二、阅读表达。
阅读下面短文，简略回答问题。
Cuju was the earliest form of football in the world. It started in China over 2,300 years ago during the Warring States Period. Unlike modern football, early cuju used a ball made of leather (皮) with feathers (羽毛) inside. Players had to keep the ball in the air using their feet, much like juggling (杂耍) a ball today.
During the Han Dynasty (202 BCE—220 CE), cuju became part of the army (军队) training. Soldiers played it to become stronger and work better as a team. There's an interesting story about Emperor Liu Bang. He was proud of his father because his father was very good at playing cuju!
By the Song Dynasty (960—1279 CE), cuju had become very popular. The first football club called “Yuanshe” was created. Many artists and writers made works about cuju. It's special that women usually couldn't join public activities in ancient China but they were allowed to play cuju.
Later, cuju became less popular because people started playing it just for fun instead of as a serious sport. Today, cuju is an important part of China's traditional sports.
