Questions 36440 are based on the following passage.
Sports and games make our bodies strong, prevent us from getting too fat; and keep us
heahhy. But these are not their only use. They give us valuable practice in making eyes,
brain and muscles work together. In tennis, our eyes see the ball coming, judge its speed
and direction and pass this information on to the brain. The brain then has to decide what to
do, and to send its orders to the muscles of the arms, legs, and so on, so that the ball is met
and hit back where it ought to go. All this must happen with very great speed, and only
those who have had a lot of practice at tennis can carry out this complicated chain of events
successfully. For those who work with their brains most of the day, the practice of such
skills is especially useful.
Sports and games are also very useful for character-training. In their lessons at school,
boys and girls may learn about such virtues(品德)as unselfishness, courage, discipline(遵纪
守法)and love of one's country; but what is learned in books cannot have the same deep
effects on a child' s character as what is learned by experience. The ordinary day-school
cannot give much practical training in living, because most of the pupils' time is spent in
classes, studying lessons. So it is what the pupils do in their spare time that really prepares
them to take their place in society as citizens when they grow up. If each of them learns to
work for his team and not for himself on the football field, he will later find it natural to
work for the good of his country instead of only for his own benefit。
36. When we play tennis we have to
A. use, first, our eyes, then the brain and finally the muscles
B. make our eyes, brain and muscles work almost at the same time
C. use mainly the arms and legs to hit the ball
D. use mainly the muscles so that the ball is met and hit back
37. The "complicated chain of events" refers to
A. the passing of information and making of decisions
B. the meeting and hitting back of the ball
C. the coordinated (协调的) movements of eyes, brain and muscles
D. a lot of practice before playing tennis
38. By character-training, the author means that sports and games can help children
A. live a better life when they grow up
B. know better how to behave properly in their future life
C. understand better the virtues they learn in books
D. All of the above
39. According to the author, a child's character can be most deeply influenced by
A. what he does out of class B. what he learns in books
C. his place in society D. his lessons at school
40. What kind of virtue can playing football build in a player?
A. Selfishness B. Team spirit
C. Love for himself D. Friendliness
