Read the following passage and mark the letter A, B, C or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct<br />
answer to each of the questions from 29 to 36.<br />
Baseball has been dubbed “ America’s favorite sport”, and many fans contend that there is no greater<br />
thrill than watching a good pitcher throw the ball skillfully in a series of expertly delivered “fast” and “curve”<br />
balls. Two such pitches, the “rising fastball” and the “breaking curveball” are particularly exasperating to<br />
batters because these balls tend to veer in one direction or the other just as they reach home plate. The “rising<br />
fastball” zooms forward only to jump up and over the bat as batter swings. The “breaking curveball” curves<br />
toward home plate, but plunges downward unexpectedly at the last moment. Batters attempt to anticipate these<br />
pitches, and respond accordingly, while pitchers work at perfecting their “fast” and “curve” ball deliveries.<br />
But according to studies conducted by a team of engineers and psychologists, the “rising fastball” and<br />
“breaking curveball” do not actually exist, they are merely optical illusions. The studies revealed that batters<br />
preceive the ball as approaching more slowly or falling more quickly than it actually is, and it is this<br />
misperception that produces the visual illusion. Batters tend to have difficulty tracking a ball continuously as<br />
it approaches and will briefly divert their to the spot where they think the ball will cross the plate. When<br />
abatter has misjudged the speed or angle of a pitch, and shifts his or her gaze in this way, the ball will appear<br />
to suddenly rise or dip and the batter will often miss.<br />
How will this finding affect “ American favorite pastime”? No doubt some will vehemently reject the<br />
notion that the “ rising fastball” and the “breaking curveball” are mere illusions. But for others, the findings<br />
may imbue the game with a new level of intrigue as batters attempt to respond to pitches that don’t exist.<br />
Question29: Which of the following words could best replace the word “ thrill” in the first paragraph?<br />
