These places usually receive a lot of snow during the winter months.Skiing and skating become the major sports activities for Westerners during the winter. People from Norway, Italy, the United States, Sweden and Canada all like winter sports.Winter sports such as alpine skiing and skating are very popular because they allow people to keep warm while enjoying outdoors.People can exercise outdoors in beautiful surroundings:snow­covered mountains and pine trees among endless white snow. Putting oneself into the white world and breathing fresh air, one can relax and forget all worries. Of course, the practice of flying down the hills excites people.The Alps (阿尔卑斯山脉) in Europe is the most ideal place for skiing. The Rocky Mountains (落基山脉) in the Western United States is another good place.Some people call winter sports “royal sports”. That is because of their high cost. These sports always require expensive equipment. They also need high-standard places to be enjoyed.Winter sports are not as popular in China. The southern and coastal areas have no skiing and skating. And the snow-blanketed northeastern and southwestern areas have very poor equipment.But thanks to the efforts of the government, China has caught up with world class competition in short track speed skating. This is also true for women's figure (花样) skating. However, in alpine skiing events, China has a long way to go.1．Winter sports are popular in places ________.A．where it rains oftenB．near the seaC．where there is a lot of snowD．among high mountains2．Winter sports are called “royal sports” because ________.A．excellent equipment are neededB．their expenses are greatC．the best skiers are greatD．they need high­standard place s to be enjoyed3．The underlined words “the most ideal” in the fifth paragraph can be replaced by ________.A．the best B．the farthest C．the highest D．the most difficult4．The writer of this passage is probably a(n) ________.A．American B．ChineseC．Russian D．Swiss参考答案：一、1. charged2. foolish3. pain4. hopeless5. fined6. physical二、1. 答案：C解析：句意：他们以12 000美元卖了他们的房子，因此买主得了一个很好的便宜货。
