There’s no doubt that football is the global sport. Though basketball, tennis, and other sports are popular too, nothing comes close to football. Being played in every country in the world, football provides dozens of superstars. The numbers are greater when compared to any other sport, and this drives the popularity of football up. Have you ever wondered when the sport started and became popular
Football has its origin (起源) in China and has a history of more than 2,000 years. However, modern football originally appeared in Britain in the 19th century. Folk football matches had been played before in many cities and towns, but never on a professional level.
Football became a winter sport game played in different schools. The rules were carried out by each school, and this made it difficult for players to play an official game with each other. It all changed in 1848 at the University of Cambridge that formulated a set of standard rules known as the Cambridge rules of football. From that moment, a new star sport was born.
By the early 20th century, football had spread all across Europe. In 1904, FIFA was set up. There are seven original members, including France, Denmark and Spain. FIFA became the governing body for many associations in Europe.
England’s international success improved the popularity of the sport in the country. The Premier League in England was set up in 1992. From the 1990s, it became a truly impressive piece of football organization, becoming the world’s top football league in the process.
Football is obviously the most popular sport in the world. It is impossible for any other sport to take its place, especially with leagues spending billions of pounds every year to stay in the focus.

What’s the meaning of “dark horse” It’s someone who wins when no one expects it.
Han Xiaopeng took China’s first gold on snow. He became an Olympic “dark horse” in 2006 by winning the gold medal in men’s freestyle aerial skiing (自由式滑雪空中技巧) at Turin in Italy. He made two almost perfect jumps for the highest score. Han had never won a world gold medal before, let alone (更不用说) in the Olympics!
“I never thought this would happen,” said the 23-year-old. “I feel like I’m in a dream.” It’s China’s second gold medal at the Turin Olympics. But more important, Han’s gold was the country’s first ever in a snow sport. In 2002, China’s Yang Yang won the gold for speed skating at the Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, US.
Just because Han’s win was unexpected doesn’t mean that he didn’t work hard.
Han grew up in Jiangsu Province. Before he started his training on snow, he used to be an acrobat (杂技演员) at a circus. In 1995, a coach found his talent (才能). The coach, Yang Er’qi, said Han had the agility (灵活性) and courage to be a ski jumper. When Yang first took the 12-year-old to northern China, the boy couldn’t swim, skate or ski. But he wasn’t afraid of the high platform (跳台) and kept on training.
Han almost left the sport after hurting his knee months before the Salt Lake Games. In that Olympics he only got 24th. “I was hopeless at that time, but my family and the coach stood firmly (坚定地) behind me, helping me through,” he recalled. Han Xiaopeng worked so hard that he won the gold medal in the Olympics at last. Because of his success, more and more people in China are becoming interested in skiing. We are proud of him and we hope he will have another big success in the next Winter Olympics.

The Winter Olympic Games are an international sports event that takes place every four years. Here are some winter sports.
Curling (冰壶) 　　Each player on two teams slides (滑动) round stones across the ice towards a target (目标). Curling is a team sport with four players on each side. A game ends when a team has finished throwing all their stones. The team who manages to throw their stones closest to the target will win the game. Curling has been played at the Olympics since 1998.
Freestyle Skiing 　　Freestyle Skiing is a winter sport in which players will show different kinds of moves while sliding down the snowy ground on skis. It’s a sport that requires both skills and courage and has become more popular in recent years. It has been shown at the Olympics since 1992.
Bobsleigh (雪车) 　　It was invented by the Swiss in the late 1860s. Two or four competitors jump into a snow sled (雪橇) and race down an ice road against the other teams. The team who first reaches the finish line is the winner. Bobsleigh has been an Olympic event since the first Winter Olympics in France in 1924 (except 1960).

The newspapers and TV sent pictures around the world. 21 Their next step was sending beautiful dragon boats to cities in North America and Europe.

In 1991, people founded (建立) the International Dragon Boat Federation. 22 And more and more people around the world began to enjoy it.

