【题目】 People travel for a lot of reasons. Some tourists go to see battlefields(战场) or other Historic remains (历史遗址). Others are looking for culture, or simply want to have their pictures taken in front of famous places. Most European tourists are looking for a sunny beach to lie on.

Northern Europeans are willing to pay a lot of money for the sun because they have so little of it. People of cities like London, Copenhagen (哥本哈根) and Amsterdam (阿姆斯特丹) spend much of their winter in the dark because the days are so short, and much of the rest of the year in the rain. This is the reason why the Mediterranean(地中海) has always attracted(吸引) them. Every summer many people travel to Mediterranean resorts (度假胜地) and beaches for their vacations. They all come for the same reason: sun!

The huge crowds mean lots of money for the economics (经济) of Mediterranean countries. Italy's 30,000 hotels are booked without a break every summer. And 13 million people camp out on French beaches, parks, and roadsides. Spain's long sandy coastline attracts more people than anywhere else, 37 million tourists there yearly, or one tourist for each person living in Spain.

But there are signs that the area is getting more tourists than it can deal with. The Mediterranean is already one of the most polluted seas on earth. None of these, however, is ruining (毁灭) anyone's fun. Obviously (显然地)they don' go there for clean water. They allow traffic jams and seem to like crowded beaches. They don't even mind the pollution No matter how dirty the water is, the coastline sill less beautiful. And as long as the sun shines, it's still better than sitting in the cold rain in Berlin, London, or Oslo (奥斯陆).

1The writer seems to imply (暗示) that Europeans travel mostly for the reason that_______.

A.they want to see historic remains

B.they wish to escape from cold, dark and rainy days

C.they would like to take pictures in front of famous places

D.they are interested in different cultural and social customs

2According to the passage, which of the following countries attracts more tourists than the others?

A.Italy.B.Greece.C.France.D.Spain.

3The underlined part in the last sentence in Paragraph 3 “one tourist for each person living in Spain” means____________.

A.all the 37 million people living in Spain are tourists

B.every person living in Spain has to take care of a tourist

C.every year almost as many tourists visit Spain as there are people living in that country

D.every family in Spain is visited by a tourist every year

4According to the passage, which of the following might ruin (毁坏) the tourists’ fun at Mediterranean resorts and beaches?

A.Polluted water.B.Crowded buses.C.Rainy weather.D.Traffic jams.
