Tourism currently makes up 9% of the country\u2019s gross domestic product, and is the country\u2019s largest export sector. Unlike other export sectors, which make products and then sell them overseas, tourism brings its customers to New Zealand. The product is the country itself &#8211; the people, the places and the experiences. In 1999, Tourism New Zealand launched a campaign to communicate a new brand position to the world. The campaign focused on New Zealand\u2019s scenic beauty, exhilarating outdoor activities and authentic Maori culture, and it made New Zealand one of the strongest national brands in the world.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">A key feature of the campaign was the website www.newzealand.com, which provided potential visitors to New Zealand with a single gateway to everything the destination had to offer. The heart of the website was a database of tourism services operators, both those based in New Zealand and those based abroad which offered tourism services to the country. Any tourism-related business could be listed by filling in a simple form. This meant that even the smallest bed and breakfast address or specialist activity provider could gain a web presence with access to an audience of long-haul visitors. In addition, because participating businesses were able to update the details they gave on a regular basis, the information provided remained accurate. And to maintain and improve standards, Tourism New Zealand organised a scheme whereby organisations appearing on the website underwent an independent evaluation against a set of agreed national standards of quality. As part of this, the effect of each business on the environment was considered.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">To communicate the New Zealand experience, the site also carried features relating to famous people and places. One of the most popular was an interview with former New Zealand All Blacks rugby captain Tana Umaga. Another feature that attracted a lot of attention was an interactive journey through a number of the locations chosen for blockbuster films which had made use of New Zealand\u2019s stunning scenery as a backdrop. As the site developed, additional features were added to help independent travellers devise their own customised itineraries. To make it easier to plan motoring holidays, the site catalogued the most popular driving routes in the country, highlighting different routes according to the season and indicating distances and times.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Later a Travel Planner feature was added, which allowed visitors to click and \u2018bookmark\u2019 : paces or attractions they were interested in, and then view the results on a map. The Travel Planner offered suggested routes and public transport options between the chosen locations. There were also links to accommodation in the area. By registering with the website, users could save their Travel Plan and return to it later, or print it out take on the visit. The website also had a \u2018Your Words\u2019 section where anyone could submit a blog of their New Zealand travels for possible inclusion on the website.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The Tourism New Zealand website won two Webby awards for online achievement and innovation. More importantly perhaps, the growth of tourism to New Zealand was impressive. Overall tourism expenditure increased by an average of 6.9% per year between 1999 and 2004. From Britain, visits to New Zealand grew at an average annual rate of 13% between 2002 and 2006, compared to a rate of 4% overall for British visits abroad.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The website was set up to allow both individuals and travel organisations to create itieraries and travel packages to suit their own needs and interests. On the website, visitors can search for activities not solely by geographical location, but also by the particular nature of the activity. This is important as research shows that activities are the key driver of visitor satisfaction, contributing 74% to visitor satisfaction, while transport and accommodation account for the remaining 26%. The more activities that visitors undertake, the more satisfied they will be. It has also been found that visitors enjoy cultural activities most when they are interactive, such as visiting a marae (meeting ground) to learn about traditional Maori life. Many long-haul travellers enjoy such earning experiences, which provide them with stories to take home to their friends and family. In addition, it appears that visitors to New Zealand don\u2019t want to be \u2018one of the crowd\u2019 and find activities that involve only a few people more special and meaningful.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">It could be argued that New Zealand is not a typical destination. New Zealand is a small country with a visitor economy composed mainly of small businesses. It is generally perceived as a safe English-speaking country with a reliable transport infrastructure. Because of the long-haul flight, most visitors stay for longer (average 20 days) and want to see as much of the country as possible on what is often seen as a once-in-a-lifetime visit. However, the underlying lessons apply anywhere-the effectiveness of a strong brand, a strategy based on unique experiences and a comprehensive and user-friendly website.<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong><u>Questions 1-7<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Complete the able below.\u00a0 Choose

