What is sports?
Sports English: sports, gymnastics, sports culture, sports education, sports training, sports. Although sports has a long history, the word "sports" appeared relatively late. Because before the word "sports" appeared, countries all over the world called sports differently. What basic functions of school physical education reflect the significance of physical education? -Answer: A. Fitness function B. Educational function C. Entertainment function In ancient Greece, games, wrestling and gymnastics were listed as educational contents. From 17 to 18, hunting, swimming, mountain climbing, running and jumping were added to western education, but there was no unified name. At the end of 18, German J.C.F Gutz Jordan Mutch once classified and integrated these activities, which were collectively called "gymnastics". /kloc-in the 9th century, on the one hand, a new gymnastics system was formed in Germany, which was widely spread in Europe and America; On the other hand, many new sports have emerged one after another. In the school, more and more sports beyond the original scope of gymnastics have been gradually developed, and a new concept of "physical education is education through physical activities" has been established. Therefore, for quite a period of time, the words "gymnastics" and "sports" coexisted, mixed with each other and quite confused. It was not until the beginning of the 20th century that they gradually became known as "sports" internationally. Sports in China has a long history, but "sports" is a foreign word. It first appeared in the early and late 20th century. At that time, a large number of overseas students from China went to Japan to study. From 190 1 to 1906, there were more than 13000 people, many of whom were studying physical education. After returning home, they introduced the word "sports" to China. In China, the word "sports" first appeared in 1904. When it comes to the comprehensive education of children in kindergartens in Hubei, it says, "Keep healthy and vigorous, and develop sports bases." 1905 also mentioned in "Teaching Introduction of Hunan Mengyang College": "Sports Kung Fu and gymnastics develop on the surface, while music and songs develop inside." In China, the earliest sports group was the "Shanghai Xishi Commercial Sports Association" in Shanghai from 65438 to 0906. 1907 Qiu Jin, a famous female revolutionary in China, also founded a sports meeting in Shaoxing. In the same year, the word "movement" began to appear in the memorials of the Qing Dynasty. After the Revolution of 1911, the word "movement" was gradually used. 1762, Rousseau published Emile in France. He used the word "sports" to describe the process of physical education such as physical maintenance, training and training for Amir. Because this book strongly criticized the church education at that time and caused great repercussions in the world, the word "movement" also spread around the world. From here, we can clearly see that the word "sports" comes from the word "education", and its earliest meaning refers to a special field in the education system. By the19th century, the word "sports" was widely used in developed countries in the world. Due to China's closed-door policy, it was not until the middle of the 9th century that German and Swedish gymnastics was introduced to China, and then the Qing government opened a "gymnastics class" in the "foreign school". Around 1902, some students studying in Japan came from Japan with the word "sports". With the continuous influx of western culture into China, the content of school physical education has also developed from a single gymnastics to a diversified one, and basketball, track and field, football and so on have appeared in the classroom. Many people of insight suggested that the school physical education class should not be called gymnastics class, and the concept level must be made clear. 1923 "Gymnastics" was officially changed to "physical education class" in the Outline of Primary and Secondary School Curriculum (Draft). Since then, the word "sports" has become a special term to mark school sports. ? The word "sports" also has an evolutionary process in meaning. When it was first introduced to China, it referred to sports, which appeared as a part of education and was an educational process related to various activities to maintain and develop the body, which was consistent with the international understanding of "sports". With the progress of society and the continuous development of sports, its purpose and content have gone far beyond the original category of "sports", and the concept of sports has also been interpreted in a broad and narrow sense. When used broadly, it generally refers to sports, including physical education, competitive sports and physical exercise; When used in a narrow sense, it refers to sports in general. In recent years, many scholars have put forward some explanations for the concept of "sports", but the consistent explanation is that "sports is a social and cultural phenomenon or educational process with physical activity as the medium, seeking individual physical and mental health and all-round development as the direct purpose, and cultivating perfect social citizens as the ultimate goal". This definition of sports not only explains the essential attribute of sports, but also points out the category of sports, which is different from its adjacent or similar social phenomena. However, the concept of sports is not static. With the development and progress of society, the understanding of sports will also develop.
