C．Planting trees to offset carbon emissions from travel. D．Implementing strict environmental protection measures. 4．What is recommended for responsible ecotourism according to the text? A．Choosing large international hotel chains. B．Exploring natural areas without a guide. C．Leaving trash in designated areas. D．Selecting locally owned accommodations. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．A 4．D 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了生态旅游的特点、原则、成功案例、挑战及负责任生态旅游的建议。 1．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Unlike traditional tourism, which often focuses on luxury accommodations and crowded attractions, ecotourism emphasizes responsible travel to natural areas that conserves the environment and improves the well-being of local communities.(与传统旅游往往注重豪华住宿和拥挤景点不同，生态旅游强调对自然区域进行负责任的旅行，以保护环境并改善当地社区的福祉)”可知，生态旅游与传统旅游的主要区别在于生态旅游强调负责任的旅行和环境保护。故选B。 2．推理判断题。根据第三段中“One successful example of ecotourism is the Galapagos Islands in Ecuador.(生态旅游的一个成功例子是厄瓜多尔的加拉帕戈斯群岛)”可知，作者提到加拉帕戈斯群岛是为了提供一个生态旅游的成功例子。故选C。 3．词句猜测题。根据第五段中“Some destinations market themselves as “eco-friendly” without implementing meaningful conservation measures, a practice known as “greenwashing.”(一些旅游目的地将自己宣传为‘环保’，但实际上并没有采取有意义的保护措施，这种做法被称为“greenwashing”)”可知，“greenwashing”指的是虚假宣传环保的行为，即“声称自己环保但实际上并非如此”。故选A。 4．细节理解题。根据最后一段中“To practice responsible ecotourism, experts recommend choosing small-scale, locally owned accommodations, participating in guided tours led by local experts, and following the “leave no trace” principle by taking all trash with you and avoiding damage to plants and wildlife.(为了实践负责任的生态旅游，专家建议选择当地拥有的小型住宿，参加由当地专家带领的导游，并遵循‘不留痕迹’的原则，随身携带所有垃圾，避免损害植物和野生动物)”可知，文本建议选择当地拥有的住宿以实践负责任的生态旅游。故选D。 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ Unit 1 Wish You were Here 单元话题阅读理解练习 Unit 1 Wish You were Here单元话题：旅游观光 本资料共10篇专题训练，从上到下依次按照难度分为基础语篇巩固练和重难语篇提升练 基础语篇巩固练 Vacations are being redefined to improve your wellness experiences. The new buzzword is “sleep tourism” and the focus is on ensuring that you rest well at night and actually return from your vacation feeling refreshed. When away, vacationers traditionally like to make use of every second of the day. They rush from site to site, eat meals at all hours of the day, and treat themselves at night. And when finally returning to their hotel rooms at night, they find it hard to sleep. Besides, downtown hotels may be centrally located, with noisy traffic and flashing city lights pervading (弥漫). Also, many people simply do not sleep well when away from their own beds. All these factors lead to pain, allergies and hormonal issues, making sleep challenging. “Sleep tourism” addresses these issues and more. Special sleep suites have been thoughtfully designed to offer quiet and darkness. Hotels are investing in artificial intelligence mattresses (床垫) that adjust temperature and have cushions to relieve pressure points. The mattresses can also track sleep statistics and offer vacationers feedback on their sleep patterns. Sleep suites are a huge advance in tourism and are now found in wellness hotels around the world. Each offers different ways of inducing sleep, according to Condé Nast Traveler. Many provide a menu of relaxing teas and a tailored bed. No matter which sleep suite you choose, the goal is to sleep well so you can improve your health and well-being. Sinking into a comfortable bed should be the best part of a trip! The hope is that more hotels adapt to this wellness trend and return to the original purpose of a hotel room, which is sleep! Now you can tour around by day and have sweet dreams by night. 1．According to the text, what is the new trend in vacationing? A．Partying all night. B．Eating at special hours. C．Sleeping well on holiday. D．Rushing from site to site. 2．How do sleep suites improve the sleep experience for guests? A．By serving a wide variety of food. B．By introducing mattresses with AI technology. C．By offering in-room entertainment systems. D．By ensuring complete darkness in the rooms. 3．The underlined word “inducing” in Paragraph 4 probably means “________”. A．promoting. B．preventing. C．causing. D．affecting. 4．What can we infer about the future of hotels from the passage? A．All hotels will have artificial intelligence mattresses. B．Traditional hotels will disappear because of “sleep tourism”. C．More hotels will focus on providing better sleep experiences. D．Downtown hotels will move to quieter areas to avoid traffic noise.

