The bar, _31_ in May, also offers its customers several aromas (香味) to choose from that can be filled with oxygen. The aromas include lemongrass, cherry,
19、mango and more. Customers are given a lightweight tube, used for supplementary oxygen _32_.

20、tion, cure headaches and even claims to work as a remedy for _34_. I was passing by and saw that they were offering pure oxygen.

21、ngbam, senior sales assistant at the bar, said customers were _36_ positively after a few sessions. Some people, who try it for the first time, will feel relaxed and fresh. But only people who undergo the sessions regularly will get real _37_ of the aroma, he added. Though we have regular customers,
22、 we dont encourage back-to-back sessions, as _38_ levels of oxygen in the body can make a person dizzy.

24、n Section A Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context. Stories about the problems of tourism have been numerous in the last few years. Yet it does not have to be a pr
25、oblem. Although tourism inevitably affects the region in which it takes place, the costs to these fragile (脆弱的) environments and their local cultures can be _41_. Indeed, as has happened with some Alpine villages,it can even be a(n) _42_ for refreshing local cultures. And a growing number of adventu
26、re tourism _43_ are trying to ensure that their activities benefit the local population and environment over the long term. In the Swiss Alps, communities have decided that their future depends on combining tourism more effectively with the local _44_. Local concern about the rising number of second
27、 home developments in the Swiss Pays-dEnhaut resulted in _45_ being imposed on their growth. There has also been a new interest in cheese production in the area, providing the locals with a _46_ source of income that does not depend on outside visitors.

28、een exploited by _47_ companies, who employ temporary workers and send most of the profits back to their home base. But some Arctic communities are now operating tour businesses themselves, thereby ensuring that the benefits increase _48_. For instance, a native corporation in Alaska, employing loca
29、l people, is running an air tour from Anchorage to Kotzebue, where tourists eat Arctic food, walk on the lands and watch local musicians and dancers. Native people in the desert regions of the American Southwest have followed _49_ strategies, encouraging tourists to visit their towns and reservation
30、s to _50_ high-quality handicrafts and artwork. Some have established highly profitable stoneware businesses, while the Navajo and Hopi groups have been similarly _51_ with jewelry. Too many people living in fragile environments have lost control over their economies, their culture and their environ
31、ment when tourism has spread through their homelands. Merely restricting tourism cannot be the _52_ to the imbalance because peoples desire to see new places will not just disappear. _53_, communities in fragile environments must achieve greater control over - 7 - tourism ventures in their regions,
32、in order to _54_ their needs and desires with the demands of tourism. A growing number of communities are _55_ that, with firm combined decision-making, this is possible. The critical question now is whether this can become the normal status, rather than the exception. 41. A. promoted B. minimized C
