EN： The compound adjective '41-year-old' uses hyphens to join a number and a singular noun ('year') to modify another noun ('Ronaldo'). Note that 'year' remains singular in this hyphenated modifier form.
中文： 复合形容词“41-year-old”（41岁的）使用连字符将数字和单数名词“year”连接起来，用以修饰另一个名词（此处为“Ronaldo”）。请注意，在这种连字符修饰语结构中，“year”必须保持单数形式，不可加 s。

EN： The phrasal verb 'prepare for' means to make things ready for something that will happen in the future. It is followed by a noun phrase representing the upcoming event.

EN： Cristiano Ronaldo is one of the greatest football players in history. Representing Portugal, his appearance in World Cup tournaments has always been a focus of global sports media. The mention of his age (41 years old) in 2026 highlights his extraordinary longevity and dedication in professional sports, as very few outfield players compete at the highest level at this age.
中文： 克里斯蒂亚诺·罗纳尔多（C罗）是历史上最伟大的足球运动员之一。代表葡萄牙出征的他，在世界杯赛事中的表现一直是全球体育媒体的焦点。文中提到他在 2026 年时已 41 岁，这凸显了他在职业运动中超凡的常青状态与奉献精神，因为极少有非守门员球员能在该年龄仍维持在顶尖水平竞争。
EN： Noun Clause as Object: The conjunction 'that' introduces a noun clause ('that this would be his final tournament for his country') which functions as the direct object of the transitive verb 'confirmed'. In English, 'that' in an object clause is often optional, but it is included here for formal clarity.
中文： 名词性从句作宾语：连接词“that”引导一个名词性从句（that this would be his final tournament for his country），在句中作为及物动词“confirmed”的直接宾语。在英语中，引导宾语从句的“that”常可省略，此处保留以示正式与清晰。
She believed that they would win the championship.
她相信他们会赢得冠军。
EN： Past Future Tense (Would + Base Verb): The modal verb 'would' is used here as the past future tense (the past equivalent of 'will'). Since the main verb 'confirmed' is in the past tense, the subsequent action in the noun clause must also shift to a past perspective, changing 'will be' to 'would be'.
中文： 过去将来时（Would + 动词原形）：助动词“would”在此处用作过去将来时（即“will”的过去式）。由于主句动词“confirmed”为过去式，其后名词性从句中描述的未来事件也必须转化为过去视角，因此将“will be”改为“would be”。
He promised that he would call me the next day.
他承诺他第二天会打电话给我。
EN： In international football (soccer), representing one's 'country' in a 'tournament' like the World Cup is considered the pinnacle of a player's career. For a legendary player like Ronaldo, announcing the final tournament for his country (Portugal) marks the emotional end of an era, reflecting both national pride and the inevitable passage of time in professional sports.
中文： 在国际足球中，代表自己的“国家”参加像世界杯这样的“大赛”，被视为球员职业生涯的巅峰。对于像罗纳尔多这样的传奇球员来说，宣布这是他为国家（葡萄牙）效力的最后一场大赛，标志着一个时代充满情感的终结，这既反映了国家荣誉感，也体现了职业运动中无可避免的新旧交替。
EN： Non-defining relative clauses (using 'which') add extra, non-essential information about a noun (in this case, 'every match') and are separated from the main clause by a comma.
中文： 非限定性关系从句（使用“which”）用于对先行词（此处为“every match”）进行补充说明，提供非必要的额外信息，并在主句与从句之间使用逗号隔开。
He decided to buy the red car, which was surprisingly cheap.
他决定买那辆红色的车，那辆车出乎意料地便宜。
EN： The passive voice construction 'be filled with' is used to describe a state where one thing contains a large amount of something else, often abstract feelings or physical objects.
中文： 被动语态结构“be filled with”（充满了……）用于描述某物含有大量其他事物（通常是抽象情感或具体物品）的状态。
Her eyes were filled with tears of joy.
她的双眼充满了喜悦的泪水。
EN： The sentence captures the global phenomenon of the World Cup, where football (soccer) transcends sports to become a deeply emotional cultural event. For legendary players like Ronaldo, their final appearances represent the end of an era, uniting fans worldwide in shared nostalgia and respect.
中文： 这句话捕捉了世界杯这一全球性现象。在世界杯期间，足球超越了体育本身，成为一场充满深厚情感的文化盛事。对于像罗纳尔多这样的传奇球星来说，他们的最后一次亮相代表着一个时代的终结，将全球球迷凝聚在共同的怀旧与敬意之中。
EN： Noun clauses introduced by 'that' function as the direct object of a verb (here, 'knew'). The conjunction 'that' is often omitted in informal speech but is kept here for clarity. Because the main verb 'knew' is in the past tense, the verb in the noun clause shifts from 'can' to 'could' to maintain backshift/tense agreement.
中文： 由“that”引导的名词从句在此作为动词（此处为“knew”）的直接宾语。在口语中“that”常被省略，但此处保留以求清晰。因为主句动词“knew”为过去式，名词从句中的动词也由“can”转为过去式“could”，以符合时态一致性（时态后移）。
She believed that the project could succeed with more time.
她相信如果有更多时间，这个项目是有可能成功的。
EN： The determiner 'each' is used with singular countable nouns (like 'game') to refer to all members of a group individually. It takes a singular verb ('could be', which is modal and doesn't change, but would be 'is' or 'was' in non-modal forms).
中文： 限定词“each”（每个）与单数可数名词（如“game”）连用，用来个别指称群体中的每一个成员。其后须接单数动词（此处“could be”为助动词不受影响，但若非助动词则须用单数动词如“is”或“was”）。
Each student has a unique talent.
每个学生都有独特的才能。
EN： The phrasal verb 'play against' is used to describe competing with an opponent in a game or sport. It is followed by the noun representing the opponent.
中文： 动词短语“play against”（与……对阵/比赛）用于描述在比赛或运动中与对手竞争。其后接代表对手的名词。

