  Ecotourism:A Different Way to Travel

  Are you attracted to obscure places?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 tourism industry at large.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 sits in the middle of the Achuar people’s reserve and is only accessible 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 2011.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.

  语篇解读 本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。本文主要介绍了一种新理念的旅游方式——生态旅游。

  B.those who like to go to their travelling places by hiking

  C.those who prefer an undamaged natural world and remain what it used to be

  D.those who prefer unique natural environment of cultural relics

  Leadership is the most significant word in today’s competitive business environment because it directs the manager of a business to focus inward on their personal abilities and style. Experts on leadership will quickly point out that “how things get done” influences the success of the outcomes and indicates a right way and a wrong way to do things. When a noted leader on the art of management, Peter Drucker, coined the phrase“Management is doing things right; leadership is doing the right things”, he was seeking to clarify the distinctions he associates with the terms. When Stephen Covey, founder and director of the Leadership Institute, explored leadership styles in the past decade, he focused on the habits of a great number of highly effective individuals. His Seven Habits of Highly Effective People became a popular bestseller very quickly. His ideas forced a reexamination of the early leadership example, which centered on the feature that was found in the character ethic(道德准则) and the personality ethic. The former ethic suggested success was founded on modesty, loyalty, courage, patience and so on. The personality ethic suggested it was one’s attitude, not behavior, that inspired success, and this ethic was founded on a belief of positive mental attitude. In contrast to each of these ideas, Covey advocates that leaders need to understand universal principles of effectiveness, and he highlights how vital it is for leaders to first personally manage themselves if they are to enjoy any hope of outstanding success in their work environments. To achieve a desired vision for your business, it is essential that you have a personal vision of where you are headed and what you value. Business leadership means that managers need to “put first things first,” which implies that before leading others, you need to be clear on your own values, abilities, and strengths and be seen as trustworthy.

  1. What does Peter Drucker’s phrase infer?

  A. Leaders should be good at making right decisions.

  B. Leaders should be good at doing things right.

  C. Leaders should be good at ignoring the distinctions he associates with the terms.

  D. Leaders should be skilled in predicting future.

  2. Under what condition are people likely to succeed, in terms of what the personality ethic suggests ?

  A. When people have little determination , they will be successful.

  B. When people have good behaviour, they will gain success.

  C. If people have positive mental attitude , they are likely to succeed.

  D. If people have negative mental attitude , they are certain to succeed.

  3. How can leaders enjoy outstanding success in their work environments, according to Stephen Covey?

  A. Firstly they have to think highly of themselves.

  B. They are supposed to benefit themselves.

  C. They can not adjust themselves.

  D. First personally they must manage themselves .

  4. What is the meaning of the underlined word “vision”?

  A. Bright future. B. Good beginning. C. Good scenery. D. Pretty background.

  5. To be good leaders , what must managers pay close attention to ?

  A. They must pay close attention to universal principles of effectiveness.

  B. They must pay close attention to their own values, abilities and strengths.

  C. They must pay close attention to modesty.

  D. They must be concerned about courage and patience.

  March 22, 20II---Most restaurants in the United States offer their customers a glass of tap water at no charge with their meal, but this week many restaurants are asking dinners to pay a dollar, or more, for a glass of water. Cards on their tables explain that this small amount helps bring clean water to children around the world. It’s called the UNICEF Tap Project.

  “UNICEF’s Tap Project is really all about bringing attention to the fact that over 900 million people around the globe do not have access to good, clean, healthy drinking water,” says Cary Stem, who heads the US Fund for UNICEF. She adds that water-borne illness is the second-highest cause of preventable childhood death in the world.

  “Each and every day approximately 4,100 children die just because they don’t have that access - 4,100 every single day.”

  The public service campaign encourages people to help change that statistic with a simple, affordable action: paying a dollar to get a glass of tap water at a restaurant.

  “One dollar buys enough good, clean water for a child for 40 days,” Stem says.

  “The tap project has expanded since it began five years ago with 300 restaurants in New York City. This year, Stem says, about 3,000 restaurants across the country are participating in the campaign. We raised about $2.5 million over the last five years of this campaign,” says Stem. “Last year, we raised over $1 million for the first time. This year we’re hoping to top that.”

  Stem credits the continued success of the campaign to an army of volunteers who support the tap project and raise money in their communities.

  The UNICEF Tap Project is promoting its efforts with a simple motto: when you take water, give water. Currently, UNICEF works in more than 100 countries around the world to improve access to safe water and sanitation facilities in schools and communities.

  Stem hopes that, by participating in the project, more Americans will realize that what they often take for granted is a precious and scarce resource in many other parts of the world.

  72. Restaurants began to charge for tap water to _______.

  A. increase their profit

  B. urge customers to save water

  C. raise people’s awareness of the world water problem

  D. collect money for those without access to safe water

  73. We can learn from the text that the Tap Project ________.

  A. began in New York City

  B. was started by volunteers

  C. is hoping to collect $2.5 million this year

  D. provides help for 1,000 countries in the world

  74. It can be learned that _______.

  A. the Tap Project began in 2006

  B. America suffers a serious problem

  C. 4,100 children die of water pollution every year

  D. water-borne illnesses are the biggest killer of children

  75. How does Cary Stem feel about the work of the Tap Project?

  A. Concerned

  B. Hopeful

  C. Disappointed

  D. Angry

  【2017高考英语福建省联考试卷】

  A month went by in this manner , but a month was all I could bear .