At the 2025 China Culture and Tourism Industries Expo ceremony in Wuhan, robots took center stage, creating a fascinating mix of technology and tradition. Humanoid robots dressed in traditional costumes performed dances with human performers, while robotic baristas (咖啡师) made coffee and robotic dogs walked around, creating an amazing futuristic atmosphere. The expo, hosted by China’s Ministry of Culture and Tourism from September 12-15, attracted over 225,000 visitors. More than 2,000 domestic exhibitors participated. Half of the visitors came from outside Wuhan, and hotel bookings in the city increased by 43.5 percent during the event. The business results were impressive. Cultural and tourism industry deals worth 810 million yuan were signed, while investment projects totaling 23.28 billion yuan were secured. The trade of cultural products reached 170 million yuan, showing the strong commercial success of the event. Robotics was the star attraction. According to Ren Yutong from the Guangdong Robotics Association, robots are playing important roles in stage shows, exhibitions and theme parks. They can adapt their interactions to different situations, giving tourists different experiences. Robots could also solve staff shortages in scenic areas by doing translation services and answering visitor questions. Virtual reality technology offered new ways to explore destinations. Wearing special headsets, visitors could experience rowing on Tianjin’s Haihe River or walking on Wudang Mountain without actually traveling there. Beyond technology, the expo featured colorful performances, traditional craft workshops, regional food tastings, and cultural product sales. The most popular item was a refrigerator magnet shaped like a phoenix crown (凤冠) from the National Museum of China’s collection.

Coming into the town of Santa Catarin a Palopó, in the highlands of Lake Atitlan inGuatemala, the first thing you notice is the bright colors. Most of the buildings along the main street are eye-catching, in deep blues and greens, dotted with red and yellow to form diverse patterns and designs. Santa Catarin a Palopo was once a sleepy town of 5,000 people, most of them dependent on agricultural work. But as agriculture began to dry up here, poverty came. To deal with poverty and promote economic growth through tourism, a small but creative group of laborers, artisans, domestic workers and stay-at-home moms created the Pintando Santa Catarina Palopo project. The project aimed to paint all 850 homes and buildings in bright colors to change the hillside town into a work of art. “We wanted to paint the houses with colors and figures that represent the community,” says the project's executive director Stephany Blanco. “Families can choose designs for their house that are representative of the family.” One of the most representative characteristics of the region is the blue huipil, a traditional blouse which has been worn commonly by local women since the 16th century.That deep sky blue was chosen as the primary color for the Pintando project, with secondary colors found in the sunsets and the nearby lake to make the design more attractive. Inspiration was also found in local culture, symbols such as volcanoes, flowers, and the national bird ofGuatemala. Each week, local artists, community members and tourists pick up paintbrushes to make buildings colorful. “At first, the idea of the project was uncertain, but now you can see a considerable difference in the town,” Melissa Whitbeck said. “The color of the buildings is believed to improve the quality of life of the people. It uplifts the people's mood and encourages them to be proud of their hometown.” 1．Why was the Pintando Santa Catarina Palopo project started? A．Because of a workforce shortage. B．Due to the poor economic conditions. C．Thanks to the increase in population. D．For the old-fashioned farming ways. 2．What is the project about? A．Building family art galleries in Guatemala.

C．A type of traditional clothing. D．The national bird of Guatemala. 4．What is Melissa’ s attitude towards the project? A．Positive. B．Critical. C．Concerned. D．Doubtful. Travel has long been celebrated for its ability to overpass different countries, connect people from diverse backgrounds. Certain destinations may hold a special appeal to different people. For example, someone who values adventure and outdoor activities may be more likely to visit destinations known for their natural landscapes and outdoor amusement opportunities. On the other hand, someone with a strong love for history may be drawn to destinations with rich history, tradition, and cultural diversity. Portugal belongs to the latter. Tourism in this country plays a crucial role in promoting cross-cultural understanding and building meaningful connections between travelers and local communities. As travelers immerse (沉浸) themselves in new experiences, engage with local communities, and step outside their comfort zones, they gain a deeper appreciation for the complexities of different cultures and perspectives. Cultural exchange here is not just a concept — it is a lived experience that enriches the lives of both travelers and locals. From participating in traditional festivals and cooking experiences to learning age-old customs, travelers have countless opportunities to break down cultural barriers and connect with Portuguese culture on a personal level. In Portugal, tourism has become a chance for amplifying diverse voices and stories that might otherwise go unheard. Through initiatives such as community-based tourism projects and storytelling workshops, travelers can engage with local communities in meaningful ways, promoting mutual (相互的) respect. With the European Structural and Investment funds (ESIF) support, Portugal is building roads, expanding airports, and improving public transportation systems, making it easier for tourists to explore beyond popular cities like Lisbon and Porto. These improvements are vital for unlocking the potential of lesser-known regions, allowing visitors to experience the diverse landscapes and rich cultural heritage found throughout the countryside. This ensures that all regions of Portugal can share in the benefits of a booming tourism, attracting a broader audience of travelers eager to discover new destinations. 1．What makes Portugal special in terms of tourism characteristics?

