    • Keep your body between your opponent and the hoop with your hands up or out to the side

    Correct Answer
    A. Keep your body between your opponent and the hoop with your hands up or out to the side
    Explanation
    When defending your basket, it is important to keep your body between your opponent and the hoop. By doing so, you can prevent your opponent from having a direct path to the basket and make it more difficult for them to score. Additionally, keeping your hands up or out to the side can help you block or disrupt your opponent's shot. This defensive position allows you to maintain control and protect your basket effectively.

    • Shoot the basketball

    • Throw the basketball

    Correct Answer
    A. Shoot the basketball
    Explanation
    The given answer is "Shoot the basketball." The explanation for this is that the description provided in the question matches the technique used for shooting a basketball. The strong hand under the ball, weak hand on the side for balance, bending the knees, and pushing and following through to the wrist in a "goose-neck" position are all key elements of a proper shooting form in basketball.

    Correct Answer
    A. Practicing Hula?
    Explanation
    Practicing Hula would be considered "physical activity" because it involves movement and physical exertion.

    When playing "half court" basketball, both teams shoot into the same hoop.

    • TRUE

    • FALSE

    Correct Answer
    A. TRUE
    Explanation
    In half court basketball, both teams shoot into the same hoop. This means that there is only one hoop for both teams to score on, and they take turns shooting at it. This is different from full court basketball, where each team has their own hoop to shoot at. In half court basketball, the teams often play with fewer players and the court is smaller, which allows for a faster-paced and more intense game.

    • Respect their foul called and let them take it in from halfcourt

    • Let them have a free-throw

    Correct Answer
    A. Respect their foul called and let them take it in from halfcourt
    Explanation
    In basketball, it is important to maintain good sportsmanship and respect the decisions made by the players and referees. By respecting the foul called by someone, it shows maturity and fairness in the game. Letting them take it in from halfcourt is a way of acknowledging their call and allowing them to continue playing without any arguments or disruptions. This promotes a positive and enjoyable playing environment for everyone involved.

    Explanation
    The given answer is "Chest Pass." In a chest pass, the player holds the ball with their hands on the side of the ball, elbows out, and snaps the ball straight forward. The back of the wrists facing each other ensures a straight and accurate pass. This technique is used to quickly pass the ball to a teammate who is relatively close by.

    Explanation
    In recess and PE basketball, the game usually begins at the halfcourt circle. This is the center of the court where the jump ball takes place to start the game. The halfcourt circle is a designated area that separates the two halves of the court and is commonly used as the starting point for games. It allows for an equal opportunity for both teams to gain possession of the ball and start the game in a fair manner.

By looking up, you can make better decisions and react quickly to the game situation. Therefore, option 4, "Looking up" is the correct answer for dribbling the basketball.
