【分析】

这是一篇说明文。众所周知，花样滑冰始于19世纪中期，当时一位名叫Jackson Haines的美国人第一次将舞蹈和滑冰结合在一起。文章介绍花样滑冰的历史及有关信息。

36．A根据上文“Figure skating, as we know, got its start in the mid-19th century, when an American named Jackson Haines combined dancing and skating for the first time. Americans did not accept Haines' technique at that time.(众所周知，花样滑冰起源于19世纪中叶，当时一位名叫Jackson Haines的美国人首次将舞蹈和滑冰结合在一起。当时美国人并不接受Haines的技术)”可知，上文提到美国人不接受Haines的技术，推测本句与上文构成因果关系，指出Haines对此的反应：搬到了奥地利的维也纳。故A选项“因此他搬到了奥地利的维也纳。”符合语境，故选A。

37．F根据上文“Figure skating become an Olympic sport before there were Winter Games.(在冬奥会之前，花样滑冰就成为了一项奥运会项目)”以及后文“Ice dancing joined the Olympics in 1976, when the Games were held in Innsbruck, Austria.(1976年在奥地利因斯布鲁克举行的奥运会上，冰上舞蹈成为奥运会的一项比赛项目)”可知，本段主要是在介绍花样滑冰在奥运会的发展情况，故F选项“双人和单人项目首次出现在1908年的伦敦夏季奥运会上。”符合语境，故选F。

38．G根据上文“In singles skating, each skater performs a short routine of required steps.(在单人滑比赛中，每位选手都要完成一个简短的规定步骤)”可知，上文提到了单人滑比赛有简短的规定步骤，可知本句承接上文继续说明这些步骤是什么。G选项中They对应上文中steps。故G选项“它们是跳跃、旋转和组合，以及较长的自由滑冰例行程序。”符合语境，故选G。

39．C根据后文“But unlike pairs skating, ice dance does not include overhead lifts andjumps. An ice dance competition is made up of three parts: one set to music that has a required rhythm, and two parts set to whatever music the ice dancers choose.(但与双人滑冰不同的是，冰上舞蹈不包括高空升降和跳跃。冰上舞蹈比赛由三部分组成：一组是有节奏的音乐，另两部分是冰上舞蹈者选择的音乐)”可知，本段主要介绍的是冰上舞蹈，C选项中Ice dance对应后文中ice dance。故C选项“冰上舞蹈也由一男一女表演。”符合语境，故选C。

40．E根据上文“A panel of nine judges scores the quality of each figure skating performance, but only seven out of nine scores are used. To determine which judges' scores will be used, there is a random draw before each event. Skaters are given a grade for each step, jump, spin, or any other element that is part of their routine. They also receive an “overall” score for each performance.(由九名评委组成的评审团会对每一项花样滑冰表演的质量打分，但只有九分中的七分被使用。为了确定将使用哪个裁判的分数，在每个比赛前会有一个随机抽签。滑冰选手的每一步、跳跃、旋转或任何其他动作都有一个分数。他们每一次的表现也会得到一个综合分数)”可知，上文提到了给花样滑冰表演进行打分，本句为本段最后一句，故打分的结果就是选出获胜者。故E选项“总分最高的人或队伍为获胜者。”符合语境，故选E。
