[打卡] 霉霉为啥决定在新加坡连演六场？

今天的外刊金句来自《经济学人》“超级巨星巡演会推高通货膨胀吗”：

Carting sets around is riskier and more expensive than playing multiple times at the same venue, if the demand is there. Perhaps that is why Ms Swift has opted to perform her only South-East Asia dates in Singapore. 

词/短语：

1. cart...around: 把...运送到各处

2. multiple times: 多次

3. venue: n.场地

4. opt to do: 选择做某事

5. date: 巡演（=tour）
   

语法：

1. Carting sets around：动名词短语作主语

2. if the demand is there: 条件状语从句

3. why Ms Swift...Singapore: 表语从句
   

译：如果有足够需求，在同一地点多次演出要比四处搬运设施更经济、更安全。也许这就是为什么霉霉把东南亚唯一巡回演出定在新加坡的原因。
