1
Oh, thank goodness you are already here friends.
2
Kitty and I are about to leave for the FIFA World Cup.
3
So, why don't you join the tour as we travel back in time to witness the history of football.
4
Let's zoom in! In
5
Football soccer whatever you may prefer to call it is a passionate game in which two teams of 11 players
6
Try to drive the ball using any part of their bodies Except their hands and arm into the opposing team's goal
7
Only the goalkeeper is allowed to handle the ball within the penalty area
8
encircling the goalposts and the team that scores the most goals wins the match.
9
But unlike the beautiful game we know today, its history is as tough as a rock.
10
Considering the possibility of it originating from a game played with a ball made of actual rock.
11
Yes, around 2000 years ago,
12
Mesoamerican people called the Aztecs played a game called Chetali Where the aim was to get the ball through a stone hoop...
13
...without using their hands.
14
If the solid ball doesn't sound tough enough for you...
15
...then you'll be shocked to know that the losing team's captain...
16
...would often be sacrificed to the deities.
17
And around 206 BC, the Chinese played a similar version of the game called Kuju
18
that involved kicking a leather ball stuffed with fur or feathers to keep their military in shape.
19
At the same time, many other ancient cultures like Greek,
20
Roman and Aboriginal Australian were known to play games that involved kicking and passing the ball.
21
Then, in the 12th century in England, a game called folk football was played by the local people that not only involved kicking,
22
but also punching the ball with the fist.
23
But this game was very rough and violent in nature,
24
leading to injuries and damage to properties due to a lack of rules and governing body to look over it.
25
So, considering the danger involved in it,
26
the authority decided to officially ban the game that stayed intact for several centuries,
27
only to return in the 17th century.
28
Soon, it became part of many public schools, which had their own set of rules and confusion,
29
as some schools allowed handling the ball while others didn't didn't.
30
So fed up due to these confusions,
31
a few undergraduate students from four public schools came together in Cambridge in 1848
32
and drafted a set of 11 rules that everyone could follow and nailed it to a tree on campus.
33
These 11 laws famously came to be known as The Cambridge Rules
34
One significant rule was that handling the ball was strictly disallowed
35
and they also finalized the shape and size of the ball itself.
36
These rules are likely what started the separation of soccer and rugby which eventually became different sports.
37
After this, many more rules were made and soccer started to gain popularity.
38
Especially among the working class who looked at it as a good source of entertainment after a week of hard work.
39
And when the British expanded their empire to other parts of the world, they took the game with them, leading to its increased popularity.
40
Soon various domestic and international official clubs were formed.
41
And in 1872, the first international match between England and Scotland was played which ended up in a draw.
42
Then 12 years later in 1883 the first international tournament took place and included four national teams England,
43
Ireland, Scotland and Wales.
44
Then in 1904 FIFA was founded and the rest is is modern history.
45
Trivia time!
46
Did you know the first FIFA World Cup was held in Uruguay from 13th to 30th July, 1930?
47
Yes!
48
And the host Uruguay was crowned as the first World Cup champions.
49
Hope you had fun today.
50
Until next time, it's me, Dr. Binox, zooming out.
51
Never mind.

什么是跟读法？
跟读法 (Shadowing) 是一种有科学依据的语言学习技巧，最初开发用于专业口译员的培训，并由多语言者Alexander Arguelles博士普及。这个方法简单而强大：您在听英语母语原声的同时立即大声重复——就像是一个延迟1-2秒紧跟说话者的影子。与被动听力或语法练习不同，跟读法强迫您的大脑和口腔肌肉同时处理并模仿真实的讲话模式。研究表明它能显着提高发音准确性，语调，节奏，连读，听力理解和口语流利度——使其成为雅思口语备考和真实英语交流最有效的方法之一。
