    A. right B. wrong C. not mentioned
    4.B. 細(xì)節(jié)題。利用問題句中的特征詞Ronaldo和Brazil president共同作為答案線索, 在文章中查找答案相關(guān)句:
     These days, fashion models and pop starts are not the only people who have to watch their waistline. Football players who miss a few kicks and let their belly hanging out a little too much are likely to be attacked by rabid fans or even the president of a country.
     The latest football star to draw the attention of the “fat police” is Barcelona’s Ronaldinho, 26. last Friday, a Spanish sports daily published two photos of the Brazilian start without his shirt. One was taken in November 2003; the other was taken this month. In the most recent one, the star’s waistline seems to have a little extra padding.
     Another Spanish sports daily published similar before-and-after photos and argued that the star has “l(fā)ost his explosiveness and velocity” and is “worn out”. The cause, according to the news paper, is his poor physical fitness.
     However, the player’s coach, frank Rijkaard, insists that he’s satisfied with Ronaldinho’s form and fitness. And after Barcelona’s victory over Atheltic Bibao on Sunday, Ronaldinho challenged photographers to take pictures of him when he took off his shirt.
     “I don’t have anything to hide,”he said.
     Fellow(伙伴, 朋友) Brazilian Ronaldo, 30, of Real Madrid(馬德里), faced(面臨,面向) similar (相似的)criticism (批評(píng))before the 2006 World Cup(世界杯). But the criticism didn’t come from (來自)a bunch of (一群)sports reporters(記者): it came from the president of Brazil.
     (第7段) “So, what is it?”Brazil’s President(總統(tǒng)) Luiz Inacio Lula Silva asked(問,要求) the national(國(guó)家的) soccer(足球) team’s coach(教練) in his office (在他的辦公室)last June(六月), according to (根據(jù))the Associated Press(美國(guó)聯(lián)合通訊社). “Is he (Ronaldo)fat(胖的) or not?”
     第7段中巴西總統(tǒng)詢問“Ronaldo是胖還是瘦?”可見巴西總統(tǒng)關(guān)注Ronaldo的體型, 因此問題句的內(nèi)容與文章中相關(guān)信息內(nèi)容不一致。