EN： Prepositional phrases of place/context: 'in the group stage' uses the preposition 'in' to denote a specific phase or division within a tournament, followed by 'of the tournament' to specify the larger event.
中文： 表示空间/情境的介词短语：“in the group stage”使用介词“in”来表示锦标赛中的特定阶段或分组，后接“of the tournament”以明确指出是哪项大型赛事。

Matches against emerging football nations like Uzbekistan showcase the global reach of the tournament.

EN： The expression 'X to Y' is used in sports to express the score of a match, where 'to' acts as a preposition indicating the ratio or comparison between the two scores.
中文： “X to Y”的表达方式在体育运动中用于表示比赛比分，其中“to”作为介词，表示两个比分之间的比例或对比（即几比几）。
Our team won the game three to zero.
我们队以三比零赢得了比赛。
EN： In football (soccer) culture, expressing scores as 'X to Y' (e.g., 'five to one') is standard. The winning score is usually mentioned first when describing a victory, regardless of which team was home or away. Additionally, 'match' is the preferred term for a game of football in British English and international football contexts, rather than 'game'.
中文： 在足球文化中，将比分表示为“X to Y”（例如“five to one”，即五比一）是标准用法。在描述胜利时，通常会先说胜方的分数。此外，在英式英语和国际足球语境中，通常使用“match”来指代一场足球比赛，而非“game”。
EN： The preposition 'against' is used to indicate opposition or competition, commonly used in sports contexts to show who a team or player is competing against.

该队伍在十六强赛中被淘汰。
EN： The 'round of thirty-two' (or round of 32) is a single-elimination stage in major sports tournaments like the FIFA World Cup, where 32 teams compete to advance to the round of 16. In football, scoring a 'late goal' often brings dramatic tension as it occurs near the end of the match, sometimes deciding the outcome.
中文： “三十二强赛”（round of thirty-two）是世界杯等大型体育赛事中的单败淘汰赛阶段，晋级的32支球队在此争夺十六强席位。在足球运动中，在比赛尾声攻入“late goal”（比赛后期的进球）往往会带来戏剧性的紧张感，因为这时比赛接近尾声，时常能决定最终胜负。
EN： The noun clause (or content clause) introduced by 'that' functions as the direct object of the transitive verb 'proved'. The conjunction 'that' has no semantic meaning here and is often omitted in informal speech, but it serves to connect the main clause with the subordinate clause.
中文： 由“that”引导的名词从句（或称内容从句）在此作为及物动词“proved”的直接宾语。连接词“that”本身没有实际意义，在非正式口语中常被省略，但它起到了连接主句与从属子句的作用。
The scientist proved that the new theory was correct.
科学家证明了这项新理论是正确的。
EN： The word 'hungry' is used here metaphorically to mean having a strong desire or ambition for success, rather than a physical need for food. The phrase 'after all these years' is a prepositional phrase acting as an adverbial of time, emphasizing the long duration of his career.
中文： “hungry”一词在此处为比喻用法，意指对成功有着强烈的渴望或野心，而非生理上的饥饿。短语“after all these years”是一个介词短语，用作时间副词，强调他职业生涯历经的漫长岁月。

EN： The verb 'teach' can take a double object (ditransitive structure) or, as in this case, an indirect object ('us') followed by a noun clause introduced by 'that' acting as the direct object. The 'that-clause' functions as a noun, expressing the fact or lesson being taught.
中文： 动词“teach”（教导）可以接双宾语结构，在此句中，间接宾语为“us”（我们），而由“that”引导的名词性从句则作为直接宾语。这个“that 从句”在句中起名词作用，用来表达所传授的道理或事实。

中文： 结构“not only A but also B”（不仅 A 而且 B）是关联连词。在本句中，“not only”用于对比两个名词性从句（“how you fight”与“what you win”），其中“but also”被省略或简化，用以强调奋斗的过程（如何战斗）才是定义伟大的关键，而非仅仅是最终的结果。
