Basketball is a sport enjoyed by millions of fans in at least 100 countries. It's one of the best-known sports in the world. It all began in 1891.
Dr. James A. Naismith, the father of basketball, was an instructor at a YMCA(基督教) Training school. The school trained people to work in YMCAs. Officials at the school were concerned about the low attendance during the winter months. They felt that people didn't attend then because the school did not have a good winter sports program. So they asked Dr. Naismith for help. He came up with a new indoor game.
Naismith studied current games. He found that all the most popular games used a ball. So a ball would be a part of his new game, he decided. But kicking the ball or hitting it would be too rough for indoor. So he put 2 peach baskets up on poles. The players had to try to throw a soccer ball into them. Naismith then made thirteen rules for the game. 12 of them are still in use today. Just 7 years after the game began, professional basketball teams were formed.
And that's how basketball was born.
Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?
A.The Birth of Basketball
B.YMCA and Basketball
C.Basketball——an Indoor Game
D.A Winter Sports Program

Over a million people visit Hawaii(夏威夷) each year because of its pleasant weather and wonderful scenery(景色). The Hawaiian islands have very mild temperatures. In addition, the rainfall in Hawaii is not very heavy because mountains on the north of each island stop incoming storms. This pleasant weather helps tourists to enjoy Hawaii's wonderful natural scenery, from mountain waterfalls to fields of flowers and fruits.

In 1908, an object from outer space devastated2,000km2of forest in Siberia. The object was between10m and 100m in diameter and traveled at a maximumspeed of 15km/sec. It exploded at an altitude of 8km andreleased energy equivalent to 20million tons of TNT. Twoscientists discuss whether this object was a comet or anasteroid.
Scientist 1
The object was a comet, a body made of ices (such asfrozen water or methane) and dust. Most of this cometarymaterial is volatile(easily vaporized) and low in density.Friction in Earth’s atmosphere heated the comet to a tem-perature at which it exploded, high above the ground. Themajority of the ices and dust were vaporized in the explo-sion, which explains why no crater was formed at the siteand why no large, identifiable fragments of the object werefound. An asteroid would not have been completelydestroyed. Intact asteroid fragments that reached theground would have created one or more craters uponimpact and left behind recoverable pieces. Evidence showsthat the object decelerated rapidly before it exploded.Because of their low density, comets are capable of suchrapid deceleration, whereas high-density objects, such asasteroids, are not.
Scientist 2
The object was a stony asteroid. As it entered Earth’satmosphere, its high speed created a large air pressure dif-ference between the area just in front of the asteroid andthe area just behind the asteroid. The large pressure differ-ence eventually exceeded the structural strength of theasteroid. The asteroid flattened, decelerated rapidly due tothe dramatic increase in its surface area, and fragmentedbefore reaching the ground. This fragmentation would haveappeared like an explosion. Calculations show that a cometbetween 10m and 100m in diameter would explode at analtitude much higher than 8km, but a stony asteroid of thatsize would fragment at or near an altitude of 8km.Recovery of large asteroid fragments is difficult due to thearea’s boggy soil; however, small, glassy fragments wererecovered and are believed to be melted and resolidifiedpieces of the asteroid.
Which of the following phrases best describes the majorpoint of difference between the 2 scientists’ hypotheses?
A.The location of the event
B.The speed the object was traveling
C.The density of Earth’s atmosphere
D.The type of object that entered Earth’s atmosphere
