Аудиозапись № 18 к упражнению 1

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.
