十四. Sports in America

　　In many parts of the world, there are four seasons: spring, summer, fall and winter.There are only three in America: football, basketball and baseball. If you want to know what season it is, just have a look at what people are playing.

　　Sports are an important part of American culture. Students learn to play many sports at school. They take PE classes. Some join the school teams, and others join school sports leagues(聯(lián)盟).

　　For many people in the USA, sports are not just for fun. They're almost a religion (宗教). Thousands of sports fans buy expensive tickets to watch their favorite teams and sports stars play. Other fans watch games on TV at home. The most devoted(投入的) sports fans never miss a game.

　　體育是美國(guó)文化(American culture)的一個(gè)重要部分(part)。學(xué)生在校時(shí)學(xué)習(xí)很多體育項(xiàng)目。他們上體育課(PE)。有些學(xué)生加入校隊(duì)(join the school team)．還有些學(xué)生加入學(xué)校體育聯(lián)盟。
