 D (江苏常熟市2013届初三调研测试题)
Without planning tourism（旅游业） can cause problems. For example, too many tourists can crowd pubic places that are also enjoyed by the people there. If tourists create too much traffic, the people there become angry and unhappy. They began to dislike tourists and to treat them impolitely. They forget how much tourism can help the country's economy (经济).It is important to think about how tourism affects them. Tourism should help a country keep the culture and beauty that attract tourists. Tourism should be also helpful for the health and happiness of local people.【来源：21cnj*y.co*m】
    Too much tourism can be a problem. If tourism grows too quickly, people must leave other jobs to work in the tourism industry. This means that other parts of the country's economy can suffer.【出处：21教育名师】
    On the other hand, if there is not enough tourism, people can lose jobs. Businesses can also lose money. It costs a great deal of money to build large hotels, airports, first - class roads, and other support facilities (设施) needed by tourist attractions. For example, a large hotel can cost as much as 50 thousand dollars per room to build. If this room is not used most of the time, the owners of the hotel will lose money.【来源：21·世纪·教育·网】
    Building a hotel is just a beginning. There must be many support. facilities as well,  including roads to get to the hotel, electricity, sewers (下水道) to handle waste and water.
