题目内容

10.I was 17 and my job was to try to keep eight fairly active 10-,11-and 12-year-olds from killing one another or themselves.Among other activities,I would take them camping in the woods outside Dover Plains,New York.I learned that if you are going to be in the woods for a couple of days,take frosted food.You can eat them for breakfast,lunch and dinner,you don't have to cook them and they don't weigh as much as your meats and vegetables.I'll never touch another frosted food as long as I live.
The camp was for low-income black lads from New York City.During the camp,I found being out in the woods with the kids was a little scary,because I suddenly realized these are actually somebody's children and I'm responsible for them.I found myself being an authority figure because I had to.
On a camping trip we stopped at a lake to put up our tents.I was the only white person in the group.We were swimming when these white kids in a motorboat began yelling racial abuses and trying to splash(泼水)us.Then I had no choice but to warn them,"If you come anywhere near these kids,we've written down the number of your boat and we're going to call the police."
They yelled more but finally left.That experience was the biggest test of responsibility I had ever faced.
When I returned to high school after that first summer,it seemed a lot less fearful than before.Plus,I had earned $375,which after trips to the camp candy store was down to eight cents'clear profit.

A.They were his favorite snacks                    
B.They were easy to carry and eat
C.They filled the belly easily

18.You may have heard that a young man named Abner Doubleday invented the game known as baseball in Cooperstown,New York,during the summer of 1839.Doubleday then went on to become a Civil War hero,while baseball became America's beloved national pastime.The story is untrue.Actually,Doubleday was still at West Point,a military academy in 1839,and he never claimed to have anything to do with baseball.
In 1907,a special committee used weak evidence-namely the claims of one man,Abner Graves-to come up with the Doubleday origin story.The officials would rely on the myth's lasting power in the 1930s,when they established the National Baseball Hall of Fame and Museum in the village.
As it turns out,the real history of baseball is a little more complex than the Doubleday story.References to games resembling baseball in the United States date back to the 18th century.Its most direct ancestors appear to be two English games:cricket (板球) and rounder-a children's game brought to New England by the earliest settlers.By the time of the American Revolution,variations (演变) of such games were being played on schoolyards and college campuses across the country.They became even more popular in newly industrialized cities where men sought work in the mid-19th century.In September 1845,a group of New York City men founded the New York Knickerbocker Baseball Club.One of them made a new set of rules that would form the basis for modern baseball.
Cartwright's changes made the game faster-paced and more challenging from older games like cricket.In 1846,the Knickerbockers played the first official game of baseball against a team of cricket players,beginning a new,uniquely American tradition.

28.What can we know according to the first paragraph?C
A.Baseball was invented by Abner Doubleday.
B.Abner Doubleday fought in the Civil War.
C.Doubleday stayed at West Point for some reason.
D.Doubleday said he had much to do with baseball.
29.Why did the Doubleday origin story come up?C
A.Because a special committee was founded.
B.Because Doubleday provided false evidence.
C.Because Abner Graves told a Doubleday story.
D.Because Abner Graves worked with Doubleday.
30.The real history of baseball isB.
A.much simpler than the Doubleday story
B.that baseball comes from two English games
C.about a children's game from New England
D.more interesting than that of rounder and cricket
31.It can be inferred from the passage thatA.
A.Doubleday might have been an army officer
B.Doubleday is the most respected in America
C.Doubleday in fact came from Britain
D.Doubleday invented rounder and cricket.
