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、The number of tourists.
B、Holiday travellers.
C、Tourist expenditure on shopping.
D、Tourist expenditure on dining and entertainment.
答案
C
解析
本题测试对全文的整体理解和归纳推理能力。在理解全文大意的基础上,抓住关键信 息,如“A record number of tourists”,“showing a swing in favour of more vacation travellers”,“shopping...dropped slightly”,“dining and entertainment increased” 等可以使我们了解除了购物有所下降外,其他几个项目都有所上升,因此正确答案为C。
