The first true piece of sports equipment that man invented was the ball.In ancient Egypt,as everywhere,pitching(投掷) stones was a favourite children’s game.But a badly thrown rock could hurt a child.Looking for something less dangerous to throw,the Egyptians made what was probably the first ball.
At first,balls were made of grass or leaves held together by vines.Later they were made of pieces of animal skin sewed together and filled tightly with feathers or hay.Even if the Egyptians were warlike,they found time for peaceful games.Before long they had developed a number of ball games,each with its own set of rules.Perhaps they played ball more for instruction than for fun.Ball playing was thought of mainly as a way to teach young men the speed and skill they would need for war.

Children have their own rules in playing games.They seldom need a referee and rarely trouble to keep scores.They don’t care much about who wins or loses,and it doesn’t seem to worry them if the game is not finished.Yet,they like games that depend a lot on luck,so that their personal abilities cannot be directly compared.They also enjoy games that move in stages,in which each stage,the choosing of leaders,the picking-up of sides,or the determining of which side shall start,is almost a game in itself.
Grown-ups can hardly find children’s games exciting,and they often feel puzzled at why their kids play such simple games again and again.However,it is found that a child plays games for very important reasons.He can be a good player without having to think whether he is a popular person,and he can find himself being a useful partner to someone of whom he is ordinarily afraid.He becomes a leader when it comes to his turn.He can be confident,too,in particular games,that it is his place to give orders,to pretend to be dead,to throw a ball actually at someone,or to kiss someone he has caught.
It appears to us that when children play a game they imagine a situation under their control.Everyone knows the rules,and more importantly,everyone plays according to the rules.Those rules may be childish,but they make sure that every child has a chance to win.
29.What is true about children when they play games?
A.They can stop playing any time they like.
B.They can test their personal abilities.
C.They want to pick a better team.
D.They don’t need rules.
答案:A
解析:细节理解题。由第一段中的“They don’t care much about who wins or loses,and it doesn’t seem to worry them if the game is not finished.”可知孩子们对游戏是否还没有结束并不在意,说明孩子们玩的游戏随时都可中止。
30.To become a leader in a game the child has to .
A.play well
24
B.wait for his turn
C.be confident in himself
D.be popular among his playmates
答案:B
解析:推理判断题。由第二段中的“He becomes a leader when it comes to his turn.”可推知孩子们在做游戏时轮流当领导者。
31.What do we know about grown-ups?
A.They are not interested in games.
B.They find children’s games too easy.
C.They don’t need a reason to play games.
D.They don’t understand children’s games.
答案:B
解析:细节理解题。由第二段开头一句话可知答案。
32.Why does a child like playing games?
A.Because he can be someone else other than himself.
B.Because he can become popular among friends.
C.Because he finds he is always lucky in games.
D.Because he likes the place where he plays a game.
答案:A
解析:推理判断题。由第二段可知孩子们喜欢做游戏的原因是,在游戏中,他可以变成另外一个人。
D

The most popular PE class at Waukegan High School in Illinois,US,takes place in a basement field house.
It is the school’s version of CrossFit,the difficult physical exercise that has exploded in popularity over the last 16 years at thousands of gyms.It has more than one million devotees(爱好者) and a professional competition shown on ESPN.
Schools around the Chicago area have adopted CrossFit to interest students at a time of a rising weight problem among young people,and most say it really works compared with traditional gym classes.
“I think it’s a great way to teach kids lifelong fitness,especially those kids who aren’t interested in hockey(曲棍球),soccer or basketball,” said the teacher,Tracy Haraf from Illinois’ Stony Creek Elementary,which devotes half of its PE days to CrossFit exercises.“They think it’s tough,but I think they have a lot of fun doing it.”
Senior Alexus Wiltz,18,said the workout had improved her performance on the basketball court.“I noticed I was faster.I paid more attention on the court.My defending was better,”she said after a recent class.“It just really helped me.”
But some doctors and researchers advise caution,saying the exercises that involve lifting weights can lead to injuries,particularly when performed by a few inexperienced people.
Doctor Craig Finlayson at Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago said he was worried that while strength training was fine for kids,heavy weights could be trouble for teenagers who might hurt themselves by trying to do too much or using poor form.
CrossFit Inc,the company that certifies(证明) trainers and licenses gyms,disagrees that its program is more dangerous than other fitness routines.Gym teachers in Waukegan’s Greg Moisio,whose two-campus school has about 73% kids taking CrossFit each day,also say the risk of injury can be reduced with proper teaching and CrossFit’s flexibility(灵活性).
33.Why have schools around the Chicago area adopted CrossFit?
A.To improve students’ performance in competitive sports.
B.To introduce something more challenging to the students.
24
C.To help solve the students’ weight problem.
D.To make traditional gym classes more attractive.
答案:C
解析:细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“Schools around the Chicago area have adopted CrossFit to interest students at a time of a rising weight problem among young people”可知,是为了帮助解决学生的体重问题。故选C项。
34.What does the underlined word “workout” in Paragraph 5 refer to?
A.Wiltz’s performance. B.The basketball court.
C.The physical exercise. D.A lot of fun.
答案:C
解析:词义猜测题。根据第五段中的“the workout had improved her performance on the basketball court.‘I noticed I was faster.I paid more attention on the court.My defending was better,’ she said after a recent class.‘It just really helped me.’” 可知workout指的是身体练习。故选C项。
35.What can we learn from the last paragraph?
A.CrossFit is more dangerous than other fitness routines.
B.The number of the injured in CrossFit classes is rising.
C.A great number of kids taking CrossFit lack flexibility.
D.Kids may protect themselves if they’re trained properly.
答案:D
解析:推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句“also say the risk of injury can be reduced with proper teaching and CrossFit’s flexibility(灵活性)”可知,如果孩子们正常训练,他们能保护自己。故选D项。
