Tennis is a game for two or four players who hit a ball backwards and forwards across a net. The word is probably of the French origin (tenez - take! as a server's call). 2. Eighty years ago, Mr. E. Goode of Putney, South London went to the chemist's to buy some aspirins. In the shop, he almost forgot about his tablets as he stood looking at the pimpled rubber mat on the counter. It had given him a fantastic new idea. 3. He paid for his aspirins and the rubber mat. Then he rushed home, cut the rubber mat to the right shape and size and stuck it to his plain wooden table tennis bat. The thin layer of rubber helped him put a very fast spin on the ball. When he became the English champion, everyone started copying him, putting rubber layers on their bats, and soon Mr. Goode's clever idea had completely changed the style and speed of table tennis. 4. Table tennis was first invented in about 1880. At first the game had several strange names: Gossima, Whiff Whaff and Ping Pong, It wasn't until 1926 that the International Table Tennis was formed with international championships and rules. One of the rules was that the rubber linings of the bat (Mr. Goode's invention) couldn't be more than two millimeters thick on each side. 5. Although the game was invented in England, British players don't have much chance in international champions. б) Прочитайте текст еще раз и проверьте себя, как вы доняли текст, выбрав правильный ответ, соответствующий содержания текста: 1.
