Football is, I suppose, the most popular games in England: one has only to go to one of the important 36  to see this. Rich and poor, young and old, one can see them all there, shouting and37   for one side or the other. One of the most 38  things about football in England to a stranger is the  39    knowledge of the game which even the 40  seems to have. He can tell you the names of the players in 41   of the important teams. He 42   photographs of them and knows the results of a large number of matches. He will tell you 43  he expects will win such and such a match, 44   his opinion is usually as 45   as that of men three or four times his 46  . 

Most schools in England take 47   seriously --much more seriously than nearly all the schools in other countries, 48  lessons are all important, and games are left for one’s own arrangements（安排）. In England, it is believed that 49  is not only a matter of filling a boy’s mind with facts in the 50   ; education also means character training. One of the 51  ways of training character is by means of games, 52   team games, where the boy has to learn to 53  with others for his team, instead of working for himself alone. The school therefore arranges games and matches for its 54   . Football is a good team game and it is good exercise for the 55 .
