10.Paragraph EATravel hasexisted sincethe beginningof time,when primitiveman setout,oftentraversing greatdistances insearch ofgame,which providedthe foodand clothingnecessaryfor hissurvival.Throughout thecourse ofhistory,people havetravelled forpurposes of trade,religious conviction,economic gain,war,migration and other equallycompellingmotivations.In theRoman era,wealthy aristocratsand highgovernmentofficials alsotravelled forpleasure.Seaside resortslocated atPompeii andHerculaneumafforded citizensthe opportunity to escapeto theirvacation villasin orderto avoidthesummer heatof Rome.Travel,except during the DarkAges,has continuedto growand,throughout recordedhistory,has playeda vitalrole in the development of civilisationsandtheir economies.B Tourism in the mass form as we know it today is a distinctlytwentieth-centuryphenomenon.Historians suggest that theadvent of mass tourismbegan inEngland duringtheindustrial revolutionwith therise of the middleclass and the availabilityof relativelyinexpensivetransportation.The creationof thecommercial airlineindustry followingtheSecond WorldWar and the subsequentdevelopment of the jetaircraft in the1950ssignalled therapid growthand expansionof internationaltravel.This growthled to thedevelopment of a majornew industry:tourism.In turn,international tourismbecame theconcernof anumber ofworld governmentssince itnot onlyprovided newemploymentopportunities but also produceda meansof earningforeign exchange.C Tourism today has grown significantly in both economic and social importance.In mostindustrialisedcountries over the pastfew yearsthe fastestgrowth has been seenin theareaof services.One of the largestsegments of the serviceindustry,although largelyunrecognisedas anentity in some of these countries,is travel and tourism.According to theWorld Travel and TourismCouncil1992,Travel and tourism is the largestindustry in theworld onvirtually anyeconomic measureincluding value-added capital investment,employment andtax contributions
9.In1992,the industrysgross outputwas estimatedtobe$
3.5trillion,over12per centof allconsumer spending.The travel and tourism industryis the worlds largestemployer with almost130million jobs,or almost7percent of allemployees.This industryis the worlds leadingindustrial contributor,producing over6percent of the worldsgross nationalproduct and accounting forcapital investmentin excessof$422billion indirect,indirect andpersonal taxescadi year.Thus,tourism has aprofound impactboth on the worldeconomy and,because of the educativeeffect of traveland the effects onemployment,on societyitself.D However,the majorproblems of the travel and tourismindustry that have hidden,orobscured,its economic impact arethe diversityand fragmentationof the industry itself.The travelindustry includes:hotels,motels and other typesof accommodation;restaurants and other food services;transportation servicesand facilities;amusements,attractions and other leisure facilities;gift shopsandalarge number of otherenterprises.Since manyof thesebusinesses also serve local residents,the impact of spendingbyvisitors can easily beoverlooked orunderestimated.In addition,Meis1992points outthat the tourismindustry involvesconcepts thathave remainedamorphous toboth analystsand decision makers.Moreover,in allnations thisproblem hasmade itdifficult for theindustry to develop anytype ofreliable orcredible tourisminformation basein ordertoestimate the contribution itmakes toregional,national and global economics.However,the nature of thisvery diversitymakes travel and tourism ideal vehicles for economicdevelopmentin awide varietyof countries,regions orcommunities.E Once the exclusive province of the wealthy,travel and tourism havebecome aninstitutionalisedway of life formost of the population.In fact,McIntosh andGoeldner1990suggest thattourism hasbecome the largest commodityin internationaltrade formanynations and,for asignificant number of other countries,it rankssecond orthird.Forexample,tourism is the majorsource ofincome inBermuda,Greece,Italy,Spain,Switzerland andmost Caribbeancountries.In addition,Hawkins andRitchie,quoting fromdatapublished by the AmericanExpress Company,suggest that the traveland tourismindustryis thenumber oneranked employerin theBahamas,Brazil,Canada,France,theformer WestGermany,Hong Kong,Italy,Jamaica,Japan,Singapore,the UnitedKingdomand the United States.However,because ofproblems ofdefinition,whichdirectly affectstatistical measurement,it isnot possiblewith anydegree ofcertainty toprovide precise,valid orreliable dataabout theextent ofworld-wide tourismparticipationor its economic impact.In manycases,similar difficultiesarise whenattempts aremade tomeasuredomestic tourism.基础篇第一章雅思的词作业要求利用三大黄金定位词组合定位

