Passage1 (2021·上海普陀区·高三二模)
Boxing is a popular sport that many people seem to be fascinated by. Newspapers, magazines and sports programmes on TV frequently 1 boxing matches. Professional boxers earn a lot of money, and successful boxers are 2 as big heroes.
It seems to me that some people, especially men, find it 3 because it is an aggressive sport. When they watch a boxing match, they can 4 the winning boxer, and this gives them the feeling of being a 5 themselves. It is a fact that many people have feelings of aggression from time to time, but they cannot show their 6 in their everyday lives. Watching a boxing match gives them an outlet for this aggression.
However, there is a 7 side to boxing. It can be a very dangerous sport. Although boxers wear gloves during the fights, and amateur boxers 8 have to wear helmets, there have frequently been accidents in both professional and amateur boxing, sometimes with 9 consequences. Boxers have suffered from head injuries, and occasionally, fighters have even been killed as a result of being knocked out in the 10 . Furthermore, studies have shown that there are often long-term effects of boxing, in the form of serious brain 11 , even if a boxer has never been knocked out.
I am personally not at all in 12 of aggressive sports like boxing. I think it would be better if less time was 13 to aggressive sports on TV, and we welcomed more men and women from non-aggressive sports as our heroes and heroines in our society. I believe that the world is aggressive enough already! Of course, people like 14 sports, and so do I, but I think that 15 other people in an aggressive way is not something that should be regarded as a sport.
