At the time they are made, they may seem
40、innocent enough. But lets not kid ourselves. They have been known to influence behavior in such a way as to lead to real violence. Books have been written about the way words affect us. It has been shown that words having certain meanings may cause us to react in ways quite foreign to what we consid
41、er to be our usual behavior. I see the term “opponent” as one of those words. Perhaps the time has come to delete it from sports term.The dictionary meaning of the term “opponent” is “enemy”, or “one who opposes your interests.” Thus, when a player meets an opponent, he or she may tend to treat that
42、 opponent as an enemy. I remember an incident in a handball game when a referee refused a players request for a time out for a glove change because he did not consider them wet enough. The player went away to rub(磨擦) his gloves across his wet Tshirt and then screamed, “Are they wet enough now?”In th
43、e heat of battle, players have been observed to throw themselves across the court without considering the effect that such a move might have on anyone in their way. I have also witnessed a player reacting to his opponents intentional and illegal blocking by hitting him with the ball as hard as he co
44、uld during the course of play. Off the court, they are good friends. Does that make any sense? It certainly gives proof of a court attitude which differs from normal behavior.Therefore, I believe it is time we elevated(提升) the game to the level where it belongs, setting an example to the rest of the
45、 sporting world. Replacing the term “opponent” with “associate” could be a good way to start.The dictionary meaning of the term “associate” is “friend” or “companion”. You may soon see and possibly feel the difference in your reaction to term “associate” rather than “opponent”5What did the handball
46、player do when he was not allowed to change his gloves?A. He refused to continue the game.B. He angrily hit the referee with a ball.C. He insisted that the referee was unfair.D. He wet his gloves by rubbing them across his Tshirt.6According to the passage, players, in a game, may _.A. throw the ball
47、 at the opponent illegally blocking their wayB. keep on screaming and shouting throughout the gameC. lie down on the ground as an act of protectionD. kick the ball across the court with force7What is the fourth paragraph mainly about?A. The players eagerness to win.B. The players bad behaviour.C. Th
48、e players attitudes towards the game.D. The players totally different behaviour on and off the court.8What can be concluded from the passage?A. Players should be educated to respect referees on the court.B. Replacing the present terms on the court can help reduce violence.C. Raising the referees sen
49、se of responsibility can help reduce violence.D. Changing the attitude of players on the sports field can help reduce violence.答案5D。细节理解题。根据第三段倒数第一句可判断此项正确。前三项在文章中没有信息支持。6A。根据第四段第二句可判断此项正确。B、D两项在文章中没有信息支持;根据第四段第一句可知运动员躺下的原因是为了阻挡别人,而不是自我保护,因此C项错误。7D。段落大意题。本段提到在比赛进入白热化阶段时,选手有时会不择手段地去阻挡对方,而出了球场又是朋友,由此可见球场上的表现与正常行为存在差异性。8B。推理判断题。结合倒数第二段最后一句以及最后一段中的内容可推断此项正确。文章叙述的是一些体育用语的使用不当导致了一些不文明的行为,其余三项与此无关,因而不恰当。