3.How manystars arethe worlds most powerful radio telescopessearchingA Theprimary reasonforthesearch isbasic curiosity-thesamecuriosity about the naturalworldthat drivesall purescience.We wantto knowwhether weare alonein theUniverse.We wantto knowwhether lifeevolves naturallyif giventhe rightconditions,or whetherthereis somethingvery specialabout theEarth tohave fosteredthe varietyoflife forms thatwesee aroundus onthe planet.The simpledetection ofa radiosignal willbe sufficienttoanswer thismost basicof allquestions.In thissense,SETI isanother cogin themachineryof purescience whichis continuallypushing outthe horizonof ourknowledge.However,there areother reasonsfor beinginterested inwhether lifeexists elsewhere.For example,we havehad civilisationon Earthfor perhapsonly afew thousandyears,and thethreats ofnuclear war andpollution over the lastfew decadeshave toldus thatour survivalmay betenuous.Will welast anothertwo thousandyears orwill wewipe ourselvesout Since thelifetime ofa planetlike oursis several billion years,we canexpect that,if other civilisationsdo survivein ourgalaxy,their ageswill rangefrom zeroto severalbillion years.Thus anyothercivilisation that we hear from is likely to be far older,on average,than ourselves.Themere existence of such a civilisation will tell us that long-term survivalis possible,andgives us some cause for optimism.It iseven possiblethat theolder civilisationmay pass onthe benefitsof theirexperience indealing withthreats tosurvival suchas nuclearwar andglobalpollution,andotherthreats thatwe haventyet discovered.D Analien civilisationcould choosemany differentways ofsending informationacross thegalaxy,but manyof theseeither requiretoo muchenergy,or elseare severelyattenuatedwhile traversingthe vastdistances acrossthe galaxy.It turnsout that,for agiven amountoftransmitted power,radio wavesin thefrequency range1000to3000MHz travelthegreatest distance,andsoall searchesto datehave concentratedon lookingfor radio wavesin thisfrequency range.So farthere havebeen anumberofsearches byvarious groupsaroundthe world,including Australiansearches using theradio telescope atParkes,NewSouth Wales.Until now there havenot been any detectionsfromthefew hundredstarswhich havebeen searched.The scaleofthesearches hasbeen increaseddramatically since1992,when theUS Congressvoted NASA$10million peryear forten yearsto conductathorough searchfor extraterrestriallife.Much ofthe moneyin thisproject isbeing spent ondeveloping thespecial hardwareneeded tosearch manyfrequencies atonce.The projecthas two parts.One partisatargeted searchusing the worlds largestradio telescopes,theAmerican-operated telescopein Arecibo,Puerto Ricoand theFrench telescopein Nancy inFrance.This part oftheproject issearching thenearest1000likely starswith highsensitivityfor signalsin thefrequency range1000to3000MHz.The otherpartoftheproject isan undirectedsearch whichis monitoringall ofspace witha lowersensitivity,using thesmaller antennasof NASA*s DeepSpace Network.解析

3.How manystars aretheworldsmostpowerfulradio telescopessearchingA Theprimary reasonforthesearch isbasic curiosity-thesamecuriosity aboutthe naturalworldthat drivesall purescience.We wantto knowwhether weare aloneintheUniverse.We wantto knowwhether lifeevolves naturallyif giventherightconditions,or whetherthereis somethingvery specialabouttheEarth tohave fosteredthe varietyoflifeformsthat wesee aroundus onthe planet.The simpledetection ofa radiosignal willbe sufficienttoanswer thismost basicofallquestions.In thissense,SETI isanother cogin themachineryofpurescience whichis continuallypushing outthe horizonof ourknowledge.However,there areother reasonsfor beinginterested inwhether lifeexists elsewhere.Forexample,we havehad civilisationon Earthfor perhapsonly afew thousandyears,and thethreatsof nuclearwar andpollution overthe lastfew decadeshave toldus thatour survivalmaybe tenuous.Will welast anothertwo thousandyears orwill wewipe ourselvesoutSince thelifetime ofa planetlike oursis severalbillionyears,we canexpect that,if othercivilisationsdo survivein ourgalaxy,their ageswill rangefrom zeroto severalbillionyears.Thus anyothercivilisationthatwehearfromislikelytobefarolder,on average,than ourselves.The mereexistenceofsuchacivilisationwilltellusthatlong-term survivalispossible,and givesussomecauseforoptimism.It iseven possiblethattheoldercivilisation maypassonthe benefitsof theirexperience indealing withthreats tosurvivalsuch asnuclearwarandglobalpollution,andotherthreats thatwe haventyet discovered.D Analien civilisationcould choosemany differentways ofsending informationacrossthe galaxy,but manyoftheseeither requiretoo muchenergy,or elseare severelyattenuatedwhile traversingthe vastdistances acrossthe galaxy.It turnsoutthat,foragivenamount oftransmitted power,radiowavesinthefrequency range1000to3000MHz travelthegreatest distance,andsoall searchesto datehave concentratedon lookingfor radiowavesin thisfrequency range.So farthere havebeenanumberofsearches byvariousgroups aroundtheworld,including Australiansearches using theradiotelescope atParkes,New SouthWales.Until nowthere havenot beenany detectionsfromthefew hundredstarswhich havebeen searched.The scaleofthesearches hasbeen increaseddramaticallysince1992,when theUS Congressvoted NASA$10million peryear forten yearstoconduct athorough searchfor extraterrestriallife.Much ofthe moneyin thisproject isbeingspentondeveloping thespecial hardwareneeded tosearch manyfrequencies atonce.The projecthas twoparts.One partisatargeted searchusingtheworlds largestradiotelescopes,theAmerican-operated telescopein Arecibo,Puerto RicoandtheFrenchtelescope inNancyinFrance.This partoftheproject issearching thenearest1000likelystars withhighsensitivityfor signalsinthefrequency range1000to3000MHz.The otherpartoftheproject isan undirectedsearch whichis monitoringall ofspace witha lowersensitivity,usingthesmaller antennasof NASA*s DeepSpace Network.Cll T3Pl TheStory ofthe Silk
