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、Because there are much more funny entertainment places.
B、Because it has the more relaxed policy towards vices.
C、Because it has not been suffering any real estate crash.
D、Because it is the strongest city in the United States.
答案
B
解析
目的原因题。短文提到,拉斯维加斯这个娱乐胜地每年吸引着3 600万名游客,这是因为这个城市对赌博和其他邪恶行径的宽松的法律增添了其危险和刺激的色彩。由此可知,拉斯维加斯能吸引更多的游客是因为其有着对邪恶行径更为宽松的政策环境。
