It is also a kind of psychological tendency of the individuals and refers to the six elements of tourism, food, lodge, traffic, travel, shopping and entertainment. Preference is an important factor influencing the decision-making of tourists. Many domestic and foreign papers on patterns of tourists behavior regard the formation of preferences as the main process before the decision-making of tourists. Visitor preferences basically reflect the needs of tourists. Understanding the preferences of tourists is to understand the needs of tourists. Not only conducive to predict people's tourist behavior, but also help the marketing personnel to develop tourists’ favorite tourism products. According to statistics, Hainan received 49.772 million tourists overnight in tourism in 2016, of which 98.6% were domestic overnight tourists. Hainan's tourism revenue totaled 67.21 billion yuan, of which domestic tourists accounted for more Foundation:National Key Technology Research and Development Program of theMinistry of Science and Technology of China(2015BAH55F04) ; International Science and technology cooperation project of Ministry of science and technology(2014DFA13140); National Natural Science Foundation of China (51164008) E-mail: [email protected] 1 Linfeng Dong: professor, Tourism College of Hainan University, Haikou, 570228, China 2 Chenglin Zhang: postgraduate, Tourism College of Hainan University, Haikou, 570228, China 3 Haoyu Wang: postgraduate, Tourism College of Hainan University, Haikou, 570228, China Symposium on Service Innovation in Big Data Area than 90% of total tourism revenue. This shows that Hainan's domestic tourists account for the overwhelming share. Understanding their preferences and studying the laws will help us develop the tourism products in Hainan from the perspective of tourists and promote the sustainable development of tourism in Hainan on the basis of grasping the preferences of tourists. Baidu index platform which recorded the search data of a large number of Internet users is one of the most important network statistical analysis tools in recent years. It can directly and objectively reflect the social hot spots, interest and demand of Internet users in any particular period. Therefore, based on Baidu index, this paper tries to study the tourism preferences of these tourists, and gives some suggestions for the development of Hainan tourism products in the future. 2 Baidu search keywords Keywords searching means users use the Internet to search relevant information, the word entered in the search engine is the direct reflection of the user's attention to the information. Such as "Hainan tourist attractions", "Hainan cuisine" and so on. Baidu index is a data statistics and sharing platform based on massive Internet users' behavior data provided by Baidu. It can count the amount of search for a keyword in a specific period in Baidu, as well as in a period of time, the network of people in an object or some aspects of the trend of concern. It can count the number of searches of keywords in Baidu during a specific period of time, and the trend of the Internet users focus on an object or a certain aspect. In the short term, generally, tourists use the searching engines to obtain some information about the target objects of them before they set out. The search index of Baidu reflects the capacity of searching and the preference of tourist’s behaviour. In order to research the preference of tourist’s, firstly, selecting the key words. These key words can represent some aspects of the tourist’s preference. According to the descending, and the distribution is tabled as below: Table 1. Hainan tourism related keyword search results Mean value of weekly Tourists preference keywords search index Hainan cuisine 230 dietary preference Characteristic snacks in Hainan 156 accommodation Hainan Hotel 218 preference Self-driving tour in Hainan 193 tour-style preference Hainan free-walk 177 tourism preference Hainan tourist attractions 385 Symposium on Service Innovation in Big Data Area Hainan specialties 708 tourism merchandise preference Hainan duty-free shop 387 tourism entertainment —— —— preferences It can be seen from above , the search term for tourists is divided into food, living, walking, shopping, shopping and entertainment. Therefore, we start from these categories when selecting keywords. First of all, six categories of food preferences, accommodation preferences, tourist preferences, tourist attractions, tourism commodities preferences and tourism entertainment preferences were identified. Second, identify key words from these categories. When determine a variety of keywords, following these principles: 1. Within the scope of indexing keywords in Baidu index. 2. The key words were closely related to the six categories of tourist preferences. 3. Refer to the key words selected in previous document. 4. Consider the habits of the domestic tourists to search. According to the above principles, consider the search of relevant keywords in Hainan. Selected "food in Hainan", "Hainan hotel", "independent traveling Hainan" , "self-driving tours in Hainan", "tourist attractions in Hainan," Hainan specialty ", "Hainan duty-free shops" as keywords. The index of Baidu index was retrieved in turn to determine the average weekly index of the weekly search index and the first ten related search terms closely linked to these keywords from January 2017 to October 2017.However, there are no related keywords to represent the tourism entertainment project preference in the actual retrieval process. Therefore, this article will analysis for Hainan tourist preference specifically from these five categories of diet preferences, accommodation preferences, tourism modes preferences, preference of tourist attractions and tourist merchandise preference. 3 Analysis of Hainan domestic tourists preference 3.1 Dietary preference Table 2.

Since China has a vast territory, different regions formed a variety of regional cultures with different natural environments and era evolutions. Historical and cultural towns and villages not only exist as individual entities, but also as integrated urban and rural settlements and regional cultures. This paper presents the methodologies for the protection of historical towns and villages in the phase of systematic planning in Hainan Province. The research begin with looking at Hainan’s regional culture, adopting the research method of anthropology and regional heritage to retrace the culture of Hainan’s towns and villages, analysing the status quo, and on this basis, building a framework of Hainan historical towns and villages in promotion of its rational protection and development. Keywords: historical and cultural towns and villages, land use, Meso-scale space unit, non-motor- vehicle travel. 1 INTRODUCTION Hainan is a tropical island in southern China with beautiful scenery; its special natural environment has created an exotic culture. Today, most people see Hainan as an international scenic spot; however, less attention is paid to Hainan’s culture and traditions, which, to some extent, results in a lack of cultural construction. Historical and cultural villages and towns are important space carriers of Hainan culture; therefore, the construction of provincial-level historical and cultural towns and villages to protect the historical and cultural heritage of Hainan is essential.

Frequent outbreaks of mangrove pests have threatened the fragile mangrove ecosystem in China and the sustainable utilization of mangrove resources. The understanding of mangrove pests as well as a fundamental knowledge of insect diversity in mangrove forests in China has been hindered by the difficulty of morphological species delimitation because captured insect specimens are either larvae or incompletely-preserved adults. DNA barcoding technology uses only a small amount of DNA to conduct species identification.
