问题     Ballet training in Russia begins at age nine or ten. Whatever the limitations of ballet in the Soviet Union, it is no wonder that Russian ballet dancers perform with ease leaps and lifts seldom attempted elsewhere, and that the standard of dancing in a Russian corps de ballet is far above that usually seen in other countries-nine years of ballet discipline is almost unheard of outside Russia.
    The period devoted to dance classes increases gradually from two or three hours a day to five or six. As in other institutions of higher learning, ballet students receive monthly government stipends in their last four years, varying from 160 to 200 rubles ($16 to $20). Of the thirty pupils to begin ballet each year, fewer than twenty-five usually graduate; the others drop out because of poor health or lack of ability.
    Upon graduation, the starting salary for members of a corps de is 100 rubles a month, while prima ballerinas receive 6 000. Russia’s most famous ballet company, the Bolshoi, has first pick of each graduating class, but few dancers have the good fortune to begin with this company; all graduates, however, are assured of jobs in ballet.
    Stars such as Ulanova were produced in this fashion, with training started early and security, if not intellectual independence, guaranteed.
According to the selection, Russian corps de ballet has________.
选项 A、unusually high standards of dancing
B、greater discipline than the companies in any other country
C、more applicants than corps de ballet companies
D、more professional dancers than most ballet companies
答案A
解析 细节题。由Russian corps de ballet可将答案定位到首段第二句and that the standard of dancing in a Russian corps de ballet is far above that usually seen in other countries，该句意为“俄罗斯芭蕾舞团的舞蹈标准远超过其他国家的标准”，选项A“特别高的舞蹈标准”符合句意，故为正确选项。
