Question

It was an exciting moment for Shen Xue and Zhao Hongbo, a retired married couple from Harbin, China. It was also a great moment for China because it was the country’s first gold medal in the pairs figure（花样）skating competition at the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympic Games.
Everyone was very quiet when Shen and Zhao were skating onto the ice. They were expecting something wonderful to happen. As soon as the music started, Shen and Zhao skated around the field quickly with beautiful style; every move was perfect. When the music stopped, all the people cheered. In the end Shen and Zhao won the Olympic gold medal.
In China, winter sports are not as popular as they are in America and Northern European countries. So China sent only 90 athletes to Vancouver to take in a few, carefully chosen sports. Such a good decision also led to Wang Meng and Zhao Yang winning gold medals in the little known, but exciting sports of short track (轨道) speed skating.
China did not win a lot of medals at these Winter Games. Most of the events are still very new to China and need to be developed. But Chinese athletes learn very quickly. For example, China’s women’s curling team(冰壶队) only began in 2003, but they were No. 1 at the 2009 World Women’s Curling Championship.
This means that with hard work and a bit of luck, China’s winter stars could soon shine on the world stage.

解析试题分析：
这是一个激动人心的时刻, 在2010年温哥华冬季奥运会申雪和赵宏博,取得双人花样滑冰大赛的冠军。在中国,冬季运动并不受欢迎,所以中国没有赢得很多金牌,大多比赛项目对中国还很新,需要开发。但是中国运动员学习非常迅速。例如,中国女性的冰壶团队(冰壶队)在2003年才开始,但他们在2009年世界妇女的冰壶锦标赛获得第一名。这意味着靠着勤奋和一点运气,中国的冬天恒星可能很快就会在世界舞台上发光。
