Most Favorite Sports - Volleyball 排球

History 历史

Volleyball is one of the world's most popular sports and is played by more than 800 million people on the planet at least once a week. The game of volleyball was invented in 1895 by William G. Morgan, a teacher at a YMCA in Holyoke, Massachusetts. He combined parts of tennis, baseball, basketball, and handball to create a new game to be played indoors by people who wanted less physical contact than basketball. Morgan borrowed the net from tennis and raised it six feet six inches above the floor, a little higher than an average man's head.

排球是世界上最受欢迎的运动之一，地球上有8亿多人每周至少打一次排球。排球运动是1895年由马萨诸塞州荷利克市基督教青年会的一位教师威廉 G 摩根发明的。他将网球、棒球、篮球和手球的各一部分结合起来，创造了一种新的运动，供那些不想像篮球那样有太多身体接触的人在室内玩。摩根从网球那里借来了球网的概念，把网抬高到离地6英尺6英寸（小编注：约1.98米）高，比一般人的个头高一点的高度。

Rules 规则

When volleyball was first invented, it was much different from the game today. You could have as many players as you wanted on each team. There were nine innings per game, with three outs per inning. There was also no limit on the number of hits of the ball on each side of the court. Here are the basic rules of volleyball today.

排球刚发明的时候，和今天的比赛大不相同。那时每支球队的球员数量不限。每场比赛有九局，连得三分为一局。球场两边的击球次数也没有限制。下面是当今排球的基本规则。

Volleyball is played by two teams of six players on a court divided by a net.

排球是由两队各六名队员在一个被网隔开的场地上进行的。

The object of the game is to send the ball over the net so that the opposing team cannot return the ball or prevent it from hitting the ground in their court.

比赛的目的是将球击过球网，使对方不能击回球，或防止球在自己的场地上触地。

Each team has three hits to attempt to return the ball.

每队只能击球三次。

The ball is put in play by a serve that is hit by the server over the net to the opponent.

每次开始都是由发球员将球发到对方场地而开始的。

When the receiving team wins a volley, it gains the right to serve, and the players rotate one position clockwise.

当接球一方赢得一个回合，他们就获得发球权，而球员就要按顺时针方向移动一个位置。

When the serving team wins a volley, it wins a point and the right to continue serving.

当发球方赢得回合，他们得一分并继续保有发球权。

A game is played to 21 points or some other agreed-upon number. The team that wins the best two out of three games wins the match.

一局比赛21分或其它双方商定的比分。三局两胜一方获胜。
