Before Korean students take university entrance tests, their friends give them sticky rice candy for luck. The friends hope that the students will pass the test and "stick to" the university. The following short conversations will tell you about different customs in China, Argentina, Switzerland, Italy and Japan.Number 1: ChinaWoman: Did I tell you I'm going to China?Man: China? Great.Woman: Yes. I'm going to Shanghai on business. I have to buy some gifts.Man: Good idea. What are you going to take?Woman: I was thinking of bringing some handkerchiefs. They're colorful, beautiful? also lightweight. I don't want to carry anything heavy.Man: Ah, I don't think you should give handkerchiefs. They aren't a good gift in Chinese culture.Woman: Why not?Man: A handkerchief is a symbol of saying goodbye.Woman: Saying goodbye?Man: Yeah, like when you're going away ... and people are crying, so they need a handkerchief. Actually, I've heard that one of the best things to give is a dinner -- not a present, but a big dinner. It's good for business.Number 2: ArgentinaWoman: This is interesting. Did you know that in Argentina you should never give clothing unless you know the person really well?Man: Don't give clothing? Why not?Woman: Clothing -- even things like ties -- are too personal. Only good friends give them. Man: Huh? I never thought of a tie as being personal ... just uncomfortable. What should you bring?Woman: I don't know. Maybe something for the house.Number 3: SwitzerlandMan: We're meeting Mr. Mertz and his wife for dinner. Maybe I should take flowers or something ... Yeah, I'll pick up some red roses.Woman: You'd better not give them roses. In Switzerland, they could be a symbol of love and romance.Man: Oh, I didn't know that.Woman: I think candy or chocolate might be better.Number 4: ItalyWoman: I'd like some flowers. Uh ... those. About ten, I guess.Man: Ma'am, I don't think you should give ten flowers. In Italy, even numbers -- 2, 4, 6, andso on -- are bad luck.Woman: Even numbers are bad luck? OK, I'll take nine flowers then.Number 5: JapanWoman: May I help you?Man: I'm going to stay with a family in Japan. I need to get something for them.Woman: Pen sets are always a good gift.Man: Oh, that's a good idea. Let's see ... There are sets with a pen and pencil ... and bigger sets with four pens.Woman: You said you're going to Japan?Man: Yeah.Woman: Don't give a set of four pens -- in fact, don't give four of anything.Man: Why not?Woman: The Japanese word for "four" sounds like the word for "death." It's bad luck.Man: Thanks for telling me. I'll take the pen and pencil set.Woman: Good choice. These sets make very good gifts. After all, pens write in any language! Man: Uh ... yeah.

They can be either a paragraph or sentences. Supply the missing parts so that the whole essay forms a unified whole. Please write them on the answer sheetThumbing a Lift[the missing part]To fulfill the first requirement you must have some mark to distinguish you at once from all other hikers. A soldier, for instance, should wear his uniform. In a foreign country an unmistakable indication of your own nationality will also arrest a driver’s attention.When l hitchhiked 9500 miles across the United States and back recently I wore a well-tailored suit, a bowler hat and a trench coat, and carried a pencil-thin rolled black umbrella. My suitcase was decorated with British flags. Having plenty of luggage, moreover, I was not likely to be suspected of being a dangerous lunatic. I then had to get across to the driver the idea that I was a real traveller, and needed to get somewhere cheaply.But even with careful preparation, you must not assume that the task will be easy. You should be prepared to wait a little, for there are drivers who confess to a fierce prejudice against, not to say hatred of, hitch-hikers, and would no more pick up a hiker than march from London to Manchester. In America, my average wait was half an hour, and my longest two hours, but I have heard of people waiting all day; they presumably took less pains to make themselves conspicuous.[the missing part] On one occasion I found myself driving with two boys of about nineteen who turned out to be on the run from the police, and were hoping to use me as an alibi: There are also lesser risks: you may find yourself in the car of a religious fanatic, or just a bad driver. You cannot tell, of course, until you are in the car. But you soon learn .the art of the quick excuse that gets you out again.If the hitchhiker in the US will remember that he is seeking the kindness of drivers to giveWest. It will also help if he can drive – I think that I drove myself about 4500 of those 9500 miles I hitchhiked in the States.There are FOUR passages with a total of 20 multiple-choice questions. Read the passages carefully and then choose the ONE correct answer. Please write your answers on your answer sheet.Text A1. With what subject is the passage mainly concerned?(A) Women and the church in the nineteenth century.(B) The relationship between poverty and politics.(C) A historical perspective of politics.(D) Activities and interests of 19%century women.(A) Impoverished people requested their help.(B) They wanted to be more than homemakers.(C) They were not interested in reading.(D) Their ministers sought their assistance.3. According to the passage, most women in the nineteenth century, were thought to be(A) poor and sickly.(B) angry and rebellious.(C) religious and humanitarian.(D) timid and helpless.4. Which of the following can be inferred about the women described in the passage?