The New Hoop
Marco looked at the basketball hoop and threw the ball up. “Score!” Marco shouted as the 1 went through the basketball hoop. “You won this time, but next time I’ll 2 you, Marco!” said Kim, as the two friends walked home, “I wish we could play at the park too, instead of only at school.” But the basketball hoop in their neighborhood park had been ruined by a fallen tree. “I feel so 3 ,” said Kim, “I guess there’s nothing we can do.”
Marco and Kim walked past the city’s recycling center. They saw Mr. Morse was collecting plastic, paper and metal items. Marco stared at all the old stuff. “That gives me an idea!” he said, “Mr. Morse, do you have anything we could 4 to make a basketball hoop?”
Mr. Morse picked up a plastic laundry basket. “We are going to recycle this basket, but I think you can take it.”
“It looks useless, old and cracked. I want a new basketball hoop!” said Kim.
“Why?” wondered Marco, “Reusing things is a great way to 5 waste. And don’t you think that will be meaningful to make something on our own?”
“That sounds interesting! I guess we can try,” said Kim, “but I still don’t 6 it will be as good as a new one.”
They took the basket to Marco’s house and found some leftover wood in an old yard. Together they tinkered (小修补) with the materials and made a post and a backboard. When all the parts were ready, they took everything to the 7 and managed to set up the hoop.
“It looks better than I thought it would!” said Kim. “Here’s the real test!” He bounced the ball, aimed and shot a perfect basket. He was 8 .
“Wow, I was wrong,” Kim said. “This basketball hoop is really great. Now we can play whenever we want!” The two friends played in the park until dinner time. The hoop stood the real test and the boys had the true joys.

Play Ball!
If someone asks you to go to an Association football (英式足球) game, will you be interested? Association football is known as soccer in the US. It is the world’s most widely played sport. Games similar to soccer were played as long as two thousand years ago in China! Modern soccer got its name from Association football, a game played in England in the mid-1800s. The word “association” was shortened to “assoc” and it was finally turned into “soccer”.
The first soccer clubs were formed in England in the 1850s. The first professional (职业的) players joined in the 1880s. Soccer quickly spread across Europe and became very popular in countries such as Spain, Italy, and Germany. Soccer even spread to countries in faraway South America. People seemed to like how simple the game is. All you need to play are a ball and two goals. Everything else comes from the players. Soccer still remains very popular in both Europe and South America.
One of the best and most famous of these professionals is Edson Arantes do Nascimento. He is better known by his nickname, Pelé. Pelé was born in Brazil, a country in South America. With Pelé’s help, Brazil won three World Cup titles from the late 1950s to the early 1970s. Today, he is still one of the all-time leading scorers in World Cup history with 12 goals. The International Olympic Committee named Pelé Soccer Player of the Century in 1999.
The World Cup is the worldwide soccer competition that is held every four years, once for women and once for men. Millions of people worldwide watch the matches on television. The first Women’s World Cup match was played in 1991 in China.
It took longer for soccer to be accepted in the US than it did in other places around the world. A different kind of football was already played in this country. People were not eager (热切的) to try another form. After Pelé joined the New York Cosmos in 1975, soccer became more popular in the US. It continues to grow in popularity. Today, soccer is the second favourite sport for kids in the US!
