问题    被当做全国性娱乐活动的某一项体育运动可以反映一个民族的特性。在美国,人们喜爱的三项运动是美式足球、棒球和高尔夫球。美式足球,又称橄榄球,是美国人民最喜爱的运动。日前,它已取代了棒球的地位。橄榄球赛主要与对手争夺比赛场地有关。许多比赛的术语都采用军事用语。因此,在某种程度上,一场橄榄球赛也是一次军事行动。比赛的激烈争夺场面吸引了大批观众。
   棒球比赛的运动量没有橄榄球大,进攻性也没有那么强。但是它是一种技巧性比赛。比赛场面没有橄榄球那么人心激动。
   高尔夫球是一种只有亲自参加才能欣赏其乐趣的运动,它通常被认为是上层人士玩乐的运动。高尔夫是一种徒步性比赛,球赛要求不断改变位置。

选项

答案 A sport that is considered a national pastime can be expected to reflect the nation’s character. In America, the three games that the American people like are American football, baseball and golf. American football, also called rugby, is now America’s favorite sport, having replaced baseball. American football is passionately concerned with the gain and loss of land. Many of the special terms used in the game came from military usage. So, to some extent, American football can be called a military mission. The exciting scenes of competition attract a lot of people. Baseball requires less action and movement of the participants than American football. The game is also less aggressive. But baseball is a game of craftiness. The contest in baseball is not as exciting as in American football. Golf has to be played to be appreciated. Usually golf is regarded as a game played by upper-class people. Golf is a journey sport with the players constantly changing their positions in the field.
