    But in 1974 it was discovered that the U.S.record was slightly better than people had been led to believe.And Norway's record was not quite as good.The discovery was a surprise and a delight to American ski fans,but even more so to American skier Anders Haugen.After fifty years,Anders got the medal he should have won back in 1924.

    解析:
    第一句提到菲尔普斯的“three Olympic records”,三项奥运荣誉,下面应该是列举。这里只有C项中有for,和前后句子并列,所以选项C正确。
    菲尔普斯对于自己在2004年稚典奥运会的回顾,最后加以总结,即“it was one of the coolest moments of my life”,意思是“那是我生命中最棒的时刻之一!”
    前面谈到“he was initially frustrated”,意思是面对暂时的失利他并没有气馁。所以,接下来应该是意思的转折,选项A正确。
    前面句子谈到他退役后的诸多打算,除了游泳、基金会,他也要开始享受生活,因此F洽当。
    因为菲尔普斯“needs time to come to terms with the significance ...”意思是 “随着他运动生涯的结束,他需要好好思考一下,好开始人生新的征程”,所以选项E正确。