pages.<\/span><\/p><h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Why being bored is stimulating \u2013 and useful too<\/span><\/strong><\/h3><p style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>A<\/strong> <\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">The most common of emotions is turning out to be more interesting than A We all know how it feels &#8211; it\u2019s impossible to keep your mind on anything, time stretches out, and all the things you could do seem equally unlikely to make you feel better. But defining boredom so that it can be studied in the lab has proved difficult. For a start, it can include a lot of other mental states, such as frustration, apathy, depression and indifference. There isn\u2019t even agreement over whether Boredom is always a low-energy, flat kind of emotion or whether feeling agitated and restless counts as boredom, too. In his book, Boredom: A Lively History, Peter Toohey at the University of Calgary, Canada, compares it to disgust &#8211; an emotion that motivates us to stay away from certain situations. \u2018If disgust protects humans from infection, boredom may protect them from \u201cinfectious&#8221; social situations,\u2019 he suggests.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong>B<\/strong> <\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">By asking people about their experiences of boredom, Thomas Goetz and his team at the University of Konstanz in Germany have recently identified five distinct types: indifferent, calibrating, searching, reactant and apathetic. These can be plotted on two axes &#8211; one running left to right, which measures low to high arousal, and the other from top to bottom, which measures how positive or negative the feeling is. Intriguingly, Goetz has found that while people experience all kinds of boredom, they tend to specialise in one. Of the five types, the most damaging is \u2018reactant\u2019 boredom with its explosive combination of high arousal and negative emotion. The most useful is what Goetz calls \u2018indifferent\u2019 boredom: someone isn\u2019t engaged in anything satisfying but still feels relaxed and calm. However, it remains to be seen whether there are any character traits that predict the kind of boredom each of us might be prone to.<\/span><\/p><p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">C <\/span><\/strong><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Psychologist Sandi Mann at the University of Central Lancashire, UK, goes further. All emotions are there for a reason, including boredom,\u2019 she says Mann has found that being bored makes us more creative. \u2018We&#8217;re all afraid of being bored but in actual fact it can lead to all kinds of amazing things,\u2019 she says. In experiments published last year, Mann found that people who had been made to feel bored by copying numbers out of the phone book for 15 minutes came up with more creative ideas about how to use a polystyrene cup than a control group. Mann concluded that a passive, boring activity is best for creativity because it allows the mind to wander. In fact, she goes so far as to suggest that we should seek out more boredom in our lives.<\/span><\/p><p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">D <\/span><\/strong><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Psychologist John Eastwood at York University in Toronto, Canada isn\u2019t convinced. \u2018If you are in a state of mind-wandering you are not bored,\u2019 he says. \u2018In my view, by definition boredom is an undesirable state.\u2019 That doesn&#8217;t necessarily mean that it isn\u2019t adaptive, he adds. &#8216;Pain is adaptive &#8211; if we didn\u2019t have physical pain, bad things would happen to us. Does that mean that we should actively cause pain? No. But even if boredom has evolved to help us survive, it can still be toxic if allowed to fester.\u2019 For Eastwood, the central feature of boredom is a failure to put our \u2018attention system\u2019 into gear. This causes an inability to focus on anything, which makes time seem to go painfully slowly. What&#8217;s more, your efforts to improve the situation can end up making you feel worse. \u2018People try to connect with the world and if they are not successful there\u2019s that frustration and irritability,\u2019 he says. Perhaps most worryingly, says Eastwood, repeatedly failing to engage attention can lead to a state where we don\u2019t know what to do any more, and no longer care.<\/span><\/p><p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">E <\/span><\/strong><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Eastwood\u2019s team is now trying to explore why the attention system fails. It\u2019s early days but they think that at least some of it comes down to personality. Boredom proneness has been linked with a variety of traits. People who are motivated by pleasure seem to suffer particularly badly. Other personality traits, such as curiosity, are associated with a high boredom threshold. More evidence that boredom has detrimental effects comes from studies of people who are more or less prone to boredom. It seems those who bore easily face poorer prospects in education, their career and even life in general. But of course, boredom itself cannot kill -it\u2019s the things we do to deal with it that may put us in danger. What can we do to alleviate it before it comes to that? Goetz\u2019s group has one suggestion. Working with teenagers, they found that those who \u2018approach\u2019 a boring situation &#8211; in other words, see that it\u2019s boring and get stuck in anyway &#8211; report less boredom than those who try to avoid it by using snacks, TV or social media for distraction.<\/span><\/p><p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">F <\/span><\/strong><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Psychologist Francoise Wemelsfelder speculates that our over-connected lifestyles might even be a new source of boredom. \u2018In modern human society there is a lot of overstimulation but still a lot of problems finding meaning,\u2019 she says. So instead of seeking yet more mental stimulation, perhaps we should leave our phones alone, and use boredom to motivate us to engage with the world in a more meaningful way.<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><strong><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Questions 14-19<\/span><\/strong><br \/><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Reading Passage 2 has six paragraphs, A-F.

