阅读下面短文,并根据短文后的要求答题。

In the Middle Eastern country of Syria (叙利亚), there are over 4 million refugees (难民). Youssef was 10 years old when a local Syrian musician discovered his talent: a deep, powerful voice. However, Syria’s civil (内部的) war took place. He and his family lost their home.

When the Action for Hope Music School announced that it was looking for talented children to train, his family encouraged him to attend the school. A year and half later, the now 14-year-old, Youssef, with another 11 children, was chosen to take part in a concert.

Youssef, a shy boy, was a lead singer in the concert. He gave a confident performance of traditional Syrian songs. “We only heard the sound of a mortar ( 迫 击 炮 ). It fell near us. Many buildings fell down. That is all I remember,” said Youssef. “Music makes me forget everything. Music is the most important thing.”

Basma, director of Action for Hope, said the music school offers strength to the children who suffer (遭受) from the war. They can find a good way to express themselves and stop thinking of themselves as refugees.

“Art gives strength. It comes from the ability to create,” Basma said. “People who are in difficult conditions need this strength much more than the rich.”

1.Why did Youssef and his family lose their home?

2.How many children were chosen to take part in the concert?

3.Was Youssef a lead singer in the concert?

4.文中划线单词 “They” 指代的是___________________________________

Four years ago, Chinese skater Wu Dajing introduced himself to the skating world by winning a silver medal at the Sochi Olympic Winter Games. At this year’s Pyeong Chang Olympics, Wu not only returned, but also made history.

On Feb 22th, 2018, Wu won the gold medal in the men’s short-track 500-meter race. He set a new world record with a

time of 39.584 seconds. He also became the first Chinese man to take home an Olympic short-track gold medal. BBC said Wu’s win was “flawless”, because he was much faster than all of the other skaters.

“I didn’t give them a chance and I kept my speed from the start,” he told the reporter after the match.

But China’s short-track teams didn’t do well in general at the Games. Chinese skaters in the women’s 500 meters, 3000-meter relay and men’s 1500 meters all failed to take home the gold. Wu was China’s biggest hope, which put a lot of pressure on him. But he proved himself with his great performance.

Wu is now known as a highly talented skater. But things were not always that way. When Wu joined the national team in 2010, he was seen as almost “nothing” compared to gifted skaters like Zhou Yang and Fan Kexin, as his coaches said at the time. Their words made him quite upset. But Wu didn’t want to give up and worked as hard as he could. He practiced skating all year round. He even didn’t return to his hometown for the holidays for 10 years. “I believe in myself,” he told the reporter after his match at the Olympics.

1.At the Pyeong Chang Olympics, Wu Dajing won the gold medal in the men’s short-track

race.

A. 500-meter B. 1000-meter

C. 1500-meter D. 3000-meter relay

2.What does the underlined word “flawless” mean?

A. Ordinary. B. Common. C. Perfect. D. Difficult.

3.Accor ding to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?

A. Wu won a gold medal at the Sochi Olympic Winter Games four years ago.

B. Wu set the world record with a time of 39.584 seconds and made history.

C. Wu’s coaches placed great hope on him when he joined the national team.

D. Chinese skaters in the women’s 500 meters, 3000-meter relay took home the gold.

4.What does the last paragraph mainly tell us?

A. The national team and coaches regarded Wu as a talented skater all the way.

B. Wu kept on practicing skating all year round even in the holidays for 10 years.

C. Zhou Yang and Fan Kexin were more hard-working on skating than Wu Dajing.

D. Because of Wu’s hard work, confidence and strong will, he finally succeeded.

5.Which one might be the best title of this passage?

A. From Zero to Skating Hero B. Short-track 500-meter Race

C. Pyeong Chang Winter Olympics D. Rising of China’s Bright Skiing Star
