2-Read the following passage, then answer the questions:
In Egypt, the tourism industry has come to hold a position of great
importance lately. It is felt that it could help increase the national income. In
some European countries, tourism has brought in millions of dollars yearly,
although they lack the natural and historical attractions we have in Egypt. We
could, for instance, establish tourist villages for children on the Red Sea. We
could teach fishing, swimming, diving and sailing there. Another good idea
would be a village in the New Valley for horse riding. And what about villages
for people with health problems like rheumatism? The warm dry climate of
Aswan and Helwan would certainly help them get better.
Our tourist today wants efficient and friendly service. He would probably
prefer to try our samples of our local food rather than to eat the international
meals, which are served, in some places. It must also be remembered that most
tourists nowadays are seldom rich. Many of them are students or hardworking
employees. So what is needed is not expensive hotels but clean comfortable
places to sleep and eat in at reasonable prices. This, too, would encourage
Egyptians to travel more and more around their lovely country.
