提纲:
反对: 电视及互联网促进旅游
1. 过去人们因为对外地了解少而不能出门旅游.
2. 现在通信技术发展, 电视及互联网的信息使得人们了解了更多关于风景名胜的信息.
3. 亲身经历满足人们心里对风景名胜的好奇和新鲜事物的渴望. 这是图片影响信息不可取代的.
We find out that more and more TV programs and the Internet webs on which show the pictures or videos about the places of interest. But does it mean that the television and the worldwide computer connection can meat your desire to visit these places you dream? I do not think so. On the contrary, because of these advertisement on the television and internet, the tourism will be more flourish and profitable.
In the early periods of television, lacking of the information about the world outside, people have to stay at home. At that time, the television is not very popular. Because of the financial and traffic problems, the television can not be transported to these remote places, in where probable lies a beautiful nature sight or a great cultural heritage. Thus the problem aroused is that even if people have the television, they can not have the information about these remote places. Even we do not know where the places are which we read in the newspaper or heard on the radio. Mean while, the bad situation of the traffic does not allow us to reach the places we want to.
With the incredible development of the information technology, we get more information about the other places. There is no doubt that the more information you have about the other places of great interest, the more you desire to go there. And you will find out that where you want to visit best. In this case, we can not deny the great function of the publicizing by the television and internet. They publicize these beautiful places by showing the colorful pictures and the vivid videos on the television of the internet. It is very easy for us to be inspired by these intense crush to our eyes. The fact provides numerous examples to demonstrate the great function of the media. One is that previously unknown island or countries are now making themselves famous through the use of television and the world wide web, trying to earn billions of dollars that are spent on the tourism.
The reason why the tourism would not be obsolete is that the personal experience will make you more satisfied and get bigger hreatquake than the tourism of your eyes. It is true that the pictures and videos on the television and Internet is very vivid and specific, however, without going to these places personally, you can just say that you know them, not be familiar with them. Visiting the Grand Canyon in the Unitied States is not the same as watching it on the television or the Internet. Snow skiing in Swiss in Alps or breathing in the Scottish Highland must be extremely delighted. The surprise you have about the splendor of the Great Wall can not be felt without the tourism. So the enthusiasm about traveling will not be abused by these advertisements on the television and Internet.
To sum up, the majority of the people will be inspired by these pictures and videos of these places of interests on the television and the Internet, except for the reason of the economics or the time. This conclusion has been demonstrated by the increasing of the income from the tourism in many countries and regions. Thus, the television and Internet will impulse the development of the tourism.
