Sport in my life
Healthy mind in a healthy body. Many people are moving to
this motto : I will also include a number of them. I do not imagine my life
without sport. I love all kinds of sports and I am aware of some sportsmen ,
but most of all I love the basketball : Really very beautiful sport basketball.
It differs from all sports and its laws
should not have to wait 90 minutes like Football to see a free kick just have
to wait and see beautiful counterattack 24 seconds or Dunks. As other sport has
its legends such as basketball which are Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant,
Lebron James, Toni
Parker and broader. They left their names in
history of basketball. Of 5 years
I've been involved with professional basketball and my team has achieved a lot
of success. For me the basketball is the best sport in the world.
Topic 2. Sports and Games: Healthy Style of Living
- Do you go in for any kind of sports?
- I go in for basketball at our school and I approve of a
healthy style of living. Every morning I do physical exercises. In addition to
playing basketball our coach also organizes mini competitions in running and
jumping.
- Do you think that going in for sport makes a person
stronger both in body and character?
- Yes, of course, besides gaining physical strength a person
becomes more purposeful, firm in character and hard-working. No sportsman can
make any progress without these characteristic features. But from my point of
view going in for big sport and striving for new records may have destructive
influence on health. If a person has a great ambition to become a champion or
set up a new record, he will have to train for 6-8 hours a day which may
later cause heart problems.
- What kinds of sports and sport games are included in the
summer Olympic games?
- First of all, I would like to mention athletics which is
considered to be the Queen of sports. Various sport events are included in
athletics: running different distances, jumping, throwing a discus, javelin and
a hammer, jogging and so on. The next kind of sports is gymnastics which is a
very difficult kind of sport. Other kinds of summer sports are: swimming,
wrestling, weight lifting, boxing, horse riding, cycling, yachting, archery,
shooting, fencing, rowing and diving. I can mention such sport games as:
basketball, volley-ball, hand-ball, water-polo, grass-hockey, lawn tennis,
table tennis, football.
What winter kind of sports and games do you know?
In winter Olympic games the sportsman compete in the
following events: figure skating, skiing, skating, ice-hockey, slalom,
biathlon, sledging. From my point of view the most beautiful kinds of
sport are figure skating and art gymnastics which are combination of art and
sport, grace and strength, freedom of beautiful motions combined with music. On
the other hand, I don’t like boxing, wrestling and weightlifting which are
demonstrations of rude strength only. I am especially against such sport games
as American football and rugby. These sport games provoke rudeness, cruelty and
wickedness.
Different nations have kind of sports which are popular only
in their own countries. For example, sumo i Japan, Rodeo in Spain and Mexico,
cricket and fishing in England, gorodki in Russia, Sabanduy in Kazakhstan and
Kokh in Armenia.
