【正确答案】：【参考答案】 In recent years, there has been a sharp increase in the number of Chinese tourists traveling abroad.However, along with this surge are some uncivil behaviors,which have received fierce criticism.For example,some tourists may smoke, talk loudly, throw trash around, or even scrawl on cultural relics in the scenic spots. Personally,I hate such misbehaviors and believe that we can behave ourselves to tackle this problem and to make ourselves welcome tourists.How to become a welcome tourist? I have the following advices. First, learn about your destination and its culture.You'll have a better time if you do some research about the place you're visiting before you go, and also if you learn a few words of the local languages or dialects to greet the local people, you will make yourself more welcome.Second, respect the local customs, and the dignity and rights of the local people no matter how it is strange to you. In turn, you'll be better respected as a visitor.Third, always remember what is appropriate in one country or village may not be appropriate in another. So don't take photos without asking, including photos of children. Don't enter into people's private spaces/homes without invitation. Last but not least, minimize your environmental impact.Pollution is becoming a major problem in most tropical countries and tourists have contributed greatly to this. In short, if all of us follow the above principles,it doesn't take much to make our trip a positive experience for everyone.
