Question

Some people believe that international sport creates goodwill between the nations and that if countries play games together, they will learn to live together. Others say that the opposite is true: international competitions encourage false national pride and lead to misunderstanding and hatred. There is probably some truth in both arguments, but in recent years the Olympic Games have done little to support the view that sport encourages international brotherhood. Not only was there the tragic incident including the murder of athletes, but the Games were also ruined by incidents caused mainly by smaller national contests.
One country received its second-place medals with visible anger after the hockey final. There had been noisy scenes at the end of the hockey match, the losers objecting to the final decisions. They were sure that one of their goals should not have been disallowed and that their opponents’ victory was unfair. Their manager was in great anger when he said, “This wasn’t hockey. Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished.” The president of the Federation said later that such behavior could result in the suspension（停賽）of the team for at least three years.
Incidents of this kind will continue as long as sport is played competitively rather than for the love of the game. The suggestion that athletes should compete as individuals, or in non-national teams, might be too much to hope for. But in the present organization of the Olympics there is far too much that encourages  aggressive patriotism(愛國主義)

試題分析：
1.根據(jù)" but in recent years the Olympic Games have done little to support the view that sport encourages international brotherhood.可知在最近幾年的奧運(yùn)會上，沒有體現(xiàn)出體育鼓勵國際間的手足情誼，故選C。
2.根據(jù)英語中的構(gòu)詞法，allow是允許，dis-是表示否定意義的前綴，disallowed，不允許，故選D。
3.根據(jù)They were sure that one of their goals should not have been disallowed and that their opponents’ victory was unfair.這段描述可知他們認(rèn)為比賽結(jié)果不公平，故選B
4.根據(jù)There is probably some truth in both arguments, but in recent years the Olympic Games have done little to support the view that sport encourages international brotherhood.這句可以看出，舉這個(gè)例子主要是說明運(yùn)動會上的競賽阻礙了國際間的友誼，故選C
5.根據(jù)Incidents of this kind will continue as long as sport is played competitively rather than for the love of the game這句可推斷出奧運(yùn)會機(jī)構(gòu)必須要改進(jìn)，故選A
考點(diǎn)：本文為一篇議論文。
點(diǎn)評：本文通過舉例說明奧運(yùn)會上的競賽阻礙了國際間的友誼，所以提出奧運(yùn)會機(jī)構(gòu)必須要改革。本文比較簡單，理解課文以后，不難選出正確答案。