(A) They〞were poor and needed work to help support their families.(B) They were middle-class and were looking for money to pay for luxuries.5. The passage mentions all of the following as good deeds performed by women EXCEPT(A) travelling abroad as ambassadors for their country.(C) making ministers’ offices more attractive.(D) helping women whose husbands died.Text BAt birth, the infant has only the most elementary emotional life. Newborns show an expression of disgust, for example, in response to strong tastes, and show surprise in reaction to sudden change. They also show interest, which developmental psychologists consider an emotion in its own right.By ten months, infants display the full range of what are considered the basic emotions: joy, anger, sadness, disgust, surprise, and fear. The emergence of the basic emotions during the first year or two of life seems to be programmed by a biological clock for brain development. As the appropriate brain maturation occurs, the various emotions appear in an infant’s repertory. For example, studies of brain activity in ten-month-olds show that the right frontal regions are moreactive during positive emotions, and the left during negative emotions.6. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?(A) Measuring Infant Intelligence and Brain Development.(B) Brain Maturation and Emotional Growth in Infants.(C) Stimulating the Development in Infant Emotions.(D) Positive and Negative Emotions in Infants.7. The phrase “in its own right〞is closest in meaning to which of the following?(A) Legally.(B) In fact.(C) In itself.(D) On the other hand.8. In the second paragraph, the author uses the analogy of a clock to emphasize which of the following generalizations about infants’ emotional behaviour?(A) It emerges rapidly.(C) It develops with predictable regularity.(D) It may change from one minute to the next.9. Which of the following statements about ten-month-old infants is best supported by the passage?(A) Their various emotional responses are difficult to discriminate.(B) Their emotional range is wider than that of newborns.(C) Their behaviour is affected only by positive emotions.(D) Their brain activity is greater when they are happy.10. The ideas in the passage are divided into two paragraphs in order to contrast(A) emotional development at two stages of infancy.(B) two areas of the brain involved in emotional development.(C) the development of two emotions in infants.(D) two methods of measuring emotional development.Text CNaples: the butter-side-down of Italian cities, where even the truth has a strangely fictitious tinge. One day a car rear-ended one of the city’s minibuses. The bus driver got out to investigate. While he stood there talking, his only passenger took the wheel and drove off. Neither passenger nor bus was ever seen again.Then there was that busy lunch hour in the central post office when a crack in the ceiling opened and postal workers were overwhelmed by an avalanche of stale croissants. As the cleaners hauled away garbage bags of moldy breakfast rolls, the questions remained: Who’? Why? And what else could still be up there?But Naples actually isn’t so funny. Italy’s third largest city,, with 1.1 million people, has a much darker side, where chaos reigns: bag snatching and mugging, clogged streets of stupefying confusion, where traffic moves to mysterious laws of its own through multiple intersections whose traffic lights haven’t functioned for months, ma ybe years - if they have lights at all. Packs of wild dogs roam the city’s main park. Nineteen policemen on the anti-narcotics squad are arrested for accepting payoffs from the Camorra, the local Mafia.To many Italians, particularly those in the wealthy, industrialized north, none of this is surprising. To them Naples means political corruption, wasted federal subsidies, rampant organized crime, appallingly large families, and cunning, lazy people who prefer to do something shady rather than honest work..This is a city in which living on the brink of collapse is normal. Naples has survived wars, revolutions, floods, earthquakes, and eruptions of nearby Vesuvius. First a wealthy colony founded by the Greeks (who called it Neapolis, or “new city〞), then a flourishing Roman resort it lived through various incarnations under dynasties of Normans, Swabians Austrians, Spanish, and French, not to mention a glorious period as the resplendent capital of the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies.11. The two examples in the second and third paragraphs intend to show that(A) Naples has a high incidence of traffic accidents.(B) anything extraordinary can happen in Naples.(C) people there love to store food for years,(D) everything appears to be on the wrong side.12. The following words are appropriate to describe traffic conditions in Naples EXCEPT(A) disorder.(B) overcrowding.(C) insecurity.(D) inefficiency.13. It can be concluded from the passage that the Northerners(A) are critical of what Naples represents.(B) sympathize with Neopnlitans.(C) share many things with Neopolitans.(D) make every effort to shun Neopolitans.14. The author implies that Neopolitans’ affection for the city(A) was unrealistic.(B) went a bit too far.(C) was extraordinary.(D) gave rise to concern.15. When the author says “‘Today that remark carries less poetic connotations,〞he actually- means that(A) the city can now boast very few poets.(B) artists and writers have left for London and Paris.(C) the city underwent heavy, bombing during the War.