02 Period Ⅱ Grammar and usage & Integrated skills Part Ⅱ 拓展阅读训练 1 [四川绵阳2023高一期末] At the FIFA World Cup in Qatar, you might notice this scene at the beginning of each game: As the soccer players lined up ready to walk onto the field, they took the hand of a smiling and excited child next to them and walked out with them hand in hand. The practice of sending children out with the players first took place from time to time throughout the 1990s. One child, also called a player escort, would accompany a team out at the beginning of an important game. From the year 2000 onwards, this custom started happening much more regularly. The Euro 2000 Championships was one of the first major soccer tournaments （锦标赛） where children were seen walking out with the players. But it was the 2002 FIFA World Cup where it really became popular. At this tournament, children were intentionally promoted at games. One of the most prominent ways this happened was by pairing up each player with a child as they walked out onto the soccer field. From then on, it has become commonplace around the world for children to walk out with the players. 刷阅读理解 2 Ultimately soccer players walk out with a child because their club requires them to. It is in the interest of the soccer club to do this as it has potential benefits for both the child and the honour of the club. Soccer is a game that is loved by children throughout the world. Many would jump at the chance to have a taste of a real game in person. It’s also a chance for soccer clubs to make money. Most clubs have some sort of programme where it’s possible to buy the experience of being a player escort. In England, it can be extremely expensive. A few years ago it was reported that some clubs were charging almost$800 per child to be a player escort! 刷阅读理解 【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了足球比赛中球员和球童共同入场这一惯例的发展过程及原因。 1.Why does the author mention the scene in the FIFA World Cup in Qatar?( ) A A.To introduce a pregame tradition.
