解析:

　　本文是一篇新聞報(bào)導(dǎo)：全國(guó)中小學(xué)華羅庚數(shù)學(xué)金杯賽的情況。

1.是歸納概括題。A、B兩項(xiàng)只是具體事實(shí),C項(xiàng)雖提到了20個(gè)獲獎(jiǎng)?wù)撸�但也不包括文章�?nèi)容的全部，只有D項(xiàng)能概括全文主旨大意。

2.屬于細(xì)節(jié)理解題。從最后一段加the contest started in 1986…（競(jìng)賽始于1986年），再看 in less than 10 years, it has been recognized… （在不到10年時(shí)間里，它已被承認(rèn)為……）可以斷定C項(xiàng)（1986）是正確選項(xiàng)。

3.是一個(gè)推理判斷題�？疾閷W(xué)生對(duì)作者寫作態(tài)度的推測(cè)。文章提到一個(gè)廣東省教師說(shuō)”Many of the problems are of college level and these pupils can figure them out. it is just unbelievable! “said a teacher from Guangdong province.（大多數(shù)題目都是大學(xué)水平 而中小學(xué)生也能做出來(lái)，真是難以置信）這些話語(yǔ)充滿贊嘆之情，當(dāng)然應(yīng)選A。

4.為詞句理解題：猜測(cè)figure (them) out的詞義。如果弄清了them是代表 many of the problems，那么，做出數(shù)學(xué)題就可用 work out．故C項(xiàng)正確。 　　答案:C
