In order to host the Olympics, a city must submit a proposal(提交提案) to the IOC. After

all proposals have been submitted, the IOC votes. If no city with the fewest votes is eliminated, the voting continues, until a majority 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 stage 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 television worldwide, the IOC in recent years has also taken into account the host city’s 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 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 city’s country to provide them with money. This is often done with a part of the Olympic television revenues(收入), and corporate sponsorships(社团赞助), tickets sales, 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 large debts.

41. _______will be determined to host the Olympic Games by the IOC.

A. A city that submits a proposal B. One that hasn’t hosted the Games

C. A city that has perfect time zone D. A majority winner in voting

42. If the Games take place in Canada, American television networks___.

A. are willing to pay much higher amounts for television rights

B. will be forbidden to broadcast live sporting events

C. can’t broadcast popular events live in the best viewing hours

D. will not pay for the Canadian television networks

43. According to the last paragraph, which following statement is true?

A. The host city must be left with large debts

B