(D) The city’s present problems obscured its glorious past.Text DLaymen suspect that because colds are self-limiting, short, non-fatal infections, doctors do not take them very seriously. Nobody will think this after reading Sir Christopher Andrewes’sbook.Growing cold viruses in the laboratory also proved difficult until one of the men involved demonstrated his possession of that most precious scientific faculty-serendipity.Cold viruses were being grown with only moderate success in laboratory cultures of lung tissue from human embryos. The lung tissue cultures were kept alive by a salt solution containing added vitamins and a number of other ingredients. one day at Salisbury Dr. David Tyrrell found that this salt solution was faulty, and in order to keep his tissue cultures going he hastily borrowed a supply from another laboratory. When the imported solution was added to tissue cultures infected with cold viruses the lung tissue cells began to degenerate in a manner typical of tissues parasitized by active viral particles.Dr. Tyrrell soon discovered that the borrowed fluid provided a more acid medium in his culture tubes than that produced by the native Salisbury brew. The nose provides a slightly acid environment, and Dr. Tyreell realized that a degree of acidity was just what nose-inhabiting viruses needed in order to thrive outside the body. Thus a happy accident enabled a perspicacious scientist to modify the cold virus culture technique and thence forward the whole exercise proved far easier and more profitable.(C) is really fifty to one hundred different diseases.(D) is not likely to attack many types of animal.l7. The prevention of all colds is(A) Improbable.(B) very difficult.(C) Impossible.(D) Imminent.18. One can deduce from the passage that colds are(A) not given enough attention by doctors.(B) more frequent in America than in England.(C) due to bacteria.(D) likely to attack only very. few types of animals.19. The passage stresses that Dr. Tyrrell discovered how to(A) prevent colds in most circumstances.(B) create colds artificially more effectively.(C) prove that draughts and wet feet do not prevent colds.(D) show that colds are not very infectious.20. The passage assumes that colds present exactly the same problem in(A) Germany, America and Britain.(B) hot and temperate climates.(C) winter and summer.(D) children and adults.V. Writing (20%)“History is little more tha n a register of the crimes, follies and misfortunes of mankind〞.1. England occupies the southern portion of_______.A. Great BritainB.

Writing (20%)History is little more than a register of the crimes, follies and misfortunes of mankind Personally, I am quite enthusiastic about history. And I’m fascinated to what had happened in the past. And if I am asked to give a definition of history, my version might be different from the one above.From the aspect of etymology, we can see that “history〞mainly talks about men’s story. With no prejudice against women, I have to admit that the recorded history is mainly about men. What kind of behavior is usually connected with men? We can easily make a list of it, and the content within it is mainly about violence, war, blood, etc. If we check the criminal records, modern or ancient, we will find that almost all criminals are men. From this aspect, we can say men’s stories are not that brilliant.History does contain a lot of unfavorable things. But we couldn’t neglect what is really amazing, such as grand architectures, talented discoveries and inventions, glorious literature, etc. Since we were kids, we have been told stories of little mermaid, the great deeds of the discovery of new continent (even if the incentive of the discovery is not glorious at all), and Four Great Inventions. From those ancient people, famous or anonymous, we learned a lot.VI1-6 C B C D B BVII. Answer the question. (4%)。

上外版英语高级听力练习(上册)听力原文第一篇"Good morning, everyone. Today I'd like to talk about the impact of technology on society.However, there are also negative consequences to consider. The overuse of technology can lead to social isolation and a decrease in face-to-face interactions. People are spending more time behind screens and less time interacting with others in person. This can have a detrimental effect on mental health and overall social well-being.In conclusion, while technology has brought about immense benefits, we must also be aware of its drawbacks. It is essential to strike a balance between utilizing technology to enhance our lives and preserving human connection and privacy. As the future continues to unfold, it is important for society to address these challenges and make informed decisions about the role of technology in our lives."第二篇"Hello everyone! Today, I want to discuss the importance of lifelong learning.In conclusion, lifelong learning is not a one-time event but a lifelong journey. It is a mindset that embraces growth and adaptation. By actively seeking knowledge and remaining curious, we can thrive in an ever-changing world. So let's embrace the power of lifelong learning and unlock our full potential!"。

What is the main purpose of the writer?The writer’s main purpose is to emp hasize that she is immensely grateful to Charles Dickens, for she has been enlightened a great deal by him, and that Dickens’ novels, which deal with real life and real people and explore significant and permanent topics, constitute a rewarding让读者获益匪浅的heritage of mankind, and therefore are well worth reading and studying.II. Structural analysis1. How is the first paragraph associated with the last one?In the first paragraph the writer makes it clear that she has owed Charles Dickens a heavy debt by reading his novels.

