六、阅读表达。(2025·江苏扬州期中)
阅读短文,回答短文后的五个问题。
Tourism is causing damage(损坏) to many cultural relics(遗迹). To better protect them, grotto(洞穴) temple workers have been asked to do research and decide how many daily visitors they can safely receive.
Causes of the damage
Tourists' poor behaviour like dropping litter around can lead to problems and damage relics.
Over many centuries, the ancient rocks that make up these grottoes slowly corrode(侵蚀) because of the acidic(酸性的) content of air, water and microorganisms(微生物). But when they are open to the public, the corrosion process speeds up.
According to a study by China University of Geosciences, the carbon dioxide(二氧化碳) that visitors breathe out has made the air more acidic at the Longmen Grottoes. At the Mogao Grottoes in Gansu, researchers found that visitors often bring in microorganisms. Even their body heat can increase the caves' temperature. All of these things can harm the relics inside.
Online tours offer the other choice
To keep a balance between protecting relics and educating the public, some grotto sites have created their own digital(数字化的) museums.
