What do the Big Apple and Sin City have in common? According to a recent survey, they’re both among the hippest places in the world. In fact, New York City and Las Vegas are the two coolest cities in the US, tied for the No. 1 spot in annual measure of America’s Coolest Cities. New York has topped the list of coolest cities for three years running— it’s sharing the top spot for the very first time. (33) It isn’t only the country’s largest city; it’s the one with the most restaurants, museums, sports venues, bars and theatres-Few could deny that it generates buzz around the globe. (34) It turns out that what you think is cool may be influenced by whether there’s a ring on your finger. Of the single people polled, the largest percentage thought New York was the coolest city, but married people gave the title to Vegas. Times have been tough in Las Vegas, and the city is suffering a real estate crash that’s among the worst in the country. (35)But the entertainment resort still welcomes 36 million tourists per year because the city’s relaxed laws around gambling and other vices (邪恶行径) add to its sense of danger and excitement. Impressions about how hip a place is are tough to change. Most of the cities have seen their coolness ranking change little over the past four years. But five of our ten coolest cities—Las Vegas, Seattle, Chicago, Los Angeles and Miami—saw perceptions improve over last year.
33. What is the attraction of New York to the world’s tourists?
34. What may influence people’s evaluation of the coolest city according to the passage?
35. Why can Las Vegas attract more visitors than other American cities?

选项 A、Their financial conditions.
B、Their personal characters.
C、Their marital status.
D、Their love towards their spouses.

答案 C

解析 推理判断题。短文中间部分提到,人们认为哪座城市最酷或许会受到他们是否已婚的影响,接着解释说一项调查显示,单身人群中大多数认为纽约是最酷的城市,而大多数已婚人士认为最酷的城市是拉斯维加斯。由此可知,人们评价最酷城市的标准会受到婚姻状况的影响。
