Attacks by terrorists have led to a dramatic fall in tourism in parts of North Africa, where millions rely on the trade to make a living. New figures from the United Nations World Tourism Organisation (UNWTO) show that visits to North Africa fell by 8% this year, resisting a global upward trend. International tourism grew by 4.4% overall, to reach a total of 1.18 billion arrivals, according to the UNWTO.
But countries such as Tunisia, Egypt and Morocco have been hit hard. Beach resorts such as Sharm el-Sheikh in Egypt, where a passenger jet was loaded with a bomb in November, and Sousse in Tunisia, where gunmen opened fire at holidaymakers in June, have seen visitor numbers sharply decline. Some 3,500 British tourists left Tunisia in the days after the Sousse attack, in which 38 people—30 of them British—were shot by Islamist gunman at the Port El Kantaoui resort. Limited data available for Africa as a whole suggested that tourism was down by 3% to 53 million—8% in North Africa and 1% in Sub-Saharan Africa. But citing a "larger degree of uncertainty and unpredictability", the UNWTO has predicted between 3.5% and 4.5% of growth in global tourism in the next year.
5. What change took place in North Africa?
6. What helped bring about the change?
7. What is the trend of World Tourism?
选项
A、Countries in North Africa were attacked by terrorists.
B、World tourism was influenced by economy.
C、3,500 people died in Britain.
D、A passenger jet was attacked in Middle East.
答案
A
解析
新闻开头和中间多次提到北非多国被恐怖分子袭击,造成游客骤减(Attacks by terrorists led to a dramatic fall in tourism),故选A。B“全球旅游业受经济影响”没有在新闻中提到。C“3500人死于英国”利用3500作干扰,新闻中提到的是3500名英国游客离开突尼斯,故C错误。D“一架客机在中东遇袭”错误,新闻中提到的是在埃及遇袭。
