Football
How to win the World Cup
Though tainted by corruption, the tournament rewards liberalism,
internationalism and open markets【句型】
虽受贪腐丑闻影响，这一赛事仍然褒奖自由主义、国际主义和开放市场。
Yet the competition itself, as opposed to与…截然相反 /完全不同the murky process of deciding where it is played, showcases好词 progress【句型】. Teams really are better than they used to be. It also rewards good government. Autocratic regimes such as China and Russia can ruthlessly drill 训练track-and-field田径运动的 athletes—indeed, the Olympic games sometimes resemble an authoritarian pageant. But dictatorships are rubbish at football, which requires more creativity and flair. The contrast between the former East and West Germany is striking. The East trained massively muscled shot-putters铅球运动员; the West, sublime shot-makers投手. 【好句/省略句】Only four countries rated “not free” by Freedom House, a charity, have qualified for this year’s World Cup, and none is likely to get far. The last country with an autocratic government to win the tournament was Argentina in1978. The women’s contest has only ever been won by democracies (America,Germany, Japan and Norway), though China once made it to the final.（世界杯展示出了进步）
然而，不同于确定世界杯主办国的暗箱操作，比赛本身彰显着进步。球队的确比以前更优秀。比赛也是对良好国家体制的一种嘉奖。中国和俄罗斯等国家可以残酷无情地训练田径运动员——奥运会有时简直就像是国家的盛会。但在足球这项更讲求创造力和天赋的运动上，统治无能为力。前东德与西德之间的对比就很鲜明。东德训练出肌肉发达的铅球选手，而西德则培养出伟大的射门高手。慈善机构（Freedom House）评定为“不自由”的国家只有四个入围了今年的世界杯，而且都不太可能走得很远。上一次夺得世界杯的国家是1978年的阿根廷。至于女足世界杯，尽管中国曾打入决赛，但最后夺冠的都是民主国家（美国、德国、日本和挪威）。

International football punishes inward-looking countries and rewards those with more cosmopolitan attitudes.【句型】When picking team managers, wise countries pass over their national heroes and appoint managers of any nationality who have proved themselves in western Europe’stough football leagues. They also call upon their diasporas散居在国外的人.African countries can field【熟词生义】 half-decent过得去的teams largely because so many of their players have refined their skills abroad. Rich-country teams also benefit from the talents of immigrants. Fully half of France’s victorious squad in 1998 were of migrant stock.（国际足球赞赏有世界性眼光的态度。）
在国际足球竞技中，封闭的国家落败，而态度更开放更国际化的国家胜出。在选择球队主教练时，明智的国家放弃了本国的英雄人物，任命那些已经在西欧高水平联赛中证明过自身价值的人，而不论其国籍。他们还会征召海外侨民。非洲国家之所以能派出还算像样的球队，主要就是因为其中不少球员在国外磨练出了一身好球技。发达国家的球队也得益于移民人才。1998年法国夺得世界杯时，队中一半球员都是移民后裔。

Why nations fail国家为何失败
Football can also teach countries how to spot and hone human capital.The best performers not only have systems for finding gifted children, but also ways of spotting late developers who failed to make the first cut. Their academies turn out intelligent, creative players rather than dribbling automatons运球机器. Then, if they are clever, they drop their best footballers into a competitive market. A simple model of countries’ aptitude for football, which weighs things like wealth and interest in the game, suggests that America ought to be doing better. One possible reason for the failure of its men’s teams is that America’s professional soccer league is a cartel. Salaries are capped封顶的【高频词/熟词生义】, and the lower-division teams in which domestic players might develop cannot be promoted.
足球也可以教导国家如何发掘和培养人力资本。足球强国不仅有挖掘天才少年的体系，还有办法发现未能在一开始脱颖而出的大器晚成者。他们的足球培训学校培养会动脑筋、有创造力的球员，而非运球机器。之后，明智的话，他们会把最好的球员投放到竞争激烈的市场上。一个评估各国足球潜力的简单模型衡量了财力、对足球的兴趣等因素，显示出美国本应有更好的表现。美国男足失败，一个原因可能是因为美国职业足球联赛是一个垄断联盟。球员工资设有上限，能锻炼本国球员的低级别球队又无法升级。

So liberal internationalists should enjoy the World Cup, despite the Putinophile亲普京的 propaganda that will nodoubt disfigure itfrom time to time. Football,like life, is gloriously unpredictable. For what it is worth, our model suggests that one country is best-placedto不二人选dominate the beautiful game; indeed, it has performed slightly worse than it should have done over the years. That country is Germany.
所以，自由开明的国际主义者应该享受世界杯，尽管亲普京的宣传无疑会不时折损其光彩。足球，和人生一样，因不可预知而壮美。不管价值几许，权且看看我们的模型做出的预测：有一个国家最可能称霸这一美妙的竞赛。事实上，这些年该国的表现一直略低于它本应达到的高度。它就是德国。
