Basketball is one of the most popular games in the world and especially in the United States of America where it first appeared. Millions of spectators watch every important national and international game in this country.
It may be interesting to know that basketball didn’t develop slowly over the centuries as some old traditional games did. We can say for sure where and when it appeared.
The man who first thought of this game and who made up its rules lived in Springfield, Massachusetts. He taught physical education at the Springfield training school. He was a Canadian, his name was Naismith. Once in the year 1891, Mr Naismith decided to make his lessons more interesting for his students and he thought that they needed a new indoor game. For this new game he used the rules of an old Indian game together with the rules of British football.
When the teacher first asked his students to play the new game, he put on the walls two old wooden baskets. To score a goal a player had to get the ball into the basket. That’s why Naismith gave the new game the name of basketball.
Nowadays practically every nation of the world plays basketball. They often say that it is an international game.

Read the text and answer the following question. Choose the correct variant
The Christmas Tree
No one knows for sure who decorated the first Christmas tree. The custom of bringing an evergreen tree indoors and decorating it at Christmas started in Germany. One legend says that Martin Luther started the practice. Luther was an important Christian leader. According to the story, he noticed the starlit sky as he walked home one Christmas Eve about the year 1513. He thought the stars looked as if they were shining on the branches. When he arrived home, Martin Luther placed a small fir tree inside his house. He decorated it with lighted candles.
Decorating Christmas trees became popular in Germany. Prince Albert of Sachsen-Coburg-Gotha, the German husband of Queen Victoria, took the tradition to England. Both German and English people brought it to America. And now nearly every family in Great Britain and the USA has a Christmas tree.
The biggest Christmas tree in Britain is put up in Trafalgar Square in London. The people of Norway still give this tree every year to the British people to thank them for helping Norway against Hitler in the Second World War.
… started the practice of decorating the Christmas tree.
Nobody knows who
Queen Victoria
Martin Luther King
