高二英语阅读
In ancient Greece athletic festivals were very important and had strong religious associations.The Olympian athletic festival held every four years in honor of Zeus,king of the Olympian Gods,eventually lost its local character,became first a national event and then,after the rules against foreign competitors had been put to an end,international.No one knows how far back the Olympic Games go,but some official records date from 776 B.C..
The games took place in August on the plain by Mount Olympus.Many thousands of people gathered from all parts of Greece to watch the games,but no married woman was admitted even for watching.Slaves,women and dishonored persons were not allowed to compete.The exact sequence of events is uncertain,but events included boy's gymnastics,boxing,wrestling,horse racing and field events,though there were fewer sports involved than in the modern Olympic Games.
On the last day of the Games,all the winners were honored by having a ring of holy olive(橄榄树) leaves placed on their heads.So great was the honor that the winner of the foot race gave his name to the year of his victory.Although Olympic winners received no money,they were.in fact,richly rewarded by their state authorities.
1.In ancient Greece,the Olympic Games_______.
a) was held by Zeus,king of the Olympian Gods
b) was a religious event
c) was first a national event held every four years
d) was an international event held in honor of Zeus
选什么?
基本同意2楼的说法,可是文中说 became first a national event and then……当它成为国际性的活动的时候,已经是"become"之后的了,也就是说,最初的ancient...并非如此。
而且文中的in honor of Zeus,也可与was a religious event
联系起来。

我是二楼
C
解析:
A错,因为不是由 Zeus举办,而是纪念他
B错,had strong religious associations原文说的是与宗教有很强的联系,此处是无中生有.
D错,因为原文中写道became first a national event and then,after the rules against foreign competitors had been put to an end,international.所以并不是一开始就是国际化的活动.
这就不对了,因为Zeus是从希腊神话中出来的,并不是从宗教出来的.
而且D中用的是was,与本文矛盾.

a

就是a!!!!!!!!!!绝对不会错!

C
原文中第二行
The Olympian athletic festival held every four years in honor of Zeus,
所以held every four years
第四行
became first a national event and then
所以was first a national event
综上,所以选Cwas first a national event held every four years
