问题     Basketball is still a young game. in the winter or 1891, a certain college was having trouble with its boy students. The weather was so terrible that the students had to stay indoors. Since they could not enjoy their sports outside as usual, they were unhappy, and some of them often got into fights from time to time.
    Finally, one of the teachers at the college, J. E. Naismith, was asked to invent a new game for the students. It was not an easy job because such a game had to be played indoors, and the court was not very large.
    Naismith thought for a few days and invented a kind of ball game. It was a fast. exciting game with much moving and passing of the ball. It was played between two teams. To make score, the ball had to be thrown into a basket ten feet high above the floor on the wail. At each end of the court there was such a basket. At first, Naismith had planned to have the ball thrown into a box. As he could not find boxes of the right size, he had to use fruit basket in- stead. That is how the game got its name.
In fact, it has just a history of ______.

选项 A、less than two hundred years
B、more than a hundred years
C、less than a century
D、nearly a century

答案B

解析 本题属推理分析题。通读全文后可知:篮球在1891年的冬天被发明,故它有一百多年的历史了。
