2) Прочитайте рассказ. Подберите к каждому из предложений А-Е одно верное утверждение из списка четырёх вариантов (1, 2, 3 или 4). A New Basketball Star Jason had never been particularly interested in basketball. Sure, he'd seen his dad, once a local high school star, glide across the court in countless old videos, his signature style combined grace and power that had earned him a place in the town's hall of fame. But to Jason, those videos felt like a distant echo a legacy he never wanted to chase. Instead, he preferred to lose himself in the world of video games, where he could be a hero without hearing the meaningful whispers of expectations that seemed to follow him everywhere. It was a regular Friday PE lesson when Mr. Carter, the gym teacher, decided to mix things up. Instead of the usual routine, he announced a small basketball tournament. Jason stood in the corner, nervously watching the others who formed teams. Though he clearly remembered practicing ring throwing with his father, it felt like a duty rather than a hobby. But as he watched his classmates laugh and cheer on their friends, Jason felt an unexpected rush of adrenaline. He stepped forward, ignoring the knots in his stomach, and found himself asking to join the nearest team. As the game progressed, Jason discovered a rhythm he never knew he had. With every dribble and shot, he felt his self-doubt weaken. His father's old moves appeared in his memory, helping him play with surprising ease. To his astonishment, he found himself scoring three-pointers, and his classmates were cheering him on. At that moment of fleeting fame, he understood that the court was more than just a place to score points; it was where he could reveal a part of himself that he didn't even know existed. By the end of the day, Jason was riding high on the waves of newfound confidence. As the final whistle blew, the team had claimed victory. But more important was the realization that he had stepped out of his father's shadow and made a name for himself, at least for one afternoon. Inspired by the sense of belonging and achievement, he signed up for the school basketball team that trained very week, and was ready to make his own way. A. Before the PE lesson Jason 1) was very enthusiastic and eager to play basketball. 2) had a deep passion for the sport. 3) was a well-known basketball player at his school. 4) had little interest in basketball and preferred video games. B. Mr. Carter was 1) Jason's father, a basketball star. 2) the school principal. 3) the PE teacher who organized the basketball tournament. 4) a famous basketball coach.
