SPECTATOR SPORTS
A surprising number of popular spectator sports, for example football and baseball, (31) started in Europe or in the USA in the nineteenth century. This did not happen by (32) chance. It was the result of changes in the (33) way people lived in those places at that time. Until then more people lived in the country than in towns. They worked in small groups and had no (34) regular time off. All this changed, with the growth of factories and (35) industry in the nineteenth century, first in Europe and then in the USA. For the first time most people began to live in towns, and they (36) found themselves with regular free time. They had more (37) leisure time than ever before. This resulted in the need for the (38) organised entertainment. Suitable games I developed or were invented, (39) typically team games, in which the crowded could take sides and become involved. This gave people some of the entertainment they need in their free time. The (40) recent explosion in TV, with the introduction of satellite and cable channels, has caused an increase in (41) demand for sports as entertainment. The money TV has brought to games such as football, tennis and baseball (42) means, that spectator sports will certainly go on playing an important part in our lives.
