the tourist trade is booming. with all this coming and going, you’d expect greater understanding to develop between the nations of the world. not a bit of it! superb systems of communication by air, sea and land make it possible for us to visit each other’s countries at a moderate cost. what was once the ‘grand tour’, reserved for only the very rich, is now within everybody’s grasp. the package tour and chartered flights are not to be sneered at. modern travelers enjoy a level of comfort which the lords and ladies on grand tours in the old days couldn’t have dreamed of. but what’s the sense of this mass exchange of populations if the nations of the world remain basically ignorant of each other?

many tourist organizations are directly responsible for this state of affairs. they deliberately set out to protect their clients from too much contact with the local population. the modern tourist leads cosseted, sheltered life. he lives at international hotels, where he eats his international food and sips his international drink while he gazes at the natives from a distance. conducted tours to places of interest are carefully censored. the tourist is allowed to see only what the organizers want him to see and no more. a strict schedule makes it impossible for the tourist to wander off on his own; and anyway, language is always a barrier, so he is only too happy to be protected in this way. at its very worst, this leads to a new and hideous kind of colonization. the summer quarters of the inhabitants of the cite universities: are temporarily re-established on the island of corfu. blackpoll is recreated at torremolinos where the traveler goes not to eat paella, but fish and chips.

the sad thing about this situation is that it leads to the persistence of national stereotypes. we don’t see the people of other nations as they really are, but as we have been brought up to believe they are. you can test this for yourself. take five nationalities, say, french, german, english, american and italian. now in your mind, match them with these five adjectives: musical, amorous, cold, pedantic, native. far from providing us with any insight into the national characteristics of the peoples just mentioned, these adjectives actually act as barriers. so when you set out on your travels, the only characteristics you notice are those which confirm your preconceptions. you come away with the highly unoriginal and inaccurate impression that, say, ‘anglo-saxons are hypocrites’ or that ‘latin peoples shout a lot’. you only have to make a few foreign friends to understand how absurd and harmful national stereotypes are. but how can you make foreign friends when the tourist trade does its best to prevent you?

carried to an extreme, stereotypes can be positively dangerous. wild generalizations stir up racial hatred and blind u to the basic fact—how trite it sounds! –that all people are human. we are all similar to each other and at the same time all unique.

今天，我和妈妈兴高采烈地来到体育馆集合去云南旅游。

到了机场，我们先把行李托运掉，再去拿票，然后去安检，最后等时间去检票。上了飞机后，很快就起飞了，在飞机上我睡了两觉，醒来后，我就欣赏天空的美景。

时间过的很快，到了昆明已经八点多了，但是昆明还是天亮着呢! 第二天，也是最累的一天，总共坐10多个小时到了有名的丽江。第三天，我们来到玉龙雪山，是国家4a级景区，也是离城市最近的雪山，总共高5506海拔，还是至今从未有人到山顶的人。连日本人坐直升飞机上去都上不去。因为他们最后还是失踪了。我们坐缆车到4506海拔的地方，听说那里人没事的话就可以到西藏去了。那里的雪景可神奇了!山下温度28摄氏度，可咱山顶好多美丽的积雪。

后来我们来到玉水寨。那里的水是雪山上的雪融化的，然后天然过滤过的冰泉。因为它的水质很适合养美国极品鱼类之一——鳟鱼。还可以喝那里的冰泉呢!然后我们去买螺旋藻。听说可以治糖尿病、便秘等。还有各种维生素和防晒作用。听说世上只有三个湖泊才有螺旋藻。

第四天，我们又整整的一天时间回到了昆明。第五天，我们来到了石林，那里像黄山一样有许多奇形怪状的石头。有的像一只婷婷玉立的天鹅，有的像一只正要展翅欲飞的雄鹰，有的像挺着大肚子的猪八戒，尤其是躺着在吃桃子的孙悟空，其中最有趣的是阿诗玛(女孩)的化身体。现在我再向大家介绍一下云南。因为云南是红土地带，所以很适合种天麻、灵芝、参类等药品。云南也有许多美誉：有四季如春的春城;有鲜花满地的花城;还有东方翡翠城。

