As fans enjoy football’s(soccer’s)month-long World Cup, Brazilian authorities are pleased over the boost they say the tournament is giving the country’s economy. However, independent analysts who study such events are less enthusiastic. The 2014 World Cup has injected an estimated $15 billion into the Brazilian economy and created many jobs.
Regarding the human legacy, the numbers are extraordinary: the creation of one million jobs in the country due to this great event, one million jobs or 15 percent of all the jobs created this year in Brazil.
The government has invested $11 billion in stadiums and infrastructure and another $2 billion in security. It is expected to spend billions more preparing for the 2016 Olympic games in Rio.
But an analyst who studies such great events, Architecture and Urbanism Professor at Rio de Janeiro’ s Fluminense Federal University, Chris Gaffney, believes these figures are exaggerated. "I don’t think that they’ve invested enough money to create those kinds of permanent jobs. In the scale of the Brazilian economy, we ’re not looking at that much money being invested. It’s 30 billion dollars invested in a $1 trillion economy."
Another expert, Lisa Delpy Neirotti of George Washington University’ s business school in the United States, says the real economic benefits of such events are less tangible and more long-term. "There’s a lot of transfer of knowledge," she said. "People are learning more about hospitality. There’s also the broadcast center where they’re being trained in how to use technology. And so I think it’ s in the media sector, a lot in the hospitality industry and also in licensing and merchandizing, retail." She said. "Yes, there’ s been a lot of money spent here but we have to realize that the infrastructure that they’ve built up around the World Cup is something that will last and it stays in the country."
Other analysts say the Cup may help the Brazilian economy but it also boosts inflation and public debt. Less than half of the Brazilians in a recent poll believed that hosting the Cup was a good idea. And there have been many demonstrations against the Cup, though they have declined since the tournament began.
Nevertheless, many Brazilians are proud to host the World Cup and the 600,000 foreign visitors it brings. The hope is that they will spread the good word about Brazil when they return home. [br] Which of the following can not be inferred from "independent analysts who study such events are less enthusiastic"(Para.l)?
选项
A、They don’t trust the authorities’ words.
B、The tournament is not a good thing for Brazil.
C、The tournament does not bring such a boost as the authorities thought.
D、The tournament also has some negative influence.
答案
B
解析
推断题。本题要我们从“但是研究这一事件的私人分析家却不那么积极乐观”这一句话推断。这句话的实际意思就是他们不相信实际情况像政府所说的.世界杯产生的效益没有那么好,也存在问题。A项讲的是他们不相信当局的话。可以推断出。C讲的是世界杯没有像当局说的那样带来这么大经济刺激。也可以推断出。D项讲世界杯也有不好的影响,也可以推断出。B世界杯对巴西来说不是好事。这太绝对了,无法推断出。因此,正确答案是B。
