足球知识（1）
TEAMS Each soccer team has eleven players and three substitute, or reserve players. The team consists of a goalkeeper, defenders, midfield players, and forwards (or strikers). The object of the game is to get the ball into your opponent's goal.
球队每支球队有11名场上队员和3名替补队员。球队包括守门员、防守队员、中场队员和前锋。比赛的目的就是要将足球踢人对方的球门。
THE MATCH A game of soccer is called a match and is split into two halves of 45 minutes each, with a 15-minute break at halftime. A referee and two assistants make sure that nobody cheats or breaks the rules.
比赛足球比赛分为两个半场，每半场各45分钟，上下半场中间有15分钟的休息时间。比赛有一位主裁判和两名助理裁判，他们的职责是监督是否有球员作弊或者是犯规。
GOALKEEPING Goalkeeping is a special skill. While the rest of the team can afford to make mistakes, if the goalkeeper makes one, it usually results in a goal for the opposition. Above Your Head The best way to catch a ball above your head is by joining the thumbs and forefingers of your hands together so there is a small arch between your hands. Chest or Head Jump off one leg and cradle the ball comfortably to your chest. The ball should rest on your forearms, with your hands holding it from above. Left or Right Always try to get both hands behind the ball and hold on tight. As soon as you've caught it, bring the ball quickly into the safety of your body.
守门守门是一项特殊的技能。队里的其他球员有失误问题还不太要紧，但守门员的失误就常常导致对方进球。过顶球处理过顶球的最佳方法是用大拇指和其他手指一起来接球，因为那样双手之间可形成一个拱形。胸前或眼前球单脚跳起，把球自然地抱在怀里。用前臂夹住球，两手从前臂上方抱住球。左侧球或右侧球要尽量从球后方来牢牢地接住球，一旦接住了球，就要赶快把球抱住。足球知识（2）

Soccer is the most popular sport in the world.
For those of you who are unfamiliar with the game I would like to give a brief introduction. 2 teams of 11 players pete on a soccer field at once. They can only touch the ball with their feet, head and chest. If they use their hands, the ball is given to the other team. Only the goalie can use hands. The objective is for each team to score on the opposing team's goal.
In 20xx, the president of the International Confederation of Association Football, or FIFA for short, confirmed that soccer originated from China during the Warring States Period in 476-221 B.C. However, even though they followed the no-hands rule it was still very different from the soccer we know and love today.
Soccer changed and developed over the next centuries as it traveled through different countries around the world.
Modern day soccer started in England about 200 years ago. In May 21 1904, FIFA was established in Paris. From 1930, a World Cup would be held every 4 years.
Soccer is already a sport that we need in our life. There are about 800 thousand teams that usually play in matches. There are about 40 million players that signed up. There are a 100 thousand professional players.
As I mentioned before, traditionally, soccer matches have consisted of 11 players; however, now other petitive options are available including, five on five, seven on seven, and even beach soccer.
Soccer is really a sport that can be enjoyed by people of all ages and ability. I have loved playing for more than half of my life and I know that if you start today you will too.
足球知识（3）
有一天，我和爸爸正在看比赛，到中场休息的时候，爸爸突然笑眯眯的问我：“然然，老爸有个问题想考考你，你知道20xx年和20xx年哪年是世界杯年吗？”我赶紧调动脑海里关于世界杯的知识，一边想一边说：“世界杯4年一届，20xx÷4=500……2，而20xx÷4=500，正好能除尽，应该是20xx年！”爸爸笑笑说：“你能想到用除法，非常棒，但20xx年才是世界杯年哦。”“可是20xx除以4不能除尽啊？”我疑惑的问爸爸。爸爸摸摸我的头，说：“别着急，你再想想，世界杯是从哪年开始的？”哦！我恍然大悟，“我知道了！要从1930年开始算，所以（20xx-1930）÷4=17……2，（20xx-1930）÷4=18，要和世界杯开始的年份相减，被4除尽的20xx年才是！”我兴奋地大声叫起来。爸爸听到我的回答，对我竖起了大拇指。
接着爸爸又问我：“世界杯总共有32支队伍参加，分成8个小组，每个组有几个队呢？”我连忙回答：“4个队。”“那你知道这4个队要进行几场比赛吗？整个世界杯小组赛要进行几场比赛？我们一起来画个图吧。”说完，爸爸拿出了纸笔给我画了一幅对阵图。
看着爸爸画的图，我按规律数出了分别和A队、B队、C队和D队比赛的次数，3+2+1=6场，所以4个小组要进行6场比赛，小组赛共有6×8=48场比赛，画图的方法真方便啊！
小朋友们，原来世界杯里包含着丰富的数学知识，我们以后可以一边看球一边学数学，这是一件多么愉快的事情啊。