有一次暑假，我们全家去五台山游玩。

在登山的时候，隐隐约约的树叶声让我吃惊，因为四周并没有风，原来是过路的蜜蜂十分可爱。一只可爱的小狗也跟在我们后面。一路上有你——小狗。

登上山顶，一座四层宝塔映入眼帘，宝塔前面是吃饭的地方，左边是下山的快捷通道：滑梯。右边是卫生间，后面……居然还是小狗！

宝塔的第一层是四个“守护神”。他们高大威武。第二层是一个大佛，具体资料都写在上面。第三层，我透过窗户看见了许多的美丽景色。正在我陶醉之时，一个熟悉的声音把我叫醒，是那只小狗。你真有耐力我默默的敬佩着它。它简直可以算是一大亮点了！

美景与小狗融合在一起，独特新鲜，使我留恋忘返。感谢祖国、感谢大自然、感谢祖国的大好河山!

5月2日，天空淅淅沥沥的下着小雨，我和爸爸同事家妹妹，一起去方山体验爸爸去哪了？

我走在山路上，走着走着，突然"咔嚓"一声，我感觉我脚下有什么东西。我本以为是踩到了鸟蛋什么的，但是，我低头一看，原来是一个易拉罐，我顺手把它捡起来丢到了垃圾桶。可是谁知没走几步又遇到一个，我还是把它捡起来丢进了垃圾桶。我觉得这个事情很奇怪，顺着山路向上望去，原来前面几个大学生模样的大哥哥大姐姐，一边喝着饮料，一边乱扔着手中的垃圾。

我停下来，想了想，这个事情怎么办呢？突然一个计策从我的心底冒出。我和爸爸同事的孩子刘怡宁说："妹妹，我们一起来做捡垃圾游戏怎么样？”妹妹差异的望着我。我连忙说：”前面的大哥哥大姐姐东西丢了，我们捡起来还给他们怎么样？”妹妹领会我的意思，我们两个小女孩，一边捡着瓶瓶罐罐，一边顺着山路向上跑。当快要接近他们的时候，我和妹妹异口同声地说："大哥哥，大姐姐，等一等，你们的东西丢了！”

他们停下脚步，惊奇地望着我们，当看到我们手里拿着6—7个垃圾瓶子时，我发现他们的脸立刻红了，一个大姐姐一枪过去那些垃圾，连忙笑着说："小妹妹，谢谢你们！”他们不好意思，回头顺着山道向下把我们检漏的瓶子捡起来。

爸爸们追上我们，摸着我们的头，笑了。我们生活的城市是一个山美水美人文也美得南京，我们有什么理由不让它更美呢？让我们一起携手，与文明旅游同行。

放暑假了！我可以去厦门玩了！原来，爸爸妈妈早就谋划好这个暑假带我们去厦门旅游，还订好了机票。当我和妹妹一听到这个令人振奋的消息时，整夜整夜睡不着觉，巴不得现在就到厦门了。

期盼已久的厦门旅行如期而至我们一家人高高兴兴的登上了飞机。几个小时后，我们终于到了厦门，听说厦门比我们杭州还小呢！我们到的时候已是傍晚，于是，我们直接去了赫赫有名的步行街游玩。步行街里真是玲琅满目，样样都有，而且还一点儿都不热，各式各样的小饰品，大小不一的饭馆，看的我眼花缭乱！

接着，我们又步行去海边，吹吹海风，可惬意了！第二天，我们启程去了胡里山炮台，观看各种大炮，一台台的大炮让我震惊不已，原来古代时的大炮是这副模样啊！参观完胡里山炮台后已是下午，然后妈妈直接带着我们去海边游泳，一阵阵的海浪波澜起伏，我们尽情水里嬉闹、捡贝壳，不知不觉就是傍晚了。我现在才知道，原来厦门有盖章本，在整个厦门都很流行，因为厦门比较小，所以，拿到本子，上面会写着哪家店可以敲章，一个个敲，回家时作为纪念，我们自然也敲得津津乐道。最后我们又去了厦门最有名的鼓浪屿坐了快艇，横行在无边无际的大海上，内心兴奋不已。厦门之旅结束了，我的思想却还停留在厦门，啊！厦门，一座美丽的海上花园！
