Task II. The next task is Reading. The title of the article is “Team sports, American style”. Before reading the text let’s do a few pre-reading activities.

Pre-reading questions:

1.      Tick ( √ ) those sports that involve teams and add a few team sports on your own:

-          soccer          - hockey      - bowling

-          water polo   - checkers    - lacrosse

-          archery        -  baseball    - rowing

-          cricket         -  ice skating - car racing

2.      What are the most popular team sports in the US and Ukraine?

3.      Read the introductory paragraph. What is the topic of the article?

Now we shall start reading the text. The unknown words are highlighted in bold type. (Read and translate some sentences).

Team sports, American style

In many ways, Americans and Europeans do the same things, have the same interests, have similar lifestyles; but in “team sports”, America and Europe are two different continents. 

Europeans play football, and Americans play football; but surprisingly they do not play the same game. American football is played by men (and occasionally women) wearing helmets and protective clothing; the ball  is oval. European football is played with a round ball, by people wearing just socks, shorts, a shirt, and football boots.

We Americans have another popular outdoor game too; baseball - a classic American game, that is only played seriously in North America.

In today's "global village"(1),  lifestyles have become international; often the American model has spread to other countries of the world. American sports, however, have not spread all over the world, as American films and American fashions have. On the contrary, European sports have been more successful internationally; European football, indeed, is slowly developing in the USA (where we call it "soccer").

Besides these big sports, America of course has basketball - perhaps the most successful "export"(2). Invented at Springfield College, Massachusetts, in 1891, Basketball is quite certainly an "American game". Although it is not as big in Europe as in the USA, basketball has become much more popular in other countries than any other American team sport.

WHY IS AMERICA DIFFERENT?

The answer is simple. Until the 1960's, team sports were not played on a global scale. In Europe, people played European games, and in North America we played American games. The only real "global" sports were individual sports, such as golf and tennis.

WORDS:

helmet: hard hat; occasionally: at irregular intervals; now and then; outdoor game: a game played out of doors; baseball: a ball game played between two teams of nine on a field with  four bases; however: different from what you have just said (однак); spread: cover, extend over a large or increasing area; successful: accomplishing an aim or purpose; fortunate; indeed: in fact, really; besides: in addition to; on a global scale: all over the world.

Let’s do a comprehension task now. Answer the following questions.

Questions:

1. How many words of sporting vocabulary can you find in the article?
2. How does European “football” differ from American “soccer”?
3. How do you understand the meaning of the expression “global village”? Explain it in the context.
