Raul Vargas Reveals Retirement Plans
By Donny Chu
Despite his flourishing career in the English League, Stallions player Raul Vargas wants to become more than a sports star. At the Soccer Federation Awards on Saturday, the newly hailed Goalie of the Year revealed his plan to quit sports and pursue another profession. "Lately, I have been thinking of giving up soccer," Vargas said during his acceptance speech. "Receiving this award is a sign that it’s time for me to retire." Such words were never expected to come from the Brazilian, who is the most treasured goalkeeper in the league. During Stopwatch Magazine’s exclusive interview with the player, however, Vargas explained that he made the decision because he has responsibilities that have forced him to retire from soccer.
"I have reached the point where I have fully achieved my dreams as an athlete," Vargas said. "More importantly, I need to become more involved with my family’s corporation, an obligation I have put aside since I began my career."
Being the sole heir of the Biobras Corporation, Vargas was originally groomed to lead the company. His parents sent him to Brasilia University to study industrial engineering, with the expectation that he would take up a master’s degree in the United States later on. While preparing to lead the top biofuel company in Brazil, however, Vargas was making a name for himself as one of the best goalkeepers in college.
Because of his impressive talent, Vargas was offered a spot on the national team immediately after graduation. Thus, he set aside plans of obtaining a graduate degree and entering Biobras Corporation, choosing rather to accept the team’s offer upon receiving the blessing of his parents.
Soccer fanatics witnessed how the career of the 29-year-old boomed. Apart from playing for the national team, Vargas joined English clubs East Hampton, Armorshire, and Hemel Finstead before he was signed by the Stallions.
"I have enjoyed putting on exciting matches with my teams. It’s rewarding to bring joy to football fans," Vargas said.
However, Vargas has made the choice to take off his uniform and venture into the corporate world. "Nothing is permanent in the sports industry. I have to establish a more stable career, and I hope this decision will allow me to do it. Nevertheless, soccer will always be my first love," Vargas said.
What does Mr. Vargas mention about his current career?
选项
A、It is a well-paying job.
B、It is not very predictable.
C、It inspires him to play other sports.
D、It does not develop his skills.
答案
B
解析
本题应将选项中与题目核心词his current career有关的内容带回到原文中去查找并判断正误。(A)在原文中没有被提及。原文中提到“Nothing is permanent in the sports industry.”.即在体育界没有什么东西是永久的,故(B)与原文内容一致,因此(B)It is not very predictable.为正确答案。(C)和(D)在原文中没有被提及。
