In October 1961 at Crowley Field in Cincinnati Ohio an old deaf gentleman named William E. Hoy stood up to throw the first ball of the World Series. Most people at Crowley Field on that day probably did not remember Hoy because he had retired (退休) from profess-ional baseball 58 years earlier in 1903. However he had been an outstanding player and the deaf people still talk about him and his years in baseball.William E. Hoy was born in Houckstown Ohio on May 23, 1862. He became deaf when he was two years old. He attended the Columbus Ohio School for the deaf. After graduation he started playing baseball while working as a shoemaker.Hoy began playing professional baseball in 1886 for Oshkosh (Wisconsin) of the Northw- estern League. In 1888 he started as an outfielder (外场手) with the old Washington Senators. His small figure and speed made him an outstanding base runner. He was very good at stealing bases during his career. In the 1888 major league season he stole 82 bases. He was also the Senators’ leading hitter in 1888. Hoy was clever and he threw right-handed and batted left-handed, on June 19, 1889 he threw out three batters (击球手) at the plate from his outfield position.The arm signals used by judges today to show balls and strikes began because of Hoy. The judge lifted his right arm to show that the pitch was a strike and his left arm to signal that it was a ball.For many years people talked about Hoy’s last ball game in 1903. He was playing for Los Angeles of the Pacific Coast Winter League. It was a memorable game because Hoy hit a wonderful ball which won the game. It was a very foggy day and therefore very hard to see the ball. In the ninth inning (棒球的一局) with two men out, Hoy managed to catch a fly ball to make the third out in spite of the fog. Los Angeles defeated their opposition and won the game.After he retired Hoy stayed busy. He ran a dairy farm near Cincinnati for 20 years. He also became a public speaker and traveled giving speeches. Until a few years before his death he took 4—10 mile walks several mornings a week. On December 15,1961 William Hoy died at the age of 99. In which order did the following things happen in Hoy’s life()a. Hoy worked as a shoemaker.b. Hoy began to run a diary farm.c. Hoy played a memorable game in the heavy fog.d. Hoy threw the first ball of the World Series.e. Hoy became deaf.

Most people talk about the "five" senses of man. And it is true that we get our information about the outside world from our senses of sight, heating, smell, touch and taste. Researchers tell us that sense of sight—our visual(视觉的) sense—gives us up to eighty percent of what we know about the world outside our bodies; while the other senses, the auditory (hearing), the olfactory (smell), the tactile (touch), and the gustatory (taste) bring into our brains information about the other 20% of what is happening. But there are two other senses that we cannot get along without it, though they are seldom noticed. These are the sense of balance, without which we would act like a drank man, and the kinesthetic (运动觉的)sense, which gives us our ideas about our own motion (行动). The senses of hearing, smell, touch and taste supply us with()

A. about 80% of our information about the world
B. about half of our information about the world
C. about 20% of our information about the world
