The long journey is ________ for the old man.


  1. A.
    much too
  2. B.
    too much
  3. C.
    too many
  4. D.
    so many
B
解析:too many (太多) 和so many (这么多) 都用来修饰可数名词复数,题干中空格后并没有名词复数,故排除C、D两项。much too用来修饰形容词或副词,而空格后为介词短语,故再排除A项。B项too much有“过分”之意,常用“be too much for sb”这一结构,表示某事是某人在精神上、体力上或经济上所无法承受的。句意为:这老人无法承受这样的长途旅行。故选B。

一部哈利波特风靡了整个世界,想了解它背后的故事以及作者的情况吗?

J. K. Rowling is the writer of Harry Potter, which is now one of the best sellers in the world. J. K. Rowling was born in Bristol on July 31st, 1965.

  Basketball is still a young game. It is not yet a hundred years old. In the winter of 1891, a certain college was having trouble with its boy students. The weather was so terrible that the students had to stay indoors(室内). Since they could not enjoy their sports outside as usual, they were unhappy, and some of them even got into fights from time to time.

  Finally, one of the teachers at the college, J. E. Naismith, was asked to invent a new game for the students. It was not an easy job because such a game had to be played indoors, and the court(场地)was not very large.

  Naismith thought for a few days and invented a kind of ball game. It was a fast, exciting game with much moving and passing of the ball. It was played between two teams. To make a score(得分), the ball had to be thrown into a basket ten feet high above the floor on the wall. At each end of the court there was such a basket. At first, Naismith had planned(计划)to have the ball thrown into a box. As he could not find boxes of the right size, he had to use fruit baskets instead. That is how the game got its name.
