我们来看一段相关的英文报道

The week-long National Day holiday has seen a tourist boom in many places of interest across China, as citizens spend their vacation out traveling.

In some top-rating scenic spots, tourists have complained about a surge in ticket prices. For rural residents, a single ticket could cost more than 20 percent of their travel expenses in a year. While in some other places, preferential prices or policies have been offered to attract more visitors.

十一黄金周期间，市民大举外出旅行，国内各地的许多著名景点都掀起旅游热潮。

有游客抱怨，一些热门景点门票价格上涨。对于农村居民来讲，一张门票花费可能超过他们一年差旅费用的20%。然而其他一些景点却推出了优惠的价格和政策，以吸引更多的游客。



【讲解】

文中的tourist boom就是“旅游热潮”的意思，其中boom用作名词，意为“繁荣；兴旺；暴涨”，如：consumer boom（消费增长），baby boom（生育高峰），economic boom（经济繁荣）等。

第三段中的preferential用作形容词，意为“优先的；特惠的”，如：Don't expect to get preferential treatment.（不要指望受到优待。）
