A soccer referee suspended (吊销执照) for scoring a goal while taking charge of a game has resigned after being found guilty of bringing the game into disrepute by the Essex County Football Association. The Essex County Football Association said that they were disappointed by the decision of Savill, who hit the headlines last year when his sympathy for a team getting beaten 18- 1 went too far. "It is a pretty unique case and hopefully it won’t happen again," said Essex County FA chief executive Phil Sammons.
Brian Savill was taking charge of a Great Bromley Cup game in the south of England between Earls Colne Reserves and Wimpole 2000. With 10 minutes remaining and Wimple getting beaten 18- 1, Savill found the ball at his feet in front of the Earls Colne goal and immediately banged it into the net, before signaling a goal.
The laws of the game state that the referee is part of the playing area and that the game continues if the ball strikes him. There is no item in the laws to differentiate between an accidental or deliberate (故意的) touch of the ball. Savill’s bizarre (匪夷所思的) goal made little difference to the outcome as Earls Colne went on to win 20-2, but the officials were impressed. The Essex County Football Association finally found 47-year-old Savill guilty of bringing the game into disrepute and suspended him for seven weeks. Savill, a referee with 18 years’ experience, resigned after finding out about the decision. "They haven’t got a sense of humor," he told The Times newspaper. "It brought enjoyment to everyone’s lives. It shows refereeing can be enjoyable and that we are not Hitlers running blowing whistles all the time. " However, he advised other referees against following his example. [br] What is the meaning of the word "disrepute" in Paragraph 1 ?
选项
A、Disagreement.
B、Disrespect.
C、Bad fame.
D、Great enjoyment.
答案
C
解析
语义题。本题可以用构词法进行解答。disrepute由dis-这个否定前缀和repute(名誉,名声)这个词干构成,故意为“坏名声”。如果考生对repute不熟悉的话,还可以从reputation推导出所考单词的意思。另外,也可通过语境或上下文进行猜测。Savill被吊销执照的原因肯定是负面的,可排除选项D,再把剩下的三个选项放进原文进行判断,可知答案为C。
