There was a surprising finish to this year’s Miss Universe contest. At first, it looked as if Colombia’s contestant had won. But it turned out the show’s host announced the wrong winner. Steve Harvey read the name of the second-place finisher, Ariadna Gutierrez Arevalo, as the new Miss Universe. She and Pia Alonzo Wurtzbach of Philippines, who thought she had finished second, hugged. Arevalo accepted the crown and waved to the crowd, thinking she was the winner. Harvey then realized he made a mistake. "I have to apologize, " he said, while standing next to Arevalo. Then he awarded the crown to the real winner. The crown went to Wurtzbach. Wurtzbach looked shocked. Arevalo looked confused. The audience screamed. It was an awkward moment for everyone. Harvey said he misread the card he had been given. The episode led to a long night of confusion, hurt feelings and apologies. "Nobody feels worse than me, " Harvey told reporters after the show. Harvey wrote about the mistake on Twitter, saying, "I’d like to apologize wholeheartedly to Miss Colombia and Miss Philippines for my huge mistake. I feel terrible."
5. What is the news report mainly about?
6. Who actually won the Miss Universe?
7. What led to the mistake?
选项
A、The host of Miss Universe contest felt worse of the result.
B、The host of Miss Universe contest announced the wrong winner.
C、The contestant from Philippines won Miss Universe.
D、Contestants of Miss Universe were unsatisfied with the result.
答案
B
解析
新闻开篇通常会对整篇新闻的内容进行一个概述,是主旨题的关键所在。本篇新闻开头提到环球小姐大赛的最后非常surprising,之后具体指出surprising是说主持一开始时宣布错了冠军得主(announced the wrong winner)。之后详述了这个失误的过程及后果,故B“环球小姐大赛主持人宣布错冠军得主”为答案。A错在the result,主持人感到沮丧(feel worse)的是他的失误,而非比赛的结果。C“来自菲律宾的选手赢得了环球小姐”的确是事实,但新闻关注点并不是谁获得冠军。D“比赛的选手对结果不满”未在新闻中提到。
