Passage Five In 1924,Nordic ski events were held at the first Winter Olympics in Chamonix,France.But the American skiers came home without medals.Norway took most of the medals for cross-country and ski jumping events that year.They did the same for many years after.From 1924 through 1972,the American skiers had no medals to show for their Olympic trips.The U.S.was generally thought to be weak in ski competition But in 1974 it was discovered that the U.S.record was slightly better than people had been led to believe.And Norway's record was not quite as good.The discovery was a surprise and a delight to American ski fans,but even more so to American skier Anders Haugen.After fifty years,Anders got the medal he should have won back in 1924. In the ski jump event at Chamonix in 1924,Haugen had scored in fourth place.He had just missed earning a medal.His score was 17.916,just slightly behind Thorleif Haug of Norway.Haug's score of 18 had won him the bronze medal. But in 1974,Norway's National Olympic Committee did a check of all final Olympic results.There had been an error in?computing?Haug's score!So Haugen,now,an elderly man,traveled across the ocean for his award.On September 12,1974,hewas given a bronze medal in a special ceremony at the Norway Ski Museum. The best title for this passage would be______
A、the 1924 Olympics
B、Norway's Skiers
C、An Olympic Record Corrected
D、American Skiers in the Olympics
【正确答案】:C
【题目解析】:文章主要讲述了在1924年冬奥会上,由于计算错误,美国滑雪运动员安德斯·豪根(Anders Haugen)未能获得他应得的奖牌,而在1974年挪威国家奥委会对所有奥运会决赛成绩进行核查后,这个错误被发现并得到纠正,豪根最终获得了他应得的铜牌。因此,文章的核心内容是讲述一个奥运纪录的纠正,故正确答案为C,即“一个被纠正的奥运纪录”。 选项A“1924年奥运会”虽然涉及了文章的部分内容,但并不是文章的主题;选项B“挪威的滑雪运动员”只是文中的一个部分,不足以概括全文;选项D“奥运会中的美国滑雪运动员”虽然也涉及了文中的部分内容,但同样不是文章的核心主题。因此,这些选项都不符合文章的主旨。
