Sport and Games

 

 

People all over the world are fond of sports and games.

That is one of the things in which people of every na­tionality and class are united. All kinds of physical exercises are very useful to make our bodies strong enough to keep ourselves fit and healthy. The most popular outdoor winter sports are shooting, hunting, hockey, in the countries where the weather is frosty and there is much snow — skating, skiing and tobogganing. Some people greatly enjoy figure-skating and ski-jumping. It's so nice to go to the skating-rink or to the forest on a frosty sunny day!

 

Summer affords excellent opportunities for swimming, boating, yacht­ing, cycling, gliding and many other sports. Among outdoor games football takes the first place in public interest; this game is played in all countries of the world. The other games that have firmly established themselves in favour in different countries are golf, lawn-tennis, cricket, volley-ball, basket-ball, and so on. Badminton is also very popular.

 

All the year round many people indulge in boxing, wrestling, athletics, gymnastics and track and field events. Scores of young girls and women go in for callisthenics. Over the last few years aerobics has become popular with young girls. It helps them to be slim, healthy and strong. The founder of this kind of sport was a well-known American actress Jane Fonda. Being a great enthusiast of aerobics she has been trying to initiate many young women from all over the world into this sport.

 

Among indoor games the most popular are billiards, table-tennis, draughts and some others, but the great international game is chess, of course. The results of chess tournaments are studied and discussed by thousands of en­thusiasts in different countries.

 

So we may say that sport is one of the things that makes people kin. To cut the long story short, I should admit that everyone must do all he can to be healthy. Physically inactive people get old earlier than those who have plenty of exercises. If you do daily exercises you feel refreshed, have a good posture, and that makes you feel good. I can add that good health is better than the best medicine. You have " A sound mind in a sound body, " as the old Latin saying goes. The English proverb " Sickness in the body brings sickness to the mind" expresses a similar idea, but from a different point of view.

Alan: Well, football and tennis are games, aren’t they? Swimming and rowing and mountain climbing are not games, are they? What is boxing? Is that a game or a sport?

Bob: Well, football and tennis are games. When we use the word “game”, we generally think of some kind of sport in which there are two sides or teams, the eleven men in a football team, for example, or fifteen, if it is Rugby football.

Alan: But what about boxing?

Bob: Boxing is a sport, but not a game. It is true, that we talk about boxing matches and football matches. You can say: “Do you play football? ” But if you ask about boxing, you must say: “ Do you box? ” or “ Are you a boxer? ”

Alan: Oh! I understand. Thank you. By the way, what is your favourite sport?

Bob: I like tennis, football and swimming most of all. And you?
