Sports and games are very useful for character training. In their lessons at school, boys and girls may learn about such virtues as unselfishness, courage, discipline and love of one's country. But what is learned in books cannot have the same deep effect on a child's character as what is learned by experience. As most of the pupils' time is spent in classes studying lessons, the ordinary day school can't give much practical training for their lives in the future. So it is what the pupils do is the spare time that really prepares them to take their places in society as citizens when they grow up. If each of them learns to work for his team, and not for himself on the football field, he will later find it natural to work for the good of his country instead of only for his own benefit.
Questions 18 to 20 are based on the passage you have just heard.

參考答案及分析
18 C 這一題的考點在這樣一句話，But what is learned in books cannot have the same deep effect on a child's character as what is learned by experience. 這里But是一個強轉折的提示詞，the same …… as …… 是一個比較的提示詞。這里作者是用learned in books 和learned by experience作比較。作者認為后者更具優勢，而這里的experience 體驗，經歷也就是指的錢文的“Sports and games”所以選C
19 A 這題的考點在“As most of the pupils' time is spent in classes studying lessons,”As是一個明顯的表原因的提示詞。這句話的說法和用詞和A選項幾乎是如出一轍，毫無疑問應該是選A
20 B 這題考的是最后一句話“If each of them learns to work for his team, and not for himself on the football field, he will later find it natural to work for the good of his country instead of only for his own benefit.” If是一個條件提示詞，work for his team 為他的團隊工作，作者的意思也就是說Collective activities集體活動可以培養孩子何種團隊精神。所以選B
