The business didn’t interest him, however, so he became a【C3】_____legislator(立法者), founded a bank and went off to war.

By the late 1940s, Hilton’s list included the Town House in Beverly Hills and Chicago’s Palmer House, as well as【C7】_____nightclubs featuring A-list stars. He also expanded【C8】_____. And in 1949, he bought the "greatest of them all": New York City’s magnificent Waldorf-Astoria.

M)inherited N)internationally O)state [br] 【C3】
选项
答案
