I am always amazed when I hear people saying that sport creates goodwill between the nations, and that if only the common peoples of the world could meet one another at football or cricket, they would have no inclination to meet on the battlefield. Even if one didn’t know from e0nerete examples (the 1936 Olympic Games, for instance) that international sporting contests lead to hatred, one could deduce if from general principles.
Nearly all the sports nowadays are competitive. You play to win, and the game has little meaning unless you do your utmost to win. On the village green, where you pick up sides and no feeling of local patriotism is involved, it is possible to play simply for the fun and exercise, but as soon as the question of prestige arises, as soon as you feel that you and some larger unit will be disgraced if you lose, the most savage combative instincts are aroused. Any one who has played even in a school football match knows this. At the international level, sport is frankly mimic warfare. But the significant thing is not the behavior of the players but the attitude of the spectators: and, behind the spectators, of the nations who work themselves into furies over these absurd contests, and seriously believe—at any rate for shore periods—that running, jumping and kicking a ball are tests of national virtue.
选项
A、Behavior of the players.
B、The attitude of the spectators.
C、The attitude of the players.
D、The number of medals
答案
B
解析
[听力原文]
What is the significant thing for a sport at an international level?
[听前预测] 选项均由名词短语构成。结合上一题的选项推测本题可能就有关sport的作用和目的的问题提问。
[答案详解] 事实细节题[考频:63]。短文中表示转折,让步、原因等的标识性的词汇往往是考查的重点。本题关键句为“the significant thing is not the behavior of the players but the attitude of the spectators.”重要的不是运动员的表现,而是观众的表现。故B)为正确答案。
