 Unit 3 On the move

中国传统体育有着丰富的内容、悠久的历史,是人类体育文化的杰出代表之一。现 在让我们一起了解足球的鼻祖“蹴鞠”。

Cuju (Ball-kicking)

“Cu” means to kick, and “Ju” is a kind of ball in ancient China, made of leather and filled with hair.

It is said this game was found in Huangdi times of four thousand years ago. The purpose of Cuju then was to

train soldiers and select qualified people in the army. Ball-kicking activity that is actually recorded in history emerged in the Warring States Period. When it came to the Han Dynasty, Cuju activity had been more and more thriving. Either the emperor or the ordinary people, they loved it very much. During the period of Eastern and Western Han Dynasties, Cuju was popular not only in the palace, in the army, but also among the crowd. People were encouraged to kick ball in the back streets and lanes. It is obvious that at that time Cuju had rooted in the hearts of the people.

The development of Cuju went into an important stage in the Tang Dynasty. A variety of skills were invented then on the basis of the former games. A goal, for instance, was set in the middle of the court, the players of the two teams just kicked the ball into the goal, and the one which scored more goals was the winner.

Cuju entered its golden age in the Song Dynasty. First, it was much more

standardized and enjoyable. Second, Qiyun Association was founded which is similar to the FIFA now. Third, the imperial court attached great importance to it. It is recorded in history that quite a few emperors in the Song Dynasty such as Song Taizu, Song Taizong, etc. loved Cuju.

【注】 ①qualified adj. 合格的 ②emerge v. 出现 ③thrive v. 茁壮成长;繁荣兴旺 ④attach great importance to 非常重视

【立德树人】 中国传统体育在世界文化史上留下了光辉灿烂的一页 (leave behind a magnificent page)。它是建立在自然经济、宗法血缘社会和民族精神生活与哲学基础之上的。让我们共同传承中国传统体育文化!

Period Ⅰ Starting out & Understanding ideas

课前自学导引

- 1 -

一项风靡全世界的运动

如今,足球是世界上最受欢迎的运动之一。鉴于尼尔·阿姆斯特朗想把足球带到月球上,我们甚至可以说它也是这个世界以外最受欢迎的运动!这项运动的历史可以追溯到两千多年前的古代中国。当时它被称为“蹴鞠”(踢球),这项运动使用的球是由动物的皮制成的,里面填充的是动物毛发。球门被悬在空中。我们今天所知道的足球运动起源于英国,在那里这项运动被赋予了新的规则。

足球是一项如此简单的运动,这也许是它受欢迎的基础。它也是一项非常便宜的运动。你不需要昂贵的设备,即使是球也不需要花很多钱。在世界各地,你都能看到孩子们心满意足地玩着一个用塑料袋做成的球;就像贝利小时候踢球那样。

足球在全球流行背后的另一个因素是足球场上的创造力和激情。它很有趣,足以吸引数以百万计的人。你不必成为球迷就可以欣赏到职业球员的技术——看到他们如何利用身体来传球、得分和防守,你会感到惊讶——看到比赛以一个惊人的转折结束,你会感到兴奋。

更重要的是,足球已经成为人们交流的最佳方式之一:它不需要言语,但每个人都能理解。它打破了壁垒,把赛场内外的人们聚集在一起。以著名的1914年圣诞节足球比赛为例。第一次世界大战几个月前爆发了,但英国和德国士兵放下枪,一起踢足球——在战争岁月,这是一个值得纪念的和平时刻。

“有些人认为足球是一个生死攸关的问题,……”著名足球运动员和教练比尔·香克利说。我可以向你保证,这比生死更重要。这听起来可能很有趣,但人们只需想到地球就可以意识到我们的星球是足球形状的。

My First Marathon (马拉松)

A month before my first marathon, one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks, leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet, I was determined to go ahead.

I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first PE class, the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball. I didn't do either well. He later informed me that I was “not athletic”.

