Basketball is a sport enjoyed by millions of people. It began in 1891.
Dr. James Naismith, the father of basketball, was a teacher of a YMCA training 21 . It trained the people to work in YMCAs. Officials at the school were 22 about the low attendance during the 23 months. They felt that people didn’t attend then because the school did not have a good sports 24 in the winter. So they asked Dr. Naismith for help. He came up with a new indoor game.
Naismith studied games being played at that 25 . he found that the most 26 game was a ball. So a ball would be part of his new game, he decided. But kicking the ball or hitting it would be too rough for indoors. So he put two 27 up on the poles. The players have to try to 28 a ball into them. Naismith then made thirteen 29 for the game. Twelve of them are still in use today. Just seven years after the game began professional basketball teams were 30 . and that’s how basketball was born.

I learned how to accept life as it is from my father. 36__, he did not teach me acceptance when he was strong and healthy, but rather when he was 37 and ill.
My father was 38 a strong man who loved being active, but a terrible illness 39 all that away. Now he can no longer walk, and he must sit quietly in a chair all day. Even talking is 40 .

What did I gain?” I thought and thought, but I couldn't think of anything to say. 47 , he answered his own question: “I 48 the love of my family,” I looked at my sisters and saw tears in their eyes, along with hope and thankfulness.

One day a teacher asked her students to list the names of 36 students in the classroom on two sheets of paper, leaving a space between each name. Then she told them to think of the 37 thing they could say about each of their classmates and write it down.
It 38 the class some time to finish their assignment, and as the students left the room, each one 39 the papers.

No one ever 44 those papers in class again. She never knew if they discussed them after class or with their parents, but it didn’t 45 . The exercise had completed its 46 . The students were 47 with themselves and one another.
That group of students moved on. Several years later, one of the students was 48 in Vietnam War and his teacher 49 the funeral of that special student.
After the funeral, most of Mark’s former classmates left. Mark’s mother and father were there, obviously waiting to speak to his teacher.

Opening the wallet, he 53 removed two worn pieces of notebook paper that had obviously been taped, folded, and refolded many times. The teacher knew without 54 that the papers were the ones on which she had listed all the good things each of Mark’s classmates had said about him.

A friend of mine met with an accident driving in darkness. His legs were so hurt that he couldn’t move. What was the 31 was he found himself unable to ask for help — his mobile phone went out of 32 as a result of exhausted (用尽的)battery. Nothing could be done but 33 in cold wilderness. It was 8 hours later that day broke, and then the 34 of the rescue.
It is almost 35 that he could stand the horror in the darkness for so long. Even more surprising was his 36 : "First of all I checked up my 37 conditions and found myself not in mortal (致命的)danger. As there was no 38 to call for help ,I leaned back in my seat trying my best to keep the wound from 39 .In this way I dozed (打盹)off ."
His story put an end to my regret for the 40 of an exploration adventure that happened last year. A group of young men 41 to explore a mountain cave and got lost . 42 to find a way out in the dark cave they were frightened and ran anxiously without a sense of 43 .Finally they fell dead in fear and exhaustion(筋疲力尽).According to the 44 people that found them, the place where they got lost was only about 10 meters away from the 45 of the cave. If they stayed on the spot when they lost their way and tried to 46 themselves, they would probably sense a faint light glimmering (闪烁)not far away .
Don’t you think that you can compare it with 47 itself? When you meet with obstacles (障碍)in life and work ,you are lost in darkness. 48 you it’s unclear yet and you need not put up struggle 49 . It seems to be a negative (消极的)attitude, 50 a person who can afford to do so must have foresight as well as a great courage in the first place .
