　　You may play ping-pong but perhaps you don't know who invented it．The story is that it started when two students at Cambridge University began knocking a cork(軟木塞)to each other across a table, using old boxes．

　　In about the year 1800, an American businessman of sports goods(體育商品)produced a game that he called Indoor Tennis．The Americans showed no interest in it．He shipped it to London and it soon became popular in Britain．The game was then played across dining room tables, or on the floor with the net string(網(wǎng)子)between chairs．The players used a ball made of cork or rubber．

　　A few years later a hollow(空的)ball like the one we use today was invented．People all over the world loved it at once．A man called Mr．Wood of London, had the idea of covering the bats(拍子)with rubber．The London businessmen who first sold the game in England called it “Ping-pong”－“ping” meant the sound of the bat hitting the ball, and “pong” was the sound of the ball hitting the table．

　　The game is played everywhere, but not everybody likes it．Some even think it is a silly game．

答案：
解析：

　　1．beginning

　　2．played

　　3．using

　　4．1800

　　5．produced

　　6．but

　　7．British/Englishmen
