一、1. F 文章第一句提到“Many Chinese like playing ...”，后面又提到“Table tennis isn't easy to play well.”，由此可知，这里应填入“table tennis”，表示“许多中国人喜欢打乒乓球”。
2. B 前文提到“Many Chinese like playing ...”，乒乓球是一项运动，所以这里填入“sport”，表示“它也是我最喜欢的运动”。
3. A 原文提到“my school”，学校里通常会有各种社团或俱乐部，“There is a table tennis club in my school.”表示“我”的学校有一个乒乓球俱乐部。
4. C 前文提到学校有一个乒乓球俱乐部，后面又说老师告诉作者很多有关乒乓球的事情，因此作者应该是加入了这个俱乐部。
5. D “Teachers tell me many things ... table tennis.”表示老师告诉作者很多关于乒乓球的事情，“about”意为“关于”，符合语境。
6. E 前文提到作者经常和朋友打乒乓球，这里需要填入一个表示时间的短语，结合选项，“in the evening”符合，表示“我经常在晚上和朋友打乒乓球”。
二、1. The author thinks table tennis is not easy to play well because he/she needs to run fast and hit the small ball, and his/her eyes, hands, and feet are all important. 根据原文“Table tennis isn't easy to play well. I need to run fast and hit the small ball. My eyes, my hands and my feet are all important.”可知，作者认为乒乓球不容易打好是因为需要跑得快、击打小球，而且眼睛、手和脚都很重要。
2. We can learn that there is a table tennis club in the author's school. 从原文“There is a table tennis club in my school.”可知，作者的学校有一个乒乓球俱乐部。
3. The author often plays table tennis with his friends in the evening. 根据原文“I often play table tennis with my friends in the evening.”可知，作者经常在晚上和朋友打乒乓球。
4. The author wants to be a great table tennis player in the future. Because there are many world champions in China, and the author wants to be like them. 从原文“There are many world champions in China. I want to be a great table tennis player, too.”可知，作者未来想成为一名伟大的乒乓球运动员，原因是中国有很多世界冠军，作者受到他们的鼓舞，也想成为那样的人。
