One winter day in 1891, a class at a training school in Massachusetts, USA, went into the gym for their daily exercises. Since the football season had ended, most of young men felt they were in for a boring time. But their teacher, James Naismith, had other ideas. He had been working for a long time on the new game that would have the excitement of American football. Naismith showed the men a basket he had hung at each end of the gym, and explained that they were going to use a round European football. At first everybody tried to throw the ball into the basket no matter where he was standing. “Pass! Pass!” Naismith kept shouting, blowing his whistle to stop the excited players. Slowly, they began to understand what was wanted of them. The problem with the new game, which was soon called “basketball”, was getting the ball out of the basket. They used ordinary baskets, with bottoms, and the ball, of course, stayed inside. At first, someone had to climb up every time when a basket was scored. It was several years before someone came up with the idea of removing the bottom of the basket and letting the ball fall through. There have been many changes in the rules since then, and basketball had become one of the world’s most popular sports.1、 When did the story happen?AIn springBIn summerCIn fallDIn winter2、 What did Naismith do to entertain his students one day?AHe taught them to play an exciting new gameBHe took them to watch a basketball gameCHe trained them to play European footballDHe let them compete in getting balls out of a basket3、 According to the write, what was the problem with the new game?AThe players had difficulty understanding the complex rulesBThe players found the basket too high to reachCThe players soon found the game boringDThe players had trouble getting the ball out of the basket4、 How was the problem with the new game solved?ABy alerting the size of the basketBBy simplifying the complex rulesCBy removing the bottom of the basketDBy lowering the position of the basket5、 Which kind of ball was used in basketball games at first?AVolleyballBSoftballCAmerican footballDBritish football

George thought that he had better ask a few questions to show how interested he was and how much he wanted to learn to fly.

Children for whom school has no pointMany children do not go to school either because their parents want them at home as carers for siblings,or simply because their parents cannot be bothered to send them.Thousands more are not registered at any school at all,because of their families'unstable lives.Underlying this dreadful situation there are two central truths.First of all,the problem of children not going to school often has more to do with their parents than with the children themselves.Secondly,once children go to school,we need to make sure that the experience is a positive one so that they want to keep on going.In Britain,the Ministry of Education has introduced a complex package of sticks and carrots to persuade Schools to bring truants'and excluded children back into the classroom.It is paying grants so that a thousand schools can set up special units to help these children.Schools receive the grant if they bring a target number of children back to school;if they do not meet the target,the grant is withdrawn.Parents are the subject of this campaign,too:the Home Office has introduced fines for parents who fail to send their children to school,and has given the police power to pick up truants on the streets.Truant=a child who does not go to school when he or she should.The Home Office__.A.has given powers to the police to pick up parentsB.will give money to parents to send children to schoolC.will go to the family and persuade parents and their childrenD.will punish parents who fail to send their children to school

共用题干第一篇Too Late to Regret ItWhen I was a junior,I met a second-year student in my department. He wasn't tall or good-looking,but he was very nice,attractive and athletic.He had something that I admired very much. He was natural,warm,and sincere.I disregarded(不顾)my parents' disapproval. We were very happy together. He picked me up from my dorm every morning,and after class we would sit alongside the stream that ran through campus, or sunbathe(晒太阳)on the lawn. At night he would walk me back to my dorm. He came from a poor family,but in order to make me happy,he borrowed money from his friend to buy presents and meals for me.Our fellow students looked up to him as a role model,and the girls envied (妒忌)me. He wasn't a local, but wanted to stay here after graduation. I thought we had a future together.However,I got a part-time job that paid pretty well during the summer vacation.With my good performance at school,I also got admission to graduate school at one of China's best universities.He,on the other hand,did not do so well at school or at work.I had to worry about his living expenses,job and scores.Almost all my colleagues and friends advised me to break up with him. Then we had a quarrel last June.He was in great pain,and my cold words and bad moods started turning him away.Graduation time was drawing near,and he said he wanted to go back to his hometown.He said that he couldn't put up with me anymore.I was shocked and looked at him in despair.True love happens only once,but I found it out too late.When did the author fall in love with the boy?A:After she had a quarrel with him.B:When she was a junior.C:When she was a second-year student.D:After she found a part-time job.
