Yet across the Caribbean, revenue from tourism represents about 16 percent of gross domestic product, and many island nations, such as the Bahamas, Barbados and Antigua, generate at least a third of their GDP from visitors. For most of the Caribbean, touris

30、ts“ dollars, euros and pesos (比索) are the No. 1 source of foreign investment. F.

31、e visitor, according to international planners and Haitian officials.

32、on Jacmel as a stand-alone destination, meaning tourists would not land in the disordered, dangerous, poor capital, Port-au-Prince, but arrive directly here via air or boat. H. With development aid from banks and donor nations, the government of former carnival singer and current President Michel Ma

33、rtelly is planning to extend the airport runway at Jacmel so it can accommodate small jets that would shuttle from Miami and Fort Lauderdale, Fla.; Puerto Rico; and Guadeloupe. The deserted port is also scheduled for restoration to allow big cruise ships to dock. I. In the late 1800s, Jacmel was an

34、important Caribbean crossroads in Haitithen called the “Pearl of the Antilles“and its downtown still harbors the Creole architecture of iron balconies and shuttered warehouses for coffee and orange peel.

35、t carnivals in the Caribbean, as well as a music festival and a film festival, now struggling to gain promotion again after the 2010 earthquake. J. Donna Karan knows Jacmel well; she shot her fall catalog at the Hotel Florita. The New Yorker gamely jumped into the bed of a small truck for a tour of

36、town. It stopped at the Manoir Alexandre, once the most prominent building in the city and now a ruin that is slowly being restored by Leon Paul, a Haitian American orthopedic surgeon from New York.

43、ancient Egyptian city of Tell el-Amarna, a study has found. Tell el-Amarna was the capital of ancient Egypt during the reign of the pharaoh (法老) Akhenaten, who abandoned most of Egypt“s old gods in favor of the Aten sun disk and brought in a new and more expressive style of art. Akhenaten, who ruled

44、 Egypt between 1379 and 1362 BC, built and lived in Tell el-Amarna in central Egypt for 15 years. The city was largely abandoned shortly after his death and the ascendance of the famous boy King Tutankhamun to the throne. Studies on the remains of ordinary ancient Egyptians in a cemetery in Tell el-

45、Amarna showed that many of them suffered from anemia (贫血症), fractured bones, stunted growth and high juvenile mortality rates, according to professors Barry Kemp and Jerome Rose, who led the research. Rose, a professor of anthropology (人类学) in the University of Arkansas in the United States, said ad

46、ults buried in the cemetery were probably brought there from other parts of Egypt. “This means that we have a period of deprivation in Egypt prior to the Amarna phase. So maybe things were not so good for the average Egyptian and maybe Akhenaten said we have to change to make things better,“ he said

47、. Kemp, director of the Amarna Project which seeks in part to increase public knowledge of Tell el-Amarna and surrounding region, said little attention has been given to the cemeteries of ordinary ancient Egyptians. Rose displayed pictures showing spinal (脊柱的) injuries among teenagers, probably beca

48、use of accidents during construction work to build the city. The study showed that anemia ran at 74 percent among children and teenagers, and at 44 percent among adults, Rose said. The average height of men was 159cm (5 feet 2 inches) and 153cm among women. “Adult heights are used as an indicator fo

49、r overall standard of living,“ he said. “Short statures (身材) reflect a diet deficient in protein. People were not growing to their full potential.“（分数：71.00）(1).What is the findings of the study mentioned in the passage?（分数：14.20）A.The ancient Tell el-Amarna was famous for its art records.B.The artistic exhibition of ancient Tell el-Amarna was trustworthy.C.The art records of Tell el-Amarna showed ancient Egyptians“ real life.D.Life was really tough for average Egyptians in ancient Tell el-Amarn
