Homework V Today some countries have come to rely on tourism as their major source. But many people believe that the problems caused by tourism are more serious than it has solved. The first thing to consider when discussing tourism is that tourism attracts too many people which may cause the environmental pollution problems and the increasing of the crime rate. On the other hand, some people think that we should not rely only on tourism as the major source of income because this make our economic structure too dependent on others. Although some people say that tourism may cause more issues, I believe that tourism can help people to solve much more troubles. Firstly, there is no doubt that tourism can offer so many jobs for those unemployed people, and it can promote economic growth and even the rate of economic growth. In addition, some countries rely on tourism as their major source of income because of their special geographic position or national territorial area. Australia and Italy are two of the most famous examples as far as I know. The next important point is that we can advocate our culture to the whole world through the tourism. It is well known that more and more foreigners came to China and loved it as China’s status becoming higher and higher. Finally, tourism cities or countries general pay more attention on environmental problems than other cities or countries. Consequently, they may be much more beautiful and cleaner. To sum up, I believe that the advantage of tourism far outweighs the disadvantage and there is no problem that a country relies on tourism as its major source of income.
