一、阅读理解
Passage 1
Football is often described as the world's game,a simple sport that unites people across cultures.Yet the
very rules that make it universal also create complex debates about fairness,technology,and the spinit of
the game.A prime example is the offside rule,which has been a source of controversy for over a century
The offside rule,in its simplest form,prevents attacking players from"goal-hanging"-waiting near the
opponent's goal for a pass.While this seems logical,its application is notoriously tricky.A player is
offside if they are nearer to the opponent's goal line than both the ball and the second-last defender when
the ball is played to them.However,exceptions exist:a player cannot be offside in their own half,from a
goal kick,or from a throw-in.This complexity often leads to contentious decisions,especially at high
speed.
The introduction of the Video Assistant Referee (VAR)was intended to resolve these controversies.By
allowing referees to review footage of key incidents,including goals,penalties,and red cards,VAR
aimed to ensure correctness.Proponents argue that it corrects clear and obvious errors,leading to fairer
outcomes.They point to disallowed goals for marginal offsides as evidence of improved accuracy
Critics,however,contend that VAR undermines the flow and emotion of the game.Celebrations are
delayed,and matches are punctuated by long pauses.More fundamentally,they argue that football's
beauty lies in its human element-the fallibility of referees and the spontaneity of play.The pursuit of
perfect accuracy,they suggest,can kill the very spinit it is meant to protect.The debate between objective
correctness and the subjective,flowing nature of the game remains fierce.As technology advances,the
football world must constantly re-evaluate what it truly values:a perfectly fair game,or a perfectly human
one
()1.What is the main pupose of the first paragraph?
A.To introduce the offside rule as a key source of debate.
B.To argue that football is too simple to need complex rules.
C.To explain why football is called the world's game.
D.To compare football rules with those of other sports.
()2.Aplayer is NOT considered offside if they are
A.in their own half when the ball is played
B.nearer to the goal line than the second-last defender
C.waiting near the opponent's goal for a pass
D.between the ball and the goal of the opposing team
()3.What is akey reason critics oppose the use of VAR?
A.It does not improve the accuracy of decisions.
B.It reduces the number of goals scored in a match.
C.It disrupts the natural rhythm and excitement of the game.
D.It gives an unfair advantage to the defending team.
()4.What is the author's attitude towards the debate about VAR?
A.Strongly supportive of the technology.
B.Clearly opposed to any rule changes.
C.Neutral,presenting both sides of the argument.
D.Dismissive,viewing the debate as unimportant.

B.simple
C.controversial
D.unimportant
Passage 2
The sight of a young Pele playing barefoot in the streets of Bauru,Brazil,with a sock stuffed with rags is
an iconic image of football's humble origins.This romantic vision,however,contrasts sharply with the
modem reality.Today,football is a multi-billion-dollar industry,where children are scouted at increasingly
young ages and placed into highly structured,competitive academies.This shift has profound implications
for the development of young talent and the very nature of the sport.
On one hand,professional academies offer unparalleled opportunities.Young players receive top-tier
coaching,nutrition,and medical care,often from a very early age.They compete in high-level
tournaments,gaining exposure and experience that was previously unimaginable.For a talented child
from a disadvantaged background,an academy can offer a clear pathway out of poverty.The system is
designed to refine raw talent into polished,professional skill,maximizing a player's potential.
On the other hand,this system has a significant dark side.The pressure to succeed is immense.Children
as young as six or seven are placed in a win-at-all-costs environment,where their entire self-worth can
become tied to their performance.This can lead to immense psychological stress,burnout,and a high
drop-out rate.For every success story,there are hundreds of young players who are released from
academies,often with their education neglected and their dreams shattered.Critics argue that this
industrialised approach to talent development strips the game of its joy,creativity,and spontaneity,tumning
it into a high-stakes business rather than a playground for expression.The pursuit of the next superstar
may,in fact,be harming the very soul of the beautiful game.
()6.The article begins with the story of Pele to
A.criticize the modemn football academy system
B.illustrate the difference between past and present
C.show that talent can only be found in Brazil
D.argue that equipment is not important for success
()7.What is one major advantage of professional football academies mentioned in the text?
A.They allow children to play for fun.
B.They guarantee a career as a professional footballer.
C.They provide high-level training and support.
D.They ensure children receive a good education.
()8.The author uses the phrase "win-at-all-costs environment"in paragraph 3 to describe
A.a supportive and cooperative atmosphere
B.an intensely competitive and pressured setting
C.a safe space for creative play
D.a place where education is valued more than sport
()9.What is the main concern critics have about modern football academies?
A.They are too expensive for poor families.
B.They fail to produce enough professional players
C.They prioritize commercial success over a child's well-being
D.They focus too much on teamwork and not enough on individual skill
()10.Which of the following best summarizes the author's overall message?
A.Modemn football academies are an entirely positive development for the sport.
B.The traditional way of playing football was better and should be restored.
C.While academies offer benefits,they also pose significant risks to young players.
D.The main goal of football should be to produce the most talented players.

