Some people argue that the pressure on international sportsmen and sportswomen kills the essence of sport -- the pursuit of personal excellence. Children kick a football around for fun. When they get older and play for local school teams, they become competitive but they still enjoy playing. The individual representing his country cannot afford to think about enjoying himself. He has to think only about winning. He is responsible for an entire nation’s hopes, dreams and reputation.
A good example is the football World Cup. Football is the world’s most important sport. Winning the World Cup is perhaps the summit of international sporting success. Mention "Brazil" to someone and the chances are that he’ll think of football. In a sense, winning the World Cup "put Brazil on the map".
Sports fans and supporters get quite irrational about the World Cup. People in England felt that their country was somehow important after they won in 1966. Last year thousands of Scots sold their cars, and even their houses, and spent all their money traveling to Brazil, who won the cup.
选项
A、To prove that football is the world’s most important sport.
B、To show that Brazil is better than all others.
C、To compare Scotland with Brazil.
D、To explain the essence of sport.
答案
D
解析
主旨题。文章第一句就提出了主题 the essence of sport“运动的精髓”,后来又提到的 Sports fans and supporters get quite irrational“不理性的”about the World Cup也说明说话人不赞成人们过于在意比赛的输赢,因为那不是运动的精髓。
