（A）

Football is，I believe，the most important game in England：one has only to go to one of 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 has pictures of them and knows the results of large numbers of matches. 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 that are important，and games are left for the children themselves. In England，it is believed that education is not only a matter of filling a boy’s mind with facts in classroom， it also means the training of character by means of games，especially team games，where the boy or girl has to learn to work with others for the team instead of working for himself or herself alone. The school therefore plays games and matches for its pupils. Football is a good team game；it is good for both body and mind. That is why it is every school’s game in England.

31． In paragraph 1，“this ”means .

A． people often shout at each other in a football match B． people，rich and poor，young and old， often play football C． football is the most popular game in England D． people usually go to the important matches
