The shores of this resort city are usually packed during the holiday season. But after a [1]Russian plane that had taken off from here crashed in late October, killing all 224 people on board in an apparent terrorist attack, business has fallen into decay.
    Business owners say most of their income used to come from Russian and British tourists. But both countries have suspended direct flights to Sharm el-Sheikh.
    Officials are actively courting tourists from Saudi Arabia and other wealthy Arab countries. But workers say the increase in business from the Gulf has not been nearly enough to make up for their losses.
    [2]Egyptian tourists, who now appear to make up the bulk of the visitors in Sharm el-Sheikh, say fear may be keeping people away, but daily life for vacationers has not changed.
    1.Why does Egypt’s tourism turn worse?
    2.Who are the main tourists in Sharm el-Sheikh now?
选项 A、Because the holiday has gone.
B、Because a horror attack happened.
C、Because few flights fly to Egypt.
D、Because wealthy tourists may be caught.
答案 B
解析 题目问的是埃及旅游业衰败的原因。新闻中提到，去年10月末，一架俄客机遭恐怖袭击，机组224人全部遇难，旅游市场因此一落千丈(business has fallen into decay)。所以B项“因为遭受了恐怖袭击”为止确答案。
①选项均已Because开头，可判断本题询问原因。
②新闻开篇确实提到假日时当地旅游业兴旺，接着说自从遭遇恐怖袭击以来旅游业开始衰落。A项利用原词holiday作干扰。新闻提到俄罗斯和英国均暂停了前往Sharm el-Sheikh的航班，但这不能说几乎没有航班到埃及，C项推断过度。D项利用caught和录音court语音相同制造干扰，新闻中的courting意为“追求，吸引”，是说埃及官方正在吸引沙特和其他阿拉伯富国的游客。D项“因为有钱的游客可能会被抓”错误。
