    If you are like many people, you enjoy sports in your leisure time. Many of us watch sports on TV, go to games and meets, and play tennis or golf in the time left after school or work. We may even chat about sports on the Internet. Many observers note that sports reinforce(加强;增强)norms and values important to society, like competition and teamwork. Sports metaphors, such as "There is no I in TEAM," teach us that success is achieved by putting the group above individual glory. Slogans like "Winners never quit and quitters never win" reinforce values of competition and working hard to get ahead.

     Nevertheless, organized sports have been criticized for several things. One is that they encourage potentially harmful male aggression.  Another is that they direct minority students, particularly African American males, toward athletics--instead of academics--as a road to success.  However, only a very small minority of high school athletes are able to support themselves through athletics. In fact, according to one estimate, only one of 12,000 high school athletes will earn money as a professional athlete; among those who make it, the average professional career lasts only three years. Nevertheless, the importance of sports in teaching and reinforcing norms and values, along with the role of sports in symbolizing and integrating communities, are important reasons why nearly every nation has encouraged athletics.

64. What's the primary purpose of the writer's writing the passage?

     A. To discuss the advantages and disadvantages of promoting athletics.

     B. To argue against supporting athletic teams in high schools.

     C. To entertain the reader with anecdotes about sports figures.

     D. To persuade that sports programs in schools need more money.

65. What does the underlined word "norms" probably mean?

     A. Types of sports.                                   B. Unusual or rare events.

     C. Errors to be avoided.                            D. Expected standards of behavior.

66. What's the main idea of the second paragraph?

     A. Athletics are supported by many countries.

     B. Emphasis on athletics may have some negative effects.

     C. Athletics prepare young people for success in life.

     D. African Americans often make excellent athletes.

67. The author of this passage probably feels that __________.

     A. teamwork is not important to success in athletics
