Passage 1
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 summer, and professional baseball teams play well into the fall. Although no other game is exactly 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 country, 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 football 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.

1. Hunting and fishing are mainly favored by men, young and old in the US.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned
分析：利用题干中的核心结构Hunting and fishing和特征结构men, young and old作为答案线索，这样发现答案相关句：
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(娱乐) anywhere sufficient space is found; and hunting and fishing. Most sports are seasonal(季节性的), 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.
发现答案相关句中并没有提到men, young and old，且根据该相关句及相邻句子的句意不能推导出也不能反驳问题句的句意，所以该句的说法为没提到。 favor vt. n. 赞同，帮助;促进偏袒;偏爱
e.g. May I ask you a favor? 我可以请您帮个忙吗?
in favor of赞成;支持
e.g. I am in favor of stopping work now. 我赞成现在停止工作。
a variety of adj.多种的
exceed vt.超过，超出
e.g. The cost will not exceed $50. 费用不会超过50美元。
e.g. The results of the competition exceeded our expectations.比赛的结果比我们预料的好。Anywhere adv. 在什么地方;在任何地方
e.g. Did you go anywhere yesterday? 你昨天去没去过什么地方?
e.g. Sit anywhere you like.随便坐哪儿都成。
2 Professional baseball teams can continue to play for a long period of time in the fall after the regular baseball seasons of spring and summer.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned
分析：利用题干中的核心结构和特征结构(黑体部分)作为答案线索，这样发现答案相关句：
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play for a long period of time in the fall).
判断该句的句意与问题句的句意一致，该题主要是考察well into the fall结构的含义。 Into: prep: to a point within the limits of a period of time or extent of space/达到一段时 间或一定空间限制之间的程度
e.g. well into the week.到一周周末
look into v.窥视, 浏览, 观察
go into v.进入, 加入, 探究
enter into v.进入, 参加, 成为...一部分
throughout adv., prep. 各处，到处;遍及;从头到尾;全部时 间
e.g. He is famous throughout the world. 他闻名于世界。

判断该句的句意与问题句的句意一致， 因此该问题句的说法正确。
4 Football can be classified as a spectator sport.
A. Right B. Wrong C. Not mentioned
分析：利用题干中的核心结构(黑体部分)作为答案线索，这样发现答案相关句：
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)
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 country, 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 (有衬垫的)uniforms and helmets because the game is rough and injuries are likely to occur.
该题考察考生的推断能力：既然最大的足球体育馆能容纳下80，000观众，那么根据spectator sports(观赏性运动)的定义，足球应该是spectator sports。