The idea that I was “not athletic” stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s, I realized running was a battle against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the battle against my own body and mind. A test of wills!

The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldn't even find the finish line. I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself.

Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe laces (鞋带) became untied. So I stopped to readjust. Not the start I wanted!

At mile 3, I passed a sign: “GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!”

By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly. Despite the pain, I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.

By mile 21, I was starving!

As I approached mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 am or questioned my expenses on running.

I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.

- 14 -

Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels (世俗标签), I can now call myself a “marathon winner”.

篇章导读:本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。参加马拉松比赛前的一个月,作者的脚踝受伤了,但他仍决定参加比赛。在比赛中尽管脚踝伤处疼痛难忍,但作者坚持跑完全程,获得了一枚奖章。作者通过自身的经历启迪人们:要做自己,并坚持不断前进,不要受限于世俗标签,就会取得成功。

Nine out of ten parents want their children to take part in competitions in school, a survey found.

Despite the current trend of few or no competitions in many schools—they worry that they place kids under too much pressure or cause some damage to their bodies—most parents believe competitions help to prepare children for adulthood. They also believe competitions make children more ambitious (志向远大的) and ready for work.

And 84 percent of parents worry their children will feel regretful once they leave school because they have little or no experience of competitions. More than two thirds think competitions teach children that they have to work for things, while 69 percent think they help kids realize they don't always win or come out on top of everything.

One in three parents also believe competitions raise standards in education as children strive (努力) to win. One in five parents don't think that their children's schools offer enough opportunities to their children to compete against others, and one in ten even say the schools don't allow children to win or lose at all.

As a result, 24 percent of parents have complained to their children's schools as they don't feel that enough emphasis is put on competitions. Nine out of ten teachers agree that it is important for children to experience losing at an early age.

Former World Cup rugby star Will Greenwood said, “Competitions make you strive to be better as an individual and as part of a team. In any walk of life, experiencing success as an individual is a great motivator and helps to breed a culture that strives to succeed, whether in education or employment.”

Chairwoman Carole Stott said, “Many schools have, in recent years, moved their emphasis for children away from winning and losing to simply taking part.”

篇章导读:本文是一篇说明文,介绍了一项调查显示大部分家长希望孩子们在学校能多参加竞赛。

5.Why do many schools offer few or no competitions to their students? A.To keep the students safe. B.To reduce families' expenses. C.To reduce the teachers' pressure.

D.To make sure that the students have enough time to study.

答案:A 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“they worry that they place kids under too much pressure or cause some damage to their bodies”可知,许多学校不安排或少安排竞赛的原因是他们担心竞赛给学生们带来压力,同时还有可能给学生们的身体带来伤害。

6.Most parents don't think taking part in competitions will help kids ________.

- 16 -

A.prepare themselves well for their future work B.know that they don't need to win all the time C.gain the experience of competitions D.enjoy their school life

答案:D 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“make children more ambitious (志向远大的) and ready for work”以及第三段中的“they help kids realize they don't always win”和“children will feel regretful once they leave school because they have little or no experience of competitions”可知,A、B、C三项是孩子们参加竞赛的好处,D项所给信息在文中没有对应信息。

7.What can be used as the best title of the passage? A.The benefits of taking part in competitions B.Parents want their children to compete at school C.Most schools offer more competitions to students D.Should students take part in competitions in school?

答案:B 标题判断题。根据文章中所列出的一系列的调查结果可总结出,大部分家长希望孩子们在学校能多参加竞赛,并结合文章主旨句——第一段可知B项作为文章标题最佳。

8.What is Will Greenwood's attitude towards kids' taking part in more competitions?

A.Doubtful. C.Supportive.

B.Worried. D.Uncertain.

答案:C 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中Will Greenwood所讲的“experiencing success as an individual is a great motivator and helps to breed a culture that strives to succeed”可知,他认为参加竞赛并体验输赢对孩子们是有很大帮助的,由此可推断出他支持学生们多参加竞赛。
