It seems that the Englishmen just cannot live without some kind of sports. A famous French humorist once said that this is because the English insist on behaving like children all their lives. Wherever you go in this country, you will see both children and grown-ups knocking a ball about with a stick or something, as if in Britain men shall always remain boys and women girls! Still, it can never be bad to get exercise, can it?
Taking all amateur(业余) and professional sports in Britain into consideration, there can be no doubt that football is at the top of the list. It is called soccer in the United States. The game was played in Britain in the Middle Ages or even earlier. Though as an organized game, or “association football”, it dates only from the beginning of the 19th century.
The next is rugby, which is called “football”in the United States. It is a kind of football played by two teams of fifteen players rather than eleven. In rugby, an oval-shaped ball is used which can be handled as well as kicked. It is a pretty rough game.
In summer, cricket is the most popular sport. In fact, it has sometimes been called the English national game. Most foreigners find the game rather slow or even boring, but it enjoys great popularity among the British.
Tennis rates high on the lsit, too. It was introduced into England from France in the 15th century, but it was from England that it spread to practically every country in the wrold.
Table tennis, or “Ping-pong”, surely is not played on a great scale(规模) as it is in China or Japan. Basketball and volleyball were introduced into Britain during the late 19th century from America and are gaining popularity. Horseback riding, swimming, rowing and golf all attract(吸引) a lot of people.
46. The main purpose of Paragraph 1 is to tell us that the English _________.
A are all sports lovers
B behave like children
C like to kick a ball around
D can remain young all their lives
47. According to the passage, which of the following is NOT true about football and rugby?
A They differ in the shape of the ball.
B They are played by different numbers of players.
C They both can be handled.
D They both can be kicked.
48. The game that was never played in Britain until the late 19th century is ___________.
A basketball
B tennis
C rugby
D football
49. How many kinds of sports are mentioned in the passage?
A Ten.
B Eleven.
C Twelve.
D It’s hard to count.
50. What would be the best title for this passage?
A The Most Popular Sports
B The English Sports
C History of Sports
D Sports in Britain

第一节任务型阅读，根据短文内容完成表格(每题2分，共10分)
Turtles and tortoises have been on planet Earth even before the dinosaurs. They are that old. The difference between a turtle and a tortoise is that the turtle stays in water while the tortoise stays on land. But both creatures have one thing in common: they have a long life, from 120 years to almost 200 years!
Some of them are huge, like the gaint tortoises of the Galapagos Island---they weigh beyongd 200kg; their shells are more than a meter long. The beauty is that they are hatched from eggs that are no bigger than a hen’s.
They manage to live so long because the important parts of their bodies do not become weak with age, as in the case of humans and birds. In fact, they continue to grow very, very slowly for as long as they live. Their body does not need much energy to survive. They can live for long periods without water or food.
Turtles and tortoises face risks to their life. After birth, their shells take some months to become hard. Till then, they are an easy prey for birds and fish. The other risk to their life comes from pollution of their living environment.
