| A) honour |

D) moral |
| E) arrive |

1.选I）。空格中要填词为who引导的定语从句中的谓语动词，可知此处应填动词的过去式。可选项有had,
occurred和happened,首先空格所在的who引导的定语从句修饰的是tourists“游客”，happened
to be in
Greece“碰巧在希腊”是符合这样的语境的，而had to “不得不”和occur
to表示“想起，想到”都不能使句意通顺。
2.选L）。and引导两个意思相近的并列结构，由the standard was not
high“标准不高”可知，此处要填的是
和not high语气一致的形容词，再由前两句可知，参赛的国家很少并且有很多很多游客参加了比赛，这说明
这次比赛没有那么正式，选项中只有informal符合题意。选项irregular则一般表示“（形状）不规则的，
（安排）无规律的”，与句意不符，故排除。
3.选M）。从句中的except可知在两次世界大战中没有比赛，说明的是奥运会因战争而中断。选项中有end
和interruption可表示停止，end“终断”，表示某事中断后不再继续，interruption“中断”，表示某事中断后仍
然继续，故选择interruption。
4.选J）。本句主系表结构完整，由此可知，此处应填副词，修饰整个句子。选项中有definitely和especially，
从句意来理解，这......违背了古老的奥林匹克精神，将definitely“显然地”带入原文，符合原文的意思；而
especially“特别地”表示强调，而此处表示的则是通过比较后得出结果，故排除especially。
5.选K）。奥林匹克比赛中的两个最重要的方面就是竞技水平和运动精神，由grown enormously
in scale可
知，现在参加奥林匹克运动会规模渐大，运动员逐渐增多，因此应理解为体育竞技水平达到了前所未有的
高度，因此应选physical。
6.选D）。此处应填形容词。由Unfortunately和because of the
political prestige and commercial
profit
推出，不幸的是各国竞争举办奥运的目的是为了政治威望与利益，可见此处说明的是与体育成绩相对应的
运动会的道德水准没有得到相应的提高，选项中只有moral符合题意。
7.选A）。此处应填名词。各国争夺举办奥运会，to hold the
games是一种实力象征，也是一种荣耀。选
项中有honour和power可选，power一般指“（个人或团体所掌握或获得的）职权”，故排除power而选
honour“荣幸”。
8.选C）。此处应填动词的被动形式，这里考查的是动词have的一个搭配用法即have something
out of
something“从......中得到......”，故这里选这C）had,表示“举办奥运会带来的政治威望和商业利润。”
9.选H）。cme to power是固定搭配，意为“（开始）掌权，上台”。
10.选B）。此处应填动词的原形。可选项有accomplish,arrive和end,arrive一般指“到达（某地）”，end
强调的是“（使某事）结束”，因此都不能与journey搭配，故排除arrive和end而选accomplish“完成”。
