John Rentoul makes the case against travel and tourism Ido not understand the modern fashion for long-distance travel a course It was once an evolutionary advantage to it all; people moved around in the search for food and better living conditions But now we so without a purpose We travel thousands of miles to get to the other side of the world, and then two weeks later we come back again What for? To see the sights and make a mess of them? To get to know other cultures? You must be joking ‘The instinct to explore has been exhausted Humans have been everywhere, done everything They have climbed to the top of Everest so often the summit 176 resembles a rubbish dump Driven by their genes to invent ever more absurd frontiers to cross, the sort of people who might once have trekked across the Rocky Mountains are now chartering jets so they can freefall parachute over Antarctica This restlessness and our ever increasing desire to travel long distances is disastrous for the environment Air travel burns up unimaginable quantities of fuel and is the most energy-hungry’thing that people can It is a scandal that aviation fuel for international flights is not taxed If the governments of the world could agree to something about it, they would have a permanent source of income - and put the brakes on the fastest-growing source of global warming gases As for the idea that travel broadens the mind, widens people’s horizons and promotes international understanding, this is just nonsense You can only really lea anything about foreign countries by living and working in them and I applaud those who it It is tourism J object to, and especially the desire to go to the remotest, wildest and often poorest places in the world and build four-star hotels in them It does not the local people much good: the hotels are all owned by foreign companies and only 30 per cent of the profits stay in the country Instead, it encourages the demand for Coca-Cola and McDonalds and accelerates the homogenization of world culture Go abroad and exactly what you at home But it is not just travel to remote places which is unwise Even in the United Kingdom, there is no way I would travel long distances by car As with air travel, statistics may tell us that motorways are not dangerous, but no one can tell me that it is safe for people to be hurtling along within feet of each other at more than 70 miles per hour If you have to travel long distances, the only civilized way is by train Next summer, as you hold on to your seat nervously during take-off, and prepare yourself for a week or two of jet lag and sunburn, think of me, enjoying uninterrupted sleep on the overnight train to Glasgow 71, What does the author say about the fashion for long-distance travel? A, It enables us to understand other’ cultures B It helps us to relax C There is no longer any point to it D It takes up a lot of time 72 Why people things such as freefall parachuting in Antarctica, according to the author? A They feel the need for greater challenges B They are trying to solve personal problems © It is safer than climbing mountains D They want to go trekking in isolated places 177 73, Why, according to the author, should aviation fuel be taxed? A, Other types of fuel are taxed B It would enable governments to buy more fuel C It would help governments stay in power D It would ultimately help reduce pollution 74 What does the author mean when he says that tourism accelerates the homogenization of world culture (line 30)? A Everyone is eating fast food B People are rapidly becoming the same wherever you go C People in remote places are becoming poorer D The pace or life is speeding up 75 What does the author feel about road travel? A Distances are too long B Motorways are safe C Other countries are safer than the United Kingdom D Driving can be dangerous IT’S ARCTIC IF YOU HAVEN'T HEARD OF THE BAND MONKEYS! ARCTIC MONKEYS, YOU MUST LIVE ON A DIFFERENT PLANET! OR YOU'VE GOT BETTER THINGS TO DO WITH YOUR TIME THAN LISTEN TO ROCK AND POP ARCTIC MONKEYS ARE ONE OF THE MOST SUCCESSFUL BANDS OF THE LAST FEW YEARS BUT HOW MUCH DO YOU KNOW ABOUT THEM? The band have been playing together since 2002, but they first became really successful in 2005 There are currently four boys in the band (Alex, Jamie, Matt and Nick) and two boys (Andy and Glyn) have left the band since it started All the members grew up in Sheffield, in the North of England, and a lot of the songs are about life in Sheffield When the band were getting started, they used to give people free CDs of their songs at concerts Fans would put these on the Internet, so other people could listen to them too Because of this, some journalists have written that Arctic Monkeys became famous because of the website MySpace, but this isn't really true Alex has said that when the band got its first record contract, he didn’t know what MySpace was Arctic Monkeys have sold a very large number of CDs, and they've won lots of music awards and prizes too, including the 2006 Mercury Prize for Album of the Year They were also nominated for the 2007 prize, but they didn’t win They've also broken some records For example, their first album (Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What Fm Not) became the fastest selling first album in British music history The band have been on lots of tours, giving concerts wherever they go They have done a world tour, and smaller tours a Europe, North America and Asia The boys have also done some interviews, but not many They're quite shy, and 178 don’t like giving interviews and talking about themselves They have appeared on TV quite a lot to play their songs They have a great sense of humour, so they sometimes wear silly clothes Once, they wore clown costumes to perform a song Their songs are often funny too Because the words are clever and amusing, some people don’t believe that Arctic Monkeys write their own songs They think other people write the songs for them However, there is no proof that this is true, and Alex says he has been writing songs since he was at school, so here at PopMag, we believe they write them themselvest 76 What happened in 2002?

A, that Arctic Monkeys write all their own songs B that Alex hasn't been writing songs since he was at school C that Arctic Monkeys’ songs aren’t funny and clever D that Arctic Monkeys don't write their own songs — THE END - 179 25 I II Find the word that has its underlined part pronounced differently from the other three in each question A A A A caught great hopeful pretty B B B B bought bean opposite send C C © C drought beach local dental D D D D laughter reach postal petty Find the word with the stress pattern different from that of the other three words in each question Avreluctance A.meteorite A.employee A amount B attendance B.ferocious B.relugee B themselves C C C C performance adventure committee control D utterance D.achievement D absentee D primarily III Identify the one underlined word or phrase that must be changed in order for the sentence to be correct The leading lady unfortunately losing her voice during the dress rehearsal A 8) c) ©) 10 Last night my neighbours were shouting for hours and I can‘t get to sleep (A) (B) 11, When you lived in London, did you use to travelling by bus?
