There are many reasons to learn Spanish. But how will you do it? Many high schoolers (and even middle schoolers) have learned a new language. Did you take a class to learn Spanish? Perhaps you didn’t, but you still want to learn. What can you do? There are plenty of ways you could learn Spanish. Now, we are not talking about learning it from someone you barely know off the streets! Learning Spanish could be a lot more fun and should not be looked at as punishment. Okay, so where do you start when trying to learn Spanish? Here’s one website that can help you. It’s The Learn Spanish Resource Site. You can learn Spanish online through one of the many Spanish teaching websites. Not for you? Get hands on options to learning Spanish by observing if anything is available at your local school. Still want more options to learn Spanish? You can always check out the tapes and videos that can help you learn slowly.

Providing Spanish language on your website or throughout your business can help you attract new customers. You could also learn a lot from learning Spanish about the culture, the traditions, and the history of the country. Learning Spanish is a great way to expand your horizons.

Do you prefer to vacation away from other tourists? Are you careful to take only memories and to leave only footprints? If you answered yes to more than one of these questions, you just might be an ecotourist. Ecotourists are people who want to experience the unspoiled natural world—and leave it that way when they return home. This trend started in the 1990s, and ecotourism is now growing three times faster than the entire tourism industry. The Kapawi Ecolodge in Ecuador’s remote Amazon Basin is contributing to that expansion, and it gives a snapshot of what ecotourism looks like. At the Ecolodge, a small group of cabins (小木屋) sits in the middle of the Achuar people’s reserve (自然保护区) and can only be reached by air. From here, visitors can explore parts of the Amazon rainforest seen by few outsiders. As they do, local Achuar guides explain how the forest is like their supermarket, where they find food, clothing, medicine and tools. As a result, tourists learn to appreciate the local culture as well as the natural environment. The owners of Kapawi pay monthly rent to the Achuar people, but they also train the community to run and manage the lodge. They have agreed on a plan to turn the operation over to the Achuar completely by 2025. The owners are working to make ecotourism benefit and empower the local people. You probably won’t start your own ecolodge, but you can be an ecotourist if you follow these guidelines: Protect the environment; Support local businesses; Respect the local customs and traditions. The world is full of fascinating places to visit. As an ecotourist, you can enjoy them yourself and make sure that they remain beautiful for future generations as well. * eco-: connected with the environment, environment-friendly Please answer the following questions in complete sentences: 41.

Besides what is mentioned in the passage, what else can an ecotourist do? (Open question) _____________________________________________________ 【答案】41. Yes, they do. 42. They can only reach it by air. 43. Because they want to make ecotourism benefit and empower the local people. 44. The writer suggests protecting the environment, supporting local businesses and respecting the local customs and traditions. 45. 开放性试题，言之有理即可。参考答案为：An ecotourist can pick up rubbish and avoid buying products made from wild animals. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，介绍生态游客的定义、厄瓜多尔Kapawi生态旅馆案例以及成为生态游客需要遵守的准则。 【41题详解】 原文第一段就提出的生态游客的典型行为特征“Are you careful to take only memories and to leave only footprints? If you answered yes to more than one of these questions, you just might be an ecotourist.”， 生态游客的核心行为准则就是旅行时只留下脚印、只带走美好回忆，不对目的地留下额外的人为破坏痕迹，应用肯定回答。 【42题详解】 原文第三段提到“At the Ecolodge, a small group of cabins sits in the middle of the Achuar people’s reserve and can only be reached by air.”，该区域地处厄瓜多尔亚马逊流域深处，没有陆路通行条件，游客只能通过乘坐飞机抵达该区域，直接提取答案。 【43题详解】 原文第四段“The owners are working to make ecotourism benefit and empower the local people.” 表达了该举措的目的：经营者希望生态旅游真正为当地居民带来收益，赋能当地社区，让本地居民可以自主可持续地运营生态旅游项目，实现自然保护和社区发展的双赢，直接提取答案。 【44题详解】 原文最后一部分“You probably won’t start your own ecolodge, but you can be an ecotourist if you follow these guidelines: Protect the environment; Support local businesses; Respect the local customs and traditions.”明确列出了三条核心准则：主动保护环境、优先支持当地本土商户、尊重目的地的本土风俗与文化传统，这是作者给出的成为合格生态游客的明确行为要求。 【45题详解】 开放性试题，答案不唯一，观点贴合生态旅游理念即可。参考答案为：An ecotourist can pick up rubbish and avoid buying products made from wild animals.

If you answered yes to more than one of these questions, you just might be an ecotourist. Ecotourists are people who want to experience the unspoiled natural world—and leave it that way when they return home. This trend started in the 1990s, and ecotourism is now growing three times faster than the entire tourism industry. The Kapawi Ecolodge in Ecuador’s remote Amazon Basin is contributing to that expansion, and it gives a snapshot of what ecotourism looks like. At the Ecolodge, a small group of cabins (小木屋) sits in the middle of the Achuar people’s reserve (自然保护区) and can only be reached by air. From here, visitors can explore parts of the Amazon rainforest seen by few outsiders. As they do, local Achuar guides explain how the forest is like their supermarket, where they find food, clothing, medicine and tools. As a result, tourists learn to appreciate the local culture as well as the natural environment. The owners of Kapawi pay monthly rent to the Achuar people, but they also train the community to run and manage the lodge. They have agreed on a plan to turn the operation over to the Achuar completely by 2025. The owners are working to make ecotourism benefit and empower the local people. You probably won’t start your own ecolodge, but you can be an ecotourist if you follow these guidelines: Protect the environment; Support local businesses; Respect the local customs and traditions. The world is full of fascinating places to visit. As an ecotourist, you can enjoy them yourself and make sure that they remain beautiful for future generations as well. * eco-: connected with the environment, environment-friendly Please answer the following questions in complete sentences: 41.
