        During his life Dr James Naismith worked as a doctor, taught P.E and wrote several books. While he
    never thought it very important, Dr Naismith is today best known for one thing. He was the inventor of
    basketball.
        Dr James Naismith was born in Canada in 1861 and his first job was at a special sports school in the
    USA. One day the school principal told James he was having a problem with the students. Because of
    heavy snow, the students could not go outside. He told James that they needed a sport the boys could
    play indoors and gave the teacher two weeks to think of something.
        It was on the very last day that James came up with his idea. The "birth of basketball" is said to be on
    December 21, 1891, when two teams from the school played the first game. It was quite different from
    the basketball  games of  today. It  had 9  players on  each  team and  footballs were used  instead  of
    basketballs. Soon after, the game changed to 5 players on each side, using special "basketballs" through
    nets.
        Although Dr Naismith did not live to see basketball become the worldwide game it is today, in 1936,
    just three years before his death, basketball became an Olympic sport at the games in Berlin.
    1. Which of the following things did Dr James Naismith NOT do?
    A. Teach P.E in school.
    B. Write some books.
    C. Work at hospital.
    D. Take part in the Olympic Games.
    2. In which season did Dr Naismith invent basketball?
    A. Summer.
    B. Winter.
    C. Spring.
    D. Autumn.
    3. Why is December 21 thought to be the birthday of basketball?
    A. It was on this day that Dr Naismith came up with his idea for basketball.
    B. It was the day on which Dr Naismith was born.
    C. It was the day on which Dr Naismith was asked by his boss to invent a new game.
    D. It was on this day that the first game of basketball was played.
    4. At the time of Dr Naismith's death, which of the following was true?
    A. Basketball was already a worldwide game.
    B. Basketball was played with 9 players on each side.
    C. Basketball was an Olympic sport.
    D. Basketball was still played using footballs.
    5. What would be the best title for this story?
    A. History of Basketball
    B. How Basketball Has Changed
    C. Father of Basketball
    D. Happy Birthday, Basketball

    阅读下面的短文，并根据短文后的要求答题。
    Tigers are fierce animals. They are the bosses of the Asian jungles with their cleverness, quickness and strength. A pussycat, on the other hand, is a homebody that comforts us with its gentle warmth and calms us with its purring.
    As a mother, the Chinese-American writer Amy Chua is definitely a tiger. Her book, Battle Hymn of the Tiger Mother(虎妈战歌) . tells of the strict upbringing she gave her two children. She thinks that being strict is the only way to develop a child's potential( 潜力) and to make them strong, independent and successful. Her kids were not allowed to watch TV or play video games. They were not allowed to "hang out" with other kids after school. They had to be the top students in their classes. And they had to practice the piano and violin for hours every day. As a result, her kids became successful. She admits this caused a lot of tears and anger but she has few regrets (后悔).
    Chua says, like her, most Asian mothers are tigers because they believe their children can achieve a lot if they're pushed hard enough. She says American mothers are really pussycats. They care more about their children's self-esteem (自尊). They don't want to push their kids too hard for fear of hurting their feelings. American mothers encourage their children to find their own path.
    So, is a tiger mom better than a pussycat? Perhaps it depends on the differences between Asian and Western cultures. It may also depend on the child himself. Some kids need to be pushed while others respond to a gentler hand. To growl or to purr? There is no easy answer.
