Have you ever tossed a flying disc with friends on a sunny day? This simple yet exciting activity has a surprising origin—a cake tin. One day Walter Morrison and his wife were tossing around a cake tin on a beach in Los Angeles when someone offered to buy it from them. This gave them the idea to start selling cake tins as toys, dubbed Flying Cake Pan, on beaches. Morrison tried to improve the design and sketched a new version called Whirlo-Way in 1946. Soon, he got financed and eventually realized his breakthrough idea: molding the Whirlo-Way out of lightweight plastic, enabling the disc to fly further and more accurately. His invention quickly caught on, and soon afterwards millions of Americans were tossing flying discs around outdoors. Morrison later sold the rights to the toy manufacturer Wham-O. After noticing that college students were throwing around pie tins from the Frisbie Pie Company, Wham-O decided to name the disc “Frisbee.” As the Frisbee gained fans, people started inventing new sports for it. Two exciting games that emerged are Ultimate (Frisbee) and Disc golf. Ultimate (Frisbee) is a team sport that combines elements of football, basketball, and soccer. Two teams of seven players each try to score points by moving the disc down a field and catching it in their opponent’s end zone. Players can’t run with the disc, so they must throw it to teammates to advance. This fast-paced game requires skill, strategy, and fitness. Disc golf, on the other hand, is similar to regular golf but uses flying discs instead of balls and clubs. Players throw their discs from a teeing area, aiming for a metal basket that serves as the hole. Players use various throwing styles, depending on their distance from the hole. The objective of disc golf is the same as golf: to complete the course in as few throws as possible. From the thrill of competition to the joy of a casual throw, flying discs have a unique way of evoking a sense of fun that keeps us reaching into the sky over and over again.

思路引導 VIP
請回想文章中關於 Ultimate 的描述，當作者提到這是一項結合了足球與籃球、且節奏非常快速（fast-paced）的運動時，這暗示了參與者必須具備什麼樣的身體狀態？此外，試著在文中找找看，這項運動的『得分方式』與文中提到的另一種運動有什麼不同？

Ultimate 的核心特質與體能需求
文中提到 Ultimate（極限飛盤）是一項結合了美式足球、籃球與足球的團體運動。作者明確指出這是一個「節奏快」（fast-paced）且「需要技巧、策略與體能（fitness）」的遊戲。因此，選項 (A) 提到需要高度體能（high physical fitness level）完全符合文中「requires fitness」的描述。這不僅是字面上的對應，也是根據運動性質所做的合理推論。
