There are many kinds of ball games in the world, basketball, volleyball, football, baseball… In my opinion (观点), the most popular game is football. When the important matches begin, all the audience cheer for one side or the other.
Football started in England. Now it’s very popular in many countries, such as France, Germany, Italy and so on. It is surprising that very small kids in England know a lot about football. They can tell you the names of the players in most of the important teams. They can show you the photos of their favorite players. They can remember clearly the results (结果) of the most important matches. They can even expect (预料) which team will win or which team will lose. Can you believe it?
However, in China, Chinese students work hard for higher grades and they have no time for sports. The schools should arrange (安排) some games and matches for their students. It’s good for children.

文章主要讲述有关孩子与足球的情况。
1．B【解析】细节理解题。根据“In my opinion (观点), the most popular game is football.”可知，作者认为世界上最受欢迎的运动项目是足球。故选B。
2．C【解析】推理判断题。A. it's surprising that Chinese students know much about football（中国的学生孩子对足球热爱和了解的程度令人惊奇）。根据“It is surprising that very small kids in England know a lot about football.”可知，英国孩子对足球热爱和了解的程度令人惊奇；故A与原文不相符。B. all the audience only cheer for one side in a match（在比赛中观众只为一方加油）。根据“all the audience cheer for one side or the other”可知，所有的观众都为一方或另一方欢呼；故B与原文不相符。C. in fact (事实), no one knows for certain (确切的) who will win（事实上，没有人确切知道谁会赢）。根据“They can even expect (预料) which team will win or which team will lose.”可知，英国孩子对比赛结果只是预测而非绝对肯定，没有人能做到这一点；故C正确。D. in China, students don't like football（在中国，学生不喜欢足球）。根据“However, in China, Chinese students work hard for higher grades and they have no time for sports.”可知，中国孩子不是不喜欢运动和足球而是没有时间；故D与原文不相符。故选C。
3．C【解析】词句猜测题。cheer for“为……欢呼”，观看比赛并欢呼加油的只能是观众。故选C。
4．B【解析】细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“Football started in England ”（足球起源于英国）可知，足球来自英国。故选B。
5．C【解析】主旨大意题。通读全文，文章谈论的是孩子与足球的情况，即体育运动，而非音乐、电影和戏剧。故选C。
【点睛】
阅读理解考察学生的细节理解和推理判断能力，做细节理解题时一定要找到文章中的原句，和题干进行比较，再做出正确的选择。在做推理判断题不要以个人的主观想象代替文章的事实，要根据文章事实进行合乎逻辑的推理判断。例如小题4，细节理解题。根据第二段第一句“Football started in England ”（足球起源于英国）可知，足球来自英国。故选B。
