If you could go on vacation as anyone you wanted, who would you choose? Joel Stain decided he’d make a great Ricky Martin. Welcome to Fantasy Island.
It’s an offer worthy of Mr. Roarke: Wyndham El San Juan Hotel & Casino, in Puerto Rico, has developed a three-night package in which you check in as a Celebrity.
The hotel puts no constraints on which name you choose, though President Clinton, Dracula, and Boy George have all been rejected.(Two men were permitted to come as Rodgers and Hart, so I’m not sure what the problem with George was.)I almost picked someone I admired, until I realized that a weekend as Wallace Shawn might not be a Dionysian romp.
Instead I chose Ricky Martin, because he’s big in Puerto Rico, and my girlfriend chose Jennifer Lopez, because I told her to.(It seemed more legitimate than when I make her pretend to be Jennifer Lopez at home.)I didn’t know much about Martin, so on the flight down I read ’ Entertainment Weekly’. I wasn’t happy about what I found out, and I don’t mean the meditation stuff.
Upon landing we were greeted by a hotel publicist and a driver, each holding a piece of paper that read Mr. Ricky Martin and Ms. Jennifer Lopez. The pomp was so unimpressive that no one at the Airport expected Ricky and J. Lo. The lack of a crowd was a lucky break, since the hotel had also sent a photographer who kept asking us to hold our placards and smile. Never have the words, ’ Ricky Martin’ and ’ giant loser’ seemed so interchangeable. On the five-minute drive to the hotel, the driver told us to sit back, relax, and reach into the white limo’s fridge for a cold can of Medalla Light. Celebrities really do live better.
At the hotel the publicist whisked us to the Texas-themed restaurant, the Ranch, built with real Connecticut barn wood. Nothing submerges you into the relaxing Caribbean lifestyle as much as Texan attitude and Northeastern barn wood. The manager gave us a complimentary platter of rattlesnake sausage and jalapeno poppers, which, I believe, are known as the food of celebrities. He blasted Martin’s song ’ She Bangs’ and made five waiters run over and ask me to dance, an unpleasant thing to demand of a celebrity, much less of someone pretending to be one. Then they led me to the mechanical bull, which I rode until I fell off...
Questions 66 to 70
Answer the following questions with the information given in the passage.
Who is Ricky Martin?
选项
答案
A super singer in Puerto Rico.
解析
(作者对自己挑选的角色介绍不多,只在第四段和最后一段分别提到“Ricky Martin…is big in Puerto Rico”和“Martin’s song‘She Bangs’,由此推断,Ricky Manin可能是波多黎各的一名歌手。)
