Sports in America take a variety of forms: organized _17_ struggles, which draw huge crowds to cheer their _18_ team to victory; athletic games, played for recreation anywhere sufficient space is found; and hunting and fishing. Most sports are seasonal, so that what is happening in sports depends upon the time of year. Some sports are called spectator sports, because the number of spectators are much more than the number who _19_ in games.Basketball, one of the top sports in America, is a(n) _20_ of sports and American culture. Basketball is the winter sport and can be played throughout the spring and summer. Some professional baseball teams play well into the fall. Nowadays, if basketball is talked, the NBA cant be _21_. The NBA All-Star Game is a great _22_ of the year and will attract a large audience. Football is also a popular sport in the United States. Unlike European football or soccer.

Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.(A)In the past decade the popularity of rock climbing has greatly increased，and so has the number of injuries. It has been estimated that rock climbing is now enjoyed by more than 9 million people in the US each year. Study findings revealed a 65 percent increase in the number of patients that were treated in US emergency departments for rock climbingrelated injuries between 1991 and 2008.The study, published in the online issue of the American Journal of Preventive Medicine，found that about 40,000 patients were treated in US emergency departments for rock climbingrelated injuries between 1991 and 2008.The most common types of rock climbingrelated injuries were fractures (骨折) and sprains (扭伤)The ankle was the most common body part to be injured (40 percent)Climbers in the study ranged in age from 2 to 74，with an average age of 26.The study also found that women took up a quarter of the injuries.Falls were the primary reason for injury with over three quarters of the injuries occurring as the result of a fall. The severity of fallrelated injuries had a lot to do with the height of the fall. Patients who were injured after falling from a height over 20 feet were 10 times more likely to be treated than patients who were injured falling from 20 feet or lower.We found that the climbers who fell from heights higher than 20 feet took up 70 percent of the patients treated for a rock climbingrelated injury， explained the study author Lara McKenzie，PhD，director at the Center for Injury Research and Policy at Nationwide Hospital. This trend，combined with the fact that rock climbers have a higher hospitalization rate than other sports and recreational injuries，demonstrates the need to increase injury prevention efforts for climbers.42Which body part is most likely to get injured for a climber?A.The arm. B.The ankle.C.The knee. D.The hand.43The severity of climbers fallrelated injures is mainly related to _.A.the height of the fallB.the climbers ageC.the climbers health conditionsD.the climbers climbing experience44The underlined word demonstrates in the last paragraph can be replaced by _A.demands B.preventsC.proves D.describes45The purpose of the passage is to _.A.show that rock climbingrelated injuries have increasedB.tell readers rock climbing is an adventurous sportC.warn readers of the danger of rock climbingD.call on doctors to increase injury prevention efforts.(B) After ruling the tennis world for almost five years, is adjusting to life at NO. 1. But, like any king whose throne (王冠）has been taken away, the Swiss star is already planning secretly his return to power, beginning at this weeks US Open. The problem is，many experts think he will never do it. They blame everything from age and tough competition to his racket(球拍）and psychology. For years Federer, 27，had enjoyed the view from the top. Competitors saw him as undefeated ,and for the most part he was. However, before the 2008 season began, Federer had an illness that stole his strength and clearly affected his play on the court. Ever since, he has struggled to return to form, winning just two of his last 14 tournaments.Twenty-seven is an age when your body starts talking back to you. tennis great John McEnroe told the New York Times. Pancho Sefura, another tennis great, noted that Federer is also facing a maturing crop of young talents. There are too many great players now, he said, naming Britains Andy Murray, 21，and Latvias Ernests Gulbis, 20. US magazine Sports Illustrated tennis columnist Jon Wertheim suggested that part of Federers problem could be his insistence on using a small racket. He says that the smaller head demands ball control. But we see time and again that racket makers try to get players to use a certain stickone they would like to market to consumers and it has a negative effect on the professional game.* Sports psychologist Jim Loehr told the Times that Federer is probably feeling a sense of doubt after being considered as undefeated for so long. If Federer is to recover his state of being undefeated, Loehr said he must overcome his doubt. Federer doesnt need fame and money. But he has to get better. He has to go to a whole new level. Thats the only way he stays in the game, he said.As for beginning his first Grand Slam(大满贯）in ages as the NO. 2 seed, Federer said it might be for the best. Five years almost，I was expected to win every tournament I entered, he said, so maybe Rafael Nadal now feels what I had to feel for a very long time. It will be interesting to see how he handles it. 46.What does the underlined sentence your body starts talking back to you in Para. 4 mean?A. Your body often argues with you.B. You can do whatever you want.C. Your strength is beginning to decline. D. You are more easily to have terrible diseases.47.From the passage, we know the main reason why Federers throne was taken a-way is that_.A.he is becoming older and olderB.he insisted on using a small racketC.he is facing a maturing crop of young talentsD.he had an illness that stole his strength48.What can be inferred from the passage?A.Now it is Nadal who has replaced Federer as the No. 1 tennis player.B.The racket makers aim at the players better performance in games.C.It is quite impossible for Federer to return to power.D.Federer has never won a Grand Slam before.49.Whats the best title of the passage?A. Nadal The No. 1 Tennis PlayerB. Federer Always UndefeatedC. State of Mind Plays a Vital RoleD.
