What Makes a Soccer Player Great?
Soccer is played by millions of people all over the world,but there have only been few play-ers who were truly great.How did these players get that way—was it through training and prac- tice,or are great players“born,not made”?First,these players came from places that have had famous stars in the past-players that a young boy can look up to and try to imitate.In the history of soccer,only six countries have ever won the World Cup-three from South America and three from western Europe .There has never been a great national team-or a really great player-from North America or from Asia.Second,these players have all had years of practice in the game. Alfredo Di Stefano was the son of a soccer player,as was Pele.Most players begin playing the game at the age of three or four.
Finally,many great players come from the same kind of neighborhood—a poor,crowded area where a boy's dream is not to be a doctor,lawyer,or businessman,but to become a rich,famous athlete or entertainer. For example,Liverpool,which produced the Beetles,had one of the best
English soccer teams in recent years.Pele practiced in the street with a“ball”made of rags.And George Best learned the tricks that made him famous by bouncing the ball off a wall in the slums of Belfast.
All great players have a lot in common,but that doesn't explain why they are great. Hundreds of boys played in those Brazilian streets,but only one became Pele.The greatest play-ers are born with some unique quality that sets them apart from all the others.According to the author,which of the following statements is true?
A: Great soccer players are born,not made.
B: Truly great players are rare.
C: Only six countries have ever had famous soccer stars.
D: Soccer is the least popular sport in North America and Asia.答案：B解析：Truly great players are rare：真正棒的球员是很少的。答案在文章的第一句：全世界有许许多多人踢足球，可是踢得真正棒的球员只是极少数人。
skills：技巧。tricks出现在第二段的最后一个句子中。根据句子的意思，该词表达的是“技巧”的意思。该题是考查根据上下文猜词的能力。
many geat soccer players come from poor areas：许多很棒的足球球员都来自贫困地区。第二段的第一个句子说到，许多很棒的球员都来自同一种聚居区——一种贫困的、拥挤的……地区。
the greatest players are born with some unique quality：最棒的球员的某种独特的素质是与生俱来的。这个子句引自文章的最后一个句子“The great players are born with some unique quality that sets them apart from all the others”。
his height：身高。“身高”在文章中没有提到。 -

细节归纳题。文章第一段第三句提到，就像你有权发表你的意见一样，我也有权发表我的意见。末段指出，是不是每个人都被赋予发表意见的权利？那当然。每个人都有发表个人意见的权利，这是中心内容。故A项“人人都有权拥有自己的意见”符合文章内容。文章首段第三句提到，若不太重视意见时，随意使用他不会引起乱子。可见，B项“自由发表意见常引起混乱”与原文不符。文章开头提到，对“意见”一词的使用分成三类：品位，信念和判断。对第一种的使用有些粗心，后两种不是，所以，C项“在构成意见上，大多数人往往是粗心的”与原文不符。文中仅在讲到品位时说明滥用意见一词会引起无聊的争吵，其他使用意见时没有D项“随便使用‘意见’一词，常引起吵架”意思。综上所述，A项正确。 -
