The South Korean city of Pyeongchang will host the 2018 Winter Olympics. The decision was made by the International Olympic Committee. Many cities compete to host the Olympic Games. It is not easy for a city to win the bid. In fact, Pyeongchang had already tried twice. Its campaigns for the 2010 and 2014 Winter Games were unsuccessful. Pyeongchang had to prove it could host the athletes, media, and tourists. It also had to show that it could build state-of-the-art facilities for the Games. Pyeongchang will be the first city in Asia outside of Japan to host the Winter Games. Do It! The city's efforts were _________.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

B rewarded

Explanation:

In order for something to be considered democratic, the people involved in the events must have voted for it. I doubt that people in South Korea actually had a voting referendum to decide whether to hold the Winter Olympics or not.

In order for this to be considered inspiring, it must have made other cities and countries want to imitate them. I doubt it could have inspired other countries to do so, maybe they were inspired by Japanese cities that actually hosted them, but they themselves are not an inspiration to others.

In order for something to be considered desperate, it must have been something hopeless, or facing a situation which is extremely difficult to achieve and at the same time the need to achieve it must be great. Generally desperation is something negative, and this article focused on the positive aspects not the negative ones.
