INSTRUCTIONS: Read the paragraph and answer the questions that follow. New Kinds of Tourism                   Ideas about travel and tourism have changed a lot in recent years. There are several new categories of tourism: ecotourism, adventure tourism, and wellness tourism. Ecotourists want to visit beautiful and interesting natural sites, but they also want to be sure that their visit does not damage the environment. They do not want their visit to have a negative effect on precious natural resources, such as water and energy. Other tourists are looking for an adventure. The adventure could be a physical challenge, such as climbing a mountain or swimming across a river. For other adventure tourists, the perfect experience might be a bit less dangerous. Some take a vacation to learn about cooking with a famous chef. Others might stay with an artist and learn to draw or paint. Museums are also a good choice for tourists of all ages. Finally, some tourists want to do something that is beneficial to their health. On their vacations, these “wellness” tourists take exercise classes, eat healthy food, and leave their phones and computers at home. Of course, some people still appreciate more traditional choices, such as a trip to the beach or museums. However, there are now several new types of tourism that appeal to a wider range of tourists.   What is the controlling idea of the paragraph? Write it down.
