单选题People all over the world know Wimbledon as the centre of lawn tennis.
In 1874 it was a country village, but it was the home of the All England Croquet Club. The Club had been there since 1864. A lot of people played croquet in England at that time and enjoyed it, but the national championships did not attract many people. So the Club had very little money.
"This new game of lawn tennis seems to have plenty of action (精彩场面), and people like watching it," they thought. "Shall we allow people to play lawn tennis on some of our beautiful croquet lawns?"
In 1877, Wimbledon held the first world lawn tennis championships (men"s singles).
Wimbledon grew. There was some surprise and doubt, of course, when the Club allowed women to play in the first women"s singles championship in 1884. But the ladies played well--even in long skirts that hid their legs and feet. Until 1907 the winners, both men anti women, were always British, but since 1936 the victory has usually gone to an American or an Australian. British people were very happy when an English girl, Ann Jones, won the championship in 1969.

单选题The air surrounding us is important to everyone. Without air, we could not exist. Everyone understands that. But air is necessary in many other ways — ways that are not always so obvious or widely known. If we did not have air, there would be no sound. Sound travels through air. Where there is no air, there is no sound. Without air there would be no fire. There would be no automobiles, since motors need air in order to operate. Without air, there would be no wind or clouds. The night time would be very cold and the days very hot. We would be forced to seek shelter from the sun, as there would be no atmosphere to protect us from the sun's deadly rays. In this huge ocean of air surrounding the earth, there is more energy than in all the coal, oil and gas we have on the earth. Electrical energy is collected in the atmosphere as water is collected and stored in a dam (大坝). The existence of electricity in the air has been known for centuries. Men have gazed in wonder at the bright patterns of lightening in storm clouds. But thorough (彻底的,深入的) study of electricity in the air was not possible until the development of radio.

I find it annoying and funny when I
think about how we use protective or decorative wrappings (装饰性包装) in this
country. When I come home from the supermarket and start to
unpack, I am always shocked at the layers of wrappings we cover our food with.
There is hardly anything we buy that doesn't come in at least
two wrappings, and then several of them are gathered by the shop assistant and
put into a small bag. Then several of the small bags are grouped together and
put into a big bag. If you have several big bags with small bags in them, they
give you a cardboard box to put the packages-in-the-little-bags-in-the-big-bags
in. A lot of things we buy wouldn't really need any protective
wrapping at all. The skin of an orange protects an orange pretty well for most
of its natural life,but we aren't satisfied with what nature has given it. We
wrap them in plastic or put them in a net bag, and then in a paper bag. The
orange inside the skin, inside the plastic which is in the paper bag, must
wonder where it is. A box of biscuits often has waxed paper(蜡纸)
next to the biscuits, a cardboard box holding the food and then a decorative
wrapping around {{U}}it{{/U}}. A relative of ours bought a new sofa
recently because she liked the fine leather (皮革) it was covered with. She liked
it so much she didn't want it to get dirty, so she bought a cloth cover to put
over it. We may never again see the leather she's protecting.
