        Basketball is still a young game. It's over a hundred years . In the winter of 1891, a certain college was having some trouble with its boy students. The weather was so bad  the students had to stay inside. As they couldn't play outside, they were  (happy), and some even got into fights from time to time.  

        At the college, a teacher  (call) James Naismith was asked to invent a game so that the students might have something to play with in cold winters.  was not easy to invent such a game because it had to be played inside, and the court (球场) was not very large.

        Dr. Naismith thought for a few days and invented  kind of ball game. It was a fast, wonderful game with much moving and passing of the ball. It was played  two teams. To make a score, the ball had to  (throw) into the basket ten feet above the floor on the wall. 

        At each end of the court there was such a basket. At first, Dr. Naismith wanted to throw the ball into a box. As he could not find  (box) of the right size, he had to use fruit baskets instead. That is  the game got its name. And now it has become one of the most popular sports in the world.