I have long looked for an opportunity to pay a certain debt which I have owed （我所欠的某种债务、情意）since I was seven years old. Debts are usually burdens负担, butthis is no ordinary debt, and it is no burden, except as the feeling of warm gratitude may ache in one until it is expressed(不表达出来就让人揪心). My debt is to an Englishman我的债是欠一位英国人的, who long ago in China rendered an inestimable （invaluable）service给予无法估量的教益、服务to a small American child（一个在中国的美国小孩）. That child was myself and that Englishman was Charles Dickens. I know no better way to meet my obligation(oblige / obliged)表达我的感恩than to write down what Charles Dickens did in China for an American child查尔斯-狄更斯对我这个在中国的美国小孩的影响.2. First, you must picture to yourself你得自己想象一下that child, living quite solitary (alone / social) in a remote Chinese countryside, in a small mission bungalow教区的一座小平房perched位于upon a hill among the rice fields in the valleys below 周围山谷是成片的稻田. In the near distance近处蜿蜒流淌着wound that deep, treacherous（treachery / unreliable）, golden river水深的、变幻莫测的金色水道, the Y angtse, and some of the most terrifying and sinister最可怕凶险的、同时也最开心兴奋的, as well as the most delightful and exciting moments of that child’s lif e 孩提时光, were spent beside the river. She loved to crawl along its banks upon the rocks or upon the muddy flats沿着它岸边的岩石和泥地跋涉and watch for the lifting of the huge four-square nets that hung into the moving yellow flood撒在浊黄的滚滚洪流中的巨大的四方渔网, and see out of that flood come perhaps again and again一次又一次从洪流拉出的也许是an empty net, but sometimes great flashing, twisting silver bodies of fish一大包闪亮的扭摆的鱼体. She lingered(逗留/ stay) beside villages of boat folk在船工小村旁逗留, and saw them live, the babies tied to a rope and splashing in the shallower waters小娃仔用绳子拴着，在浅水中拍水. But she saw babies dead thrown into the deep waters看着婴儿死了，被扔进深水中. She wandered small and alien（alienate / alienation / native）显得细小而怪异among the farm folk in the earthen houses among the fields在住着田野中土屋的农民百姓之间. She accepted a bowl of rice and cabbage领受一碗米饭和白菜often at meal time and sat among the peasants on the threshing floor about the door在门口的打谷场上and ate, usually in silence, listening and listening, answering their kindly, careless随意的questions, bearing(tolerating) with shy, painful smiles用羞涩的痛苦的微笑忍受their kind teasing laughter取笑at her yellow curls and unfortunate blue eyes不幸长成蓝色的眼睛, which they thought so ugly. She was, sheknew, very alien怪异. Upon the streets of the great city where sometimes she went she learned to accept the cry of foreign devil忍受人们对她大叫洋妖、洋鬼子, and to realize she was a foreign devil洋妖.3. She grew from a very tiny child into a bigger child, still knowing she was alien 外国人. However kindly the people about her might be, and they were much more often kind than not, she knew that she was foreign to them. And she wondered想知道very much about her own folk她自己的乡亲and where they were and how they looked and at what they played. But she did not know. In the bungalow were her parents, very busy, very, very busy, and when she learned her lessons in the morning quickly, they were too busy to(so…that…) pay much heed（heedful / heedless）留意to her and so she wandered about a great deal溜达很久, seeing and learning all sorts of things. She had fun. But very often she used to wonder纳闷, ―W here are the other children like me? What is it like in the country where they live?‖ She longed渴望very much, I can remember, to have some of them to play with. But she never had them.4. To this small, isolated（isolation）creature there came one day an extraordinary accident. She was an impossibly voracious(voracity / greedy) reader贪心得无法想象的读者. She would like to have had children’s books, but there were none, and so she read everything, —Plutarch’s普卢塔克写的Lives and Foxe’s福克斯的Martyrs《殉教者》, the Bible, church history, and the hot spots in Jonathan Edwards’s乔纳森-爱德华兹的sermons 布道文, and conversations out of Shakespeare从莎士比亚作品节选的对话, and bits of Tennyson and Browning丁尼生和布朗宁的诗歌片段which she could not understand at all. Then one day she looked doubtfully at a long row of somber(somberness / dark, serious) blue books暗蓝色的书本on a very high shelf. They were quite beyond her reach. Later she discovered this was becausethey were novels. But being desperate(desperation)极端急切she put a three-cornered bamboo stool一张三角竹凳on top of a small table and climbed up and stared at the bindings封皮and in faded black titles she read她读着褪色的黑色标题Oliver Twist, by Charles Dickens. She was then a little past过了一点的seven years old. It was a very hot August day, in the afternoon about three o’clock, when the household一家人was asleep, all except the indefatigable不知疲倦的parents, and they were very, very busy. She took Oliver Twist out of its place — it was fat and thick宽大厚实, for Hard Times was bound with it跟它订在一起—and in great peril（perilous / danger）descended（ascend）冒着巨大的危险下来, and stopping