Most people around the world love sports. In fact, there were also many kinds of sports in ancient China. Let's go back to ancient times to watch the ancient sports!

Ice frolicking ()

Ice frolicking was a term for many ice activities. It started in the Song Dynasty and reached its peak in the Qing Dynasty. It took place mostly in the north of China during winter. If one was good at it, he would be chosen to perform in the palace for the emperor and his family.

Fangzou ()

In the Yuan Dynasty, a long distance race called fangzou was held once a year. It was 600 years before the first modern Olympic Games. Like today's popular city marathon (马拉松) in the world, fangzou was also held between the two capital cities of the Yuan Dynasty at that time. It was almost as far as two marathons.

Cuju (蹴鞠)

Nowadays, football is popular all over the world. In 2004, FIFA (国际足联) announced that cuju was the world's earliest form of football. In Chinese "cu" means kicking, and "ju" means a leather ball. In the Qing Dynasty, cuju was one of the most popular activities during festivals. It was later introduced to Europe. In the 19th century, the British set up a set of rules and the modern football game was born.

With the passing of time, the rules and names of sports events have been very different, but people's love for sports has remained the same.

 阅读下列短文, 从每题所给的四个选项(A、B、C和D)中选出最佳选项。

Billy always loved blueberries. They were his favorite fruit. Today he was going to make juice with his uncle. His uncle liked to make juice out of everything. He made carrot juice, apple juice, vegetable juice, and more juices. He had never made blueberry juice before though!

First, Billy and his uncle went to a blueberry farm. They were each given a basket. They picked for an hour and got several pounds. It was hard work picking the little berries from the trees. Now Billy understood why they were expensive in the store.

Next, they had to wash the fruit. Some of them still had leaves. Those had to be pulled off. Then the bad berries had to be thrown away. They washed the berries and made them air- dry.

After that, they pushed the blueberries through a strainer(过滤器). The strainer caught most of the seeds and skins, and only left a small glass of dark purple juice to them.

When they tasted the juice, it wasn't very sweet. Billy's uncle didn't want to add white sugar(糖) to the juice. It was better to use a naturally sweet juice, like apple juice, pear juice, or grape juice. They use grape juice as a sweetener, because grapes had a similar color to the blueberries.

Finally, they could drink it. It was a lot of work to make juice, but it sure was refreshing!
