题目内容

 Last week,millions of Chinese viewers turned into CCTV 5 to watch two teams of men in colorful clothing chase a ball around a field. But the New England Patriots(爱国者队)and Caro?lina Panthers(黑豹队)were not playing soccer. They were competing for American football's greatest prize,the Super Bowl.

  The first recorded game of American university was played more than 100 years ago,using a mixture of soccer and rugby(英式橄揽球)rules. The Super Bowl itself was first contested in 1967 ，but 2004 was the first time the game reached Chinese TV screens.

  American football is very popular because it exhibits a number of athletic skills，such as running, jumping, catching,throwing and kicking. There is also hitting and tackling, which appears violent(激烈的)sometimes!

  The best-known league in the United States is the National Football League (NFL)，which is made up of 30 teams, and the Super Bowl is its championship game. One of the most famous players is New England star Tom Brady，who was named the Most Valuable Player as his team won the Super Bowl last week. Brady plays in the quarterback position, and is the player re?sponsible for throwing the ball to his teammates. Now the Super Bowl has arrived in China, maybe the game will become just as popular as basketball or soccer！

(   ) 1. In the first paragraph, the underlined word "chase" means "_____________________ ”.

A. to be followed    B. to run after

C. to catch    D. to throw

2. A细节判断题由第二段最后一句"but 2004 was the first time the game reached Chi?nese TV screens"提供的信息可知答案。B项错是因为文中提到"The Super Bowl itself was first contested in 1967"，而1967年距现在不到一个世纪；C项错是因为文中提到CCTV 直到2004年才首次转播the Super Bowl，并不代表中国观众没有看过该比赛；D错误是因为第二段提到1967年是the Super Bowl的首次比赛时间。

   British Foreign Secretary David Miliband said on Wednesday that boycotting the Beijing Olympic Games is not the right path to take.

  "We are ever excited about prospects for the Summer Olympic Games in Beijing," Mili?band said in an interview with Chinese reporters in London before his visit to China.

  "Everything we have seen and read suggests that preparations are proceeding in an excellent way. We very much look forward to a very successful Olympics, successful for China and suc?cessful for the world. We certainly believe that boycotts are not a right way," he said.

  "China has big responsibilities around the world. We are looking forward to working with the Chinese government to ensure the values of stability, security and social justice. And only today I spoke with (Chinese Foreign Minister) Yang about our joint work that could help the situation in Darfur. And the Chinese envoy(特使)to Darfur is in London today, that sort of en?gagement is the right way to go and boycotts are not the right way，" Miliband said.

  "The prime minister (Gordon Brown) is determined to represent the whole of the country with his attendance to the Games," he added.

  Miliband expressed his high regard to the bilateral(双边的)relations between Britain and China. "I can't think about a time that our relations are stronger, that is symbolized by the visit of the prime minister to China last month but also by cultural events like China now going on in Britain.”

British people are fascinated by the changes and improvements going on in China, and are trying to build bridges between the two nations, the foreign secretary said.

  "Both our countries are challenged by the facts of globalization. Economic and social changes are producing challenges for both the societies，challenges about security and stability， challenges about justice，challenges about environment，and the theme of my visit is how our two countries can work together and learn from each other in adapting to these challenges”，the secretary told Chinese reporters.
