C

Some people believe that international sport creates goodwill between the nations and that if countries play games together, they will learn to live together. Others say that the opposite is true: international competitions encourage false national pride and lead to misunderstanding and hatred（憎恨）. There is probably some truth in both arguments, but in recent years the Olympic Games have done little to support the view that sport encourages international brotherhood. Not only was there the tragic incident including the murder of athletes, but the Games were also ruined by incidents caused mainly by smaller national contests.

    One country received its second-place medals with visible anger after the hockey(曲棍球) final. There had been noisy scenes at the end of the hockey match, the losers objecting to the final decisions. They were sure that one of their goals should not have been disallowed and that their opponents’ victory was unfair. Their manager was in great anger when he said, “This wasn’t hockey. Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished.” The president of the Federation said later that such behavior could result in the suspension（停赛） of the team for at least three years.

Incidents of this kind will continue as long as sport is played competitively rather than for the love of the game. The suggestion that athletes should compete as individuals, or in non-national teams, might be too much to hope for. But in the present organization of the Olympics there is far too much that

encourages  aggressive patriotism(爱国主义).

36. According to the author, recently the Olympic Games have ______.

    A. created goodwill between the nations   

    B. brought about only false national pride

    A. permitted to pass     

    B. considered as reasonable

    C. won by the other side        

    D. refused to accept

38. What did the manager mean by saying, “Hockey and the International Hockey Federation are finished”?

    A. His team would no longer take part in international games.

    B. Hockey and the Federation are both ruined by the unfair decisions.

    C. There should be no more Hockey matches organized by the Federation.

    D. The Federation should break up.

39. The author gives the example in paragraph 2 to show ______.

    A. how false national pride led to undesirable incidents in international games

    B. that sportsmen are often against the final decisions

    C. that competitiveness in the games discourages international friendship

    D. that unfair decisions are common in the Olympic Games

40. What conclusion can be drawn from the passage?

    A. The organization of the Olympic Games must be improved.

    B. Athletes should compete as individuals in the Olympic  Games.

    C. A game should be played competitively rather than for the love of the game.

In the last 500 years, nothing about people — their clothes, ideas, or languages—has changed as much as what they eat. The original chocolate drink was made from the seeds of the cocoa tree(可可树)by South American. Indians. The Spanish introduced it to the rest of the world during the 1500’s. And although it was very expensive, it quickly became fashionable. In London, shops where chocolate drinks were served became important meeting places. Some still exist today.

The potato is also from the New World. Around 1600, the Spanish brought it from Peru to Eu??rope, where it soon was widely grown. Ireland became so dependent on it that thousands of Irish peo??ple starved when the crop failed during the "Potato Famine (饥荒)" of 1845—1846, and thousands more were forced to leave their homeland and move to America.

There are many other foods that have traveled from South America to the Old World. But some others went in the opposite direction. Brazil is now the world’s largest grower of coffee, and coffee is an important crop in Colombia and other South American countries. But it is native to Ethiopia, a country in Africa. It was first made into a drink by Arabs during the 1400’s.

according to an. Arabic legend, coffee was discovered when a person named Kaldi noticed that his goats were attracted to the red berries on a coffee, bush. He tried one and experienced the " wide-awake" feeling that one third of the world’s population now starts the day with.
