According to theserules, basketball was to be played indoors with nine players on each team. The players were not allowed to run with the ball or slap it from another player's hands. Players were not allowed to strike an opponent or to hold on to the basket for support.The first game of basketball was played with a soccer ball and two peach baskets for goals. When a team scored a goal, the game had to be stopped, so a man could climb up and get the ball out of the basket with a long stick.The game Naismith invented had none of the aggressiveness that it has today. It was supposed to be a rough game, but Dr. Naismith believed it could be played cleanly. The players were required to throw the ball with both hands. They were not allowed to use a backboard for shooting. The first ball used in a game was a great success, and it was used until the middle of the twentieth century.After basketball grew in popularity, later inventors added new rules. Players were finally permitted to use one hand to throw the ball. And a backboard was added between the goalposts to help the player make more accurate shots. Nevertheless, basketball has remained a relatively non-aggressive sport compared to football or hockey.21. Who wrote down the oldest existing rules for basketball?A. Dr. James Naismith.B. An inventor in 1891.C. A Canadian team.D. The first soccer ball manufacturer.22. How many players were allowed on each team when basketball was first invented?A. 12.B. 11.C. 9.D. 8.23. What did the first basketball game use for goals?A. Soccer balls.B. Basketball hoops.C. Peach baskets.D. Long sticks.24. What did Dr. Naismith believe about the game he invented?A. It should involve aggressive physical contact.B. It should be played indoors.C. It could be played without aggression.D. It could be played with different sizes of balls.Passage TwoThe term "cycling" commonly refers to the activity of using a bicycle as a means of transportation or recreation. Cycling can be beneficial to individuals and the environment in several ways.Firstly, cycling is an environmentally friendly mode of transport. Unlike motor vehicles, bicycles do not consume any fossil fuels or produce harmful emissions. By choosing to ride a bicycle instead of drive a car, individuals can significantly contribute to reducing air pollution and mitigating climate change.Secondly, cycling promotes physical health and fitness. Regular cycling can lead to improved cardiovascular fitness, increased muscle strength and flexibility, and better coordination and balance. It is a low-impact exercise that is suitable for individuals of all ages and fitness levels. Incorporating cycling into one's daily routine can help prevent obesity, heart disease, and other chronic health conditions.Thirdly, cycling can enhance mental well-being. Engaging in physical activities such as cycling releases endorphins in the brain, which can help reduce stress, anxiety, and depression. Cycling outdoors also offers the opportunity to connect with nature and enjoy the scenery, which can have a calming and positive effect on mental health.25. What does the term "cycling" generally refer to?A. The use of bicycles for transportation and recreation.B. The act of riding a horse.C. The use of motor vehicles for commuting.D. The practice of jogging or running.26. How does cycling benefit the environment?A. By consuming fossil fuels.B. By producing harmful emissions.C. By reducing air pollution.D. By increasing climate change.27. What are the physical benefits of regular cycling?A. Improved coordination and balance.B. Reduced stress levels.C. Prevention of heart disease.D.

By releasing endorphins and connecting with nature.Passage ThreeSleep is an essential part of life, and it plays a vital role in maintaining our physical and mental well-being. Adequate sleep is important for various aspects of our overall health.One major benefit of sufficient sleep is improved cognitive function. Getting the recommended amount of sleep each night can enhance learning, memory, problem-solving abilities, and creativity.

Lack of sleep has been linked to various health problems, including obesity, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, and a weakened immune system. During sleep, the body repairs and rejuvenates itself, supporting proper organ function and overall physiological well-being.Furthermore, sleep affects our emotional and mental health. Sufficient sleep is essential for regulating emotions, managing stress, and maintaining psychological balance. Sleep deprivation can lead to increased irritability, mood swings, anxiety, and depression. It is also known to contribute to the development of mental health disorders such as bipolar disorder and schizophrenia.29. What does the passage mainly discuss?A. The importance of physical exercise.B. The effects of sleep on mental health.C. The benefits of a balanced diet.D. The role of creativity in cognitive function.30. How does sufficient sleep improve cognitive function?A. By impairing attention and concentration.B. By enhancing learning abilities.C. By preventing sleep deprivation.D.

