阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
Visiting the Louvre is a special experience, but you need to know where lo start.
The first thing to know is that it's huge and you can't hope lo see everything in a
day. You get a map of the museum with your entrance ticket.
You can't visit the Louvre and not see the Mona Lisa. My advice would be to
see it first, though you may have to run to avoid the crowds! When you' ve done that, use the map to look for the
galleries that sound most interesting to you, and spend the morning visiting them, when you have plenty of energy.Then you can have some lunch at one of the cafés, and spend the afternoon relaxing and finding surprises without
looking at your map. The beauty' of any museum or gallery is personal discovery.
You can pay to borrow an audio guide, which is very useful and worth the money. You have to leave a credit
card or passport. There are several places offering audio guides. You need to remember which one you got it from,
because you must return it to the same one to get your credit card or passport back. The Louvre is made up of many
＂wings" with names and the audio guides are at the entrance to each wing.
Finally,the easiest way lo enter the Louvre is from the underground entrance.rather than from the street,as the
lines are shorter.
（）1. What can we learn from the first paragraph?
A. The Louvre is very big.
B.The Louvre entrance ticket is expensive.
C. You can see everything in the Louvre in a day if you plan wisely.
D. You can get a map of the Louvre in any language with your entrance ticket.
（）2. What does the writer suggest doing for the afternoon?
A.Finding surprises.
B. Having coffee in a café.

International tourism is becoming more and more popular. Large numbers of people from all over the world
come to visit famous places,such as the Great Wall of China and the Sistine Chapel in Vatican City.These visitors
contribute a lot to the local development, hut at the same time they have caused many problems. They've thrown
rubbish everywhere,brought more traffic and even done serious damage to these places.
As for the damage, there are many different causes. For example,the paintings in the Sistine Chapel are being
damaged because people breathe onto them when they visit. Damage in other places such as the Great Wall isserious partly because tourists climb on delicate areas. Even though some of the walls were built of stone, after so
many years,they are already in poor condition and need to be rebuilt.
__ __On the one hand, we have to cut down tourist numbers, because fewer visitors will result in less
damage.
On the other hand, we should make strict rules about which areas people can visit and what they can do when they
get there. For example, special paths can be built and people will not be allowed to walk off the paths. Visitors lo
indoor places can be asked to wear masks to protect the paintings.
It is necessary to control tourism at famous places. If we do not do this, these places will disappear from our
planet. And people who live hundreds of years later will have no chance to see these great places.
