     Baseball is America's national sport. So it is not unusual that many popular expressions come from baseball.
But first, let me explain a little about the game.
     Each baseball team has nine players. The pitcher of one team throws the ball to a batter from the other team.
The batter attempts to hit the ball. If he misses, it is called a strike. If a batter gets three strikes, he loses his
turn at bat and is called out. The batter also is out if he hits the ball in the air and an opposing player catches it.
But if the batter hits the ball and it is not caught, the batter tries to run to one or more of the four bases on the
field. The batter can run to all four bases if he hits the ball over the fence or out of the ballpark. Such a hit is
called a homerun.
     Now, here are some common expressions from baseball. Someone who is "on the ball" is intelligent and able
to do a good job. But a person who "threw a curve ball" did something unexpected. Someone who "steps up to
the plate" is ready to do his or her job. A "pinch hitter" takes the place of someone else at a job or activity.
     Sometimes I have to give information quickly, without time to think it over. Then I would say something
"right off the bat". If someone is doing an extremely good job and is very successful,you might say he or she is
"batting one thousand."
     If I say I want to "touch base" with you, I will talk to you from time to time about something we plan to do.
I might say I "touched all the bases" if I did what is necessa- ry to complete a job or activity. And if I "covered
my bases" I was well prepared. However,someone who is "way off base" did something wrong or maybe even
dishonest or immoral. A person with strange ideas might be described as "out in left field".
     Finally, when a situation changes completely, we say "that is a whole new ballgame."

据专家权威分析,试题“阅读理解。 Baseball is America's national sport. So it is ..”主要考查你对  历史文化类阅读  等考点的理解。关于这些考点的“档案”如下:

历史文化类阅读

考点名称:历史文化类阅读

  • 历史文化类阅读:
    本类题型常用的方式是夹叙夹议。叙述的目的是为了议,所以要把握其议才是主要方面。
    阅读这类文章,先弄清其引入的话题,再弄清里面人物对其不同的看法,然后理解作者本身对话题的观点看法或思考。

  • 初中英语阅读理解的解题技巧:
    一、要注意养成良好的阅读心理,阅读时要去掉杂念,心绪要安定,精神要专一,要形成一种惬意的顺向心理。
    切不可一遇到几个生词难句,就心烦意乱,失去自控能力。心理学家告诉我们,任何恐慌,过分紧张的情绪都会形成一种消极因素妨碍大脑的正常思维功能。
    因此,遇到困难一定要从容不迫,心无旁骛。这样才能对所读的文章印象清晰,理解深刻。

    二、要提高视读的速度,考阅读理解,从另一个方面来说,考的是考试速度。因此做阅读理解时,要注意培养自己快速阅读的习惯。
    切不可在个别难懂的词句上磨蹭,只要全篇理解了,个别难懂的词句可以根据上下文和构词法去猜测,去推断。

    三、对文章的评价分析,一定要坚持“词不离句,句不离篇”,要理解文章作者的原意,而不能按你自己的意愿去想当然。
    切记:一想当然,就会出错。
