21、   Traveling is a great thing to do. It helps us learn about different people and different places. Some people travel because they want to see nature. Others travel because they want to make friends and try great food. Of course, a lot of tourists are interested in traditional(传统的)culture.

Tourism can be very good for traditional cultures. This is because when people travel to another country, they often want to learn more about that country’s traditions, such as music, food, and history. Therefore, the local(当地的) people in that country will keep their traditional culture alive. They will wear traditional clothing and sell traditional food. They will also have shown for tourists. These shows can be dances, concerts, plays, or something else.

Tourism also help people respect(尊敬) each other. If you understand another culture well, you will probably respect that culture much more. You will probably want to protect that culture as well.

However, tourism isn’t always good for traditional culture. A problem is that tourists can interfere with the local people’s lives. For example, sometimes tourists come to watch local people praying in temples(庙宇). While the local people pray, tourists take photos and make noise. This often bothers the local people. Sometimes tourists also damage(破坏) local places. If 500 people enter an ancient temple every day, they might damage that temple.
