解析：

(1)	籃球被數(shù)以百萬(wàn)的人所喜愛(ài)。若要說(shuō)“數(shù)以百萬(wàn)的人打籃球”則用動(dòng)詞play，而不是用use或join。
(2)	由于籃球被眾多的人所喜愛(ài)，所以是“至少”100個(gè)國(guó)家，而不是用具有貶義色彩的“至多”at most。
(3)	根據(jù)前面的內(nèi)容，應(yīng)該是說(shuō)籃球是一項(xiàng)最“廣為人知”(即best-known)的運(yùn)動(dòng)。
(4)	father在這里作“創(chuàng)始人”講。
(5)	由后面的提示可知。
(6)	be worried about…擔(dān)心……，為……著急。
(7)	后文說(shuō)他們覺(jué)得該校因沒(méi)有一項(xiàng)好的冬季運(yùn)動(dòng)項(xiàng)目而人們不愿意來(lái)，故出席率低。
(10)	sports programme表示運(yùn)動(dòng)項(xiàng)目。
(11)	想出(come up with)一種新的戶內(nèi)游戲。match作“比賽”時(shí)等于game，但它沒(méi)有“游戲”的意思。
(12)	創(chuàng)造一種新的體育游戲的目的是為了改善該校冬季觀眾出席率低的問(wèn)題。所以Naismith從所有受歡迎的運(yùn)動(dòng)中去尋找共同點(diǎn)。
(13)	受歡迎的運(yùn)動(dòng)都有球，所以他的新運(yùn)動(dòng)必須也有球。
(14)	對(duì)于戶內(nèi)運(yùn)動(dòng)來(lái)說(shuō)，踢球和擊球都過(guò)于粗魯。
(15)	由第二段的末句可知。
(16)	籃球得分要靠“投擲(throw)”。
(17)	根據(jù)句意“十三條規(guī)則中有十二項(xiàng)至今仍在被使用”，其他選項(xiàng)都不可能。
(18)	其他各項(xiàng)都不合情理。
(19)	職業(yè)籃球隊(duì)“產(chǎn)生”、“組建”、“形成”。
(20)	上文是談籃球這項(xiàng)運(yùn)動(dòng)產(chǎn)生的由來(lái)。
