Abstract: In this paper, we prove that for every Finsler $n$-dimensional sphere $(S^n,F)$ with reversibility $lm$ and flag curvature $K$ satisfying $left(fraclm1+lmight{)}^2<Kle1$, either there exist infinitely many closed geodesics, or there exist at least two elliptic closed geodesics and each linearized Poincar'{e} map has at least one eigenvalue of the form $e^{sqrt-1h}$ with $h$ being an irrational multiple of $pi$.
