Let's Read
Uram wanted to know more about football. He checked internet sites, and found the following article.

Boys, men, and even women play football everywhere. They play it at schools, in parks, and on quiet streets.
How did football begin? No one knows. Where did it start? Many people believe that it started in England hundreds of years ago. The men of one village tried to kick a ball to the middle of the other village. The men of the other village tried to do the same. They did it just for fun. All the men in the villages played! Sometimes hundreds of people played at one time. The match went on all day, and sometimes even for two days.
Today football is very different. There are eleven players on each team. They play for about an hour and a half. They take a break in the middle of the game.