  The memory of Marguerite accompanied me wherever I went . I had loved that woman --- still loved her --- too much for her suddenly to mean nothing to me . Whatever feelings I might have for her now , I had to see her again . At once .

  …

  I knew Marguerite . Meeting me so unexpectedly must have thrown her into a state of great confusion . Probably , she had heard of my departure which had set her mind at rest as to the consequences of our sudden parting . But , seeing me back and coming face to face with me , pale as I was , she had sensed that my return had a purpose , and must have wondered what was going to happen .

  If , when I saw her again , Marguerite had been unhappy ; if , in taking my revenge (复仇), there had also been some way of helping her , then I might well have forgiven her , and would certainly never have dreamed of doing her any harm . But when I saw her again , she was happy , at least on the surface . Another man had ensured her the luxury (奢侈)in which I had been unable to keep her . She brought shame both to my pride and my love ; she was going to have to pay for what I had suffered .

  I could not remain indifferent (冷漠)to what she did now . It followed that the thing that would hurt her most would be exactly for me to show indifference . Indifference , therefore , was the feeling which I now needed to pretend , not only in her presence but in the eyes of others .

  I tried to put a smile on my face , and I went to call on Prudence with whom Marguerite was staying .

  …

  Prudence saw me to the door , and I returned to my apartment with tears of anger in my eyes and thirst for revenge in my heart and thought only of finding a way to make the poor creature suffer .

  64. This passage is most probably _______________ of a love story .

  A. the beginning

  B. the introduction

  C. a summary

  D. a chapter

  65. According to the passage , the hero(男主角)wanted to _____________ .

  A. forgive Marguerite because he found her unhappy

  B. stop the relationship with Marguerite because he couldn’t keep her in the luxury

  C. make up the relationship with Marguerite because he still loved her

  D. give Marguerite sufferings because his pride and his love were hurt

  66. What kind of feelings did the hero most probably have ?

  A. Indifference and love .

  B. Indifference and hate .

  C. Love and hate .

  D. Hate and sadness .

  67. What would the author most probably write about next ?

  【2017高考英语福建省联考试卷】D

  I feel it enormous responsibility, as a mother of two little girls, to lead you down a path that is relatively healthy when it comes to beauty and self-image.

  In a lot of women’s eyes I’ve probably already failed in that respect due to the amount of pink princess Barbie (芭比娃娃) mess cluttering up (堆满) Vera’s room. But I will say something about Barbie: I played with that stuff for a solid decade when I was growing up and here I am now at a healthy weight with a healthy outlook on my body and image. I have a successful career. If Barbie was really so damaging to my femininity (女性气质) and self-image I highly doubt I could list all of the accomplishments.

  But I get it too. It’s hard for women to maintain a healthy self-image. I have girlfriends around whom I have to brace myself to see, because just being around them makes me self-conscious. I look at old pictures of my mother and wonder why I’ve never been able to be as skinny as she was. And then I have friends who are thinner than their mothers ever were. We women go round and round in circles, holding hands and trying to be one another sometimes. Men like to think we dress and style ourselves for them, but why would we when they hardly notice? I’ve never tried so hard to look good when I know I’m about to meet up with a stylish girlfriend. It’s she who will notice my slimmed-down waist or the thinnest, little bracelet on my arm.

  And I have no doubt that the two of you, Veronica and Juliette, will endlessly compare yourselves to each other. You will wonder why one of you got longer legs or shinier hair. The thing I’ll tell you is this: not even the prettiest of us feel settled. The girl you think looks the most perfect in the world is probably the girl who wants to change herself more than anyone else.

  Don’t take these on. You are not worthless. You are so full of love and light and you should let it shine through your every second. If someone pushes you down for standing tall then just push yourself back up and stand even taller. And know that the reason they push you down in the first place is just because they’re scared.

  68. From the second paragraph, we can infer that the author _____.

  A. regrets buying so much Barbie stuff for her daughters

  B. thinks loving Barbie makes her not confident about her self-image

  C. owes her beauty and success to playing with Barbie

  D. thinks playing with Barbie caused no damage to her beauty and success

  69. In the third paragraph, the author intends to show that _____.

  A. women tend to be proud of their beautiful friends

  B. she cares much about her appearance

  C. she feels proud of her mother’s beauty

  D. women tend to admire others and compare with each other

  70. Which of the following is true according to the passage?

  A. The author is disappointed that few men take notice of her slim figure.

  B. The author cares more about looking good before her girlfriends.

  C. Girls should constantly compare themselves with others to improve their beauty.

  D. Only the prettiest girl can feel confident about her beauty.

  71. The author advises her daughters that _____.

  A. they should be cautious not to be pushed down by others

  B. they should care much about their strong points instead of appearances

  C. they should try to grow taller than others

  D. they should care more about others’ opinions
