Rich and poor, young an

20、d old, one can see them all there, shouting for their teams. One of the most surprising things about football in England is the great knowledge of the game which even the smallest boy seems to have. He can tell you the names of the players in most of the important teams. He has pictures of them and

21、knows the results of large numbers of matches. He will tell you who he thinks will win such a match, and his opinion is usually as good as that of men three or four times of his age.Most schools in England take football seriously much more seriously than nearly all European schools, where lessons ar

22、e all that are important and games are left for the children themselves. In England it is believed that education is not only a matter of filling a boys mind with facts in the classroom; education also means the training of character by means of games, especially team games, where the boy or girl ha

23、s to learn to work with others for his or her team instead of working for himself or herself alone. Therefore the school plans games and matches for its students. Football is a good team game. It is good both for the body and the mind.That is why it is every schools game in England. 56. In England,

The biggest Swedish company sells different kinds of things on TV in 15 European countries, and in one year it made 100 million. In Fra

28、nce there are two teleshopping channels, and the French spend about 20 million a year to buy things through those channels.In Germany, until last year teleshopping was only possible on one channel for 1 hour every day. Then the government allowed more telepshopping. Other channels can open for teleb

29、usinesses, including the largest American teleshopping company and a 24hour teleshopping company. German businesses are hoping this new teleshopping will help them sell more things.Some people like teleshopping because it allows them to do their shopping without leaving their homes. With all the pro

30、blems of traffic in the cities, this is an important reason. But at the same time, other Europeans do not like this new way of shopping. They call teleshopping “junk on the air”. Many Europeans usually worry about the quality(质量) of the things for sale on TV. Good quality is important to them, and t

31、hey believe they cannot be sure about the quality of the things on TV.The need for high quality means that European teleshopping companies will have to be different from the American companies.
