International tourism has been booming since the end of the Cold War era. Yet more negative comments can be heard about it now. Complaints about this industry are mostly concerned with the ecological damage it may cause such as trash on the streets and in the parks. However, promotion of ecotourism seems to have made international tourists increasingly aware of irresponsible, eco-unfriendly acts (e.g. , littering) and have relieved the ecological side effects of international tourism effectively. As for the claim that tourism may result in travelers' disrespect for the local culture, I seriously question its legitimacy. As we all probably know, international travel is always a major investment that is, the money, time and energy spent during an overseas trip amount to very high costs. I doubt that many people would like to pay such high costs for traveling to a place whose culture they dislike or even despise.
自冷战时代结束以来,国际旅游业就蓬勃发展起来。然而,如今却可以听到更多关于它的负面评论。 对国际旅游的抱怨,主要与它可能引起的生态破坏有关,比如,在街道和国家公园中到处丢弃的都是垃圾。但是,生态旅游的推广使国际游客越来越意识到那些不负责任的、对生态不利的行为,比如乱扔垃圾的后果,并且有效缓解了国际旅游带来的生态副作用。 至于有人断言,旅游可能会导致游客不尊重当地文化,对此我严重质疑其合理性。可能总所周知的是,国际旅游始终是一项重大的投资——也就是说,在海外旅行中所花费的金钱、时间和精力都意味着很高的成本。我怀疑,是否会有很多人愿意为了去他们讨厌甚至鄙视的文化所在地旅行而支付如此高的成本。
