    Unlike most sports, which evolved over time from street games, basketball was designed by one man to【C1】______ a particular purpose. The man was Dr. James Naismith, and his purpose was to invent a vigorous game that could be played【C2】______ in the winter.
    In 1891, Naismith was an instructor at a training school, which trained physical education instructors for the YMCAs. That year the school was trying to come up with a physical activity that the men could enjoy between the football and baseball seasons. None of the standard indoor activities【C3】______their interest for long. Naismith was asked to solve the problem by the school.
    He first tried to【C4】______ some of the popular outdoor sports, but they were all too rough.
    The men were getting bruised from tackling each other and being 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【C5】______ contact.
    Most popular sports used a ball. So he chose a soccer ball because it was soft and large enough that it【C6】______no equipment, such as a bat or a racket to hit it. Next he decided on an elevated goal, so that scoring would depend on skill and【C7】______ rather than on strength only.
    His goals were two peach baskets, fixed to ten-foot-high balconies at each end of the gym. The basic 【C8】______ of the game was to throw the ball into the basket. Naismith wrote rules for the game, many of which, though with some small changes, are still in effect Basketball was an immediate success. The students【C9】______ it to their friends, and the new sport quickly caught on Today, basketball is one of the most【C10】______games throughout the world.
【C3】
选项
答案J
解析 空格所在句缺少谓语，因此空格处应填入动词。上一句提到“学校想要想出一种供男子在足球与棒球赛季之间消遣的体育活动”，由此可见，没有哪项室内常规活动能让他们长久保持兴趣，词库中的held代入，hold one’s interest意为“吸引……的兴趣”，符合要求。词库中的mused“引起”为强干扰项，但roused是瞬间动词，不跟for long连用，故排除。