At the 2007 Asian Winter Games in Changchun, Jilin Province, 17-year-old Xu Mengtao won a silver medal in freestyle skiing women’s aerials (空中技巧). Eighteen years later, at the 2025 Games in Harbin, she turned that into gold and became China’s first snow sports grand slam (大满贯) winner.
“For a sportswoman who competes in aerials, it is tough to stay at the top of their game at this age,” Xu told China Daily.
Xu was born in 1990. She started freestyle skiing at 12. Her journey to the top wasn’t easy. At the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, Canada, she finished sixth. But that only made her work harder. She won a silver medal at the 2014 Sochi Olympics.
In 2016, she hurt her knee badly. Doctors took out nearly 70 percent of the cartilage (半月板) in her left knee. “There were some moments when I thought about giving up,” Xu told CCTV News. “I already had a silver medal. Wasn’t that enough ” However, her love for skiing kept her going. After a difficult time of getting medical treatment, Xu returned to the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics in South Korea but only finished in ninth place.
After many injuries and challenges, she completed the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics with steel pins (钢钉) in her body and won her Olympic gold.

Just think about it: How long is 46 seconds 27 And it might take you that long to lace up your shoes. But on August 4, swimmer Pan Zhanle swam 100 meters in 45.92 seconds, and his team became the first non-American team to win the Olympic men’s 4×100m relay in more than 40 years. That was just one of China’s many breakthrough moments from this summer’s Olympics. Three days earlier, Pan shocked the world in the men’s 100m freestyle. Like a flying fish, he touched the wall in 46.40 seconds. 28
One thing that struck me was how young these champions are. 29
The gold medalists certainly got the most attention. 30 One of them is skater Cui Chenxi. In the women’s skateboarding street final, the 13-year-old finished fourth. It was China’s best result so far in this Olympic event.
Naturally, while some cried tears of joy, others shed tears of regret. Swimmer Zhang Yufei returned home with one silver and five bronze medals but no gold. The 26-year-old isn’t sure about her chances for the 2028 Games. All athletes want gold medals, but like Zhang said in an interview, “It’s a competitive world. 31 ”
A．Some athletes, however, made history even without winning medals.
B．You can’t always get what you want, even if you’ve done your best.

F．A computer might take 46 seconds to start up.
A character in one of Shakespeare’s plays once said, “Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.” Any of these could apply to the modern day sportsmen. Many still argue about the nature of their talent. Some say that people are born to be sportsmen, while others say it is only through hard work that they achieve their abilities. Regardless of the opinions, true greatness for them is only realized when their talents are acknowledged (承认) by the public.
With this acknowledgement of their “greatness” come money, power, influence and responsibility. For better or for worse, like it or hate it, modern sportsmen are the role models of children worldwide. These children will grow up admiring their heroes, copying their every move, and wanting to be like them. With the influence of the media, this becomes even more common. So it is more important than ever for these sportsmen to recognize their responsibility.
In the past few months, there have been many examples of questionable behaviors from sports stars. Present-day sports stars often mirror the less admirable aspects of society, which is often quickly pointed out by the self-righteous (自以为是的) media. It would be wrong for us to expect sportsmen to be perfect. It would also be wrong for us to think that their behavior is greatly worse than the sportsmen in the past. But with the all-seeing eye of modern media, it is a different world. So different standards must be expected.
Of course there is no duty for sportsmen to be good role models. It’s totally their choice whether they consider their behavior appropriate (恰当的), as long as it complies with (遵守) the law. Furthermore, measuring the true influence their decisions have on their followers is absolutely impossible. Some will rise against their idols, seeing them in a new light and criticizing their actions. Others may copy their heroes’ actions, using them as a shield (挡箭牌) when making the same mistakes.
It is certain that the actions of sportsmen will influence the lives of those who admire them. Present-day sportsmen are like role models in today’s world, and their actions are watched carefully by millions over the world. Some may complain against it, denying (否认) their influence on these children’s lives. Others may realize it but not respect it, while many may both realize it and respect it. In a word, you do not choose whether you are a role model. All you can do is to decide how to act when greatness is thrust upon you.
32．In Paragraph 1, the author tries to stress ________.
A．sportsmen achieve success and greatness through their efforts
B．there are two ways for people to achieve success and greatness
C．the important qualities for the sportsmen to become great nowadays
D．sportsmen become great when their gifts are recognized by people
33．Which of the following statements is true according to the passage
A．Most fans copy their heroes’ wrong actions when they don’t realize it.
B．Sportsmen are self-righteous because the media makes them famous.
C．The media sometimes overstresses the misbehavior of the sportsmen.
D．Sportsmen have the right to behave as they wish when facing their fans.
34．The underlined phrase “thrust upon” most probably means ________.
A．pulled off B．forced on C．related to D．removed from
35．What is the main purpose of the passage
A．To remind the sportsmen of their social responsibilities.
B．To advise the media to choose proper sport events to report
C．To argue that sportsmen should be respected more as heroes.
D．To inform the public that sportsmen are not suitable role models.
I never thought I would be a “runner”. I was the girl who ran slowest in the PE class. A few years ago, I was walking with a group of friends in the 5 km Race for the Cancer Treatment. This race helps to raise money for fighting cancer. As we walked, I noticed a lady.
She was one of the weakest-looking women I’ve ever seen. She must have been close to seventy years old, wearing a T-shirt with the word “Survivor (幸存者) ”. She seemed so weak that it looked like a strong wind could easily turn her over. But, she was running. And she was passing by me and my group of friends. She ran slowly, but actively—it felt like each step helped her move away from cancer. Right at that moment, I made up my mind to join the next Race for the Cancer Treatment. I’d run along with her.
A week later, I found myself in the gym, running on the treadmill (跑步机) . Three minutes after I started, my face was bright red. My heart was beating rapidly. I had to slow down to a walk. I thought of the woman at the race. I kept it up. I was able to go a little longer each time. Three and a half minutes. Four minutes. Five. . .
A year later, I was again at the Race for the Cancer Treatment, but this time, I stood with the runners. When the race started, the other runners passed by me. I ran forward. I wondered if I’d be able to do it. But then, I remembered the brave woman. I ran as fast as I could until I finally crossed that finish line. I just completed my first race! I looked down at my legs, amazed. They had done something I’d never thought possible. I had never felt stronger than at that moment.

