湖南省长沙市华益中学2023-2024学年九年级上学期第三次月考英语试题
Recently, a tourist said in a video that there was no hot water on the Huangshan Mountain. Some tourists also complained(抱怨) online that they failed to get hot water for cooking instant noodles since it was banned(禁止) by the scenic area. For a time, "Why doesn't the Huangshan Scenic Area provide hot water for instant noodles?" became a hot topic on the Internet. Many people thought this rule was unreasonable.
Later, the staff of the Huangshan Scenic Area(景区) replied to the question: In order to protect the animals, plants and environment of the Huangshan Mountain, tourists are advised not to eat instant noodles in the area.
Before the rule was made, leftovers(残羹) and packaging materials from instant noodles were often found throwing in the scenic area. These seriously harm the soil and plants. In addition, animals, such as squirrels and birds, may eat these leftovers by mistake, which poses a threat(威胁) to their health.
In fact, eating instant noodles is not banned on the mountain but it is not encouraged, according to a leader of the scenic area. Actually, the ban on sales of instant noodles on the mountain was put in place in 2006.
The staff at the scenic area said, "Tourists can get hot water at the rest area in the scenic area. They are also allowed to bring their own food products such as bread and self-heating meals. For those who do not bring food, the scenic area has supermarkets and restaurants."
This action quickly received understanding and support from the public. "This is necessary. We should follow the rule while enjoying the beauty of nature," one tourist shared his opinion online. "I support the rule, and we should all play a part in protecting the environment."
