2005 年 12 月大学英语四级考试真题 1 ．名校校园正成为旅游 新热点 2 ．校园是否应对游客开 放，人们看法不同 3 ．我认为 …… Should the University Campus Be Open to Tourist

In recent years, tourists have frequently been seen walking around and taking photos on university campuses, especially in some famous universities, such as Beijing University and Qinghua University. This so-called “ Academic Tourism ” is becoming increasingly popular and is particularly attractive to high school students and their eager parents, who believe that in doing so, their children will be inspired to study harder.

There has been much heated discussion in the media on whether or not the universities should be open to tourists. Some hold that by opening the universities campus for touring, “ Academic Tourism ” will create a closer relationship between the universities and the public, resulting in a significant increase in the popularity of the university itself. But others, by contrast, insist that crowds of tourists will inevitably disturb the learning environment on campus.

In my opinion, the universities should welcome tourists to their campuses. This “ Academic Tourism ” will serve the good of society, as well as the university. In a word, it is time we got rid of the idea of reserving university campuses for only education. In my opinion, the universities should welcome tourists to their campuses.
