二、Reading comprehension

(2×10=20) Directions: Read the following passages and make your proper choices.

11.(1)Many people say that“If one has not been to Mount Ali he will not realize what magic spell a steep towering mountain can cast on the beholder” and that “he will not be able to realize how beautiful and majestic the island of Taiwan is”.One of the eight most famed beauty spots of Taiwan,Mount Ali is located near the centre of the island,facing the western peaks of Yu’Shan or Jade Mountain to the east and dominating over the Jiayi-Tainan Plains to the west with the cities of Nantou and Aoqu to the north and the strategic Gaoxiong and Pingdong to the south.A lush,tree-clad mountain,now and then shrouded in mist and fog,it is a real enchanting experience to make one’s way up the mountain and experience the myriad changes in the scenery and the many exotic sights on the way.That is why so many sightseers would like to go holidaying there.About the origin of the name Ali,there is this story in circulation:Once upon a time,the Gaoshan or High Mountain Tribe had a chieftain whose name was A-Ba-Li.While giving chase to a white deer one day, he arrived at this spot.But then all of a sudden the deer had vanished from sight while before him was unfolding a beautiful scene of luxuriant wooded hills.So he persuaded his tribe to come with him and,after overcoming many difficulties,turned the mountain into new hunting grounds.In memory of this chieftain,the mountain was later given the name Ali.Mount Ali is probably named after______.

16.(2)There are four large and distinctive segments of tourism consumers that deserve special discussion,because of their sizes and importance to the industry.These segments are business and professional travelers,vacation and leisure travelers,mature travelers and international travelers.Let’s take a brief look at the size,importance,and common characteristics of each of these segments.Business travel is considered to be the backbone or “bread and butter” of the tourism industry,because business people are often required to travel as a part of their day-to-day activities.Since travel is a part of their jobs,the amount of money they spend on tourism services tends to stay fairly constant,and they are not as price-sensitive as vacation and leisure travelers.Therefore,the demand for business travel services is fairly inelastic. When demand does not significantly change with price fluctuations,it is said to be inelastic. In contrast,when demand changes substantially as price fluctuates,it is referred to as elastic.The demand for vacation and leisure travel and tourism services is elastic since it can be significantly influenced by changes in prices.The prices travelers pay for airline tickets provide an excellent example highlighting differences between inelastic and elastic demands.When looking at air fares,you may have noticed the least expensive air fares are the ones booked the furthest in advance of the scheduled departure date.Since business people typically have to travel on short notice,they are willing to pay higher fares to obtain needed services.However,since leisure travel is elastic and these individuals can plan their trips in advance,they are attracted to lower air fares.How would the concepts of inelastic and elastic demand work for a downtown commercial hotel experiencing heavy demand from business travelers during the weekdays while attempting to fill the rooms with leisure travelers on the weekend?As companies become more global in their activities,business travel should continue to grow. In fact,travel and the expenses related to travel are the third largest expense for corporations,right after labor and information-processing expenses.Special attention must be paid to the ______ of the four large distinctive segments of tourism consumers.

A.tourism industry
B.sizes and importance
C.vacation and leisure
D.common characteristics

17. The people working in tourism industry have their______ from business travel.

C.jobs
D.price fluctuations

B.significant influence
C.travel price
D.tourism services

110. The further in advance of the departure date the ______ is the air fares.

A.more elastic

C.higher
D.lower

21.People travel for a lot of reasons.Some tourists go to see battlefields or religious shrines. 26 are looking for culture,or simply want to have their picture 27 in front of famous places.But most European tourists are looking for a sunny beach to lie 28 . Northern Europeans are willing to pay a lot of money and 29 a lot of inconveniences for the sun because they have so little of it.Residents of cities like London,spend a lot of their winter in the dark 30 the days are so short,and much of the rest of the year in the rain.This is the reason the Mediterranean has always attracted them.Every summer,more than 25 million people travel to Mediterranean 31 and beaches for the same reason:sun! The huge crowds mean lots of money for the economies of Mediterranean countries.Italy’s 30,000 hotels are 32 solid every summer.And 13 million people 33 out on French beaches,parks,and roadsides.Spain’s long sandy coastline attracts more people than anywhere 34 . But there are 35 that the area is getting more tourists than it can handle. The Mediterranean is already one of the most polluted 36 on earth.And with increased tourism, it’s getting worse.The French can’t figure out what to do with all the garbage 37 by campers around St.Tropez. None of this,however,is spoiling anyone’s fun.Obviously, they don’t go there for clean water and solitude.They tolerate traffic 38 and seem to like crowded beaches.They don’t even mind the pollution.No matter 39 dirty the water is,the coastline still looks beautiful. And as long as the sun 40 ,it’s still better than sitting in the cold rain in London.26

六、Passage translation

(10×2=20)Directions: Translate the following passages into Chinese.

51.The tour operator’s brochure is a vital marketing tool, being the main influence on the customer’s decision to buy. Tourism is an intangible product which customers are obliged to purchase without having the opportunity to inspect it, and often from a base of very inadequate knowledge. In these circumstances, the brochure becomes the principle means of both informing them about the product and persuading them to purchase it. For this reason, very large sums are invested in the brochure itself, and in advertising to persuade the customers to enter the travel agent and pick brochure up.

52.Consumers for any type of product or service are today vastly different from what they were not long ago. The relentless flow of information to which we are all exposed on a daily basis, the readily available information, facts and details, literally available at our fingertips, on almost any topic, provides today’s consumers with a competence not existing in earlier times and confidence in defining their requirements and making their requirements and making their choices and decisions. And they make use of this increased self-reliance by letting the markets know. They buy what they want, or do not buy if it is not there, rather than simply buying what the market suggests one should buy.
