B
The
word“sport”first meant something that
people did in their free it
often
meant
hunting
wild
animals
and
a
hundred
years
ago
the
word
was first used for
organized is the usual meaning of the word
spend a lot
of
their spare time playing football
，
basketball
，
tennis
and many other
people
play
because
they
want
to.A
few
people
are
paid
for
the
sport
they
play.
These
people
are
called
professional(
职业化的
)
may
be
sportsmen for only a few
years
，
but during
that time the best ones can earn a lot of
money.
For
example
，
a professional
footballer in England earns more
than
￡
3,000 a year.
The stars can earn a lot
ational
golf(
高尔夫球
)and tennis
champions(
冠
军
)can
make more than
￡
50,000 a
year. Of course
，
only a few
sportsmen can earn as
much money as is
only possible in sports for individuals (
个人
)
，
like
golf
，
tennis
and
motor racing(
赛车
)
．
Perhaps the most surprising thing about
sportsmen and money
is
this
：
the stars can earn more
money from
advertising(
打广告
)than from
advertisement for sports equipment
doesn't simply say“Buy our
things”
．
It says“Buy
the
same
shirts
and
shoes
as...”
．
Famous
sportsmen
can
even
advertise
things
like
watches and allow the companies to use
their names or photographs of them
and
they are paid for are no longer just something
for people's spare time.
