Questions 81 to 85 are based on the following passage:

　　Although we do not know the exact origin of the earliest Olympic games, we do know that the ancient Greeks had a festival in which athletes (運(yùn)動(dòng)員) competed in sports. On the opening day of the festival, perhaps 30,000 visitors crowded the streets. There were no sports on this day and the athletes took a sacred oath (神圣的誓言). They promised to play fair in the sports, a promise that is part of the oath Olympic athletes take today.

　　On the second morning of the festival, young athletes ran out onto the field. The first event will be a foot race 607 feet in length. In the evening, after the sports, the visitors to Olympia would enjoy food, songs and speeches. They also did some business. At Olympia, keen minds (學(xué)者) from all over Greece exchanged ideas. Philosophers argued before the public. Poets recited their poems.

　　This celebration was held every four years and was open to all men and boys who spoke Greek as their native language. The competition itself consisted of a single race and it was over in one day.

　　The Olympic games came into being in 776 BC (before the Christ) and were most popular around the fifth century BC. At that time, the winner of a game received neither gold nor silver but a simple crown of olive leaves (橄欖葉) -- the highest honor a Greek could win. His family and his city were prouder of his victory than of winning a war. His name and achievement were carved on stone.

　　The first of the modern Olympics took place in the same country as the original festivals: two hundred eighty-five athletes from thirteen countries competed in Athens in 1890. Today over ten thousand athletes from over one hundred seventy countries and regions compete --- every four years in a different city of the world.

　　Questions 85 to 90 are based on the following passage:

　　A certain hunter had found a piece of forest where there were plenty of animals to hunt. The only trouble was that the place was very difficult to get to.

　　He returned from his first visit to the place in late autumn, and could not get back until the snow melted in the following spring. Then he went to the pilot of a small plane, who earned his living by carrying hunters over parts of the country where there were no roads and no railways. He asked the pilot to take him back to the piece of forest.

　　The pilot did not know the place, so the hunter showed it to him on the map. "But there is nowhere to land there," said the pilot. "I have flown over that we can't land anywhere between this river and these mountains."

　　"I thought you were a wonderful pilot," said the hunter, "some of my friends said you could land a plane on a postage stamp."

　　"That's right," answered the pilot. "I can land a plane where nobody else can. But I tell you there is nowhere to land in the place you are talking about."

　　"And what if I tell you that another pilot did land me there last spring?" said the hunter.

　　"Is that true?" asked the pilot.

　　"Yes, it is. I swear (發(fā)誓) it."

　　Well, this pilot could not let himself beaten by another, so he agreed to take the hunter.

　　When they reached the place, the hunter pointed out a small spot without trees in the middle of the forest, with a steep rise (陡坡) at one end. The pilot thought there was not enough room to land there, but the hunter said that the other pilot had done so the year before, so down went the plane. When it came to the rise, it turned right over (翻轉(zhuǎn)) onto its back. As the hunter climbed out, he smiled happily and said, "Yes, that is exactly how the other pilot managed it last time."
