A

The Journaloffers very little space for baseball stats.

B

Gary feels ashamed at having a baseball team in his city.

C

The woman seems to like The City Journal.

D

The woman is not a sports fan.

参考答案和解析
正确答案： A
解析：
关于The Journal的对话，录音中男士谈到，该报竟然将棒球比赛结果置于报纸末页，并用小框框围起来。这样的做法似乎显得该报羞于拥有这样一支成功的球队。选项B说男士感到羞耻，与原文不符，故B项为正确答案。

American Sports
The United States is a sports-loving nation.Sports in America take a variety of forms: organized competitive struggles, which draw huge crowds to cheer their favorite team to victory；athletic games,played for recreation anywhere sufficient space is found;and hunting and fishing.Most sports are seasonal,so that what is happening in sports depends upon the time of year.Some sports are called spectator sports,as the number of spectators greatly exceeds the number playing in the game.
Baseball is the most popular sport in the US.It is played throughout the spring and sum-mer,and professional baseball teams play well into the fall.Although no other game is exact-ly like baseball,perhaps the one most nearly like it is the English game of cricket.
Football is the most popular sport in the fall.The game originated as a college sport more than 75 years ago.It is still played by almost every college and university in the coun-try,and the football stadiums of some of the largest universities seat as many as 80,000 people.The game is not the same as European football or soccer.In American football there are 11 players on each team,and they are dressed in padded uniforms and helmets because the game is rough and injuries are likely to occur.
Basketball is the winter sport in American schools and colleges.Like football,basketball originated in the US and is not popular in other countries.Many Americans prefer it to foot-ball because it is played indoors throughout the winter and because it is a faster game.It is a very popular game with high schools,and in more than 20 states,state-wide high school matches are held yearly.
Other spectator sports include wrestling,boxing,and horse racing.Although horse-racing fans call themselves sportsmen,the accuracy of the term is questionable,as only the jockeys who ride the horses in the races can be considered athletes.The so-called sportsmen are the spectators,who do“not assemble” primarily to see the horses race,but to bet upon the outcome of each race.Gambling is the attraction of horse racing.

Professional baseball teams can continue to play for a long period of time in the fall af-ter the regular baseball seasons of spring and summer.

