Section C (12 marks)

Directions: Complete the following passage by filling in each blank with one word that best fits the context.

When kids in parts of the world want to play, they often make soccer balls out of trash tied together with string. “ 小题1:  the areas used for playing fields are often rough and rocky, millions of real balls go flat (变瘪)   小题2:  24 hours,” says Tim Jahnigen, a California businessman. Determined to solve this problem,   小题3:   created an indestructible ball called the One World Futbol.

The ball is made of   小题4:  special material, ethylene-vinyl acetate foam. It’s lightweight, it’s flexible, and— 小题5:  important—it holds its shape.

The One World Futbol needs no pump   小题6: won’t wear out, even on rough surfaces. When tested, 小题7:   withstood (经受住) being crushed by a car, and even being chewed on by a lion.

Although it costs more to produce   小题8:  a typical soccer ball, Jahnigen estimates the One World Futbol can last 30 years. So far, it’s been given to kids in 143 countries. (154 words)
