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

BI hated dinner parties .But I decided to give them another shot because Im in London. And my friend Mallery invited me . And because dinner parties in London are very different from those in New York, Im having a dinner party means : Im booking a table for 12 at a restaurant you cant afford and well be sharing the cheque evenly , no matter what you eat. Worse, in Manhattan there is always someone who leaves before the bill arrives .Theyll throw down cash, half of what they owe, and then people like me, who dont drink, end up paying even more . But if try to use the same trick , the hostess will shout; Where are you going ? And its not like I can say I have somewhere to go : everyone knows I have nowhere to go.But in London, dinner parties are in peoples homes . Not only that, the guests are an interesting mix .The last time I went to one , the guests were from France , India ,Denmark and Nigeria; it was like a gathering at the United Nations . In New York ,the mix is less striking . Its like a gathering at Bloomingdales , a well-known department store.For New Yorkers, talking ,talking about other parts of the world means Brooklyn and Queens in New Yorkers. But at Mallerys , when I side that I had been to Myanmar recently, people knew where it was , In New Yorkers people would think it was a usual club.第60题：What does the word “shot” in Paragraph I probably mean?A.

问答题Practice 6 Perhaps the most striking quality of satiric literature is its freshness, its originality of perspective. Satire rarely offers original ideas. Instead, it presents the familiar in a new form. Satirists do not offer the world new philosophies. What they do is look at familiar conditions from a perspective that makes these conditions seem foolish, harmful, or affected. Satire jars us out of complacence into a pleasantly shocked realization that many of the values we unquestioningly accept are false. Don Quixote makes chivalry seem absurd; Brave New World ridicules the pretensions of science; A Modest Proposal dramatizes starvation by advocating cannibalism. None of these ideas is original. Chivalry was suspected before Cervantes,2 humanists objected to the claims of pure science before Aldous Huxley, and people were aware of famine before Swift. It was not the originality of the idea that made these satires popular. It was the manner of expression, the satiric method, that made them interesting and entertaining. Satires are read because they are aesthetically satisfying works of art, not because they are morally wholesome or ethically instructive.
