<b>Question 9 : Read the passage then answer the questions.</b>

Las Vegas is the most famous city for gambling in the United States. Some people
say that Las Vegas is a mispronunciation of “lost wages”. The casinos and hotels have so
many neon lights that some people call this city the desert “the city of lights”. Each of the
big hotels in Las Vegas is special. Going into one is like entering another world. One hotel is
like ancient Egypt. Another is like a tropical island. Still another is like New York City.
These hotels have shows with famous entertainers. Everything looks expensive. But the
rooms cost half the price of rooms in other places. And the restaurants have all-you-can-eat
meals for very little money. That’s because the hotels make their money from the gambling
casinos.

Las Vegas started in 1905 as a small train stop. There were only a few buildings in
the middle of the desert. In 1946, a famous gangster named Bugsy Siegel built the first
casino. He was murdered in 1947. This made him and Las Vegas famous. In the early 1950s
tourists went to Las Vegas not only to gamble. They went to watch atomic bomb test in the
desert outside the city. In those days, people didn’t know it was dangerous. They thought it
was exciting.

Las Vegas is also famous its many wedding chapels. Like all of Las Vegas, they are
open 24 hours a day. Getting married is easy. A couple just pays a few dollars for a license,
and they can get married immediately. They don’t have to wait. Many famous movie stars

were married in Las Vegas.
