體育運(yùn)動(dòng)開(kāi)始于何時(shí)?如果體育運(yùn)動(dòng)的本質(zhì)就是游戲的話，我們就可以宣稱體育運(yùn)動(dòng)比人類古老，因?yàn)檎缥覀兯^察到的，野獸也進(jìn)行嬉戲。

Dogs and cats wrestle and play ball games. Fishes and birds dance. The apes have simple, pleasurable games.
狗和貓會(huì)扭抱玩球，魚(yú)和鳥(niǎo)翩翩起舞，猿類會(huì)進(jìn)行一些簡(jiǎn)單的、愉快的游戲。

特別是幼獸,它們翻筋斗、追逐、奔跑、扭打、模仿、嬉笑(或者看起來(lái)是),直到愉快地精疲力盡。
Their play, and ours, appears to serve no other purpose than to give pleasure to the players, and apparently, to remove us temporarily from the anguish of life in earnest.
他們的玩耍，同我們的一樣，似乎并沒(méi)有別的目的而只是給游戲者以愉悅，暫時(shí)把我們從嚴(yán)肅生活的痛苦中拉出來(lái)。

  - ---- can be traced to a play impulse which, paradoxically, we see most purely enjoyed by young beasts and children.
  - 可以追溯到游戲的沖動(dòng)。但令人不解的是我們看到只有幼獸和小孩子才最純粹地享受著這種沖動(dòng)。
  - Our sports, in this rather happy, nonfatalistic view of human nature, are more splendid creations of the nondatable, transspecies play impulse.
  - 從這種比較豁達(dá)和非宿命的人性觀來(lái)看，我們的運(yùn)動(dòng)是超時(shí)代、跨物種的輝煌的創(chuàng)造。
