D.Skating.【答案与解析】本文告知我们，自1932年后，每届冬季奥林匹克运动会进行时，东道国与非东道国都可以为此发行纪念邮票。1.A。细节题。从第1句TheWinterOlympics(奥林匹克运动会)isalsocalledtheWhiteOlympics可知答案为Ａ。2.B。细节题。依据句子ThefirststampsmarkingtheopeningcameoutonJanuary25,1932intheUnitedStatesforthe3rdWhiteOlympics.Fromthenon,publishingstampsduringtheWhiteOlympicsbecamearule(规定)可知答案为Ｂ。3.C。细节题。依据文章内容在1932年进行第3届冬季奥林匹克运动会，在1936年进行第4届冬季奥林匹克运动会，由此推知每四年进行一次。4.C。细节题。从句子WhentheWhiteOlympicscame,thehostcountries(东道国)aswellasthenon-hostcountriespublishedstampstomarkthoseGames中可知。5.D。推断题。文章的主题是冬季奥林匹克运动会，所以最可能毁灭在邮票上的是Skating(滑雪)。Thiswasawonderfulmatch.ThetwoteamshadbeenplayingforonlythreeminuteswhenGomezscoredthefirstgoal,andJimernezhadalmostscoredaminutebefore.Liverpoolcamebackwithafineattack.UnfortunatelyTarleston,theircenterforward,leftthefieldinthe35thminute.Hehadhurthisanklebadlyearlier,buthadbeenplayinginspiteofhisinjury.BobbyGoodscoredforLiverpoolinthe40thminute.HehadtakenapassfromBiles,hadrun40yardsandhadbeatenatleast3ValenciadefenderswhenToresalmostbroughthimdownwithahardtackle(拥抱),Goodgotpasthimsomehow,shotovertheheadofthegoal-keeperandscored.Thusthematchwasoverandthefinalresultwasonetoone.1.Thefirstscorewasmadeby______andthelastscorewasmadeby______.A.Gomez,Good
