This is an incorrect choice. The fan does not mention "rebelliousness" as one of the reasons she likes rugby players. On the contrary, she likes the fact that the players are respectful of authority - the opposite of rebellious - since she admires the fact that they never argue with the referee (or spit or swear)!
This is an incorrect choice. The fan does not mention "intelligence" as one of the characteristics she likes in rugby players.
This is a correct choice. The fan says that the players are "courageous", or "brave".
This is a correct choice. The fan says that the players "look good in those tight shirts", and that in fact one of the main reasons she goes to the games is to look at the players' muscles.
This is an incorrect choice. The fan in fact says she likes the fact that rugby players do not "spit or swear". To "swear", in this context, means to use offensive or dirty words. Another term for these words is "swear words".
This is a correct choice. The fan says that the players "never argue with the referee." The "referee" is the symbol of authority at a rugby match, since he makes sure all the rules are enforced. Since rugby players do not "argue" with or "question" the referee's decisions, they are therefore respectful of authority.
