In order to host the Olympics, a city must submit a proposal to the IOC. After all proposals have been submitted, the IOC votes. If no city is successful in gaining a majority in the first vote, the city with the fewest votes is eliminated, and voting continues with successive rounds until a majority winner is determined. Typically the Games are awarded several years in advance, allowing the winning city time to prepare for the Games.
In selecting the site of the Olympic Games, the IOC considers a number of factors, chief among them which city has, or promises to build, the best facilities, and which organizing committee seems most likely to stage the Games effectively. The IOC also considers which parts of the world have not yet hosted the Games. For instance, Tokyo, the host of the 1964 Summer Games, and Mexico City, the host of the 1968 Summer Games, were chosen in part to popularize the Olympic movement in Asia and in Latin America. Because of the growing importance of television worldwide, the IOC in recent years has also taken into account the host city’s time zone. Whenever the Games take place in the United States or Canada, for example, American television networks are willing to pay significantly higher amounts for television rights because they can broadcast popular events live in prime viewing hours.
Once the Games have been awarded, it is the responsibility of the local organizing committee— not the IOC or the NOC of the host city’s country—to finance them. This is often done with a portion of the Olympic television revenues and with corporate sponsorships, ticket sales, and other smaller revenue sources, such as commemorative postage stamps or proceeds from a national lottery. In many cases there is also direct government support.
Although many cities have achieved a financial profit by hosting the Games, the Olympics can be financially risky. When the proceeds from the Games were less than expected, the city was left with large debts. [br] According to the passage, one of the reasons for Tokyo to be the host of Olympics in 1964 may be _____.
选项
A、it’s a major city of Japan
B、it’s a famous city
C、it’s a city in Asia
D、it’s nice and cool in summer
答案
C
解析
第2段中东京获得1964奥运会主办权这个事实是用于支持上一句(第2句)的说法的,第2句指出奥运会选址还会考虑哪个地区从没举办过奥运会,结合第3句,即可推断C正确。A、B和D可能符合现实,但是文中并无相关依据。
