The Gold Coast family holidays are always great fun whether you are from Australia or from abroad. There are beautiful beaches, adventure parks, nature parks and so much more.
There are so many sights to see here. It is a pity to drive in a car and you'll miss a great part of it. Australia is home to many animals and birds that can only be seen when moving slowly and going into the areas that they live.
When you are on a bicycle, you have the advantage of being able to stop whenever you want to see an interesting animal or bird that you have never seen before. It is a quieter mode (方式) of transportation as well, so you might even be able to take a picture. When you are on the beach, you can breathe that clean air and view the beauty of the water and sand. It is a totally different experience from either simply sunbathing or passing it in a car.
There are many choices of hiring a bicycle to experience the Gold Coast attractions. There are stores that will fit a bike perfectly to your size. These bikes for both adults and children are in many styles and colors to please any taste. If you have ever wanted to try a tandem bike (双人单车), now is your chance, because they have those too.
A bicycle hire on Gold Coast is something that everyone should try at least once. This is a wonderful chance for anyone who likes to cycle and it is also a cheap way to travel with your family.

Tourism has the power to bring jobs and economic development to popular destination(目的地), but how should travelers decide where to spend their money? Are some countries more deserving of visitors' dollars than others?
That's the idea behind the 10destination list put together by San Franciscobased nonprofit Ethical(有道德的)Traveler, which since 2006,has published an annual guide to the World's Best Ethical Destinations in the developing world.
“Instead of publishing countries for doing bad things,”said Jeff Greenwald, executive director of Ethical Traveler, “we're trying to offer a favor, rewarding countries in the developing world that are really trying to do the right thing.”
So which countries are the most ethical? For 2013, the winners are Barbados, Cape Verde, Costa Rica, Ghana, Latvia, Lithuania, Mauritius, Palau, Samoa and Uruguay.
Those 10 countries scored highest in three main areas—social welfare, environmental protection and human rights. Greenwald explained that countries must have a good tourism infrastructure(基础建设) to make the list, but the nonprofit Ethical Traveler also uses the list to promote(提倡) some undervisited places that can be a role model for other countries in their region. For example, Latvia earned high marks for improving its environmental efforts and strong human rights record, and the country's parks and nature reserves make for a great offthe beatenpath ecotourism trip.
In addition to just visiting these countries, travelers should aim to spend their money in locallyowned business, Greenwald said, to ensure their financial support stays in the country they're visiting. However, that requires a wellmanaged tourism infrastructure. While one could argue those poor places need the money even more, tourism can put pressure on countries that face such challenges.
Erica Avrami, research and education director at the World Monuments Fund(WMF) said that a list of ethical destinations is “a wonderful idea”, the idea of being ethical goes both ways. “There's also a certain responsibility on the part of the traveler to make sure their own footprint is as minimal as possible,” she said.
文章大意:旅行如何决定要把钱花在哪里呢?自从2006年以来,在旧金山一家非盈利性组织出版了一份世界上最好的道德目的地的旅游指南。
5.The passage mainly aims to ________.
A.promote ethical destinations
B.encourage ecotourism trips

D.discuss which countries are ethical destinations
答案:A 写作目的题。根据文章大意及第五段中but the nonprofit Ethical Traveler also uses the list to promote(提倡) some undervisited places that can be a role model for other countries in their region.可以得出答案。故A正确。
6.According to the fifth paragraph Latvia can make the list partially for its ________.
A.good tourism infrastructure B.regular ecotourism trip
C.strong human rights record D.good social welfares
答案:C 细节理解题。根据文章第五段最后一句For example, Latvia earned high marks for improving its environmental efforts and strong human rights record, and the country's parks and nature reserves make for a great offthebeatenpath ecotourism trip.可知。故C正确。
7.According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A.Tourism fails to help develop local economy and provide jobs.
B.All the destinations should equally share the money spent by visitors.
C.Ethical Traveler punishes the developing countries for doing wrong things.
D.Ethical Traveler rewards the developing countries for doing the right thing.
答案:D 细节理解题。根据文章第三段trying to offer a favor, rewarding countries in the developing world that are really trying to do the right thing.可知D项表述正确。故D正确。
8.In the eyes of Erica Avrami ________.
A.being ethical is not actually a wonderful idea
B.being ethical depends on both travelers and destinations
C.travelers are advised to travel as far as possible
D.travelers should leave as much footprint as possible
