Football is, I suppose, the most popular game in England. Rich and{#blank#}1{#/blank#} , young and old, you can see them all there, shouting and{#blank#}2{#/blank#} for one side or the other.
        You may be surprised to find that even the smallest boy seems to have the great{#blank#}3{#/blank#} of the game. He can tell you the names of the players in most of the important teams. He has{#blank#}4{#/blank#} of them and knows the results of many matches. He will tell you who he expects will{#blank#}5{#/blank#} such and such a match, and his opinion is usually as valuable as that of men three or four times his age.
     In England, it is{#blank#}6{#/blank#} that education means not only filling a boy's mind with facts in a classroom but also training character. One of the{#blank#}7{#/blank#} ways of training character is by playing games,{#blank#}8{#/blank#} team games, where the boy has to learn to work with others for his team, instead of working{#blank#}9{#/blank#} himself alone.
    Football is good exercise for the{#blank#}10{#/blank#} , it is a team game, it needs skill and a quick brain. So the school often arranges games and matches for its pupils.
