These communities are often rural and economically struggling, and CBT gives them the opportunity to take full ownership of their area's individualized tourist industry as business owners, managers, service providers, and employees. Most importantly, it ensures that the economic benefits go directly towards local families. Surveys show that travelers are becoming more interested in sustainable travel trends and supporting small businesses and unique communities. American Express poll of travelers in Australia, Canada. India Japan, Mexico and the U.K, found that 68% plan to be more aware of sustainable travel companies, while 72% want to help improve tourism revenue (收入) in the local economies of the destinations they visit. CBT differs slightly from ecotourism and voluntourism.

CBT is often developed by the destination's local government but can also get assistance from non-profit organizations. other community members private funding, or even partnerships with travel companies.

阅读下列短文,从题中所给的 A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。Americans are drinking less milk today than they did 40 years ago. In fact, Americans are drinking about 40 percent less than they did in 1975. This decrease has led the United States dairy industry to explore new ways to get people to drink milk. One method it is testing: Help to set up coffee bars in US high schools. The schools prepare coffee drinks in different ways, but milk is always the main ingredient in lattes(拿铁咖啡). That is why Midwest Dairy is providing financial help for a coffee bar at a high school in the Fort Zumwalt, Missouri during the upcoming schoolyear. In exchange, the group will get data on how much milk is used for the lattes, as well as other information about food products with dairy. Dairy groups have provided money for high schools in many states. At a high school in North Dakota, for example, an endowment given by a dairy group helped pay for a coffee machine. The device makes lattes with about 0. 23 liters of milk each. The drinks used around 2 000 liters of milk this past school year. Not all high school coffee bars get money from dairy groups. Even then, the money may only cover a small amount of the costs. But school food operators say lattes give American teenagers another reason to stay on school grounds. While dairy is a good way to get calcium and vitamin D, it is not the only way to get such nutrients, says Doctor Natalie Muth. She is a childcare specialist and representative for the American Academy of Pediatrics. As for lattes, Muth says there are ways to persuade students to get the nutrients of milk without promoting caffeine use.
