In 1891 the game was invented by Dr. James Naismith, a Canadian who was from Almonte, Ontario.Having been given the task of creating a new indoor sports activity while conducting a physical education class at the international YMCA training school in Springfield, Massachusetts, Naismith designed what we now call basketball. The original game involved 13 rules and a peach basket hung ten feet above the floor. Even though it took place in the United States, at least ten of the players who located in the first game were university students from Quebec.Basketball played by school and local amateur teams has been part of the Canadian sports scene since the turn of the century. Hoops teams representing Canada have joined in Olympic Games since 1936 and in the World Championships since 1954.One of the most storied amateur teams in Canadian basketball history is the Edmonton Commercial Graduates (Grads), a group of Canadian women who dominated (占优势) the sport in the 1920s, 30s and 40s. Over 25 years, the Grads played 522 games at home and abroad, against both womens and mens teams. The Grads accomplished a recordbreaking winning streak (连胜场数) of 147 games and throughout their basketball tenure (任期) won remarkable (卓越的) 502 times.The National Basketball Association also has origins in Canada. The NBAs first game was played in Toronto nearly seventy years ago, on November 1, 1946 when the New York Knickerbockers defeated the Toronto Huskies 6866 at Maple Leaf Gardens. The teams were part of the Basketball Association of America, the forerunner to the NBA.The Toronto Raptors and Vancouver Grizzlies joined the NBA beginning in the 199596 season, becoming the first nonU.S. cities to join the league since the Toronto Huskies were oneyear members of the BAA. In summer 2001, the Grizzlies relocated from Vancouver to Memphis, Tennessee.1Basketball as a physical activity is created because _.ACanada desired to be a forerunner in sportsBa new indoor activity was needed in MassachusettsCstudents from Quebec needed physical exercisesDJames Naismith is a teacher of physical education解析：选B细节理解题。从第二段的首句“Having been given the task of creating a new indoor sports activity”可以得知答案是B项。2Which basketball groups played an important role in the Canadian sports since the turn of the century?ALocal basketball fans.BProfessional school teams.CSchool and local amateur teams.DLocal basketball associations.解析：选C细节理解题。根据文章第三段第一句可知，学校和当地业余篮球队成为很重要的一部分，故选C项。3What can be inferred about the Grads according to Paragraph 4?AGrads won 147 games.BGrads had men and women players.CGrads has a history of 30 years.DGrads had very few losses.解析：选D细节理解题。第四段有“Over 25 years, the Grads played 522 games at home and abroad”和“won remarkable (卓越的) 502 times”的介绍，由此可见，该队赢的场数占绝大多数，522场中仅输过20场。4Which of the following might be the best title for the passage?ABAA and NBABThe origin of NBACNBA and Olympic GamesDThe history of basketball in Canada解析：选D标题归纳题。该篇介绍了加拿大篮球的发展历史，故选D项。BWho could have imagined that a treadmill on wheels would one day go somewhere? The Lopifit is an unusual means of transportation that allows you to power an electric bicycle by walking on a treadmill.Bruin Bergmeester, the founder of the Lopifit says it all started when he asked himself the question “How can I use the treadmill outdoors？” He eventually came up with a functional design, added an electric engine, and the Lopifit was made. Its similar to an electric bicycle in that the motor only engages when the rider puts power in as well.To use the Lopifit, simply turn on the battery and use your foot to slide the treadmill backwards and activate the motor. Then get on and enjoy the ride! If you need speed, just walk on the treadmill, and if you want to coast, all you have to do is stay still and admire the view. To stop, you have two hand brakes. The right lever stops the motor assist and activates a rear disc brake, while the left one stops the treadmill itself, so you can go from motor assist to coasting.The Lopifit first hit the streets in 2014 and, unsurprisingly, became an instant hit. That was actually quite challenging for the company, because it started getting inquiries and calls for orders, but it was nowhere near ready for mass production. The unique treadmill bicycle became available this year, and the Lopifit is struggling to keep up with demand, despite the high price tag of $2,115.But despite having a very loyal fanbase of socalled Lopifitters, the ingenious means of transportation also has naysayers who simply consider the concept stupid and unnecessary. They basically believe that if youre going to walk, you might as well do it the old fashioned way. But the Lopifit does have the unique advantage of helping you “walk” really fast without breaking a sweat, or walking at cycling speed, if you will.语篇解读：本文是说明文。跑步机也能成为一种交通工具吗？多亏了Lopifit的创始人Bruin Bergmeester的脑洞，这已经成为现实。5What can you do with the help of the Lopifit?AAnswer some hard questions.BAdd power to your bicycle.CCreate a treadmill on wheels.DCycle to work by walking.解析：选D细节理解题。第一段告诉我们电动自行车Lopifit是一款与众不同的交通工具，你可以通过在跑步机行走来为它充电，故选择D项。6What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?AHow the Lopifit was born.BWhere the Lopifit can be used.CWho the Lopifit was intended for.DWhich design is suitable for the Lopifit.解析：选A段落大意题。根据第二段中的“it all started when he asked himself the question How can I use the treadmill outdoors？ He eventually came up with a functional design”可知，该段主要讲述了Lopifit的诞生。7Which of the following is TRUE about using the Lopifit?AThe right lever can stop the Lopifits treadmill.BThe left lever can control the Lopifits rear disc brake.CThe right lever can make the Lopifits motor stop working.DYour foot can help the Lopifit go from motor assist to coasting.解析：选C细节理解题。根据第三段中的“The right lever stops the motor assist and activates a rear disc brake”可知选C项。8According to Paragraph 4, we know that the Lopifit _.Awas hard to designBwas cheap and available in 2014Calways broke down on the streetsDcouldnt meet customers demands解析：选D推理判断题。根据第四段中的“That was actually quite challenging for the company, because it started getting inquiries and calls for orders, but it was nowhere near ready for mass production”可知，2014年Lopifit首次出街便火速蹿红。这对Lopifit公司来说是一个很大的考验，因为他们还没有做好大规模生产的准备，就开始收到咨询和订购需求。CSpanish for Healthcare WorkersInstructor: Dr. Lucia MendezClass schedule (日程安排)The class is held in Room 203 every Monday and Wednesday evening from 6：30 to 8：15 pm.
