The team that scored more goals won the game. Many famous generals, such as Wei Qing and Huo Qubing, enjoyed playing cuju in their free time. Even Emperor Cheng of the Han Dynasty was a big fan of this exciting sport. He often watched matches and cheered for his favorite teams. But things changed in the Ming Dynasty. Some officials played cuju too much. They spent so much time on the sport that they often forgot their important work. As a result, Zhu Yuanzhang, the first emperor of the Ming Dynasty, banned（废除） the sport for officials. Later, the Qing Dynasty kept the ban. Cuju slowly disappeared from China. However, the story of cuju did not end there. In 2004, FIFA（国际足联） officially accepted cuju as the earliest form of soccer. This made many Chinese people very proud. Just two years later, in 2006, China listed cuju as a national intangible cultural heritage（国家级非物质文化遗产）. This means that cuju is an important part of Chinese culture and history. Today, people in Linzi still remember the history of cuju. They often hold cuju activities to show the traditional culture to visitors. Cuju is a great example of how a sport can connect the past and the present. It also shows the wisdom and creativity of ancient Chinese people. 56.Who invented cuju according to legend? 57. How many players were there in a cuju game? 58. Why did Zhu Yuanzhang ban cuju for officials? 59. When did FIFA accept cuju as the earliest form of soccer? 60. Have you ever heard of “cuju”?