Breakdancing, also known as breaking or simply “B-boying”or “B-girling”, is a style of street dance that originated in the 1970s among African American and Puerto Rican communities in New York City.
Richard “Crazy Legs” Colon is one of the crazy fans of this dance style. He came to know breaking (霹雳舞) as a kid. 56 If you told him 44 years before that one day breaking would become an Olympic sport, he wouldn’t believe it at all.
However, it has come true. Breakdancing was recognized by the International Olympic Committee in 2020, indicating its growing acceptance as a sport. 57 Chinese athlete Chen Qingquan won a silver medal in breaking. The Olympics, of course, has brought more attention to breaking and brought its top dancers more chances.
Before the Olympics, most people were excited about the good news. However, some people also expressed their big worry. 58 They thought that Olympic judges (裁判) might just pay attention to the difficulty of the dance moves, instead of the dancers’ passion (激情) and creativity.
“ 59 ” Richard said. “The passion and the pain both go along with your fight for life—they make the soul (灵魂) of the dance. We want to make sure that the soul isn’t changed.”
For young breakers, the breaking in the Olympics means a new chance. “I think it’s amazing news.” said Jeremy, a breaker in Alaska. “ 60 ”
In conclusion, breakdancing becoming an Olympic sport has brought many changes, touching on cultural, economic, and social aspects, providing a great boost to the global breakdancing group.
A．It’s not just about the dance moves.
B．It means breaking will be seen by more people.
C．He’s created many famous breaking dance moves.
D．It attracted many passers-by to stop and watch the skills.
E．They’re afraid that the culture of breaking may get changed.
F．Then breaking appeared in the 2024 Summer Olympic Games in Paris.
For almost 100 years, the Winter Olympics has been a celebration of ice and snow sports around the world. It is a special event that only takes place once every four years.
Although the Winter Olympics started with just five sports across nine disciplines (分项) in France in 1924, it has grown to include seven sports across 15 different disciplines and has been hosted in 12 countries across three continents (洲). In 2022, for the first time ever in the games’ history, Beijing will become the first city to host both the Summer and Winter Olympics.

China’s love for winter sports has been growing. The Ministry of Education has set a goal of building 5,000 special schools by 2025 to improve winter sports education. The government has also been encouraging primary and secondary schools to add winter sports to their courses. Many provinces and cities have already acted on this suggestion. Classes will be set up in schools in northern China to boost interest in winter sports. In southern China, schools can partner with icerinks (溜冰场) and winter sports clubs.