题干意为“在美国，男人们，无论老少，都喜欢打猎和钓鱼”。利用题干中的名词及名词短语hunting, fishing, men, US作为定位线索，同时关注题干中的修饰词young, old，这样找到相关句Sports in America take a variety of forms: organized competitive struggles,which draw huge crowds to cheer their favorite team to victory;athletic games,played for recreation anywhere sufficient space is found； and hunting and fishing，相关句意为“在美 国，运动有各种各样的形式：有组织的比赛争夺，吸引着众多的人群去为他们最喜欢的队取得胜利而喝彩，为了消遣只要能找到足够的场地就举行的竞技活动，此外，还有打猎和捕鱼。” 由相关句可知“打猎和钓鱼是美国人的两种运动形式”，但至于什么样的人喜欢打猎和捕鱼却没有提到，短文的其他部分也没有谈到这样的内容，因此是否主要是男人们喜欢打猎和捕鱼 是从短文中无法获取的信息。
题干意为“职业棒球队在春夏两个赛季结束之后还可以在秋季继续进行比赛很长时间”。利用题干中的名词及名词短语professional baseball teams , the regular baseball seasons,a long period of time, fall, spring, summer作为定位线索，这样找到相关句 Baseball is the most popular sport in the US.It is played throughout the spring and summer （对应the regular baseball seasons of spring and summer),and professional baseball teams play well into the fall（对应a long period of time in the fall)．相关句提到“整个春夏两个赛季人们都在打棒球，职业棒球比赛进入秋季后还可以持续很长时间”。很明显，题干句意义与 短文中相关内容一致。
题干意为“棒球比赛和英国的板球比赛之间有很多共同点”。利用题干中的 名词和名词短语baseball, English game of cricket, many features作为定位线索，这样找到相 关句Although no other game is exactly like baseball, perhaps the one most nearly like it is the English game of cricket(英国板球比赛），相关句提到“与棒球运动最接近的是英国的板球运动”，这与题干句的句意一致，因此题干句陈述了正确的信息。
题干意为“足球可以被归类为一种观赏性的运动”。利用题干中的名词及名词短语football , spectator sport作为定位线索，这样找到相关句Some sports are called spectator sports , as the number of spectators greatly exceeds the number playing in the game（第一段最后一 句）… the football stadiums of some of the largest universities seat as many as 80,000 people。相关句提到“最大的大学足球体育馆能容纳下八万名观众”，而根据spectator sports的定义（观众的人数大大地超过参加比赛的球员的人数），由此可以得出这样的结论：足球是观赏性的运动。有的阅读判断题考查考生依据所给的阅读材料进行分析和推断的能力。
题干意为“许多美国人同橄榄球相比更喜欢篮球，因为橄榄球比赛很粗鲁，所以球员们都必须得穿上特别的制服”。利用题干中的名词及名词短语many Americans, basketball,football, players, special uniforms作为定位线索，这样找到相关句Basketball is the winter sport in American schools and colleges.Like football,basketball originated in the US and is not popular in other countries.Many Americans prefer it to football because it is played indoors throughout the winter and because it is a faster game。相关句提到“许多美国 人喜欢篮球胜过橄榄球是因为篮球整个冬季可以在室内比赛，而且节奏更快”，显然短文中陈 述的美国人更喜欢篮球的原因与题干陈述的原因不一致。
题干意为“在美国篮球在大学里是如此的受欢迎以至于每年都会举行全国范围内的篮球比赛”。利用题干中的名词及名词短语basketball , American , universities , nationwide university matches作为定位线索，这样找到相关句It（指篮球）is a very popular game with high schools,and in more than 20 states,state-wide high school matches（与na-tionwide university matches相对应）are held yearly，相关句意为“篮球在美国中学里非常流行，在20多个州里每年都要举行全州规模的中学篮球比赛”，但该句没有提到大学是否每年都要举行全国性的比赛。整篇短文中也没有提到大学是否会每年举行全国性比赛。
题干意为“赛马迷不能被认为是运动员，因为他们是观众，他们主要的兴趣是赌博”。利用题干中的名词及名词短语horse-racing fans, sportsmen, spectators, primary interest , gambling作为定位线索，这样发现相关句Other spectator sports include wrestling, boxing,and horse racing.…The so-called sportsmen are the spectators,who do“not assemble”primarily to see the horses race,but to bet upon the outcome of each race.Gambling is the attraction of horse racing，相关句提到“赛马比赛吸引人之处是赌博，赛马迷只是对赌博感兴趣”，显然相关句与题干意义一致。

American sports are quite distinct from those played elsewhere in the world.The top four spectator team sports are American football,baseball,basketball,and ice hockey.Baseball is the oldest among these sports.The professional game dates from 1869 and has no close rivals in popularity until the 1960s;though baseball is no longer the most popular sport,it is still referred to as the nationa! pastime.Little boys play baseball in parks and empty lots,in streets and in alleys;and picnics all through the hot summer months include at least a few innings（回合）of baseball with boys and girls, young and old,taking turns at bat. Probably no American was very surprised to read in the newspapers that when a United States atomic submarine surfaced at the North Pole,the crewmen played a game of baseball.
Also unlike the professional levels of the other popular spectator sports in the U.S.,Major League Baseball teams play almost every day from April to October. American football(known simply as"football"in the U.S.)now attracts more television viewers than baseball;however, National Football League teams play only 16 regular -season games each year,so baseball is the great leader in ticket sales.The really important professional players are members of the 24 teams in America's two major baseball leagues.Each summer they are America's national heroes.At the end of the season,when the two top teams play against each other to find the winner of the"World Series",excitement and tension rise in cities all over the country.Fans make long trips to watch the games and to shout from their seats in the bleachers（廉价座位）.Millions of others tune in on radio and television,sometimes making it a topic of conversation.And long after it is all over,baseball fans talk over the scores and the players,inning by inning,and the batting averages of the players this year compared to other years.(Batting averages show the percentage of times a player hits the ball effectively)
The President of the United States is invited to start the season each year by tossing the ball into the first game in Washington
D.C．一and he rarely fails to come.

