　　 A lot of tourists visit Las Vegas every day Millions of people all over the world look forward to just getting a look at what Las Vegas is like. But one particular question always cross people's mind: Why is Las Vegas always on the top of every vacation resort list? Why is La s Vegas the first thing that crosses every single person's mind when the word “vacation” approaches?

    Las Vegas is the legendary dreamland for moneymakers, as well as the most perfect vacation spot ever to be open and available to vacationers throughout the whole world! Equip with 12 of the largest hotels ever to be built, casinos make your brain spin, and sights you could never finish seeing I guess the most important and popular thing that attracts so many tourists, is the money magnet that only Las Vegas possesses This craving desire for money that lives within ourselves always tends to lead to Las Vegas, which is why 30 million people hear for the golden town of gambling each and every year.

　　Now, many great famous movie stars as well as singers, and all the tops in show biz, are coming to this little town just out of nowhere to perform and entertain the many sightseers of Las Vegas. It truly brings me in awe when I note the fact that the most successful town in the whole broad world could be located in such a deserted town in which many years ago were nothing more than a giant mass of sand and mountains suffering in the tremendous desert heat. To think the human race could establish such a growing and changing treasure is so much of an abandoned, really unites the fact that if we especially work hard, and put enough effort into anything, there isn't anything we can't accomplish!

阅读下面短文，从每题所给的四个选项中选出最佳答案.

　　 Sometime today--perhaps several times--Dick Winter will think about the19-year-old who saved his life.

　　 Because of this young man, Winter enjoys things like friendships, colours and laughter every day.

　　 The young man saved Winter's life by signing an organ donor card (器官损献卡).

   “I can't say thank you enough,” Winter said yesterday at a news conference making the tenth anniversary of the Multi Organ Transplant program at Toronto General Hospital.

    What Winter knows of the 19-year-old who saved his life is only that he died in a car accident and that his family was willing to honour his wishes and donate his organs for transplantation.

    His liver (肝脏) went to Winter, who was dying from liver trouble. “Not a day goes by that I don't think of what a painful thing it must have been for them.” Winter said yesterday.

    “They are very, very special people.”

　　 Winter, 63, is fitter now than he was 10 years ago, when he got the transplant. He has five medals from the 1995 World Transplant Games in swimming and hopes to collect some next year in Japan.

　　“At one time, we were probably strange people in the eyes of other people. Now it's expected you should be able to go back and do everything you did before, only better.”

　　 The biggest change for Winter, however, isn't that he has become a competitive athlete. The biggest change is how deeply he appreciates every little thing about his life now.

   “I have no time for arguments,” said Winter.

   “You change everything. Material things don't mean as much. Friendships mean a lot.”

    Also at yesterday's news conference was Dr. Gray Levy, Winter's doctor.

    Levy said he has bitter-sweet feelings when he looks at Winter and hears of his athletic exploits.

   Levy knows that for every recipient (接受者) like Winter, there are several others who die even though they could be saved because there aren't enough donated organs.

  “For every Mr Winter. We have five to 10 people that will never be given the chance that Mr. Winter was given.” Levy said.

   Levy said greater public awareness and more resources are needed．He noted that in Spain and the United States, hospitals receive $10,000 per donor to cover the costs of the operating room, doctors, nurses and teams to work with the donor's families.

(1)Which of the following is true about the 19-year-old? ________.

[　　]

A．He died of liver trouble

B．He got wounded in a battle

C．He was willing to donate his organs

D．He became a recipient of a prize

(2)What do we learn about Dick Winter? ________.

[　　]

A．He is becoming less competitive now

B．He is always thinking about his early life

C．He knows all about the young man and his family

D．He values friendships more than material things

(3)Dr. Levy would agree that ________.

[　　]

A．Spanish hospitals have more favorable conditions for organ transplant

B．the Canadian public have realized the importance of organ donation

C．Spanish hospitals received more money from the donors

D．Canadian hospitals now have enough donated organs

(4)What's tbe author's purpose in writing this article?______.

A．The public should give more support to organ transplant

B．Transplant patients are thankful for the help they receive

C．Transplant can change a patient stile greatly

D．It is not easy to get organs for transplant