If you think football is just a game of strength and speed,you haven't seen a master like Andrea Pirlo
play.He was a midfielder who redefined the art of passing,(1)a level of intelligence and
vision that seemed almost supernatural.

he was an anomaly.He played at his own slow,deliberate(3)
a "regista"who
directed the game from deep positions.His secret was his extraordinary ability to read the game.He

time
His most famous weapon was the "pass"-a perfectly weighted ball that could travel 50 meters and land
exactly on a teammate's foot.He didn't just pass the ball;he(5)
it,crafting opportunities from
nothing.His free kicks were legendary,often described as works of art,curling over defensive walls and

Pirlo's career was a testament to the power of the mind in football.He proved that you don't need to be

三、阅读短文回答问题
Read the following passage and answer the questions in complete sentences
In the history of football,some moments transcend the game itself,becoming symbols of hope,resilience
and the human spirit.The story of the Iraqi football team's victory in the 2007 Asian Cup is one such
moment.
In 2007,Iraq was a country torn apart by war.Sectarian violence was rife,and the daily life of an
ordinary citizen was fraught with danger and uncertainty.Hope was a scarce commodity.Yet,amidst the
chaos,the national football team began a remarkable journey.They were not a team of superstars.They
were a team of players from different ethnic and religious backgrounds-Shia,Sunni,and Kurd-
brought together by a shared passion.They had no permanent home stadium and trained in difficult
conditions,often traveling across the war-tomn country just to practice
Against all odds,they progressed through the toumnament.Their matches were not just games,they were
temporary truces.For 90 minutes,a nation united.The streets emptied as people huddled around
televisions,Sunnis and Shias celebrating a goal together.The team's captain,Younis Mahmoud,a Sunni,
became a national hero,his face a symbol of unity.When they defeated Saudi Arabia 1-0 in the final,the
country erupted in joy.It was a rare moment of collective happiness in a sea of sorrow.
The victory was not just a sporting achievement.It was a powerful statement of national identity.It
showed that despite the deep divisions tearing the country apart,there was still a common thread-an
Iraqi identity-that could unite them.The team,representing a unified Iraq,gave its people back
something the war had taken away:a sense of pride and the belief that something beautiful could emerge
from the ruins.Their triumph was a testament to the unifying power of sport,a fleeting glimpse of what
could be possible if peace prevailed.
1.What was the political and social situation in Irag in 2007?
2.What kind of team was the Iraqi national football team described as?
3.What effect did the team's matches have on the Iraqi people during the tournament?
4.According to the passage,what was the most significant meaning of Iraq's victory?
5.The author describes the victory as a"fleeting glimpse of what could be possible if peace prevailed."
What does this imply about the author's view on peace in Iraq?

Dear Henry,
Great to hear from you!I think football is so popular because it's incredibly simple to play-you only
need a ball and some space.
As we leamned in our lessons,it also has the amazing power to bring people together regardless of their
background or religion.The recent World Cup is a perfect example,for a whole month,the world was
united.The drama,the passion,and the unexpected twists make it endlessly fascinating.
In my opinion,it's more than a game,it's a universal language of happiness.
What do you think?
Best wishes,
LiHua

Dear Henry,
Great to hear from you!I think football is so popular because it's incredibly simple to play-you only
need a ball and some space.
As we leamed in our lessons,it also has the amazing power to bring people together regardless of their
background or religion.The recent World Cup is a perfect example,for a whole month,the world was
united.The drama,the passion,and the unexpected twists make it endlessly fascinating.
In my opinion,it's more than a game,it's a universal language of happiness