Baseball is the oldest among the top four spectator team sports.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned

答案：A
解析：
美国的体育运动和世界上其他地方的体育运动类似。第一段第一句： American sports are quite distinct from those played elsewhere in the world．美国的体育运动和世界上其他地方的体育运动截然不同。因此本句是错误的。
四种最受欢迎的团体运动中，棒球的历史最为悠久。第一段第二、三句： The top four spectator team sports are American football,baseball,basketball,and ice hockey.Baseball is the oldest among these sports．四种最吸引观众的团体性运动分别是美式橄榄球、棒球、篮球和冰上曲棍球。这些运动中棒球历史最为悠久。因此本句话是正确的。
当读到核潜艇的船员在北极进行了场棒球比赛的新闻时，任何一个美国人都不会感到惊讶，因为棒球是美国的国球，很多人都喜欢这项运动。第一段第四句：…though baseball is no longer the most popular sport,it is still referred to as the national pastime．尽管棒球如今不再是最受欢迎的运动，但是依然被看作是美国的国球。接下来用具体例子来说明棒球运动在美国的受欢迎程度，最后一个关于核潜艇船员打棒球的例子也是为了说明这一点。因此本句话是正确的。
美式橄榄球在门票梢量方面仅次于棒球。文中对此没有提及。
当前两名球队进行决赛时，这个国家的很多人都觉得紧张而兴奋。At the end of the season,when the two top teams play against each other to find the winner of the "World Series", excitement and tension rise in cities all over the country．季末的时候当前两名球队为夺得“世界职业棒球大赛冠军”称号一决高低的时候，全国上下弥漫着兴奋和紧张的情绪。因此本句话是正确的。
棒球赛季结束不久之后人们就停止谈论棒球了。And long after it is all over, baseball fans talk over the scores and the players,...compared to other years．比赛结束很久之后，一些棒球迷还会谈论一场一场比赛的分数和球员的表现，以及球员今年和往年相比的安打率。因此本句是错误的。
美国总统之所以受邀在华盛顿特区开启棒球赛季大概是因为总统喜欢棒球运动。本文主要内容就是介绍棒球运动在美国的“国球”地位，所以最后一段说美国总统受邀开启棒球赛季依然是为了说明这个主题，而并不是因为美国总统喜欢棒球运动。因此本句是错误的。

题干意为“足球可以被归类为一种观赏性的运动”。利用题干中的名词及名词短语football , spectator sport作为定位线索，这样找到相关句Some sports are called spectator sports , as the number of spectators greatly exceeds the number playing in the game（第一段最后一 句）… the football stadiums of some of the largest universities seat as many as 80,000 people。相关句提到“最大的大学足球体育馆能容纳下八万名观众”，而根据spectator sports的定义（观众的人数大大地超过参加比赛的球员的人数），由此可以得出这样的结论：足球是观赏性的运动。有的阅读判断题考查考生依据所给的阅读材料进行分析和推断的能力。
题干意为“许多美国人同橄榄球相比更喜欢篮球，因为橄榄球比赛很粗鲁，所以球员们都必须得穿上特别的制服”。利用题干中的名词及名词短语many Americans, basketball,football, players, special uniforms作为定位线索，这样找到相关句Basketball is the winter sport in American schools and colleges.Like football,basketball originated in the US and is not popular in other countries.Many Americans prefer it to football because it is played indoors throughout the winter and because it is a faster game。相关句提到“许多美国 人喜欢篮球胜过橄榄球是因为篮球整个冬季可以在室内比赛，而且节奏更快”，显然短文中陈 述的美国人更喜欢篮球的原因与题干陈述的原因不一致。
题干意为“在美国篮球在大学里是如此的受欢迎以至于每年都会举行全国范围内的篮球比赛”。利用题干中的名词及名词短语basketball , American , universities , nationwide university matches作为定位线索，这样找到相关句It（指篮球）is a very popular game with high schools,and in more than 20 states,state-wide high school matches（与na-tionwide university matches相对应）are held yearly，相关句意为“篮球在美国中学里非常流行，在20多个州里每年都要举行全州规模的中学篮球比赛”，但该句没有提到大学是否每年都要举行全国性的比赛。整篇短文中也没有提到大学是否会每年举行全国性比赛。
题干意为“赛马迷不能被认为是运动员，因为他们是观众，他们主要的兴趣是赌博”。利用题干中的名词及名词短语horse-racing fans, sportsmen, spectators, primary interest , gambling作为定位线索，这样发现相关句Other spectator sports include wrestling, boxing,and horse racing.…The so-called sportsmen are the spectators,who do“not assemble”primarily to see the horses race,but to bet upon the outcome of each race.Gambling is the attraction of horse racing，相关句提到“赛马比赛吸引人之处是赌博，赛马迷只是对赌博感兴趣”，显然相关句与题干意义一致。