Each passage is followed by five questions. For each question there are four suggested answers marked A, B, C and D. Choose one best answer and blacken the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet.Passage OneIn the old days, divers used to go down into the sea looking for ships that had sunk, because they hoped to find gold and jewels. Now divers still search for valuable things in sunken ships, but they also try to bring to the surface the ships themselves, or parts of them. The value of different kinds of metals has increased greatly over the last twenty or thirty years and even though a ship has been under the sea for many years, it may be worth a great deal.One famous sunken ship is the “Lusitania”, which sank off the southern coast of Ireland in 1915 with a loss of nearly, 1,500 lives. It has four huge propellers made of an expensive metal. Today each of those propellers is worth $ 300,000 or more. The ship lying on the sea-bed has been brought by a man called John Light. He paid about $ 1,200,000 for the whole ship. He hopes to bring up those propellers and sell them. He also hopes to sell other parts of the ship, when he has brought them to the surface, for about $ 600,000.61.Divers today try to bring to the surface .A. gold and jewelsB. parts of shipsC. whole shipsD. all of the above62.Diver try to bring up metals because.they have been in the sea for a long timegold and jewels are not valuable thingssome kinds of metals are worth a lot of moneyit is easy to bring up metals63.The word “surface” in the passage means the.A. marketB. airC. top of a liquidD. sea64.John Light hopes that he may be able to sell all the partsof the “Lusitania” for about.A. $12,000B. $300,000C. $1,200,000D. $1,800,00065.John Light bought the “Lusitania”.A. before 1915B. before it sankC. after it sankD. after they had brought up the propellersPassage TwoMan's first real invention, and one of the most important inventions in history, was the wheel. All transportation and every machine in the world depend on it. The wheel is the simplest yet perhaps the most remarkable of all inventions, because there are no wheels in nature—no living thing was ever created with wheels. How, then, did man come to invent the wheel? Perhaps some early hunters found that they could roll the carcass of a heavy animal through the forest on logs more easily than they could carry it. However, the logs themselves weighed a lot.It must have taken a great prehistoric thinker to imagine two thin slices of log connected, at their centers by a string stick. This would roll along just as the logs did, yet be much lighter and easier to handle. Thus the wheel and axle came into being and with them the first carts.66.The wheel is important because.A. it was man's first real inventionB. all transportation depends on itC. every machine depends on itD. both B and C67.The wheel is called.A. simpleB. complicatedC. strangeD. unusual68.It was remarkable of man to invent the wheel becauseA. it led to many other inventionsB. man had no use for it thenC. there were no wheels in natureD. all of the above69.The wheel was probably invented by.A. a group of early huntersB. the first men on earthC. a great prehistoric thinkerD. the man who made the first cart70.This selection says that the first wheel may have been aA. round piece of stoneB. heavy logC. piece of metalD. slice of logPassage ThreeEating in space is different from eating on earth. The food that astronauts carry with them does not look like the food you eat. Some food is carried in closed bags. It is cooked and frozen before the astronauts get it. All the water is removed from the food. In the spaceship the astronaut puts t he water back. He “shoots” hot or cold water into the food bag with a special gun. He eats the food through a small hole in the bag.Other foods come in bite sizes. The astronaut puts a whole piece in his mouth at once. There an be no crambs. Crambs would float around the spaceship and get in the way. Meat and cake often come in bite-sized pieces. Astronauts can' t drink water from open cups. The water would float in drops in the air. The water is put in the special gun. Theastronaut shoots the water into his mouth. Eating in space is not easy. Astronauts must learn to eat this way.71.Some space foods are carried in.A. water gunsB. lunch boxesC. closed bagsD. crumbs72.The story does not say this, but from what we have read, we can tell that.you get much hungrier in space than you doyou can't have water to drink in a spaceshipastronauts must learn many new and different thingsyou can't eat anything in a spaceship73.Why can't astronauts drink water from cups?The water would come from the open cups.The water would spill all over their food.Crambs would float in the cups.The cups would float in the air.74.The main idea of the whole story is that.there is more food and water in space than on eartheating and drinking in space is a special problemastronauts can never eat or drink in a spaceshipthere is no food or water in a spaceship75.Which of the following does the story lead you to believe?Food for astronauts must be made in a special way.All meat on earth comes in bite-sized pieces.Astronauts will only eat cakes made from crambs.Astronauts have to go hungry in a spaceship.Passage FourThe energy which the sun radiates goes in every direction, and only a minute part of it falls on the earth. Even so, it represents power of about 5,000,000 horsepower (马力)per square mile per day; the sun gives us as much energy every miunte as mankind utilizes in a year. At present, we use this energy indirectly, and it is our final source of power. Coal represents the chemical action of the sun on green plants thousands of years ago. Water power results from the rain formed by vapor which comes from the evaporation of water under the sunshine. Even windmills operate because of air currents set in motion by the different heating affects of the sun in different places. Some day, through chemistry or some type of solar engine, we shall harness this great source of energy more directly. Already a scientist has worked out an engine, surprisingly efficient, in which the sun's rays are concentrated through mirrors on a tube of water to create steam.76.How much energy given off by the sun reaches the earth?A. 100% but indirectly.B. 5%.C. 50%.D. only a very tiny amount.77.The reason why all the solar energy falling on the earthcan't be utilized is that.only a very small part is available the sun is too distant from the earthit takes thousands of years for this energy to be stored up in coal and oilour scientific knowledge is not sufficient78.Which of the following statements is NOT true?Even windmill's action depends on the sun.The sun produces enormous energy for man to make use of.Some day man will be able to utilize 100% of the solar energy that gets to the earth.The sun produces different heating effects in different places.79.In order to support this argument, the writer gives the example that.a machine using solar energy efficiently has already been developedthe sun is our final source of powerman uses only a tiny part of the sun's energythe part of the sun's energy we use is used indirectly80.This passage centers mainly on.harnessing energy through chemistryour last source of powerhow water power is producedthe amount of solar energy that can be utilizedV.

Other people believe that women have the ability to compete with men. There have been many famous women state leaders and great scientists in the world. We should fully carry out the principle “to each according to his work” so that the enthusiasm of both men and women for work can be fully aroused.。
