Passage Summary: A tourist town noticed that hotels and restaurants are making way more money than the local attraction's pass sales, so the managers think people are cheating the system by sharing passes.

Conclusion: Visitors are likely sharing or selling their annual passes illegally.

Reasoning: Local hospitality revenue is growing much faster than the revenue from the attraction's annual passes.

Analysis: This is a 'Weaken EXCEPT' question, so our goal is to identify four choices that offer alternative explanations for the revenue discrepancy. The managers are jumping to the conclusion of theft, but perhaps people are simply staying in hotels longer or dining at fancier restaurants while visiting the attraction the same amount. The correct answer will be the one that either supports the 'sharing' hypothesis or has no impact on the argument at all. We need to find the odd one out that doesn't provide a reason for the gap other than illicit activity.
