Câu 6. V. Read the passage below and choose the best complete:
No other sporting event captures the world's imagination like the FIFA World Cup. Ever since the first
tentative competition in Uruguay in 1930, FIFA's flagship has constantly grown in popularity and prestige.
A group of visionary French football administrators, led in the 1920s by the innovative Jules Rimet, are
credited with the original idea of bringing the world's strongest national football teams together to compete
for the title of World Champions. The original gold trophy bore Jules Rimet's name and was contested three
times in the 1930s, before the Second World War put a 12-year stop to the competition.
When it resumed, the FIFA World Cup rapidly advanced to its undisputed status as the greatest single
sporting event of the modern world. Held since 1958 alternately in Europe and the Americas, the World Cup
broke new ground with the Executive Committee's decision in May 1996 to select Korea and Japan as cohosts for the 2002 edition.
Today, the FIFA World Cup holds the entire global public under its spell. An accumulated audience of
over 37 billion people watched the France 98 tournament, including approximately 1.3 billion for the final
alone, while over 2.7 million people flocked to watch the 64 matches in the French stadia.
After all these years and so many changes, however, the main focus of the FIFA World Cup remains
the same the glistening golden trophy, which is the embodiment of every footballer's ambition.
