Suriname D. Canada C In the United States and several other countries, 2.5 million children play baseball in an organization called Little League. They play on teams in their hometowns. Their parents and other adults in the community coach or instruct them and serve as umpires to make sure that everyone follows the rules. Local businesses give money for the ball fields and the uniforms. Local teams compete against each other and the winners get to play teams that are more distant. Eventually, the top teams go to the Little League World Series.One hundred years after Abner Doubleday invented baseball in Cooperstown, New York, in 1839, Little League got started in Pennsylvania. Three men started the game for neighborhood boys with a smaller playing field and fewer innings than adult baseball. Little League became popular after World War when the game spread across the United States. By 1955 it was played throughout North America and within five years it had spread to Europe. Childrens baseball really caught on in Japan and Taiwan of China and teams from those areas won the World Series seven out of eight years. After this, the organization tried banning foreign teams from the World Series, but the ban came to an end after one year.At first, Little League was only for boys aged nine to twelve. However, in 1974, the parents of girl baseball players brought a law suit. The courts ruled that Little League had to include both boys and girls. Later Little League added on softball and other games for teenagers up to age eighteen. Occasionally, a Little Leaguer becomes a professional player. For example, Gary Carter went from Little League to play nineteen seasons in the Major Leagues, ten of them as an AllStar player. By and large, youngsters play baseball for fun, but their parents are proud of them.28The mothers and fathers of Little League players _Aplay in the World SeriesBtravel with coachesCgive the teams money Dhelp run the games29In what year did baseball come into being?A1739 B1939 C1955 D183930Why do most players take part in Little League?ATo play in the Major League.BTo have fun.CThey expect a profit from AllStar games.DThey want to learn how to serve as umpires.31What is TRUE about players today?ALittle League is only for neighborhood boys.BGirl players have to buy their suits.CGirls and boys can participate up to age eighteen.DChildren can only play until age twelve. D Have you ever received a gift that was so dearly, not your taste that you wondered if perhaps it had been handed to you by mistake? Worse, have you ever given a present and watched your friend look as though she had opened the wrong box? Maybe she responded with a polite Why, thank you, but you knew you had missed the mark. Why do presents sometimes go wrong? And what do your choices (good and bad) reflect about your personal qualities?Choosing the right gift is an art, I believe. It calls for empathy - the ability to put yourself into someone elses head and heart. Were all able to do this; in fact, were born with a kind of natural empathy. After the earliest period of childhood, however, it needs to be reinforced (加强)-by our parents, teachers, friends. When it isnt, were not able to understand other peoples feelings as sharply. This can show in the gifts we select, and so can many other emotional (情感的) qualities. Think back to the presents youve given over the past year, the time and effort you put into your selection, how much you spent, your thoughts while you were shopping, and your feelings when the receiver opened the package. Keep in mind that what you choose displays your inner world. (Of course, you may express yourself differently with different friends, relatives, and other people you know. We live in a society where exchanging presents is an important part of communication. Ignoring the tradition wont make it go away. If you really dislike such a tradition, tell your friends ahead of time.32. The underlined expression you had missed the mark means you had failed to _. A. make her feel better B. keep your friendship C. get the expected effect D. receive a present in return33. Which of the following is the main idea of the second paragraph? A.

A. the choice of gifts reflects ones emotional qualities B. one learns from what he did in the pastC. attention should be paid to the receivers responsesD. one should spend more time choosing gifts 35. The best possible title for this passage is “_”. A. Ways of Choosing Gifts B. An Important Tradition C. Exchanging Presents D. Message in a Gift 第二节：（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） 根据短文的内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项Rules on how to be a fit kidBeing fit is a way of saying a person; a person eats well, gets a lot of physical exercise, and has a healthy weight. _36_.
