Directions:

旅程之“余”

As is subtly portrayed in the cartoon, two tourists are taking sightseeing on a small boat while discarding their picnic leftovers casually into a lake. And below the drawing, there is a topic which says: "after" the travel or "me" in the travel.

From the portrayal, we can conclude that the painter wants to convey such a message: a good many scenic spots are flooded with visitors, who spoil the beauty of nature by creating and leaving behind God-knows-how-much trash. On the one hand, tourism, as a multibillion-dollar business, is booming everywhere. On the other hand, tourism has exerted great pressure on the environment we are living in: water is polluted, the ecological system is disturbed, and natural resources have been excessively used.

Undoubtedly, tourism could not be banned in any country as it does help to shore up the economy in places which offer few sources of income. The significant point is that the unchecked growth of the travel business may render the development of an economy unsustainable.

參考譯文

如圖所示，兩名游客正在一艘小船上觀光，同時把野餐的剩余垃圾隨意丟入湖中。在圖畫下方，有個小標題寫明：“旅程之‘余’”。

從漫畫中，我們可以得出結論，畫家想要表達下述信息：成群的游客涌入很多景點，制造並丟棄了大量的垃圾，影響了大自然的美觀。一方面，旅游業作為一項數十億美元的產業，正在世界各地迅猛發展。另一方面，旅游業已經對我們生存的環境造成了巨大的壓力：水受到污染，生態平衡遭到破壞，自然資源被過度開發。

毫無疑問，由於在其他收入很少的地區，旅游業確實有助於發展經濟，因此任何國家都無法禁止旅游業。但重要的是旅游業毫無節制的發展可能使得經濟發展不可持續。