in the pantry在食品室里装满一口袋花生for a pocket full of peanuts, she made off to离开，去a secret corner of the veranda into which进去only a small, agile(nimble)细小敏捷child could squeeze挤, andopened the closely printed pages of an old edition印刷得稠密的旧版本书页, and discovered her playmates玩伴.5. How can I make you know我如何才能让你明白what that discovery was to that small, lonely child? There in that corner above the country road在那乡村公路边的楼上的那个角落in China 在中国的那个地方, with vendors passing beneath me小贩们从我眼底走过, I entered into my own heritage进入我自己继承的宝书. I cannot tell you about those hours. I know I was roused (waken) at six o’clock by the call to my supper叫我吃碗饭的喊声使我回过神来, and I looked about dazed头昏眼花，四处张望, to discover the long rays of the late afternoon sun 迟暮的日光streaming across the valleys漫过山谷. I remember twice I closed the book and burst into tears突然大哭, unable to bear忍受the tragedy of Oliver Twist, and then opened it quickly again, burning to know more渴望更多的认识. I remember, most significant of all, that Iforgot to touch a peanut我忘记了我的花生，连动都没动, and my pocket was still quite full when I was called. I went to my supper in a dream, and read as late as I dared in my bed afterward尔后，我总会躺在床上看书到很晚，直到有些害怕为止, and slept with the book under my pillow, and woke again in the early morning. When Oliver Twist was finished, and after it Hard Times, I was wretched (miserable) with indecision (decision / indecisive). I felt I must read it all straight over again再一次通读一遍, and yet I不过，我还对……非常渴望was voracious for that long row of blue books. What was in them? I climbed up again, finally, and put Oliver Twist at the beginning, and began on the next one, which was David Copperfield. I resolved (decide / be determined) to 决心去读遍那一排书read straight through the row and then begin at the beginning once more and read straight through again.然后又从头开始，再通读一遍。

Unit 10Travel and TourismTourism is an activity which cuts across conventional sectors in the economy. It requires in uts of an economic , social, cultural an environmental natural. In this sense it is often described as being multi-faced. The problem in describing tourism as an “industry” is that it does not have the usual formal production function ,nor does it have an output which can physically be measured ,unlike agricultural (tons of wheat ) of beverages ( litres of whisky ). There is no common structure which is representative of the industry in every country. In France an Italy, for example, restaurants and shopping facilities are major attractions for tourists;in Russia they are not .Even the core components of the tourism industry, such as accommodation and transport, can vary between countries. In the UK many tourists use bed and breakfast accommodation in private houses; in Thailand such facilities ate not available .In the transport sector, levels of car ownership and developed road networks cause many tourists to use their cars or buses in Western Europe and the USA . In India and Indonesia, most tourists travel by air . It is some of these problems of definition that have caused many writers to refer to the tourist sector rather than the tourist industry . Sometimes the terms are used interchangeably, as they are used here.However, there are a number of features associating with tourism which are quite explicit .For example, tourism implies that a person undertakes a journey : the journey may be for less than a day (day tripper/visitor); or it may be a journey within a national boundary, therefore constituting a domestic tourist trip; or it might be a journey which crosses an international boundary ,therefore being classified as an international tourism trip .However, it is not only the nature of the journey that very broadly should be for leisure or business . In looking at the development of tourism historically, most attention has been given to the concept of international tourism, i.e. journeys across international boundaries.The problem of definition is a serious and continuing difficulty for analysis of tourism .In particular the amorphous nature of the tourism industry has made it difficult to evaluate its impact on the economy relative to other sectors in the economy .Techniques have been developed to facilitate measurement of impact but there is no universally accepted definition of what constitutes the tourism industry . Most academic writers tend to craft their definition to suit their specific purposes. Here the definition given by Burkart and Medlik (1981) is accepted: the phenomenon arising from temporary visits(or stays away from home) outside the normal place of residence for any reason other than furthering an occupation remunerated from within the place visited.Although the components of the tourism industry will differ between countries, there are certain subsectors which are