高三英语单项填空简单题查看答案及解析

For an entire decade, the award for Best FIFA Men’s Player of the Year was quite predictable: It either went to Portugal’s Cristiano Ronaldo or Argentina’s Lionel Messi. After all, they are the “legends” of soccer.

This year’s recipient, however, came as a surprise: Croatian player Luka Modric.

For those who aren’t soccer fans, Modric’s name is probably unfamiliar, mostly due to the fact that he rarely appears in TV commercials, and that he’s not a striker—things that apply to both Ronaldo and Messi—but a midfielder.

But Modric, 33, has certainly had a fruitful year. As a key member of Real Madrid, Modric helped the Spanish club win their third straight Champions League title in May. And as the captain of his national team of Croatia, Modric led the team to its first ever World Cup final in July.

And Modric’s hard childhood makes his achievements even more remarkable.

He grew up during the war following the break-up of Yugoslavia and the independence of Croatia. When he was 6, his grandfather was shot dead and his family had to live as refugees in a warzone. When playing soccer was an after-school hobby for kids of his age in other countries, it was an escape for Modric—he played soccer as a way to take his mind off the hardship his family was facing.

But it was this experience that gave Modric the mental toughness to push forward on his path to becoming one of the top soccer players in the world.

“The war made me stronger,” Modric told CNN. “We are not easy people to break. And there is a determination to show that, to show that we can succeed.”

It may be true that Modric wasn’t seen as a legend before. But by winning the Best Men’s Player award on Sept 24, he joined Ronaldo and Messi at the top of the list of the world’s best soccer players. And what could be more legendary than that? So, the man who defeated legends must be something even bigger.

1.Cristiano Ronaldo and Messi are mentioned in the passage to ________.

A.distinguish their differences B.show their contribution to soccer

C.highlight Modric’s achievements D.arouse the readers interest in soccer

2.Why did Modric start playing soccer?

A.Playing soccer was his hobby. B.He wanted to help his family out of trouble.

C.Playing soccer was required by his school. D.He expected to forget his family’s tough situation.

3.What can we learn about Modric from the passage?

A.He is captain of Real Madrid.

B.He often works as an advertising spokesperson.

C.He plays the same position as Cristiano Ronaldo.

D.He has made history for Croatia on the soccer field.

4.What does the passage intend to tell us?

A.Where there is life, there is hope.

B.Hardship makes a determined person stronger.

C.Whatever is worth doing is worth doing well.

D.A contented mind is the greatest blessing a man can enjoy in this world.

I grew up in a house where the TV was seldom turned on and with one wall in my bedroom entirely lined with bookshelves, most of my childhood was spent on books I could get hold of.

With this unshakable belief, I, at. fourteen, decided to become a writer. Here too, reading became useful. Every writer starts off knowing that he has something to say, but being unable to find the right ways to say it.
