英语翻译
At one time,people used to travel to foreign countries because they thought they would be different from home ----- the building,the food,and the national dress.Nowadays,however,one large city is very like another.They all have their Hilton or Sheraton Hotels which look like Hilton or Sheraton Hotels everywhere.They all have their McDonald’s,their KFCs,their Pizza Huts.Office buildings look the same everywhere,and most city centers are full of office buildings.And,of course,people are driving the same brands of Japanese or European cars,usually wearing the same kinds of clothing and watching the same American movies and TV shows except for a few programs.Airports are the same everywhere and the world’s airlines are all flying the same aircraft,Boeings or Airbuses.What,therefore,is the purpose (目的) of foreign travel for people who are not on business?What do tourists hope to experience in a foreign country?The answer could be that people are very interested in the past.It is a nation’s history,not its main attraction (吸引力).Most of today’s tourists travel overseas to find out what foreign countries and cultures used to be like,not what they are like today.The words ‘cultural tourism’ are now part of the language of tourism,and it is the museums and works of art in many countries that are their main attraction.If they are lucky and have had sensible,strong governments,many countries will also usually have at least a few beautiful places for tourists to visit.Finally there is perhaps a nation’s greatest attraction:its people.A nation isn’t just its historical buildings,its works of art or beautiful places,it is also the people who live in it.This is why a country such as Thailand attracts millions of people every year.They come mainly because of the friendliness of the Thai people.It is why the Pacific Islands are also so popular.There may not be much to see or do on Fuji,but there are lots of friendly,smiling people to make visions feel welcome.

以前,人们出国旅游是因为他们以为无论房屋,食物,还是穿着,国外的都会与国内不同.然而如今,大城市间彼此十分类似.每个城市都有着与其他城市类似的希顿酒店和喜来登酒店.他们也都有着麦当劳,肯德基,还有披萨店.随处可见相同的办公建筑,而且大城市也总是充满了办公楼.当然,除此之外,人们还开着同样品牌的日本车或欧洲车,也总穿相同种类的衣服,除个别节目外也同样看美国电影、电视秀.各处机场都一个样子,全世界的航空公司都飞着同样的飞机,波音客机或空中客车.那么,那些非因公差出国旅游的人的目的是什么呢?答案可能是人们其实是对哪个国家的过去很感兴趣.那是一个国家的历史,而不是他的主要魅力.如今,大多数游客出国游玩都是为了要知道那些国家的过去以及以前的文化,而不是为了如今的风貌.所谓“文化旅游”,现在是旅游业的一种表达,也是许多国家充满魅力的博物馆以及艺术作品.通常,许多国家都会给游客提供不下数处景点以供参观,如果他们够幸运,且有明智的,强有力的政府.最后,或许一个国家最有魅力的所在,就是他的国人.国家并不仅仅是历史性的建筑,艺术作品以及美景,更是人民所居住的地方.这就是像泰国那样的国家每年都吸引数以百万计的游客的原因.他们去泰国很大程度上都是因为那些友善的泰国人.这也是太平洋岛屿受欢迎的原因.或许,在富士山上,并没有多少好看的,好做的,可是人们的友善与微笑,就会使游客的视野更加明朗.
