The first true piece of sports equipment that man invented was the ball.
In ancient Egypt, as everywhere, pitching stones was a favorite children’s game. But a badly thrown rock could hurt a child. Looking for something less dangerous to throw, the Egyptians made what were probably the first balls.
At first, balls were made of grass or leaves held together by vines. Later they were made of pieces of animal skin sewed together and stuffed with feathers or hay. Even though the Egyptians were warlike, they found time for peaceful games. Before long they had developed a number of ball games, each with its own rules. Perhaps they played ball more for instruction than for fun. Ball playing was thought of mainly as a way to teach young men the speed and skill they would need for war.
选项
A、throwing stones was not fun
B、throwing stones often caused injuries
C、games with stones did not have rules
D、rocks were too heavy to throw
答案
B
解析
本题考查的是考生对细节的把握。答案在第二段的第二、三句:"但是一块投掷得不好的石头可能使孩子受伤。为了找到某种危险性较小的投掷物,埃及人造出了可能是最初的球"。说明球的发明起初是因为投掷石头过于危险了,需要寻找替代品,因此选B,原因是"丢石头经常引起受伤";A项是"丢石头不好玩",C项"丢石头的游戏没有规则"和D项"石头丢起来太重"都不符合文章的意思。