Citizens from 74 countries cann — now enter China for up to 30 days without a visa, a big jump from previous regulations. The government has been expanding visa-free access to boost tourism, the economy, and its global influence. More than 20 million foreign visitors entered without a visa in 2024 — more than double the number in the previous year, according to the National Immigration Administration. “This really helps people to travel because it is such a trouble to apply for a visa,” Giorgi Shavadze, a Georgian living in Austria,said on a recent visit to the Temple of Heaven in Beijing. While most tourist spots still attract more local visitors than foreigners, travel agencies and guides are preparing for a larger increase of tourists coming to China during the summer holiday season. “I’m fully booked with tours and struggling to keep up,” says Gao Jun, an English-speaking tour guide with over 20 years of experience. To meet growing demand, he started a training program for people who want to become English-speaking tour guides. “I just can’t handle them all on my own,” he said. In December 2023, China announced visa-free entry for citizens of France, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands, Spain and Malaysia. Almost all of Europe has been added since then. Travelers from five Latin American countries and Uzbekistan became eligible in June, 2025, followed by four in the Middle East. The total grew to 75 on July 16 with the addition of Azerbaijan. “The new visa policies are 100% beneficial to us,” said Jenny Zhao, a managing director of WildChina, which specializes in high-end and luxury routes for international travelers. “Air, hotel and other bookings on our website for travel to China doubled in the first three months of this year compared with the same period last year, with 75% of the visitors from visa-free countries.” 1．What is Gao Jun doing to meet the demand? A．Training new guides. B．Hiring foreign guides. C．Limiting tourist numbers. D．Opening a new tour agency. 2．Which country was most recently added to China’s visa-free list? A．Georgia. B．Malaysia. C．Uzbekistan. D．Azerbaijan. 3．What does Jenny Zhao’s statement suggest? A．Luxury travel is losing popularity. B．Visa-free policies increase tourism. C．WildChina now focuses on budget travel. D．Her business has increased by 75% this year. 4．Which of the following would be the best title for the text? A．How to Travel to China Easily B．China Welcomes Back Tourists C．Tourism Development in China D．Tour Guides Face Challenges in China Ecotourism has become an increasingly popular way for travelers to explore the world while minimizing their environmental impact. Unlike traditional tourism, which often focuses on luxury accommodations and crowded attractions, ecotourism emphasizes responsible travel to natural areas that conserves the environment and improves the well-being of local communities. The core principles of ecotourism include minimizing environmental damage, respecting local cultures, and supporting conservation efforts. Travelers engaging in ecotourism activities typically visit protected areas such as national parks, wildlife reserves, or remote communities. They participate in activities like bird watching, hiking, or learning about traditional crafts from local residents. These experiences not only allow travelers to connect with nature but also contribute to the preservation of fragile ecosystems. One successful example of ecotourism is the Galapagos Islands in Ecuador. Faced with threats from over-tourism in the 20th century, the government implemented strict regulations to protect the unique wildlife and landscapes. Today, visitors to the Galapagos must follow designated routes, be accompanied by certified guides, and pay a conservation fee that funds environmental protection projects. This approach has helped maintain the islands’ biodiversity while providing income for local communities through tourism. Another example is Costa Rica, often regarded as a leader in ecotourism. The country has transformed its natural resources into a sustainable tourism industry, with over 25% of its land protected in national parks and reserves. Tourists can explore rainforests, observe sea turtles nesting, or stay in eco-lodges that use renewable energy and support local farmers. This model has not only preserved Costa Rica’s natural beauty but also reduced poverty in rural areas by creating jobs in tourism. However, ecotourism is not without challenges. Some destinations market themselves as “eco-friendly” without implementing meaningful conservation measures, a practice known as “greenwashing.” Travelers must be cautious and research companies before booking to ensure their tourism dollars support genuine environmental and community initiatives. Additionally, even well-managed ecotourism can have negative impacts if visitor numbers exceed the carrying capacity of an area, leading to habitat disturbance or increased waste. To practice responsible ecotourism, experts recommend choosing small-scale, locally owned accommodations, participating in guided tours led by local experts, and following the “leave no trace” principle by taking all trash with you and avoiding damage to plants and wildlife. By making informed choices, travelers can enjoy meaningful experiences while helping to protect the planet for future generations. 1．What is the main difference between ecotourism and traditional tourism?
