共用题干Recreation and Sports1."All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy."is a popular saying in the United States. Other countries have similar sayings.It is true that all of us need recreation,We cannot work all the time if we are going to maintain good health and enjoy life.Good physical and mental health in fact enables us to work more efficiently.2.Everyone has his own way of relaxing. Perhaps the most popular way is to participate in sports.There are team sports,such as baseball,basketball and football.There are individual sports, also,such as golf and swimming. In addition,hiking,fishing,skating and mountain climbing have a great attraction for people who like to be outdoors.Chess,card-playing,and dancing are forms of indoor recreation enjoyed by many people.3.Not everyone who enjoys sporting events likes to participate in them. Many people prefer to be spectators,either by attending the games in person,watching them on television,or listening to them on the radio.When there is an important baseball game or boxing match,it is almost impossible to get tickets;everyone wants to attend.4.It doesn't matter whether we play a fast game of ping-pong,concentrate over the bridge table (桥牌桌),or go walking through the woods on a brisk(清新的)autumn afternoon. It is important for everyone to relax from time to time and enjoy some form of recreation.Participating indoor sports or outdoor sports is a good way______.A:must be very boringB:some kind of recreationC:participating in themD:to relax oneseffE:to choose one's own way of relaxingF:Good physical and mental health

共用题干American SportsThe United States is a sports-loving nation.Sports in America take a variety of forms;organized competitive struggles,which draw huge crowds to cheer their favorite team to victory;athletic games,played for recreation anywhere sufficient space is found;and hunting and fishing.Most sports are seasonal,so that what is happening in sports depends upon the time of year. Some sports are called spectator sports,as the number of spectators greatly exceeds the number playing in the game.Baseball is the most popular sport in the US.It is played throughout the spring and summer, and professional baseball teams play well into the fall.Although no other game is exactly like base-ball,perhaps the one most nearly like it is the English game of cricket.Football is the most popular sport in the fall.The game originated as a college sport more than 75 years ago.It is still played by almost every college and university in the country,and the football stadiums of some of the largest universities seat as many as 80,000 people.The game is not the same as European football or soccer. In American football there are 11 players on each team,and they are dressed in padded uniforms and helmets,because the game is rough and injuries are likely to occur.Basketball is the winter sport in American schools and colleges.Like football,basketball origi-nated in the US and is not popular in other countries.Many Americans prefer it to football because it is played indoors throughout the winter and because it is a faster game.It is a very popular game with high schools,and in more than 20 states,state-wide high school matches are held yearly.Other spectator sports include wrestling,boxing,and horse racing.Although horse-racing fans call themselves sportsmen,the accuracy of term is questionable,as only the jockeys who ride the horses in the races can be considered athletes.The so-called sportsmen are the spectators,who do "not assemble"primarily to see the horse race,but to bet upon the outcome of each race.Gambling is the attraction of horse racing.The professional baseball teams that play well are allowed to play in the fall after the regular baseball seasons of spring and summer.A:Right B:Wrong C:Not mentioned

共用题干American sports are quite distinct from those played elsewhere in the world.The top four spectator team sports are American football,baseball,basketball,and ice hockey.Baseball is the oldest among these sports.The professional game dates from 1869 and has no close rivals in popularity until the 1960s;though baseball is no longer the most popular sport,it is still referred to as the nationa! pastime.Little boys play baseball in parks and empty lots,in streets and in alleys;and picnics all through the hot summer months include at least a few innings(回合)of baseball with boys and girls, young and old,taking turns at bat. Probably no American was very surprised to read in the newspapers that when a United States atomic submarine surfaced at the North Pole,the crewmen played a game of baseball.Also unlike the professional levels of the other popular spectator sports in the U.S.,Major League Baseball teams play almost every day from April to October. American football(known simply as"football"in the U.S.)now attracts more television viewers than baseball;however, National Football League teams play only 16 regular -season games each year,so baseball is the great leader in ticket sales.The really important professional players are members of the 24 teams in America's two major baseball leagues.Each summer they are America's national heroes.At the end of the season,when the two top teams play against each other to find the winner of the"World Series",excitement and tension rise in cities all over the country.Fans make long trips to watch the games and to shout from their seats in the bleachers(廉价座位).Millions of others tune in on radio and television,sometimes making it a topic of conversation.And long after it is all over,baseball fans talk over the scores and the players,inning by inning,and the batting averages of the players this year compared to other years.(Batting averages show the percentage of times a player hits the ball effectively)The President of the United States is invited to start the season each year by tossing the ball into the first game in Washington D.C.一and he rarely fails to come.American sports are quite similar to sports played elsewhere in the world.A:Right B:Wrong C:Not mentioned
