Young men look up to +famous footballers as role models. Several football stars began their +sporting careers as children playing on the streets. However, many of +them moved on to join football academies, or sports’ schools, to build +their talent and become professional players.</p> +<p><strong>B</strong></p> +<p>A football academy is a school set up to develop young footballers. +All major football clubs</p> +<p>such as FC Barcelona, Manchester United and Real Madrid have their +own academy.</p> +<p>They scout, or look for, young talent and then teach them to play +football to meet the club's standards at the academy.</p> +<p><strong>C</strong></p> +<p>Football academies provide football education to students who are 21 +years old and below. A student must be at least 9 years old to join an +academy. However, some football clubs, such us Arsenal, have +pre-training programmes for even younger players. All the boys at an +academy continue their normal school education. It is important that +they are able to get good jobs in case they fail to become professional +footballers.</p> +<p><strong>D</strong></p> +<p>Players between the ages of 9 and 16 have to sign schoolboy forms. +They sign a new contract every two years. When the player turns 16, the +academy decides if they are going to offer the player a place on their +Youth Training Scheme. Each year, the best players receive a +scholarship. This gives them free football training and an academic +education.</p> +<p><strong>E</strong></p> +<p>In a football academy, players attend training sessions in the +afternoon on weekdays, and in the morning at weekends. On Sundays, they +don’t train. They play matches against other academy teams. The football +academies also encourage their players to take up other sports such as +gymnastics or basketball.</p> +<p><strong>F</strong></p> +<p>FC Barcelona's football academy, La Masia, is one of the best +football academies in the world. Located in Barcelona, Spain, La Masia +has over 300 young players. Famous footballers and coaches such as +Lionel Messi, Pep Guardiola and Ces Fabregas are graduates of La Masia. +Many people think that Barcelona’s success in the football world is due +to the excellent training programme provided at La Masia.

Young men look up to +famous footballers as role models. Several football stars began their +sporting careers as children playing on the streets. However, many of +them moved on to join football academies, or sports’ schools, to build +their talent and become professional players.</p> +<p><strong>B</strong></p> +<p>A football academy is a school set up to develop young footballers. +All major football clubs</p> +<p>such as FC Barcelona, Manchester United and Real Madrid have their +own academy.</p> +<p>They scout, or look for, young talent and then teach them to play +football to meet the club's standards at the academy.</p> +<p><strong>C</strong></p> +<p>Football academies provide football education to students who are 21 +years old and below. A student must be at least 9 years old to join an +academy. However, some football clubs, such us Arsenal, have +pre-training programmes for even younger players. All the boys at an +academy continue their normal school education. It is important that +they are able to get good jobs in case they fail to become professional +footballers.</p> +<p><strong>D</strong></p> +<p>Players between the ages of 9 and 16 have to sign schoolboy forms. +They sign a new contract every two years. When the player turns 16, the +academy decides if they are going to offer the player a place on their +Youth Training Scheme. Each year, the best players receive a +scholarship. This gives them free football training and an academic +education.</p> +<p><strong>E</strong></p> +<p>In a football academy, players attend training sessions in the +afternoon on weekdays, and in the morning at weekends. On Sundays, they +don’t train. They play matches against other academy teams.

Young men look up to +famous footballers as role models. Several football stars began their +sporting careers as children playing on the streets. However, many of +them moved on to join football academies, or sports’ schools, to build +their talent and become professional players.</p> +<p><strong>B</strong></p> +<p>A football academy is a school set up to develop young footballers. +All major football clubs</p> +<p>such as FC Barcelona, Manchester United and Real Madrid have their +own academy.</p> +<p>They scout, or look for, young talent and then teach them to play +football to meet the club's standards at the academy.</p> +<p><strong>C</strong></p> +<p>Football academies provide football education to students who are 21 +years old and below. A student must be at least 9 years old to join an +academy. However, some football clubs, such us Arsenal, have +pre-training programmes for even younger players. All the boys at an +academy continue their normal school education. It is important that +they are able to get good jobs in case they fail to become professional +footballers.</p> +<p><strong>D</strong></p> +<p>Players between the ages of 9 and 16 have to sign schoolboy forms. +They sign a new contract every two years. When the player turns 16, the +academy decides if they are going to offer the player a place on their +Youth Training Scheme. Each year, the best players receive a +scholarship. This gives them free football training and an academic +education.</p> +<p><strong>E</strong></p> +<p>In a football academy, players attend training sessions in the +afternoon on weekdays, and in the morning at weekends. On Sundays, they +don’t train. They play matches against other academy teams. The football +academies also encourage their players to take up other sports such as +gymnastics or basketball.</p> +<p><strong>F</strong></p> +<p>FC Barcelona's football academy, La Masia, is one of the best +football academies in the world. Located in Barcelona, Spain, La Masia +has over 300 young players. Famous footballers and coaches such as +Lionel Messi, Pep Guardiola and Ces Fabregas are graduates of La Masia. +Many people think that Barcelona’s success in the football world is due +to the excellent training programme provided at La Masia. Today, FC +Barcelona has academies in other parts of the world including Egypt, +Japan, America and Dubai.</p> +<p><em><strong>Questions 11 to 15</strong></em></p> +<p><em><strong>The Reading passage has 6 paragraphs, +A-F.</strong></em></p> +<p><em><strong>Read the following headings 1 to 6 and choose a suitable +title for each paragraph.
