Last April, on a visit to the new Mall of America near Minneapolis, I carried with me a small book provided for the reporters by the public relations office. It included a variety of "fun facts" a-bout the mall, such as:140,000 hot dogs are sold each week, there are 10,000 full-time jobs, 44drawn weekly from 8Minneapolis Stadium(体育馆) had been. It was only a five-minute drive from the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport. With 4. 2 million square feet of floor space — twenty-two times the size of the average American shopping center — the Mall of America was the largest shopping and family recreation(娱乐)center under one roof in the United States.
I knew already that the Mall of America had been imagined by its designers, not merely as a marketplace, but as a national tourist attraction. Eleven thousand articles, the small book informed me, had been written about the mall. Four hundred trees had been planted in its gardens, $625 million had been spent to build it, and 350 stores were already in business. Three thousand bus tours were expected each year along with a half-million Canadian visitors and 200,000 Japanese tourists. Sales were expected to be at $650 million for 1993 and at $1 billion for 1996. Pop singers and film stars such as Janet Jackson and Arnold Schwarzenegger had visited the mall. It was five times larger than Red Square and it included 2. 3 miles of hallways and used almost twice as much steel as the Eiffel Tower. It was also home to the nation’s largest indoor park, called Knott’s Camp Snoopy.
We can infer from the text that______
选项
A、Japanese visitors are most welcome to the mall
B、Canadian visitors would spend $1 billion at the mall
C、Knott’s Camp Snoopy was next to the Mall of America
D、the Mall of America was designed to serve more than one purpose
答案
D
解析
推理题。答案在第二自然段第一句:the Mall of America的设计者设想该购物中心应该不仅仅是商场,也应该是一个全国性的旅游中心。可知它的设计不仅仅出于一种目的。
