The story is that it started when two students at Cambridge University began knocking a cork(木栓) to each other across a table, using old boxes.In about the year 1800, an American businessman of sports goods produced a game that he called Indoor Tennis. The American showed no interest in it. He shipped it to London and it soon became popular in Britain. The game was then played across dining room tables, or on the floor with the net string between chairs. The players used a ball made of cork or rubber.A few years later an empty ball like the one we use today was invented. People all over the world loved it at once. A man called Mr Wood of London, had the idea of covering the bats with rubber. The London businessmen who first sold the game in England called it “ping-pong” - “ping” means the sound of the bat hitting the ball, and “pong” was the sound of the ball hitting the table.The game is played everywhere, but not everybody likes it. Some even think it is a silly game.56. Two students at Cambridge University invented the game first.57.