American sports are quite distinct from those played elsewhere in the world.The top four spectator team sports are American football,baseball,basketball,and ice hockey.Baseball is the oldest among these sports.The professional game dates from 1869 and has no close rivals in popularity until the 1960s;though baseball is no longer the most popular sport,it is still referred to as the nationa! pastime.Little boys play baseball in parks and empty lots,in streets and in alleys;and picnics all through the hot summer months include at least a few innings（回合）of baseball with boys and girls, young and old,taking turns at bat. Probably no American was very surprised to read in the newspapers that when a United States atomic submarine surfaced at the North Pole,the crewmen played a game of baseball.
Also unlike the professional levels of the other popular spectator sports in the U.S.,Major League Baseball teams play almost every day from April to October. American football(known simply as"football"in the U.S.)now attracts more television viewers than baseball;however, National Football League teams play only 16 regular -season games each year,so baseball is the great leader in ticket sales.The really important professional players are members of the 24 teams in America's two major baseball leagues.Each summer they are America's national heroes.At the end of the season,when the two top teams play against each other to find the winner of the"World Series",excitement and tension rise in cities all over the country.Fans make long trips to watch the games and to shout from their seats in the bleachers（廉价座位）.Millions of others tune in on radio and television,sometimes making it a topic of conversation.And long after it is all over,baseball fans talk over the scores and the players,inning by inning,and the batting averages of the players this year compared to other years.(Batting averages show the percentage of times a player hits the ball effectively)
The President of the United States is invited to start the season each year by tossing the ball into the first game in Washington
D.C．一and he rarely fails to come.

American football is the second leader in ticket sales after baseball.
A:Right
B:Wrong
C:Not mentioned

答案：C
解析：
美国的体育运动和世界上其他地方的体育运动类似。第一段第一句： American sports are quite distinct from those played elsewhere in the world．美国的体育运动和世界上其他地方的体育运动截然不同。因此本句是错误的。
四种最受欢迎的团体运动中，棒球的历史最为悠久。第一段第二、三句： The top four spectator team sports are American football,baseball,basketball,and ice hockey.Baseball is the oldest among these sports．四种最吸引观众的团体性运动分别是美式橄榄球、棒球、篮球和冰上曲棍球。这些运动中棒球历史最为悠久。因此本句话是正确的。
当读到核潜艇的船员在北极进行了场棒球比赛的新闻时，任何一个美国人都不会感到惊讶，因为棒球是美国的国球，很多人都喜欢这项运动。第一段第四句：…though baseball is no longer the most popular sport,it is still referred to as the national pastime．尽管棒球如今不再是最受欢迎的运动，但是依然被看作是美国的国球。接下来用具体例子来说明棒球运动在美国的受欢迎程度，最后一个关于核潜艇船员打棒球的例子也是为了说明这一点。因此本句话是正确的。
美式橄榄球在门票梢量方面仅次于棒球。文中对此没有提及。
当前两名球队进行决赛时，这个国家的很多人都觉得紧张而兴奋。At the end of the season,when the two top teams play against each other to find the winner of the "World Series", excitement and tension rise in cities all over the country．季末的时候当前两名球队为夺得“世界职业棒球大赛冠军”称号一决高低的时候，全国上下弥漫着兴奋和紧张的情绪。因此本句话是正确的。
棒球赛季结束不久之后人们就停止谈论棒球了。And long after it is all over, baseball fans talk over the scores and the players,...compared to other years．比赛结束很久之后，一些棒球迷还会谈论一场一场比赛的分数和球员的表现，以及球员今年和往年相比的安打率。因此本句是错误的。
美国总统之所以受邀在华盛顿特区开启棒球赛季大概是因为总统喜欢棒球运动。本文主要内容就是介绍棒球运动在美国的“国球”地位，所以最后一段说美国总统受邀开启棒球赛季依然是为了说明这个主题，而并不是因为美国总统喜欢棒球运动。因此本句是错误的。
