Tourism wasn't as important as it is today.In the past，only people with a good deal of money could travel on holidays to other countries.More people travel today than in the past because there is a growing middle class in many parts of the world；that is to say，people now have more money for travel.Special plane fares for tourists make travel less expensive and more attractive than ever before.One person doesn't travel for the same reason as another.But most people enjoy seeing countries that are different from their own.They also like to meet new people and to taste new food.
   Tourism causes many changes in a country and in people's lives.People build new hotels and restaurants and train native men and women as guides to show visitors around interesting places.There're new nightclubs and other amusements.International tourism is clearly a big business.

  • 1．Seventy years ago，a group of well-known people from the art world headed by an Austrian conductor decided to hold an international festival of music，dance and theatre in Edinburgh.The idea was to reunite Europe after the Second World War.
       It quickly attracted famous names such as Alec Guinness，Richard Burton，Dame Margot Fonteyn and Marlene Dietrich as well as the big symphony orchestras（交響樂團(tuán)）.It became a fixed event every August and now attracts 400，000 people yearly.
       At the same time，the "Fringe" appeared as a challenge to the official festival.Eight theatre groups turned up uninvited in 1947，in the belief that everyone should have the right to perform，and they did so in a public house disused for years.
       Soon，groups of students firstly from Edinburgh University，and later from the universities of Oxford and Cambridge，Durham and Birmingham were making the journey to Edinburgh each summer to perform theatre by little-known writers of plays in small halls to the local people.
       Today the "Fringe"，once less recognised，has far outgrown the festival with around 1，500 performances of theatre，music and dance on every one of the 21 days it lasts.And yet as early as 1959，with only 19 theatre groups performing，some said it was getting too big.
       A paid administrator was first employed only in 1971，and today there are eight administrators working all year round and the number rises to 150 during August itself.In 2004 there were 200 places housing 1，695 shows by over 600 different groups from 50 different countries.More than 1.25 million tickets were sold.

    （1）What was the purpose of Edinburgh Festival at the beginning？

    A．To introduce young theatre groups.
    B．To honour heroes of World WarⅡ.
    C．To attract great artists from Europe.
    D．To bring Europe together again.
    （2）Why did some uninvited theatre groups come to Edinburgh in 1947？

    A．They owned a public house there.
    B．They wanted to take part in the festival.
    C．They thought they were also famous.
    D．They came to take up a challenge.
    （3）Who joined the "Fringe" after it appeared？

    A．Popular writers.
    B．Artists from around the world.
    C．University students.
    D．Performers of music and dance.
    （4）We may learn from the text that Edinburgh Festival
    .
    A．keeps growing rapidly
    B．has gone beyond an art festival

  • 3．The meaning of silence varies among cultural groups．Silences may be thoughtful，or they may be empty when a person has nothing to say．A silence in a conversation may also show stubbornness，or worry．Silence may be viewed by some cultural groups as extremely uncomfortable；therefore attempts may be made to fill every gap（間隙） with conversation．Persons in other cultural groups value silence and view it as necessary for understanding a person's needs．
       Many Native Americans value silence and feel it is a basic part of communicating among people，just as some traditional Chinese and Thai persons do．Therefore，when a person from one of these cultures is speaking and suddenly stops，what maybe implied（暗示） is that the person wants the listener to consider what has been said before continuing．In these cultures，silence is a call for reflection．
       Other cultures may use silence in other ways，particularly when dealing with conflicts among people or in relationships of people with different amounts of power．For example，Russian，F(xiàn)rench，and Spanish persons may use silence to show agreement between parties about the topic under discussion．However，Mexicans may use silence when instructions are given by a person in authority rather than be rude to that person by arguing with him or her．In still another use，persons in Asian cultures may view silence as a sign of respect，particularly to an elder or a person in authority．
       Nurses and other care-givers need to be aware of the possible meanings of silence when they come across the personal anxiety their patients may be experiencing．Nurses should recognize their own personal and cultural construction of silence so that a patient's silence is not interrupted too early or allowed to go on unnecessarily．A nurse who understands the healing（治愈） value of silence can use this understanding to assist in the care of patients from their own and from other cultures．

    （1）What does the author say about silence in conversations？

    A．It implies anger．
    B．It promotes friendship．
    C．It is culture-specific．
    D．It is content-based．
    （2）Which of the following people might regard silence as a call for careful thought？

    A．The Chinese．
    B．The French．
    C．The Mexicans．
    D．The Russians．
    （3）What does the author advise nurses to do about silence？

    A．Let it continue as the patient pleases．
    B．Break it while treating patients．
    C．Evaluate its harm to patients．
    D．Make use of its healing effects．
    （4）What may be the best title for the text？

    A．Sound and Silence
    B．What It Means to Be Silent
    C．Silence to Native Americans
    D．Speech Is Silver；Silence Is Gold
