【R1】______They may play volleyball or go swimming or skiing. They may watch football or basketball games on the high school, college, or professional level. In reality, sports have reached a point where they play too large a part in daily life. They take up too much media time, play too large a role in the raising of children, and give too much power and prestige(声望)to athletes.
The overemphasis(过度强调)on sports can be seen most obviously in the vast media coverage of athletic events. It seems as if every race, meet, or match is shown on one television channel or another.【R2】______Radio offers a complete list of games and a variety of talk shows. Furthermore, many daily papers such as USA Today are devoting more and more space to sports coverage, often in an attempt to attract more readers. The paper with the biggest sports section is the one people will buy.
The way we raise and educate our children also illustrates our sports craziness. As early as six or seven, kids are placed in little leagues, often to play under screaming coaches and pressuring parents. Later, in high school, students who are selected by the school and bythe community are not those who are best academically(学业上)but those who are best athletically.【R3】______The United States may be the only country in the world where people often think of their colleges as teams first and schools second. The names Penn State, Notre Dame and Southern Cal mean "sports" to the public.
【R4】______For one thing, we reward them with huge salaries. In 1990, for example, baseball players averaged $350,000 a year; the average annual salary in the United States is $18,000. Besides their huge salaries, athletes receive the admiration, and sometimes the votes of the public.
Why are Americans so mad about sports? Perhaps we like to see the competitivenesswe experience in our daily lives acted out on playing fields. Perhaps we need heroes who can achieve clear-cut victories in the space of only an hour or two. 【R5】______
A. Our sports craziness is especially evident in the prestige given to athletes in the United States.
B. Kids look up to a Michael Jordan or a Roger Clements as a true hero.
C. Whatever the reason, the sports scene in this country is more popular than ever.
D. Almost all Americans are involved with sports in some way.
E. And college sometimes seems to be more about sports than about learning.
F. In addition, sports news makes up about 30 percent of local news at six and eleven.
G. Even political leaders have their own dream stars.
