About a week ago，when I was playing basketball at our local park，I noticed a small group of boys picking on a smaller，skinnier boy．They were   1   him names and even pushed him to the ground and kicked dirt in his face．  2  I saw that，I walked over to the group．

I stepped   3  them and the smaller boy，and asked them politely what this boy had done worthy of   4  they were doing to him．One of the boys replied，"He's weird．" At that，I asked one of the boys if he thought his friend was weird，and the   5  was" No．" So，I asked another boy what the word" weird"  6  ，and he said，" Different．"That was my cue（暗示）．I told them that everyone is  7  ，and that they all looked just as different to the other boy as he did to them．They all stood   8  for a moment，and then the most amazing thing happened．One of the boys helped the small boy off the ground and then said sorry to him．He  9  to let him play with them．

In fall 2006，the National Basketball Association （NBA）started using basketballs made with synthetic ，or man-made ，material instead of leather（皮革）．They made the change be- cause they wanted every basketball they use to feel and bounce（彈起）the same．Not all leather balls are exactly alike in weight or how they bounce，but the synthetic balls are．

However，some players complained right away that the new balls bounced differently and were actually harder to control than the leather ones．

Physics helped answer questions about why the new balls felt different．For example，the scientists studied friction（摩擦力），which in this case affects the ability of a player to hold onto a ball．"The greater the friction，the better it will stick to his hand，"explains a scientist．

Tests on both wet and dry balls showed that while the synthetic ball was easier to hold onto when dry，it had less friction and became much harder to hold onto when wet．That's because sweat（汗水） stays on the surface of the synthetic balls but gets taken into the leather balls．

The scientists also tested bounce and found that the logo （商標）printed on the new balls made their surface uneven（不平） and caused them to bounce a little strangely com- pared with the leather balls．

In January，the NBA went back to using the leather bails．They aren't perfect，but for now，that's just the way the ball bounces．

1．Why were the synthetic balls expected to be used in NBA according to the text?

A．when friction is greater                    B．when friction is less

C．when it is heavier                         D．when it bounces strangely

3．The synthetic ball bounces differently from the leather one mainly because _________

A．it is wet                                  B．it is dry

C．there's a logo on it                       D．its weight remains the same

4．It can be inferred（推斷） from the text that _________．

A．a synthetic ball takes in water faster than a leather ball

B．a leather ball is more difficult to make than a synthetic one

C．a synthetic ball is more expensive than a leather ball

5．The underlined word" They" in the last paragraph refers to __________．

A．the synthetic balls                        B．the leather balls

Parents always think their babies~ are very special．They want others to   1   their children．For this reason，they sometimes give their children unusual   2  ．They may choose names such as Chelma，Ukiah，Brianna，or Elvira．There are some advantages to this practice．A child who is   3   an uncommon name may feel special from childhood．  4   ，sometimes we remember people with unusual names   5  than we remember people with ordinary names．

__6  ，unusual names can cause problems．They can be hard for teachers and friends to pronounce．They can also be hard to spell，  7   computers may automatically（自動的） change them．For example，Jule may become July．Some people may have a bad impression on an unusual name   8  they even meet the person． 9  of all，other children some- times don't like kids with uncommon names．The message for parents is，" Think   10  before you give your child an unusual name．’’
