I. Read the passage below and choose the best answer for each question
People have been playing with marbles for thousands of years. The first marbles were probably either river stones that happened to be naturally round enough to roll or, more likely, rounded globs of clay that were baked hardness. Such very old clay marbles have been found in both Greek and Roman ruins, and quartz spheres have been dated at around 6000 B.C. Harder and more durable marbles tend to inspire different kinds of games than soft clay marbles, which crack very easily. So with the advent of hand rounded and polished marbles made of agate or some other rugged, igneous rock, the ‘golden age’ of marbles and marble play flowered. Stone marbles began to appear in the early 1800s in what is now the southern part of Germany. Shortly after, handmade glass marbles appeared in the same part of Europe. For the next 120 years, marbles and marble playing-there were literally hundred of games - flourished in both Europe and America. Marble players developed their own vocabulary for different sizes and materials of marbles, as well as for the many kinds of games to be played and the way marbles were used in the games. For example, if you were going to play a game of Ring-Taw, one of the most popular and enduring marbles games, you would lag for the first shot, and then knuckle down from the baulk, trying your best to get a mib or two with your opponent’s immie.

| A. agate | B. glass | C. rock | D. clay |

| A. in the 18th century B. in the 1970s | C. in 6000 B.C D. after glass marbles were developed |
4. We can infer from the passage that marble playing __________.
| A. is a game only for children B. has many variations in games | C. is played according to one set of rules D. uses only one kind of marble |
5. We can conclude from lines 11-12 of the passage that the terminology of marble playing is __________.
| A. specialized B. used only by children | C. easy to understand D. derived from an ancient language |
