When the modern Olympic Games  44   in 1896, the organizers knew this  45  . The marathon has been a race  46  that time.

In the ancient world the Olympic Games were held  47   four years of 1000 years. They were an important part of life. In the  48   Games we try to copy their  49   . The finest sportsmen in the world are collected in one place   50   at least the finest “amateurs（業(yè)余愛好者 ） ” are. An amateur is someone who does not earn 51  money from sport.

Why play games? Because they are fun, and a lot more besides. Following the rules... planning your next move... acting as a team member... these are all "game" ideas that you will come across throughout your life.

Think about some of the games you played as a young child, such as rope-jumping and hide-and-seek. Some games are entertaining and fun. But perhaps more importantly, they translate life into exciting dreams that teach children some of the basic rules they will be expected to follow the rest of their lives, such as taking turns and cooperating（合作）.

Many children's games have a practical side. Children around the world play games that prepare them for work they will do as grown-ups. For instance, some Saudi Arabian children play a game called bones, which sharpens the hand-eye coordination（協(xié)調(diào)） needed in hunting.

    Many sports encourage national or local pride. The most famous games of all, the Olympic Games, bring athletes from around the world together to take part in friendly competition. People who watch the event wave flags, knowing that a gold medal is a win for an entire country, not just the athlete who earned it. For countries experiencing natural disasters or war, an Olympic win can mean so much.

    Sports are also an event that unites people. Soccer is the most popular sport in the world. People on all continents play it--some for fun and some for a living. Nicolette Iribarne, a Californian soccer player, has discovered a way to spread hope through soccer. He created a foundation to provide poor children with not only soccer balls but also a promising future.

Next time you play your favorite game or sport, think about why you enjoy it, what skills are needed, and whether these skills will help you in other aspects of your life.

The underlined part in Paragraph 2 most probably means that games can ____.

A. describe life in an exciting way

B. turn real-life experiences into a play

C. make learning life skills more interesting

D. change people's views of sporting events

According to the passage, why is winning Olympic medals so encouraging?

A. It inspires people's deep love for the country.

B. It proves the exceptional skills of the winners.

C. It helps the country out of natural disasters.

D. It earns the winners fame and fortunes.

Iribarne's goal of forming the foundation is to ____.

A. bring fun to poor kids                                 

B. provide soccer balls for children

C. give poor kids a chance for a better life 

D. attract soccer players to help poor kids

What can be inferred from the passage?

A. Games benefit people all their lives.    

B. Sports can get all athletes together.

C. People are advised to play games for fun.

D. Sports increase a country's competitiveness.

Sports can help you keep fit and get in touch with nature. However, whether you are on the mountains, in the waves, or on the grassland, you should be aware that your sport of choice might have great influence on the environment.  

Some sports are resource-hungry. Golf, as you may know, eats up not only large areas of countryside, but also tons of water. Besides, all sorts of chemicals and huge amounts of energy are used to keep its courses （球場） in good condition. This causes major environmental effects. For example, in the dry regions of Portugal and Spain, golf is often held responsible for serious water shortage in some local areas.  

There are many environment-friendly sports. Power walking is one of them that you could take up today. You don’t need any special equipment except a good pair of shoes; and you don’t have to worry about resources and your purse. Simple and free, power walking can also keep you fit. If you walk regularly, it will be good for your heart and bones. Experts say that 20 minutes of power walking daily can make you feel less anxious, sleep well and have better weight control.  

Whatever sport you take up, you can make it greener by using environment-friendly equipment and buying products made from recycled materials. But the final goal should be “green gyms”. They are better replacements for traditional health clubs and modern sports centers. Members of green gyms play sports outdoors, in the countryside or other open spaces. There is no special requirement for you to start your membership. And best of all, it’s free.  

　　64. Which of the following is the author most probably in favor of?

　　A. Cycling around a lake.

　　B. Motor racing in the desert.

　　A. It is popular in Portugal and Spain.

　　B. It causes water shortages around the world.

　　C. It pollutes the earth with chemicals and wastes.

　　B. it improves our health

　　C. it uses fewer resources

　　D. it is recommended by experts

　　67. The author writes the passage to_______.

“Tear them apart！”“Kill the fool！”“Murder the referee (裁判)！”

These are common remarks one may hear at various sporting events.  At the time they are made，they may seem innocent enough.  But let’s not kid ourselves.  They have been known to influence behavior in such a way as to lead to real bloodshed.  Volumes have been written about the way words affect us.  It has been shown that words having certain connotations (含義) may cause us to react in ways quite foreign to what we consider to be our usual humanistic behavior.  I see the term “opponent” as one of those words.  Perhaps the time has come to delete it from sports terms.

The dictionary meaning of the term “opponent” is “adversary”；“enemy” ；“one who opposes your interests”.  Thus，when a player meets an opponent，he or she may tend to treat that opponent as an enemy.  At such times，winning may dominate one’s intellect，and every action，no matter how gross，may be considered justifiable.  I recall an incident in a handball game when a referee refused a player’s request for a time out for a glove change because he did not consider them wet enough.  The player proceeded to rub his gloves across his wet T-shirt and then exclaimed，“Are they wet enough now？”

In the heat of battle，players have been observed to throw themselves across the court without considering the consequences that such a move might have on anyone in their way.  I have also witnessed a player reacting to his opponent’s international and illegal blocking by deliberately hitting him with the ball as hard as he could during the course of play.  Off the court，they are good friends.  Does that make any sense？It certainly gives proof of a court attitude which departs from normal behavior.

Therefore，I believe it is time we elevated (提升) the game to the level where it belongs thereby setting an example to the rest of the sporting world.  Replacing the term “opponent” with “associate” could be an ideal way to start.

The dictionary meaning of the term “associate” is “colleague”；“friend”；“companion”．Reflect a moment!  You may soon see and possibly feel the difference in your reaction to the term “associate” rather than “opponent”．

66. Which of the following statements best expresses the author’s view?

A．Aggressive behavior in sports can have serious consequences.

B. The words people use can influence their behavior.

C．Unpleasant words in sports are often used by foreign athletes.

D．Unfair judgments by referees will lead to violence on the sports field.

67．Harsh words are spoken during games because the players______ .

A. are too eager to win

B. are usually short-tempered and easily offended

C. cannot afford to be polite in a fierce competition

D. treat their rivals as enemies

68．What did the handball player do when he was not allowed a time out to change his gloves?

A. He refused to continue the game.

B. He angrily hit the referee with a ball.

C. He claimed that the referee was unfair.

D. He wet his gloves by rubbing them across his T-shirt.

69．According to the passage，players in a game may______ .

A. deliberately throw the ball at anyone illegally blocking their way

B. keep on screaming and shouting throughout the game

C. lie down on the ground as an act of protest

D. kick the ball across the court with force

70．The author hopes to have the current situation in sports improved by_______ .

A. calling on players to use clean language on the court

B. raising the referee’s sense of responsibility

C. changing the attitude of players on the sports field

D. regulating the relationship between players and referees
