After all proposals have been submitted, the IOC votes. If no city with the fewest votes is eliminated(淘汰), the voting continues, until a majo

27、rity winner is determined. Typically the Games are awarded several years in advance, allowing the winning city time to prepare for the Games.In selecting the site of the Olympic Games, the IOC considers a number of factors, and chiefly among them is which organizing committee seems most likely to st

28、age the Games effectively. The IOC also considers which parts of the world have not yet hosted the Games. For instance, Tokyo, the host of the 1964 Summer Games, and Beijing, that of the 2008 Games, were chosen in part to popularize the Olympic movement in Asia. Because of growing importance televis

29、ion worldwide, the IOC in recent years has also taken into account the host citys time zone. Whenever the Games take place in the USA or Canada, for example, American television networks are willing to pay specially higher amounts for television rights because they can broadcast popular events live

30、in the best viewing hours.Once the Games have been awarded, it is the duty of the local organizing committee-not the IOC or the NOC of the host citys country to provide them with money. This is often done with a part of the Olympic television revenues(收入), and corporate sponsorships(社團贊助), tickets s

31、ales, and other smaller revenue sources. In many cases there is also direct government support. Although many cities have achieved amounts of money by hosting the Games, the Olympics can be financially risky. When the financial gains from the Games were less than expected, the city was left with lar

32、ge debts.61. _will be determined to host the Olympic Games by the IOC. A. A city that submits a proposal B. One that hasnt hosted the Games C. A city that has perfect time zone D.

33、ch higher amounts for television rightsB. will be forbidden to broadcast live sporting eventsC. cant broadcast popular events live in the best viewing hoursD. will not pay for the Canadian television networks63.

34、 be left with large debts B. The city may achieve a lot of moneyA. There is no financial risk in hosting the Olympic GamesB. It is impossible that the host city couldnt make money64. Which of the following can be the best title of this passage? A. Applying for host for Olympics B. Winner or loserC.

Are you willing to take out your false teeth?These are just a few of the questions Anne Marie Stewart and her staff sometimes ask th

45、e "talent" who serve as non-speaking "extras" in special films, television series, and made-for-TV movies produced in Toronto.Of course, the majority of extra calls are for more ordinary people, and Stewart has a list of about 650 registered extras. Crowd scenes, which are common

46、, call for everyday people of all ages, ethnic backgrounds, and sizes.Over at Movie People, last-minute requests are not unusual. "We got a request once for an entire brass band of 30 people. They wanted it within the hour," said manager Yvonne McCartney. Another time, the company got a la

47、st-minute request for a newborn baby. "We found a baby that was three weeks premature," said Jonathan Aiken, an owner of the company.Then there was the worried call from a casting director whose "Star" got doggone stubborn one day and decided to just lie down and not work. The di

48、rector needed a replacement dog, fast. "We got them two in one hour." said Aiken. "It was a matter of good connections and fast phone work." The eight phone lines needed to make 350 to 400 calls a day are one of Movie People's major expenses.Phone lines are the only way to st

49、ay in touch with casting directors and extras; but the latter are a group not necessarily interested in a long-term relationship. Most extra jobs pay only $7 an hour (with a six-hour minimum), while most agencies charge an annual $75 registration fee and get 10 to 15 per cent of extras earnings. It&

50、#39;s no wonder that the turnover rate is fairly high.Some people who are between jobs do extra work as a temporary measure, said McCartney.

That is the statemen

55、t of researchers who have found that tapping away on a mobile phone or checking for electronic messages temporarily knocks up to 10 points off the users IQ. This rate of decline in intelligence compares unfavorably with the four-point drop in IQ associated with smoking marijuana, according to British researchers, who have described the phenomenon of improved stupidity as “infomania”.
