阅读理解 More perhaps than any other European nation, the Swiss have got used to looking after foreign travelers. As early as the 18th century, wealthy French, Germans and Italians were treating the country as an amusement center while, in the 19th century, it became the major holiday playground for the British nobles. Today, it attracts visitors from all over the world. The Swiss are clear about the importance of tourism to their economy, which makes up about eight percent of the Gross Domestic Product, and helps industry greatly. Managers of hotels from all over the world go to Switzerland to learn how to do the job, and a high standard can be expected from the great majority of the country’s hotels, most of which are small and pride themselves on personalized service. Public transport is the best in Europe. Both the Swiss Federal railways and the private railways are fully electric-powered, and the total network consists of about 5,000 kilometers of track. Under the Fly Baggage system passengers can check luggage in at 116 railway stations and have it automatically transferred to their flight. The national highway system is equally well planned, and the mountain roads offer views of some of the country’s most breathtaking scenery. Also serving the mountains is an effective system of railways and cable ways, while more than 160 passenger cars cross the lakes and rivers. Hiking in the mountains is equally popular with Swiss nationals and foreign visitors. For those who want to view the country from a great height without having to climb the mountain themselves, it is always possible to take in the view from a balloon.1.Compared with other European countries, Switzerland ________.A.places more importance on entertainmentB.thinks more about foreign travelersC.has more convenient public transportD.has more five-star hotels2.According to the passage, Switzerland is now visited by ________.A.wealthy French people B.rich Germans and ItaliansC.British nobles D.people from various countries3.According to the passage we learn that ________.A.most of the hotels in Switzerland are bigB.all the hotels in Switzerland offer exactly the same serviceC.most of the hotels in Switzerland offer first class serviceD.the hotels in Switzerland are accustomed to learning from the rest of the world4.The Fly Rail Baggage system is a service to transport your luggage between the railway station and ________.
