Which of the following is NOT showing an increase this year?
A record number of tourists visited the city this year, and tourist spending appears to have increased. Hotel occupancy rates are likely to exceed the world average.
The latest issue of the Tourist Association’s Travel Bulletin says that last year’s record arrivals figure of 2.5 million was passed last month. During the month, traditionally the peak tourist period of the year, hotels were reporting an 87 per cent plus occupancy rate.
The Bulletin notes an increased tendency this year for people to visit the city on holiday. Last year, 65 per cent of the visitors came for holidays while 21 per cent were on business. "This year’s figures so far are showing a swing in favour of more vacation travellers plus an increase in the arrivals for meetings and conferences," the Bulletin reports.
Total tourist expenditure was running about 10 per cent higher earlier this year over the same period last year. Visitors spent 11 million yuan last year, a substantial increase over the previous year. Money spent on shopping, however -- the largest single visitor expenditure -- dropped slightly in the first half of the year, but spending on items suchas tours, dining and entertainment increased. Nevertheless, money spent by tourists in shops still accounted for 60 per cent of total tourist expenditure. The rest was spent mainly on hotel accommodation and meals.
选项
A、There are fewer business travellers.
B、There are more business travellers.
C、The number remains the same as last year’s.
D、It’s not mentioned in the passage.
答案
B
解析
本题测试对细节内容的理解和推理能力。根据文中的相关信息“an increase in the arrivals for meetings and conferences”,可知因开会而来的游客也呈上升状态,因此正确答案为B。
