Football is, I believe, the most popular game in England: one has only to go to the important matches to see this. Rich and poor, young and old, one can see them all there, shouting for one side or the other.
To a stranger, 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 will tell you who he expects will win such a match, and his opinion is usually as good as that of men three or four times his age.
Most schools in England take football seriously-much more seriously than nearly all European schools, where lessons are all very important and games are left for the children themselves. In England it is believed that education is not only a matter filling a boy’s mind with facts in the classroom: education also means the training of character; and one of the best ways of training character is by means of games, especially team games; where a boy or girl has to learn to work with others for his or her team, instead of working for oneself alone. The school therefore plans games and matches for its students. Football is a good team game. It is good both for the body and the mind. That’s why it is every school’s game in England.

【小题1】______Teaching English to adult learners is a challenging thing. But learning how to teach English to be-ginners could be much more challenging especially if you’re teaching abroad. There are special considerations that you’ll have to keep in mind, and a little more patience to spare.
【小题2】_______When you teach any foreign language to young learners, it means that you are not only going to have to teach the subject as you would in a typical classroom. Because of the age of the learners, you will have to constantly keep them interested. Children have short attention span, so you have to give extra effort to keep their attention to the subject.
【小题3】________As much as it is important to teach the language to your learners, it is also important that you know they are willing to learn and that they enjoy your classes. If you make your classes fun and full of activities and other games that promote learning and communication, the actual teaching part will be a piece of cake. Your students will always look forward to the next lesson, and they’ll look at learning English as a fun experience.
【小题4】________If you teach English abroad, the number of things to consider is increased. For one thing, you will have to use the teaching methods that are accepted by a foreign audience. You will have to learn the culture of the country. Naturally, you will also have to adjust to the life of living abroad.
【小题5】________Of course, if you would like to teach English abroad, there might be additional tests and certificates that will be required of you. You may be required to take TOEFL and take up ESL. To be sure of all the requirements, make sure that you discuss all of these during the application process early on.
