Unit 1 : David Beckham Football Superstar youth training scheme by Manchester United. Finally in 199 David got to play for Manchester United s first team, in which he became a star player. But David Beckham did not always please his fans. Famously, in 1998, when he was playing in the England team against Argentina in the World Cup, he received a red card and was sent off. The fans blamed Beckham s behaviour for the English team losing the game and their chance to win the World Cup. Newspapers said he was spoilt and needed to grow up. But Beckham could not stay out of favour forever, and finally he was forgiven by the English fans and the media. There is no doubt that David Beckham is considered a part of the British way of life, and an illustration of this is that his name was used in a popular film title: Bend It Like Beckham released in 00. The film tells of a girl called Jess who belongs to a traditional Indian family living in Britain. Her parents want her to study hard, get a good job but ultimately marry and be a good wife. But Jess is crazy about football and secretly joins a football team. There is an enormous fuss when her family finds out because they think football is not a suitable thing for a girl to do.

One critic said: Mr Beckham should be pub advertising the Japan proud to have his name on such a great film. v.brazil game in the 006 World Cup 1 0 6 7 8 9 5 11 1 1 1 0 16 17 18 19 5 1 0 6 7 Manchester United マンチェスター ユナイテッド イギリスのプレミアリーグに長年所属する強 豪 1878 年創設 Real Madrid レアル マドリード スペインのスペインリーグに長年所属する強 8 9 豪 190 年創設 the Spice Girls スパイス ガールズ 90 年代後半に世界の音楽シーンを席巻し た女性バンド Posh Spiceヴィクトリアの愛称 意味は 高級なスパイス advertising world 広告業界 first team 一軍 illustration 例証 advert 広告 massive 大きな youth training scheme 若手育成プログラム be sent off 退場させられる spoil 甘やかす out of favour 不評で Bend It Like Beckham ベッカムに恋して 00 年 日本は 00 年 公開 のイギリス映画 直訳すると ベッカムのように キックを 曲げろ enormous fuss 大騒ぎ ultimately 最終的に fit in with に溶け込む 0 1 5
