Passage1 2 
Football is, I believe3, the most popular4 game in England: one has only to go to one of the important5 matches to see this. Rich and poor, young and old, one can see them all there, shouting for one side6 or the other. 
To a stranger7 one of the most surprising8 things about football in England is the great knowledge9 of the game which even10 the smallest boy seems12 to have. He can tell you the names of the players13 in most of the important teams, he has pictures of them and knows the results14 of large number of matches. He will tell you who he expects15 will win such16 and such a match, and his opinion17 is usually as2 good as that of men three of four times his age. 
Most schools in England take football seriously - much more seriously than nearly18 all European19 schools, where lessons are all that are important, and games are left for the children themselves20. In England it is believed21 that education22 is not only a matter of filling23 a boy's mind24 with facts25 in the classroom, education also means26 the training27 of character28; and one of the best ways of training character is by means of games, especially29 team games, instead30 of working for himself31 alone32. The school therefore33 plans34 games and matches for its pupils. Football is a good team game, it is good both for the body and the mind. That is why it is every school's game in England. 

6. At football matches, people often _______ one team or the other by shouting. 
 A. watch 
 B. win over 
 C. laugh at 
 D. support 


7. In England school boys seem11 _________ football games. 
 A. to know a great deal35 about 
 B. not to know much about 
 C. to know a little about 
 D. to know nothing about 


8. In the sentence36 "Hs is as good as that of men three of times his age", "that" means __________. 
 A. the match 
 B. the opinion 
 C. the age 
 D. the team 


9. In England, education means __________. 
 A. filling a boy's mind with stories 
 B. more than teaching37 of knowledge 
 C. the teaching of knowledge only 
D. training character by means of football game