Classical music by an artificial composer has had audiences enraptured, and even tricked them into believing a human was behind the score. Artworks painted by a robot have sold for thousands of dollars and been hung in prestigious galleries. And software has been built which creates art that could not have been imagined by the programmer.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Human beings are the only species to perform sophisticated creative acts regularly.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">If we can break this process down into computer code, where does that leave human creativity? This is a question at the very core of humanity,\u2019 says Geraint Wiggins, a computational creativity researcher at Goldsmiths, University of London. \u2018It scares a lot of people. They are worried that it is taking something special away from what it means to be human.\u2019<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">To some extent, we are all familiar with computerised art. The question is: where does the work of the artist stop and the creativity of the computer begin? Consider one of the oldest machine artists, Aaron, a robot that has had paintings exhibited in London&#8217;s Tate Modern and the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Aaron can pick up a paintbrush and paint on canvas on its own. Impressive perhaps, but it is still little more than a tool to realise the programmer\u2019s own creative ideas.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Simon Colton, the designer of the Painting Fool, is keen to make sure his creation doesn\u2019t attract the same criticism. Unlike earlier \u2018artists\u2019 such as Aaron, the Painting Fool only needs minimal direction and can come up with its own concepts by going online for material. The software runs its own web searches and trawls through social media sites. It is now beginning to display a kind of imagination too, creating pictures from scratch. One of its original works is a series of fuzzy landscapes, depicting trees and sky. While some might say they have a mechanical look, Colton argues that such reactions arise from people\u2019s double standards towards software-produced and human-produced art. After all, he says, consider that the Painting Fool painted the landscapes without referring to a photo. \u2018If a child painted a new scene from its head, you\u2019d say it has a certain level of imagination,\u2019 he points out. The same should be true of a machine.\u2019 Software bugs can also lead to unexpected results. Some of the Painting Fool\u2019s paintings of a chair came out in black and white, thanks to a technical glitch. This gives the work an eerie, ghostlike quality. Human artists like the renowned Ellsworth Kelly are lauded for limiting their colour palette &#8211; so why should computers be any different?<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Researchers like Colton don&#8217;t believe it is right to measure machine creativity directly to that of humans who have had millennia to develop our skills&#8217;. Others, though, are fascinated by the prospect that a computer might create something as original and subtle as our best artists So far, only one has come close. Composer David Cope invented a program called Experiments in Musical Intelligence, or EMI, Not only did EMI create compositions in Cope s style, but also that of the most revered classical composers, including Bach, Chopin and Mozart. Audiences were moved to tears, and EMI even fooled classical music experts into thinking they were hearing genuine Bach. Not everyone was impressed however. Some, such as Wiggins, have blasted Cope&#8217;s work as pseudoscience, and condemned him for his deliberately vague explanation of how the software worked. Meanwhile. Douglas Hofstadter of Indiana University said EMI created replicas which still rely completely on the original artist\u2019s creative impulses, When audiences found out the truth they were often outraged with Cope, and one music lover even tried to punch him. Amid such controversy, Cope destroyed EMI&#8217;s vital databases.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">But why did so many people love the music, yet recoil when they discovered how it was composed? A study by computer scientist David Moffat of Glasgow Caledonian University provides a clue. He asked both expert musicians and non-experts to assess six compositions. The participants weren&#8217;t told beforehand whether the tunes were composed by humans or computers, but were asked to guess, and then rate how much they liked each one. People who thought the composer was a computer tended to dislike the piece more than those who believed it was human. This was true even among the experts, who might have been expected to be more objective in their analyses.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Where does this prejudice come from? Paul Bloom of Yale University has a suggestion: he reckons part of the pleasure we get from art stems from the creative process behind the work. This can give it an \u2018irresistible essence\u2019, says Bloom. Meanwhile, experiments by Justin Kruger of New York University have shown that people s enjoyment of an artwork increases if they think more time and effort was needed to create it. Similarly, Colton thinks that when people experience art, they wonder what the artist might have been thinking or what the artist is trying to tell them. It seems obvious, therefore, that with computers producing art, this speculation is cut short &#8211; there&#8217;s nothing to explore. But as technology becomes increasingly complex, finding those greater depths in computer art could become possible. This is precisely why Colton asks the Painting Fool to tap into online social networks for its inspiration: hopefully this way it will choose themes that will already be meaningful to us.<\/span><\/p><p>\u00a0<\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><strong><u>Questions 27-31<\/u><\/strong><\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"color: #000000;\">Choose the correct letter, <strong>A, B, C <\/strong>or<strong> D<\/strong>.
