Question

A hundred years ago, the game we now call football did not exit（存在). American football started during a game between two colleges(学院). The teams had gotten together to play what they called "football", but each team played by different rules（规则). One team played what we now call soccer. The other played what we now call rugby(橄榄球).

Both games had been invented a thousand years before. In the first kind of football game ever played, all the men from one village tried to kick a ball into another village. The men of the second village tried to kick the ball into the first. Hundreds of people joined in, running everywhere, ruining(毁坏)crops and knocking down fences(篱笆). In time , people agreed on some rules to keep order, but many rules were left open to change. Different rules developed in different places.
