Sports are full of wonderful moments, but perhaps 1 is as exciting as the finish of the marathon. It is the longest, hardest 2 of all. The name “marathon” comes from a village in 3 . A famous battle was 4 there in the year 490 BC. When the Greeks had beaten the Persians, a soldier 5 all the way 6 Marathon to Athens, more than 40 kilometres to 7 people the good 8 . When the modern Olympic Games 9 in 1896, the organizers knew this 10 . The marathon has been a race 11 that time.

  In the ancient world the Olympic Games were held 12 four years of 1,000 years. They were an important part of life. In the 13 Games we try to copy their 14 . The finest sportsmen in the world are collected in one place 15 at least the finest “amateurs (業(yè)余愛好者)” are. An amateur is someone who does not earn 16 money from sport. It is often difficult to say who is an amateur and who is not. It is 17 that Olympic athletes do not earn large amounts of money like professional (職業(yè)的) sportsmen. But Olympic athletes are often students or teachers of a 18 . They have to 19 a lot of time training. Their governments pay for their training, travel and pocket money, 20 they want them to win. Some people think this changes the Olympics. They feel that the Games are now a political marathon.

解析:

  1.由but可知沒有什么(nothing)能與馬拉松相比.

  2marathon是一種race(競賽).

  3.由下面的示例…when the Greeks…可知,A正確.

  4A、C、D均為不及物動詞,因此無被動語態(tài).

  5ran才可以體現(xiàn)下文的tell people the good news這一特點(diǎn).

  6.固定搭配fromto…從……到…….

  7.他們擊敗了Persians,因此對他們來說是good news

  8tell告訴(信息);say說(后有說話的內(nèi)容);talk談話,故D正確.

  9.如選A則用被動語態(tài),故happen正確.

  10.所有舉辦奧運(yùn)會的人都知道這個故事(story).

  11.自從(since)那個時候,馬拉松就成了奧運(yùn)會的一項比賽.

  12every每……,隔…….

  13.由本句的時態(tài)可知為modern Games

  14.應(yīng)為idea,奧運(yùn)會的觀念.

  15.選擇關(guān)系,or正確.

  16.這句闡述了非職業(yè)運(yùn)動員的概念,即不從任何運(yùn)動項目中獲得經(jīng)濟(jì)利益的人是非職業(yè)運(yùn)動員.

  17.奧運(yùn)會運(yùn)動員不能像一些職業(yè)運(yùn)動員一樣掙大錢,這是一個事實(shí)(true).

  18.奧運(yùn)會選手代表的是某一個國家.

  19B、D均有“花費(fèi)”之意,但其主語是物,只有C主語是人.

  20.此處為因果關(guān)系.

 While I was at school, I  1  train with Spurs on Tuesdays and Thursdays. I also    2  for English schoolboys, so I suppose I was    3  a school boy star.

  

 I didn't really get into  4  at school. I had my two elder brothers there for    5  of the time that I was there, so my stay at the school wasn't that hard.    6  other children had a really hard time.

  

 I left  7  the end of the Fourth Year, and that caused a bit of trouble. I was allowed    8  maths and technical drawing early. I passed them    9  , but unfortunately I failed in woodwork. If I'd stayed on    10  12 subjects like the other children.

  

 It was a big decision to leave early so as  11  take all my exams. It could have meant that I'd wasted    12  years. But how many could get the    13  that I had? I'm told that only one in 1000 makes it in    14  , so you have only a very slim chance. But I decided to go for it and looking back it was the    15  thing to do.

  

 I didn't support Spurs  16  a boy. I supported QPR, my local team. But to play for Spurs,    17  had just won the FA Cup, was interesting to me. There were so many    18  , and of course Bill Nicholson was the    19  thena great manager.

 I didn't have any girlfriends at  20  .I was  21  deeply involved (陷于) in football that I didn't have time.    22  I don't have direct contact with my old school friends, I own a sports    23  in the area, so they often drop into the shop and talk about the old days,    24  is really nice. I'm always pleased to see them.

  

 I would advise anyone  25  to be a footballer to stay on at school to do their exams. If a club wants you badly enough they'll come in for you later.
