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?

D、It has the best-developed highway.

答案B

解析 综合理解题。短文前半部分提到纽约已经连续三年被评为美国最酷的城市后,解释说纽约不仅是美国最大的城市,而且它的餐厅、博物馆、体育馆、酒吧和剧院的数量也是最多的,很少有人能否认纽约是全球焦点。由此可知,纽约吸引人的地方是它有很多文化和娱乐场所。
