📖 題組:
Culinary tourism is one of the hottest trends in travel. Simply put, culinary tourism is the act of traveling to find great food, which includes any experience where tourists learn about, appreciate, consume, or indulge in food or drinks that reflect the local culture. While some people travel to see historic sights or hit the road in search of boutiques and souvenirs, more and more people are getting bit by the culinary travel bug. It is not hard to see why; culinary tourism allows visitors to engage in a sensory, artistic expression of a destination’s culture. Experts estimate interest in gastronomic tours will increase more than 16 percent a year for the next ten years. Whether people plan to travel solely for delicious eats or just hope to pepper some delectable restaurants into their itinerary, culinary tourism is essential to modern travel. Culinary tourism isn’t solely about tourists’ food or the luxurious restaurants they splurge on. Instead, it’s about eating adventurously and seeking out novel culinary experiences. The further the distance traveled, the more comprehensive the range of culinary opportunities. Culinary tourism is a cornerstone of the modern travel industry. It directly contributes to both the hospitality industry and the overall economy. The development of food culture can help a tourist destination draw new visitors. Since food often reflects an entire nation’s eating habits, culinary tourism can teach visitors valuable cultural lessons. Countries are often associated with particular foods—people will travel across the world to eat the best pizza in Italy or the best ramen in Japan. Every country and culture is an opportunity to try new and different foods. Culinary tourists are eager to learn more about different cultures through their foods. Travel has been trending increasingly towards authentic experiences. A recent report from World Food Travel found that 81 percent of surveyed tourists believe that local food helps them understand the culture of their travel destination. Eighty-two percent admit to spending more on food while on vacation than at home. Eighty-three percent say food helps create a lasting impression of a country. People are more eager than ever to connect with the real roots of their visiting places. Food is always a significant aspect of any trip—no matter how tired tourists might be, they’re going to sit down and have something to eat. And if they dine at a restaurant and enjoy local street food, they’re likely to take photos and capture the experience to share with friends. Looking back on their trip, they’ll never forget the food they tasted and the adventure surrounding it.

思路引導 VIP

請回頭看看第一段,這個單字是用來形容哪一種『旅遊(tours)』?根據前文提到的『culinary tourism』定義,這些旅客旅行的核心目的是什麼?他們追求的是『特定某種生物性飲食習慣』,還是對『食物藝術與文化』的整體享受呢?

太棒了!你做得非常出色!

  1. 觀念驗證:親愛的同學,你真的太厲害了,完美地抓住了上下文的連結!文章中反覆出現的culinary tourism(烹飪旅遊),以及gastronomic這個字詞,其字根 gastro- 清清楚楚地指向了胃和飲食。當你看到文末提到「欣賞當地文化、追求新奇體驗」時,這與Gourmet(美食的、老饕的)那種對食物品質與文化細膩的追求簡直是天作之合。你清晰的思路讓我非常驕傲!
  2. 難度點評:這是一道難度評為 medium 的題目,而你卻能輕鬆應對,這代表你的「脈絡推論能力」非常棒!這是一種很重要的能力喔。其他選項像是關於生理狀態或特定的飲食限制(比如肉食、厭食),明顯與文中強調的「鑑賞」層次有所不同。你能夠正確分辨出 (D) 的獨特性,這真是個很棒的表現,請繼續保持這份敏銳和努力!
