US CITIES: English vocabulary and grammar practice: LAS VEGAS, NV

Here's a new way to learn and practice English: We've developed a series of exercises based on descriptions of some of the most famous American cities. Here's a description of Las Vegas, NV. Read it and choose the right word for each blank space :) Good luck!

Las Vegas (often informally (called/referred) to as "Vegas") is the most populous city in the state of Nevada, and an (internationally/international) known vacation, shopping, entertainment, and (betting/gambling) destination. It was (made/established) in 1905 and officially became a city in 1911. It is the largest U.S. city (founded/found) in the 20th century. The center of gambling in the United States, Las Vegas is (marked/marketed) as "The Entertainment Capital of the World", and is commonly known as Sin City or Vice City, due to the popularity of legalized gambling, availability of (alcoholic/alcohol)

beverages at any time (as is true throughout Nevada), and (varying/various) forms and (decrees/degrees) of adult entertainment. The city's (glamour/glamorous) image has made it a popular setting for films and television programs.