clearly identified as being components of tourism activity , such as the accommodation sector which would include not only formal accommodation, hotel guest houses, etc.,but also camping sites ,rooms in private houses and bed and breakfast type arrangements. Travel agents and touroperators are recognized as comprising another distinct subsector. Transport-airlines, shipping, rail and cat hire, cars and coaches—will also be seem as being important inputs to the tourism sector . In some countries,shopping and production of handicrafts is another associated activity of tourism.If we use 1945 as being the year when the development of the major growth in the tourism industry began , we can make some general observations relating to the changes which one can discern in the tourism industry.Before the 1950s ,tourism was very much an industry which was fragmented; hotels, transport operators ,travel agents , tour operators all tended to work independently of each other. Hotels were largely in the business of selling bed nights. Airlines and railways were in the business of selling seats. Travel agents , of course , were selling travel and holidays . But in each case they tended to operate very much as individual businesses. From the mid-1950s onwards , particularly in the UK, the growth of tour operators began to change the mature of the industry from essentially individual business activities to more integrated activities. Hotels, for example, were beginning to see customers as wanting a range of services rather than simple buying accommodation. So hotels began to develop shopping arcades and later to offer secretarial centres to try to increase the spending of guests within the hotel complex. Transport services as being integral to a much wider need. Airlines offered insurance and accommodation booking travel services including holiday arrangements, medical services, car hire, etc.What we have seem since the 1950s is the emergence of a holiday and travel industry which is offering more integrated services. This is particularly noticeable with the forward and backward integration of some of the very large tour operators. To some extent this was determined by the nature of demand. In other cases it was a business opportunity to integrate demand and provide a service at a much more competitive price and to maintain and increase market share. By 1990the structure of the tourism industry ,certainly in the UK and Europe , was influenced by the growth of some very large companies. In the USA, American anti-trust laws discouraged, if not prohibited, the development of large integrated companies. The American experience in tour operation has been very different from that within Europe, particularly compared with the UK.As the structure of service provision changed, so did the nature of holiday taking. Up until 1946, i.e. the period between the world wars, much of international travel was for the privileged, wealthy and elite groups in society. From 1950 onwards a combination of factors, for example, increase in leisure time availability, increase in paid holidays, development of package tours, development in air transport—all combined to provide a much wider potential holiday-taking market. This market was different in terms of socioeconomic groups from the pre-1950 era.The changing nature of holiday was reflected in the social groups taking holidays, and in the distances which people were prepared to travel to holiday destinations. One of the major demand changes was the increased availability of leisure for a wider group in society. Rising real incomes, paid holidays and growing propensity to demand foreign holidays, or a combination of these, were important and continuingfactors stimulating international tourism demand. These factors were not simple economic determinants but also social ones. As the world recovered from the Second World War there was growing evidence to indicate that people were spending more time on leisure activities and on travel. These tendencies were reflected in the protection that many people gave to holiday expenditures, these expenditures being the last to be surrendered in the face of income changes.We can conclude that , especially since 1945, tourism has developed into a significant international industry. As it has developed it has also become more specialized, with vertical and horizontal company amalgamations creating different scales of operation in various market segments. The growth in international airlines of operation in various market segments. The growth in international airlines, advances in information technology and the growth flexibility in inclusive tour arrangements have all contributed to the present structure and characteristics of the tourism industry.。
