很多项目,无论游戏规则还是所需的运动器材,从小玩到老没什么区别,而网球似乎是个例外。一个六七岁的孩子已经可以具备初步的运动天赋,他或许可以在游泳池里一口气游个二三十米,或许能够在乒乓球桌旁推挡十几个回合,然而要说他能在宽大的网球场上自如地奔跑,潇洒地挥舞起沉重的球拍迎击时速高达100公里的发球,那是任谁都不会相信的。 Many items, whether the rules of the game or the required sports equipment, play no difference from small to old, and tennis seems to be the exception. A six- or seven-year-old could already have a preliminary athleticism. He might swim twenty or thirty meters in the swimming pool at a stretch, perhaps pushing a dozen rounds at a ping pong table.
