【解析】

試題分析：這篇短文主要介紹了人們把冬季奧運(yùn)會稱為白色奧運(yùn)會。屆時發(fā)行許多的郵票以標(biāo)志偉大的比賽。第一批是美國在1932年第三屆奧林匹克運(yùn)動會上發(fā)行的。在亞洲日本是唯一一個舉行過白色奧運(yùn)會的國家，在奧運(yùn)會時他們賣了145000000000張郵票。

1.People call the Winter Olympics the White Olympics.，可知冬季奧運(yùn)會和白色奧運(yùn)會是一回事，故選A.

2. first stamps came out on January 25th, 1932 in the United States for the 3rd White Olympics. From then on(從那時起), publishing stamps during the White Olympics became a rule.可知是在1932年的第三屆奧運(yùn)會后成為一種規(guī)矩，故選B

3.第一段第三屆是1932年，第二段第四屆是1936年舉行，可知是每四年舉行一次，故選C。

4.第三段When the White Olympics came, the host countries as well as non-host countries published stamps to mark those games.可知東道主或非東道主都可以發(fā)行郵票，故選C。

5.推理判斷題。根據(jù)是冬季奧運(yùn)會，所以有可能滑冰會出現(xiàn)，故選D。

考點(diǎn)：體育運(yùn)動類短文閱讀。
