閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的四個(gè)選項(xiàng)(A、B、C和D)中,選出最佳選項(xiàng)。

  Fill in the blanks according to the passage.

  Dressed in beautiful uniforms and using English to help visitors,volunteers at the Beijing 2008 Olympics will be on the frontline(前線)in welcoming the world to China.

  Organizers of the Games say they will need more than 100,000 volunteers to help run the two Olympic weeks.“It is hoped that most of them will be college students,” said the Beijing International Volunteer Forum(北樂國(guó)際志愿者論壇),which met on December 5.A recruiting(招募)programme will be started to encourage high school students,who will be in college by that time,to work at the Olymipcs.

  “It would be a great honour to take part in such a big event,”said Qiao Cai,a Senior I teenager from Jiangxi Province.“It will be demanding work.But I think it could help broaden my horizons(眼界),improve my communication skills and develop my sense of responsibility(責(zé)任)”

  Volunteers will be required to be in good health.They should also have good manners,an awareness(意識(shí))of security issues,a knowledge of sport as well as Beijing and China's geography.Language skills and cultural background are also important.

  But the most important is a willingness to devote oneself to making the Games a success.The volunteers will not be paid and should be prepared for all sorts of jobs,some of which will be unpleasant.

  Some of the volunteers could be asked to wash thousands of dishes for other workers.Some might have to stand in the hot summer sun for a whole day to offer help.Many will not be able to spare one minute to watch the games,although they might only be metres away from the action.

  “I don't mind not getting paid and the hard work. To help at the Olympics is the duty of every Chinese,” said Yijie Gu,a 15-year-old girl Shanghai.“I am now studying hard to prepare for that exciting time.”

  Loose robes(長(zhǎng)袍)with big sleeves.High collars and long skirts.It's not a scene in a TV drama.Tying up their hair and putting on the cotton shoes, about 60 young people gathered in a Beijing teahouse Monday to perform traditional dances, music and poetry readings.

  The event was set up by Haanen.com.a(chǎn)non-governmental organization founded in 2003.It has more than 24 000 members worldwide.They all love traditional Chinese culture and believe that wearing the Han costume(服裝)is the best way to show love for China.Active members are mostly in their 20s or 30s.

  Chen Ye, a 19-year-old student, said it made her feel bad that Koreans have hanbok and Japanese have kimono while Chinese don't have a typical traditional dress.

  “Most people may think the cheongsam(旗袍)could be a representative, but I don't think so,” said Chen, from Capital University of Business and Economics.
