【语篇导读】本文介绍了冬奥会的雪花和主火炬的传递、点燃，以及冬奥会导演张艺谋的设计理念。

56. 考查介词。第一段意思为：北京2022年冬奥会开幕式导演张艺谋对周五晚上的表演赞不绝口，称国家体育场主火炬的点火仪式是奥运历史上的一次创新。根据搭配describe sb./sth. as sth.“把……描述为/形容成/称为……”可得知此处填介词as。

【resounding】 (very great)巨大的；令人瞩目的

e.g. a resounding victory/win/defeat 巨大的胜利╱成功╱失败

The evening was a resounding success .

晚会办得非常圆满。

57. 考查冠词。本句句意为：在盛大的表演结束时，一片巨大的雪花充当了一个独特的“火炬”，奥运圣火在中央燃烧。由此可知，此处应该用不定冠词，但unique虽是元音字母开头，但发音不是元音音素，故填不定冠词a。

58. 考查非谓语动词。读通句子，不难看出此处是with O. O.C.的复合结构，由此得出此处考查填非谓语动词，且the Olympic flame与动词burn为主动关系，故填burning。

59. 考查名词复数。由91个国家可知，此处考查名词的复数，故填countries。

60. 考查谓语动词。本句句意为：早些时候，包括中国现役和退役运动员在内的7名火炬手完成了火炬进入鸟巢的最后传递阶段，这里也是2008年北京奥运会开幕式和闭幕式的举办地。分析句子成分，可知主语是seven torchbearers，谓语动词是设空处的complete，宾语是the final stage of the torch relay into the venue。再根据时间状语Earlier可知此处应填谓语动词过去式completed。

61. 考查谓语动词。此部分句子是接在介词as后，由where引导的宾语从句，句中缺少谓语动词，stage为动词，“上演；举办；举行”，且是过去时态，故填were staged。

62. 考查关系代词。本句句意为：两名年轻的运动员——男子北欧两项(Nordic combined)选手赵佳文和来自新疆维吾尔自治区的女子越野滑雪(cross-country skiing)选手迪尼吉尔·依拉木江——共同点燃了圣火，这被认为比以往奥运会所使用火炬的更简单。根据句意可知，此空指代前面的句子，考查非限制性发定语从句，故填which。

63. 考查指示代词。认真分析句子成分，可知此处应填代词，指代前面提到的cauldron，属于同一类事物，且此处是复数，故填those。如果是单数或者不可数名词，则填that。

64. 考查谓语动词。本句句意为：张艺谋说，置于雪花中心位置的圣火，象征着人类的起源，受到世界人民的保护和关心，这样它就可以代代相传。根据句意可知，此处考查情态动词后接动词原形的用法， 且为被动语态，故填be passed。

【pass sth.←→down】使世代相传；流传

65. 考查副词。此处考查形容词改副词的用法，填Especially，注意首字母大写。
