9、： There are designer shirts, skirts and jeans, and now theres a designer sport: wallyball. Wallyball is a version of volleyball played on a racquetball court. It is hardly an old folk recreation that modern-day enthusiasts revived. Rather, Joe Garcia designed the sport when the racquetball boom peak

10、ed around 1980. The game is suitable for teams of two to four persons. The owners of racquetball clubs and neighboring pubs appreciate this quality instead of two people drinking beer after an hour on a racquetball court, wallyball provides up to eight. But let us backtrack a moment. In the beginnin

11、g, there was handball. People played it in firehouses and gyms. The problem with handball is that it is played with a hard little rubber ball that stings the hands, and it requires that people use both hands equally well, which few people do. Then someone discovered that a hollow rubber ball and a s

12、hort, strung racket could be used on handball game. While racquetball is easy to play poorly, the game is difficult to master and play well. When the masses took to jogging and aerobics, the owners of racquetball clubs found they could no longer make a living on racquetball alone. Enter Joe Garcia a

13、nd wallyball. Wallyball seems a relatively trivial innovation. But its origins call our attention to the ever-changing, dynamic quality of life. We are led by a commonsense orientation to regard the world a stable one. For practical purposes, most objects and events seem sufficiently durable to allo

14、w us to treat them as if they are unchanging. Indeed, we often think of permanence as being the natural state of affairs and change as something requiring special explanation. In reality, however, social life is an ongoing process, constantly renewing, remaking, and transforming itself. Events in th

15、e world compel people to change. As people change, they influence events in the social world of which they are a part. People like Joe Garcia, then, bring about change as they confront and deal with social life.21.Wallyball first appeared _.A.as handballB.as racquetballC.in ancient timeD.in about 19

19、escent boy likes to do the real things in life, to do the things that matter. He would rather be a plumbers mate and do a real job that requires doing than learning about hydrostatics sitting at a desk, without understanding what practical use they are going to be. Logically we should learn about th

20、ings before doing them and that is presumably why the pundits enforce this in our educational system. But it is not the natural way nor the best way. The adolescent wants to do things first for only then does he appreciate the problems involved and want to learn more about them. They do these things

21、 better in primitive life, for there at puberty the boy joins his father in making canoes, patching huts, going out fishing or hunting, and preparing weapons of war. He is serving his apprenticeship in the actual accomplishments of life. It is not surprising that anthropologists find that the adoles

22、cents of primitive communities do not suffer from the same neurotic difficulties as those of civilized life. This is not because they are permitted more freedom, but because they are given more natural outlets for their native interests and powers and allowed to grow up freely into a full life of re

23、sponsibility. In the last century this was recognized in the apprenticeship system, which allowed the boy to go out with the master carpenter, thatcher or ploughman, to engage in the actual work of carpentry, roof-mending or ploughing, and so to learn his trade. It was the same in medicine, in which

24、 a budding young doctor of sixteen learnt his job by going round with the general practitioner and helping with the blood-letting and physic. The great advantage of this system is that it lets the apprentice see the practical problems before he sets to work learning how to solve them, and he can the

25、refore take a more intelligent interest in his theoretical work. Since more knowledge of more things is now required in order to cope with the adult world, the period of growing up to independence takes much longer than it did in a more primitive community, and the responsibility for such education,

26、 which formerly was in the hands of the parents, is now necessarily undertaken by experts at school. They have to bear the basic principle in mind, i.e., to engage responsibility and to learn through responsibility.26.Which of the following statements best sums up the first paragraph?A.Young people
