The final event in the Olympics is the marathon. It is also usually the most 【1】 (excite).

The name of the race comes from 【3】 battle in Ancient Greece. According to the story, a soldier ran from the scene of the battle, Marathon, to Athens, to bring the news of Greek victory 【4】 the Persians. He died just after arriving.
The marathon has been an Olympics event 【5】 the modern games started in 1896. However, one of the most famous marathons is in New York. It is 【6】 (watch) by two million people around the streets and across the bridges of the city’s five boroughs, 【7】 past New York’s famous landmarks. But perhaps one of the most beautiful and extraordinary marathons ever is the Great Wall Marathon, which most 【8】 (compete) find is the 【9】 (tough) course to run.

【解析】
试题分析:本文介绍了著名的马拉松运动的起源以及一些世界闻名的马拉松比赛。
【1】exciting 考查形容词。本句中系动词is的后面要接形容词对主语it,也就是“marathon”进行修饰,这是一个表示事物的名词,所以使用现在分词转换而来的形容词exciting。
【2】 rises 考查主谓一致。本句主语the crowd人群,作为一个整体使用,谓语动词使用单数形式。
【3】a 考查冠词。本句中名词battle战役,这是一个可数名词,前面加不定冠词a表示泛指。句意:这个赛跑的名字来自于一次古希腊的战役。
【4】against 考查介词。本句中介词against意为“反对,对抗”,句意:一位士兵从战场马拉松跑回希腊,把希腊战胜波斯的胜利的消息带了回去。
【5】since 考查连词。句意:自从1896年第一届现代奥运会开始以来,马拉松一直都是一个奥运会项目。根据句意可知表示从一个古代的时间开始到现在,所以使用连词since"自从..."。主句要使用现在完成时。
【6】 watched 考查语态。本句的主语it与动词watch之间构成被动关系,所以使用被动语态。
【7】 and 考查连词。本句中介词短语across the bridges of the city’s five boroughs和past New York’s famous landmarks构成并列关系,所以使用连词并列连词and连接。
【8】 competitors 考查名词。本句是一个定语从句,which指代先行词the Great Wall Marathon在句中作宾语从句的主语,名词competitor运动员在句中作主语。句意:最漂亮最非同一般的马拉松是长城马拉松赛,大部分运动员认为它是最难跑完的。因为前面有most修饰,说明使用复数形式。
【9】toughest 考查形容词最高级。大部分运动员认为它是最难跑完的。长城马拉松赛是所有的马拉松中最艰难的一个,所以使用形容词的最高级形式。
【10】who 考查定语从句。本句中who指代先行词people在句中做主语,引导定语从句。句意:专家们认为大部分人,甚至是那些不擅长运动的人,如果进行训练,也可以跑一个马拉松。

Though British people sometimes have a little difficult understanding Americans, some experts believe that the two variety are moving closer together. For more than century communications across the Atlantic have developed steady. Since the 1980s, with satellite TV and the internet, it has been possible listen to British and American English on the flick of a switch. This non-stop communication has made that easier for British people and Americans to understand each other.

【题目】阅读下列短文,从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中,选出最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
Filmmaker Jennifer Nelson had to pay $1,500 to have “Happy Birthday to You” sung in the movie she’s making. The money went to Warner Music Group, a company that claims to own the copyright on the song. A copyright is the legal right to use or sell a creative product such as a song, a TV show, a book, or a work of art. Warner has claimed the copyright for “Happy Birthday to You” since 1988.
“I never thought the song was owned by anyone,” Nelson said in an e-mail to The New York Times. “I thought it belonged to everyone.”
Nelson’s movie is a documentary(纪录片)— a film that uses pictures and/or interviews with people to create a factual report of real-life events — and is actually about the history of the “Happy Birthday” song itself.
Two sisters named Mildred and Patty Hill wrote a song called “Good Morning to All” in 1893. Over a short period of time, people began to sing the words “happy birthday to you” in place of the original lyrics to the tune of the Hill sisters’ song.
A number of history experts say that there is no record of who actually wrote the “Happy Birthday to You” lyrics(歌词). Historians also say there is no way to know when the general public began singing the “Happy Birthday” song, but they believe it was being sung by the public long before it was printed and owned by a company.
Nelson’s lawyers say this piece of music’s history proves that “Happy Birthday to You” belongs to everyone in the general public. That would mean Warner Music Group has no right to charge anyone a fee to sing the song in any setting.
Experts estimate that Warner/ Chappell, the publishing division of the Warner Music Group, has made about $2 million a year from licensing fees for “Happy Birthday to You.”
Nelson’s lawyers are asking a court in New York City to order Warner/Chappell to return fees they have collected over the past four years for use of the “Happy Birthday” song.
【1】 Jennifer Nelson had to pay Warner Music Group to ___________ .
A. own the copyright on a song
B. have it write a song for her movie
C. have it play a song in her movie
D. have a song sung in her movie
【2】The history experts’ statement can prove that the “Happy Birthday” song ____________.
A. does not belong to Warner Music Group
B. has more than 200 years’ history
C. was initially owned by another company
D. has always been very popular
【3】According to Nelson’s lawyers, to sing the “Happy Birthday” song, people ____________.
A. should pay the Hill sisters
B. should pay Warner Music Group
C. need not pay for any purpose
D. need not pay except for commercial use
【4】If the court supports Nelson’s lawyers’ claim, ___________.
A. she can obtain the copyright on the song
B. Warner will return about $8 million
C. Warner will have to pay her for her damages
D. she only needs to pay a little money to use the song
