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 entire nation’s hopes, dreams and reputation.
A good example is the football World Cup. Football is the third world’s most important sport. Winning the World Cup is perhaps the summit of international sporting success. Mention Argentina to someone and the chances are that he’ll think of football.
In a sense, winning the World Cup put Argentina on the map.
Sports fans and supporters get quite unreasonable 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 Argentina, where the finals were played.
So, am I arguing that international competition kills the idea of sport? Certainly not!
Do the Argentineans really believe that because eleven of their men proved the most skillful at football, their nation is in every way better than all others?
Not really. But it’s nice to know that you won and that in one way at least your country is the best.
What is the author’s attitude towards international games?
选项
A、Nations that meet on a football field are unlikely to meet on a battlefield.
B、Nations that win the football World Cup are regarded as best in all aspects.
C、Nations that win in international games prove the best on the sports field at least.
D、Nations that give much attention to international competitions are world-famous in many ways.
答案
C
解析
本题考查考生对作者写作意图的正确理解,这一类型的考题有一定难度。通过阅读全文,特别是文章的结尾段,尤其是最后一句话:“But it’s nice to know that you won and that in one way at least your country is the best。”可判断C项:“在国际比赛中取得胜利的国家可以证明至少在体育运动方面是最优秀的”是作者的态度。
