【1】   It has around 3 billion fans—nearly half the world's population!

And about 300 million people play this game. That's 4 percent of the world's population!

 【2】    Many people in old days played the early form of this modern game. Cuju(蹴鞠), a ball-kicking game in China, was reported as early as 2, 500 B. C. . Around the same time in Greece, people were also playing a similar ball game without using their hands.

But modern soccer didn't become official(官方的)until 1863. An Englishman called Cobb Morley introduced the idea of a soccer association(联盟)  【3】   From then on, other associations in the countries were set up. They came together—to make up the FIFA, which organizes the World Cup.

It's not easy to tell what makes soccer so popular. 【4】   Soccer needs only two feet and a ball. This makes it a sport that developing countries can play easi- ly. Some of the sport's best players come from these poor nations .

【5】  The sport's no-hands rule makes beautiful dance—like movements on the field.

What's more, this sport excites the heart. Teams might score only a few times each match, so matches can turn around suddenly.

25、Once upon a time, there was a lion in a forest. He was the king of the whole forest. One day, the lion wanted to eat his three ministers (大臣)—a bear, a fox and a rabbit, because he hadn’t eaten meat for long. So he thought of a trick.

He opened his mouth and called the bear to tell him what it smelled like. “Your Majesty, the smell in your mouth is very unpleasant. It is fishy and smelly,” the bear said honestly.

The lion was very angry and said the bear had insulted (侮辱) him. So he punished the bear and ate him up.

Then the lion called the fox to smell it. When the fox saw what had happened to the bear, he tried to please the lion. He said to the lion, “Ah! Your Majesty, the smell in your mouth is very pleasant. It is like a sweet wine or a fine perfume.”

But the lion was very angry again. He said that the fox was a flatterer (马屁精), and that he must be bad for the country. Then he punished the fox and ate him, too.

Finally, the lion asked the rabbit what it smelled. The rabbit replied, “Your Majesty, I am so sorry! I have a stuffy nose (鼻塞) from a recent cold and now I can’t smell anything. If you allow me to go home and rest for a few days, I will be at your service when I get better.”

The lion found no excuse, so he let the rabbit go home. The rabbit escaped and saved his life.

When dealing with the king’s unfriendly order, the rabbit didn’t blindly follow it. Instead, he “took care of the left and right” to refuse him. That saved his life. What a clever rabbit!

26、For people, it’s not surprising that we can open a door, lift a heavy box and control ourselves while walking in the snow. But can a robot do these? Well, Google’s new robot, Atlas, can not only do these things but it can stand up if it falls down. Although the robot may be slow and clumsy, it was created mainly to work in dangerous places for humans.

Now, robots are much smarter than you might imagine. On March 9 this year, AlphaGo, an artificial intelligence (人工智能) program made by Google’s DeepMind, challenged top professional Go player Lee Sedol from South Korea. And AlphaGo beat Lee at last.

AI is when computers or computer software is able to have intelligent behavior, such as thinking or acting like a human. In our daily life, we already use AI in many ways, such as Apple’s Siri and search engines like Baidu and Google.

Some people may worry whether computers are now smart enough to beat us at everything. But experts say that is not the case. Real life problems can be more difficult than the Go game. For example, humans can watch a person throw down a cup of coffee and know that the result will be a mess on the floor. A computer program would have to know the size of the cup, the height of the cup from the floor and many other things to find out the result. But we never know what will happen in the future.

【1】The underlined word “clumsy” in the first paragraph means “________” in Chinese.

A．敏捷的

B．结实的

C．笨拙的

D．呆傻的

【2】Atlas was created mainly to ________.

A．help the disabled people

B．show the development of technology

C．help people do simple jobs

D．work in dangerous places for humans

【3】From the passage, we can infer (推断) that ________.

A．humans will have to follow robots’ orders

B．it’s difficult for robots to take human’s place

C．robots will be just as common as mobile phones

D．people will depend on their robots to do all the things
