题目

阅读理解 The first time I realized that I had a love for sports competitions was during the Field Day(室外运动会)in elementary school. Small for my age. and more of a bookworm than a sports enthusiast, I had suffered that special shame of being picked last for various gym teams. The Field Day, which focused on individual skills, was different. In the Softball Throw(女子棒球) event, I got my first taste of sporting victory. I put it down to my first coach, my father. He bought us all baseball gloves and hats, and in the warm months, we spent hours playing catch. Come fall, our backyard football games began with passing practice. Once I got to sixth grade, the entire students were assigned to either the Red or the While team. Throughout the year, we competed against each other in various games and exercises for points. I eventually became president of The Committee of Games, increasing my competitive fever. However, in girls' sports games at my school. I was no star. During the weekends at home, playing tennis, skating, skiing and biking were simply normal things we did. Magazines were also quite popular for us teens. These regularly featured articles on physical exercise. Somehow, my college roommate and I took up the habit of completing the Royal Canadian Air Force (RCAF) exercise every day, a sweaty body building practice that continued into my marriage, when we had no spare funds to use to join a gym. So, though it shocked some of our friends, the early foundation evolved in adulthood into a sports and fitness focus, which was considered essential even on vacation. I still love reading and the arts, too. As far as I'm considered, life is the richest with my feet in both worlds. （1） What does the author mean by saying "being picked last for various gym teams" in paragraph 2? A .
