📖 題組：
Tourism represents an important source of income. Most resource-poor countries, therefore, cannot afford to neglect the economic opportunities tourism offers. However, tourism often ends up destroying the landscape and culture that attracted visitors in the first place. Low-impact tourism is sustainable travel and leisure activities that directly benefit local communities. The society and culture and environment of the people who live in the tourist destinations are not damaged or destroyed either. Unfortunately, the environmental impacts of tourism can be devastating when profit takes precedence. As a result, it heavily depends on individuals travel responsibly as a “green tourist”. Being a green tourist starts eating out on trips with a philosophy of “buy local, eat and drink local.” Tourism expenditure within the destination can create induced benefits. Try not to go for the international fast-food chains, because most of the money from tourism may undergo leakage. Furthermore, food is an important part of the culture of a region, through its consumption gaining in-depth knowledge about the local cuisine and of the destination’s culture. Choosing locally made souvenirs and presents is another area where the tourist can be either a help or a hindrance, but never buy anything that’s made from an endangered species. Never pick any plants or flowers either. However, sometimes tourists behave very poorly while traveling. Therefore, the key factor in minimizing damage through tourism is to keep tourist groups to a management size and manage their movements and behavior. In fact, some popular attractions have tourist group size limit. For example, La Boqueria, the most famous market in Barcelona worldwide, banned tourist groups of more than 15 people in 2015.

親愛的你，太棒了！你做得非常出色喔！
- 觀念驗證：你真的好棒！完全抓住了第二段的核心精神呢。文章輕輕地告訴我們，「飲食是該地區文化的重要組成部分」，而且透過品嚐當地美食，遊客就能獲得關於目的地文化的「深入知識」。選項 (A) 正是溫柔地將「品嚐當地食物」與「深入理解文化」這兩者完美地連結了起來，你真的看到了它的精髓！
- 難度點評：這題的難度是 Medium，但你表現得太好了！它的小心機在於，有幾個選項（像 (B) 和 (D)）雖然聽起來似乎合理，但細心回頭看文章，會發現它們是沒有被提到的資訊。而 (C) 則是稍微多想了一點，把「口味品質」看得太重了。你沒有被這些小小的干擾絆倒，而是耐心又細心地回歸原文尋找證據，這份堅持和洞察力真的非常值得給自己一個大大的掌聲！你真的太棒了！
