a. it is extremely important to develop tourism b. building roads and hotel is essentialc. support facilities are highly necessaryd. planning is of great importance to tourism72. too many tourism can cause all these problems except _.a. a bad impact on other industries b. a change of tourists customsc. over crowdedness of places of interest d. pressure in traffic73. it is good for local people to be well aware that tourism will _.a. use up a large amount of water b. weaken their economyc. help establish their traditions d. help improve their life74. the underlined word inhabitants probably means _. a. tourists b. passengers c. population d. citizens75. it can be inferred from the text that _. a. the author doesnt like tourism developing so fastb. local people will benefit from tourist attractionc. other parts of a countrys economy wont benefit from tourism much d. we cant build too many support facilitiescthe pickle jar(泡菜坛), as far back as i can remember, sat beside the dresser in my parents bedroom. when he got ready for bed, dad would toss any coins that were in his pockets into the jar, as they dropped, they landed with a merry jingle(叮当声).whenever the jar was full, dad would sit at the kitchen table and roll up the coins before taking them to the bank.every time, as he slid the box of rolled coins across the counter at the bank toward the casher(收银员), he would smile proudly and say: “these are for my sons college fund(基金).”we would always celebrate each deposit(储蓄) by stopping for an ice cream cone. dad would show me the coins in his change and say: “when we get home, well start filling the jar again.” he always let me drop the first coins into the empty jar. “you might have to get to college on loose change,” he said. “but youll get there.”the years passed, and i went to college, married and took a job in another town.once, while visiting my parents, i noticed that the pickle jar was gone. it had served its purpose. my dad was a man of few words, and he never lectured me on the values of determination, perseverance(毅力) of faith. the pickle jar had taught me all of those far better than the most flowery of words could have done.soon, my daughter jessica was born. we spent christmas that year with my parents. after dinner, mom and dad sat next to each other on the sofa, taking turns holding their first grandchild. when jessica began to cry, my wife susan took her from dads arms to put her in her crib(婴儿床) in my parents room. susan came back with tears in her eyes. she led me into my parents room. “look,” she said softly. to my surprise, there, next to the dresser, as if it had never been removed, stood the old pickle jar, the bottom already covered with coins. i walked over to it, dug down into my pocket, and pulled out several coins. choked by emotion, i dropped them into the jar.i looked up and saw that dad had slipped quietly into the room. our eyes locked, and i knew he was feeling the same emotion. neither of us spoke, because we knew that nothing had to be said.76. which of the following statements is true?a. the author felt disappointed when he found that the pickle jar was gone.b. the author and his wife were both grateful for what his parents had done for him and his daughter.c. the authors parents put the pickle jar back in their room to remind themselves of the hard year. d. the author felt embarrassed whenever his father mentioned the pickle jar to him and his wife.77. the storys main lesson is that _.a. any difficulties can be overcome with the support of your familyb. a dream is never far away as long as people keep up with it faithfullyc. parents teach us much more through their actions than through the
