Travelling, integrated writing, Test 1 Delta

In the passage, the author mainly talks about the earliest tourism and later tourism, which is confirmed by the speaker of the speech. Moreover, the speaker mentions a third kind of tourism: environmental tourism.

In the first place, at the beginning of the speech, the speaker says that the earliest travelling dues mainly to political, or economical reasons. People often conquer other tribes. Then, according to the speaker, folks venture and prey wild animals, which is the same as what is stated in the passage. The speaker also refers to a person's book which talks about tourism in ancient times and influential.

In the second place, the speaker talks tourism in contemporary, which is similar to the content of the article as well. In the speaker's speech, the speaker divides current tourism into two kinds: ethnical tourism and environmental tourism. In ethnical tourism, people mainly travel to please themselves and to recreate. The article also mentions this point. Besides, folks today, according to the speaker, go to distant places to find unusual cultures. They live with native tribes and take part in local ceremonies. Furthermore, in the speaker's speech, it is held that the goal of accessing aboriginal cultures is to protect them; or otherwise they may be lost forever.

Finally, the speaker refers to environmental tourism which is not discussed in the article. Environmental tourism is kind of the same as ethnical tourism. In this sort of travelling, people go to natural positions to observe and learn various environmental phenomena and protect wild animals and plants, rather than killing natural species. The example stated by the speaker is African safaris that aim to protect wild animals.
