B In 1891, Dr. James A.Naismith was asked to create a game that could be played indoors during the hard winters. Students were tired of staying inside, and they looked forward to any sporting activity. So Naismith put up two peach baskets on opposite walls and got his class of eighteen students to play a game of “basketball”. The team that dropped the ball into the basket more times would win. At first a soccer ball was used, but in 1894, it was decided that the ball should be 81 centimeters around and weigh 500 grams. Finally the weight increased to 600 grams. The baskets used in early games had the bottoms in them, and after each goal someone had to climb a ladder in order to get the ball out. In 1906, open baskets were introduced, which allowed the ball to pass through. And as a result the game became faster. In the beginning, no backboards were used either. Therefore, fans sitting in the balcony behind the basket would push away the ball when the opponent was going to score. Also in the early days, each team was made up of nine players. It wasn't until 1897 that five-player team became official. 1.At the beginning, basketball was created to play ________.
