问题补充：

It is just much a competition among countries to host the Olympics as an Olympic medal.

A. as ; to win

B. as; winning

C. so; to win

D. so; winning

答案：

(答案→)A. as ; to win

B. as; winning

C. so; to win

D. so; winning

解析：考查词组；as +adj+a/an+as和…一样，所以第一空填as，第二空填不定式做主语，句型是：It is +n.+to do。It是形式主语，句意是;国家之间主办奥运会的竞争就像争夺奖牌一样。选A。
