    Are Sports Important?

    Sports are all around us．We watch and read sports news．There are also sports clubs，and even sports—only channels（频道）on TV．In many countries，players make millions of dollars every year．

    But why are sports so important? They're only games，right?

    Our readers answer：

    Vlad（Ukraine乌克兰）

    Sports bring people together．In 2006，our team was able to play in the 2006 World Cup for the first time．Everyone was happy．Rich and poor，old and young，men and women—everyone was in the streets together!

    Mike（USA）

    Sports bring people together，but they divide them，too．Fans of different teams fight all the time—they shout and hit each other．And here's another example：My brother plays high school baseball．Last week，his team played an important game．At the game，two parents fought about a call．Come on… baseball is only a game! Sports are so competitive（有竞争力的）these days．It's all about winning．Then the game isn't fun．

    Oba（South Africa）

    Right now，some of the world's best soccer players are from African countries，and the 2010 World Cup games will be in South Africa．Yes，some players make a lot of money—may be too much．But sporting events（like the World Cup）bring tourists and money to countries and people．And that is good for Africa．

    1．What does Mike think of a game when players and fans only think about winning?

    A．It's important．                                        B．It's exciting．

    C．It's not fun．                                             D．It's not necessary．

    2．Why are sports important for Oba?

    A．Because sports are competitive these days．

    B．Because sports can make money for a country．

    C．Because sports can make players rich every year．

    D．Because sports can make people happy．

    3．What does the underlined word “call” mean?

    A．Decision．           B．Telephone．            C．Suggestion．          D．Seat．

    4．What is the main idea of this passage?

    A．Sports are popular all over the world．

    B．Sports divide people from different countries．

    C．People have different opinions about sports．

    D．Sports bring tourists and money to Africa．

    Many people think sports are just for winning and honor, but there is a lot more you can gain from (get out of) them. I have learned over the past years that sometimes when I lose, I get a lot more out of it than winning. Also, I find a lot of times in sports, people are getting too caught up in the game instead of just having fun. The real purpose of sports is to have fun and learn life lessons along the way.
    I greatly encourage you to be a part of the school sports. Even if you are not the best, you can still have fun. Sports give people a great and healthy way of spending an afternoon, instead of lying around playing video games or even getting into bad things. Sports also give us a sense of achievement. There isn’t a better feeling than to have done something fun and productive for my day.
    I think that we all need sports to give us courage. If we try hard in sports, we usually do well. If we did the same in study, we would all be champions. Another reason why I encourage you to play sports is that it’s just fun. Without sports, our lives would just be boring. So as you may be able to tell, sports are amazing!
    Our coaches not only teach us to play sports, but show class and good sportsmanship while playing them. It’s never fun when you lose to have the competitor rub it in your face. That’s why our coaches teach us to show class when we lose; also, when coaches get onto you, don’t get down. They only want to see you improve and learn from what they say. When you do badly and they don’t shout loudly is when you should start worrying because they are giving up on you.
    Overall, sports are great! They bring out the best and worst of a lot of us. However, we can’ t let sports get too serious to where it brings down all the fun. So to have the most fun in sports, you just need try your best and not worry so much about the winning or losing.
    【小题1】The underlined phrase “get onto you” in Paragraph 4 probably means ________.
    A．point out your mistakesB．take up your time
    C．worry about your future D．look into your privacy
    【小题2】Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?
    A．Sports bring us great fun only if we have the talent.
    B．Sports give us the best way of spending free time.
    C．We can get more out of winning than losing.
    D．We should take pleasure in doing sports.
    【小题3】What is the best title of this passage?
    A．Are we too caught up?B．To win or to gain?
    C．Are sports really great?D．For honor or for health?
