problem by the school. He first tried to ［36］______ some of the popular outdoor sports, but they were all too rough. The men were getting bruised from ［37］______ each other and ［38］______ hit with equipment. So, Naismith decided to invent a game that would incorporate the most common elements of outdoor team sports without having the real physical ［39］______ .

Next he decided ［41］______ an elevated goal, so that scoring would depend on skill and accuracy rather than on ［42］______ only. His goals were two peach baskets, ［43］______ to ten-foot-high balconies at each end of the gym. The basic ［44］______ of the game was to throw the ball into the basket. Naismith wrote rules for the game, ［45］______ of which, though with some small changes, are still ［46］______ effect. Basketball was a(n) ［47］______ success. The students ［48］______ it to their friends, and the new sport quickly ［49］______ on. Today, basketball is one of the most popular games ［50］______ the world.

TEXT A
University teaching in the United Kingdom is very different at both undergraduate and graduate levels from that of many overseas countries.
An undergraduate course consists of a series of lectures, seminars and tutorials and, in science and engineering, laboratory classes, which in total account for about 15 hours per week. Arts students may well find that their official contact with teachers is less than this average, while science and engineering students may expect to be timetabled for up to 20 hours per week. Students studying for a particular degree will take a series of lecture courses which run in parallel at a fixed time in each week and may last one academic term or the whole year. Associated with each lecture course are seminars, tutorials and laboratory classes which draw upon, analyze, illustrate or amplify the topics presented in the lectures. Lecture classes can vary in size from 20 to 200 although larger-sized lectures tend to decrease as students progress into the second and third year and more options become available. Seminars and tutorials are on the whole much smaller than lecture classes and in some departments can be on a one-to-one basis (that is, one member of staff to one student). Students are normally expected to prepare work in advance for seminars and tutorials and this can take the form of researching a topic for discussion, by writing essays or by solving problems. Lectures, seminars and tutorials are all one hour in length, whilst laboratory classes usually last either 2 or 3 hours. Much emphasis is put on how
