  答案：TRUE

  關鍵詞：record,1900

  定位原文：第1段第1句“Since the early years of the twentieth century, when the International Athletic Federation began keeping records, there has been a steady improvement in how fast athletes run, how high they jump and how far they are able to hurl massive objects, themselves included, through space.”

  解題思路：“自從20世紀早期國際田聯開始記錄成績以來……”，題干說現代官方運動員記錄始于大約1900年。因此答案為TRUE。

  Question 2

  答案：NOT GIVEN

  關鍵詞：before the twen?tieth century

  定位原文：第1段第1句“Since the early years of the twentieth century, when the International Athletic Federation began keeping records, there has been a steady improvement in how fast athletes run, how high they jump and how far they are able to hurl massive objects, themselves included, through space.”

  解題思路：很明顯體感說的與原文說的相反，故答案為FALSE。

  Question 3

  答案：FALSE

  關鍵詞：burst of energy

  定位原文：第1段第2-3句“For the so-called power…In the endurance events the results have been more dramatic.”

  解題思路：體感說運動員的成績提高幅度最大的項目是需要爆發力強的項目，而原文說的是在持久項目中，運動成績提高得更多。故答案為FALSE。

  Question 4

  答案：FALSE

  關鍵詞：genetics

  定位原文：第3段第1-2句“Identifying genetically talented individuals is only the first step. Michael Yessis, an emeritus professor of Sports Science at California State University at Fullerton, maintains that 'genetics only determines about one third of what an athlete can do.”

  解題思路：題干說的是基因在運動員的表現上起完全充分的作用。而文中說的很明顯是只有大概三分之一的決定因素。故正確答案為FALSE。

  Question 5

  答案：NOT GIVEN

  關鍵詞：parents of top athletes

  定位原文：無

  解題思路：題干中說頂尖運動員的父母通常也是很成功的運動員。而文中并未提到。

  Question 6

  答案：TRUE

  關鍵詞：gifted athletes, younger age

  定位原文：第2段第3句“Over the past century, the composition of… be identified early.”

  解題思路：題干中說運動不斷提升的國際重要性意味著有天分的運動員有可能被發現的更早。定位句中最后也說道因此現在比以往更有可能盡早發現那些獨具運動員基因的個體。故正確答案是TRUE。

  Question 7

  答案：genetics

  關鍵詞：American runners

  定位原文：第3段第4句“Yessis believes that U.S. runners, despite their impressive achievements, are 'running on their genetics.”

  解題思路：根據大寫字母American runners定位到原文第3段第4句，可知答案為genetics。

  Question 8

  答案：power

  關鍵詞：former Soviet Union

  定位原文：第3段最后一句“These methods include strength training that duplicates what they are doing in their running events as well as plyometrics, a technique pioneered in the former Soviet Union.”

  解題思路：據大寫字母former Soviet Union定位到原文第3段最后1句，原文的表述是前蘇聯率先應用plyometrics來訓練運動員，結合第4段首句：plyometrics focuses on increasing power，因此答案為power。

  Question 9

  答案：injuries

  關鍵詞：inadequate diet

  定位原文：第5段最后1句“Few coaches, for instance, understand how deficiencies in trace minerals can lead to injuries.”

  解題思路：根據inadequate diet定位到原文第5段最后l句，該段主要講營養方面對于運動員得到影響。最后一句明確指出，...deficiency in trace mineral can lead to injuries，因此答案為injuries。

  Question 10

  答案：training

  關鍵詞：key, setting

  定位原文：第6段第1句“Focused training will also play a role in enabling records to be broken.”

  解題思路：根據題目順序在原文第6段中找到答案及第2句，即打破記錄的關鍵因素為training。

  Question 11

  答案：A

  關鍵詞：Biomechanics films

  定位原文：第7段第2句至第4句“A biomechanic films an athlete…high jumpers.”

  解題思路：此題根據專有名詞Biomechanics films定位到原文第7段，這一段倒數第2句說到Dapena用這些方法幫助跳髙運動員。故正確答案為A。

  Question 12

  答案：D

  關鍵詞：Biomechanics specialists/Fosbury flop

  定位原文：第8段第2句至第4句“For example, during the 1968… own mathematical simulations.”

  解題思路：此題根據4個選項中共有的大寫字母詞匯Fosbury flop迅速定位到原文第8段第2句至第4句，原文的表述是：……生物力學專家后來對他的方法進行了分析，并理解了這一方法。答案為D。

  Question 13

  答案：B

  關鍵詞：John S. Raglin

  定位原文：最后1段第2句及第3句“'Once you study athletics, … our understanding in many cases is fundamental.”
