Question

　　China’s 110m hurdles（栏）world record holder Liu Xiang and Jamaica’s（牙买加）100 metres world record holder Asafa Powell made the most impressive marks on the opening day of the IAAF World Grand Prix finals.

　　Powell ran yet another sub 10 second race though he didn’t threaten his record of 9.77 sec and Liu made a stunning return to the international circuit after taking time off since breaking the world mark in July in Lausanne.

　　Liu timed 12.93 sec in the event and admitted to not feeling too surprised at his excellent run.

　　“I felt really well before the race and I knew I was in really good shape,” said the 23-year-old Olympic champion.

　　“After my world record (12.88 sec breaking Colin Jackson’s 13 year old mark of 12.91) I returned to Beijing and got a lot of rest,” added Liu.

　　However Liu promised more of the same at the World Cup in Athens this weekend.

　　“The World Cup has been my end of season objective and that is why I didn’t give it my all,” said Liu.

　　Unlike Liu, Powell was undecided about the World Cup.

　　“I feel a little tired, the season has been long but a rich one,” said Powell, who started way back in March at the Commonwealth Games where he won the 100 m title.

　　“I will see whether I run in Athens next week.”

　　Powell admitted that he had not threatened his world record because he was nervous of false starting（抢跑）.

　　“There had already been one so I didn’t want to be disqualified for doing the second one. I am not disappointed in my time at all.”

Answer 1

答案：D;C;A
解析：

(1)根据首段的含义“在国际田联大奖赛总决赛第一天的比赛中，中国110米跨栏世界纪录保持者刘翔和牙买加男子百米世界纪录保持者阿萨法·鲍威尔成为两个最大的亮点”和第二段的首句“鲍威尔再次跑进10秒夺得男子百米冠军，但未能打破他9.77秒的个人纪录，……”可知答案为D项。 (2)根据“‘I felt really well before the race and I knew I was in really good shape,’ said the 23-year-old Olympic champion.”可知。 (3)B项原句为“I will see whether I run in Athens next week.”。C项为刘翔的话，D项原句为“I am not disappointed in my time at all.”。
