Question

【題目】 My name is Wei Hua and I'm a sporting robot of the 23rdcentury. I'm clever at high flying exercises. I jump from spaceships and as I fall, I turn, dive, circle and dance until I softly land as close as I can to the finishing line.

Robot competitions in the 23rdcentury are truly a popular sport. Fans from all over China watch their hand-held TVs when a competition comes on. Last time I took part in the 78thOlympics and I won the silver medal for my performance.

This year I was very proud to be chosen again. I wanted to meet robots from other countries and explore ideas about our sport. However, my programmer fell ill the week before we were leaving. It was very painful for her and I felt very scared. I didn't feel so confident that I would win.

The day of the competition was rather cold for my legs and my special oil began to freeze. I stopped for a moment (which I shouldn't) before I jumped from the starting place on a little spaceship, then I began my performance. At the correct moment I tried to open my parachute (降落傘) but there was a problem. It only opened a little. I began to fall faster and faster so that I could not turn, dive, circle or dance. My heart stopped beating as I landed heavily on a mountain covered with snow.

This is why I am writing to you from my hospital bed with two broken legs and a weak head. I did not win anything at the Olympics after all. I need the factory to build me two new legs and an even bigger head. Then I will be able to compete once more. Let's hope for greater success in the next Olympics!

【4】A

【解析】

本文是一篇記敘文。短文敘述了23世紀(jì)的機(jī)器人Wei Hua兩次參加機(jī)器人比賽的情況。

【1】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第二段最后一句“Last time I took part in the 78thOlympics and I won the silver medal for my performance.”提示Wei Hua在第78屆奧運會中獲得了銀牌，即第二名。故答案選B。

【2】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中句子“However, my programmer fell ill the week before we were leaving. It was very painful for her and I felt very scared.”可知在動身前程序員生病，才導(dǎo)致機(jī)器人感到不自信，故選A。

【3】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)倒數(shù)第二段中句子“cold for my legs...my special oil began to freeze...open my parachute (降落傘) but there was a problem.”可知導(dǎo)致比賽失利的原因有腿部發(fā)涼、專用油凝結(jié)和降落傘故障三方面。故選C。

【4】細(xì)節(jié)理解題。短文最后一句“Let's hope for greater success in the next Olympics!” 可知Wei Hua現(xiàn)在充滿希望。故選A。
