Don’t complain in the NBA
The NBA has a new rule this season. It’s called “zero tolerance”. NBA referees are not letting players complain too long or too loudly about a referee’s call. A player who does can be given a technical foul (犯规). Two technical fouls, and the player is out of the game.
The players don’t like the new rule and want the NBA to change it. They think it’s only natural to get angry during a close, hard-fought game if a call goes against you.
But I like the “zero tolerance” rule and wish other sports would follow the NBA’s example. Wouldn’t it be more enjoyable if football, soccer and tennis players stopped arguing the calls and just played the game?
The biggest reason I like the new rule is that it sets a good example to younger players. When kids see stars such as Rasheed Wallace of the Detroit Pistons shouting at the referees and arguing every call, they think it’s part of the game. But shouting at referees and arguing calls should never be part of any kid’s games. Kids should be taught to forget about the referees’ calls and pay attention to improving their skills and play their best.
All players need to learn that you control only one thing in a game, and that’s your own performance. You can’t control what the other players or trainers do. And you certainly can’t control the calls the referees make.
Finally, everyone from NBA all-stars to 8-year-olds should remember that being a basketball referee is a hard job. The referee has to make dozens of sudden calls. No hesitation. No second chances. Not even the best referee gets every call right.
Maybe if the players, trainers and fans who shout at the referees had to wear a whistle and call a few games, there wouldn’t be as many complaints about the “zero tolerance” rule.

试题分析:文章介绍现在篮球的新规则“zero tolerance”,和球员以及作者对于这个规则的看法。
小题1:句意转化题:从第一段的句子:NBA referees are not letting players complain too long or too loudly about a referee’s call. 该题使用了“同义不同法”表达。Let sb do等于be allowed/permitted to do sth.填allowed / permitted
小题2:句意转化题:从第一段的句子:Two technical fouls, and the player is out of the game. 对裁判抱怨两次以上,就会被罚下场,be out of the game="be" driven/put out of the court所以用driven / put / picked / let / ordered / kicked/called / forced / fouled合理。
小题3:原词重现:从第二段的句子:The players don’t like the new rule and want the NBA to change it.可知这是队员的观点:players’
小题4:词性转化题:从第二段的句子:The players don’t like the new rule and want the NBA to change it.可知主动变成被动:changed
小题5:词性转化题:从第二段的句子:They think it’s only natural to get angry during a close, hard-fought game if a call goes against you. 可知在there be 句型中的主语后要用分词作后置定语,所以写出going 为正确。Going
小题6:原词重现题:从第三段的句子;Wouldn’t it be more enjoyable if football, soccer and tennis players stopped arguing the calls and just played the game?此句为虚拟语气。填st opped / quitted
小题7:词性转化题:从文章第四段的句子:The biggest reason I like the new rule is that it sets a good example to younger players. it sets a good example to younger players.如用助动词强调就必须是: ―does set 用动词原形:set
小题8:原词重现题:从第四段的句子;Kids should be taught to forget about the referees’ calls and pay attention to improving their skills and play their best.可知孩子应该被教育提高自己的技能, 填 improving
小题9:原词重现题:从第五段的句子;All players need to learn that you control only one thing in a game, and that’s your own performance. You can’t control what the other players or trainers do. 说明球员只能学会控制自己的比赛,而无法控制其它---比如,别的球员、教练、尤其是裁判的执法。填 performance
小题10:句意理解题:从第六段的句子;Finally, everyone from NBA all-stars to 8-year-olds should remember that being a basketball referee is a hard job.可知做裁判是不容易的(难的): difficult /hard
