Really this was pretty easy and you may want to work on your free-responses as your answers was nowhere near what they were asking for. Other than that your good, but I would greatly suggest getting help with free-response. Also consider reading the passage another time as I suspect that is the reason why u were wrong as the answer was quite blatantly posted in the paragraph.
1. In ski cross, the first two skiers that cross the finish line move on to the next round. So, out of the four skiers, two of them will move on to the next round.
To find this answer, you can refer to the sentence in the passage that says, "The first two skiers that cross the finish line move on to the next round."
2. The statement "Only one skier is allowed down the slope at a time" is false.
To determine this answer, you can refer to the sentence in the passage that says, "Four skiers go down the slope at the same time, side-by-side." This indicates that in ski cross, four skiers are allowed to go down the slope together, not just one at a time.
3. In ski cross, skiers try hard not to touch other skiers.
To find this answer, you can refer to the sentence in the passage that says, "They must be able to ski close to others. They must not touch any other skier." This indicates that one of the challenges in ski cross is to avoid touching other skiers.
4. The word "banks" in the passage refers to piles of snow with sloping sides.
To determine this answer, you can refer to the sentence in the passage that says, "There are banks of snow and many other challenges on the course, too." The mention of "banks of snow" suggests that it refers to piles of snow with sloping sides, rather than other definitions like places where people deposit and withdraw money or rows of flowers.
