Answer the questions. Sport is very important in our life

Sports.

Sport is very important in our life. It is popular among young and old people. Many people do morning exercises and train themselves in different sections and take part in sport competitions.

Sport helps to make people strong, brave and cheerful. We can go in for sports in winter and in summer, indoors and outdoors.

Sport helps people to keep in good health. It is very useful to walk a lot, to play active games, to spend a lot of time outdoors in the fresh air.

Some people like sports too, but they only watch sport games, listen to sports news. They prefer reading interesting stories about sportsmen. But they don’t go in for sports.

Physical training is an important subject at school. Pupils have got physical training lessons twice a week. Boys and girls usually play volleyball and basketball at their lessons.

There are some popular kinds of sport in our country: football, volleyball, basketball, hockey, gymnastics, skiing, skating, figure skating.

Many kinds of sports are included into the Olympic Games. The Olympic Games are the greatest international sports games in the world. They have an interesting and long history. They began more than two thousand years ago in Greece. They were only for men at that time. The Olympic Games were a holiday. They are always a great festival of sport, health, peace and friendship.