There are many games in which two teams compete to get control of a ball and shoot it into the other net to score a goal. Among them, one is played in the Summer Olympic Games, and its name is “hockey”.
The first sport we know like hockey was played in Egypt over 4,000 years ago. There were no records of the modern game until its appearance in English schools in the 18th century, and the first hockey club was formed in 1849 in London. During this time the game became popular among British soldiers, and they introduced it to many other countries. To this day, hockey is popular around the world.
In the hockey match, players use sticks to hit, push and pass a small, hard ball. Each team has up to 16 players, of which 11 can be on the pitch (赛场) at one time. These include a goalkeeper plus 10 field players. Field players must not use any body part to control the ball. Only goalkeepers can use their hands and feet to block (阻截) or hit the ball.
A hockey match usually lasts 70 minutes, with two 35-minute halves. The team with the most goals is the winner. Games can end in a draw, but if a winner must be found, such as in the World Cup or at the Olympics, a tied match will go into extra time, which is similar to some soccer games.
The most important competitions for hockey are the Olympic Games, the Hockey World Cup, and the Commonwealth Games. All of these competitions are held once every four years. The biggest of hockey’s yearly competitions is the Sultan Azlan Shah Hockey Tournament. It’s been held in Malaysia every year and teams from all over the world come to take part in it.

①The Paris Olympics have come to an end. China has won forty gold medals just as many as the USA．During the Olympics, we enjoyed one exciting competition after another.
②Do you know about pole vaulting (撑杆跳高) Have you ever seen a pole vaulter jump high into the air It’s amazing how a thin pole can hold up a person and help them jump over a bar that is so high! This special pole is not just any stick: it is made with smart designs and strong materials. With the right kind of pole, a pole vaulter can bend (弯曲) it and then spring (弹) back up, allowing them to reach great heights.
③Let’s dive into the exciting world of pole vaulting and learn how these poles help athletes achieve their dreams!
④Pole vaulting started a long time ago in ancient Greece (古希腊). People used long poles to jump over things. The first competition was around 1829 BC (公元前) in Ireland (爱尔兰), where people jumped over small streams with sticks.
⑤___▲___. In 1896, William Hoyt from America jumped 3.30 meters with a heavy wooden pole. Later, they used bamboo poles from Japan. In 1942, Warmerdam from America set a record by jumping 4.77 meters with a bamboo pole. By 1948, they made poles from fiberglass (玻璃纤维), which is lighter and bends better. These poles are often called “glass steel”; they are made from glass and plastic. Today, many poles are made from carbon fiber (碳纤维), which is even lighter and stronger than fiberglass. Modern carbon fiber poles have three layers (层): the outside is strong carbon fiber, the middle is woven carbon fiber, and the inside is fiberglass. These poles can bend a lot when athletes run fast, but they still support the athlete’s weight, helping them jump over the bar.
⑥With better technology and materials, pole vaulting has become a sport where athletes keep trying to jump higher. Every jump shows how clever and hardworking people can be. Looking forward to the next Olympic Games, who knows how high the next pole vaulters will go The sky is the limit (极限)!

The Olympic flame (火焰) has been put out, bringing down the curtain (帷幕) on the 2022 Winter Olympics in Beijing. But passion lingers (继续存留) for a sporting event that has inspired the world during the pandemic, said Xinhua.
International Olympic Committee (IOC) President Thomas Bach called the Games “truly exceptional” in his closing ceremony speech at the National Stadium. “The Olympic spirit could only shine so brightly because the Chinese people set the stage in such an excellent way and in a safe way,” he said.
At Beijing 2022, over 2,800 athletes (运动员) from 91 countries and regions competed for 109 gold medals. Through 17 days of outstanding performances on the ice and snow, many Olympic records, including two world records, were broken. “This is a real example of the Olympic motto(口号): Faster, Higher, Stronger, Together,” said Cai Qi, president of the Beijing organizing committee.
As the first city to ever host both the Summer and Winter Olympics, Beijing provided thoughtful services to all the participants (参与者).
Beijing 2022 was the first international multi-sport event to be held on schedule during the COVID-19 pandemic. Athletes were kept safe within a closed loop (闭环), preventing any imported cases (输入性病例) from spreading to the outside public. “With an infection rate (感染率) of 0.01, it was one of the safest places on the planet, if not the safest place on the planet, and this is a great achievement,” said Bach.
The popularity of ice and snow sports is growing around China. The country has achieved its goal to engage 300 million people in winter sports. Winter sports facilities (设施) have even spread to the southern parts of China where winters are warmer. For example, an indoor ski resort (滑雪场) opened in Guangzhou. The Sunac Snow Park is as large as 22 soccer fields and has received more than 2 million visitors since it opened in 2019, reported Xinhua.

Fan Zhendong’s table tennis path is filled with many glorious moments. He won the championship at the Men’s Table Tennis World Cup in 2016. At the 2021 World Table Tennis Championships in Houston, he won the men’s singles championship.
