1.1. Sports in Great Britain
People all over the world are fond of sports and games. Many sports and games which are nowadays played all over the world were invented in Britain. Football is the best example, but among others are horse-racing, tennis, golf, cricket and rowing. The most popular games in England are football, cricket and tennis. Football in Britain is played from late August until early May. It is played all over the country. The Cup Final is the greatest event of the football year.
It is played at Wembley Stadium, near London, in May. More than a hundred thousand fans come from all parts of the country to watch it. The stadium is always full.
Cricket is considered to be the English national game. It is among the most popular summer sports. Cricket is played in schools, colleges and universities, and in most towns and villages from late April to the end of September.
The British also like to play golf and tennis. Tennis tournaments at Wimbledon are known all over the world. They are held every summer in June. Wimbledon is a suburb south of London.
English people are very fond of horses. But horse-riding is an expensive sport. It is considered to be an aristocratic sport. Britain is also famous for motor-car racing, dog-racing, boat-racing.
There are many other sports which have great popularity in Britain, they are: cycling, chess, athletics, basketball, volleyball and rugby. The most popular rowing event is the boat race between the teams from the universities of Oxford and Cambridge, rowed on the River Thames, near London, in March or April each year, which attracts large crowds of people.
You can sometimes hear that there are no winter sports in England because there is not much snow in winter. Of course, in England it’s not always cold enough to ski or skate, but winter is a good season for hunting or fishing.
The British do not play ice-hockey much, but they play hockey on grass. It may be a surprise to many Ukrainians that in England hockey is usually a women’s or girl’s game. Men also play field hockey, which is then called “men’s hockey”, and the game is then faster and rougher.
English people take part in many kinds of sports or watch TV sports programmes. The British are great sports-lovers, so when they are neither playing, nor watching games, they like to talk about them.

Read the text and say what you have learned about Olympic Games.
4.1. Olympic Games
The world’s greatest international sports games are the Olympic Games. The Olympic idea means friendship among the people of the world.
The five Olympic rings are the symbol of the unity of five continents. They are
of five colours – red, yellow, blue, green and black – on a white field
of the Olympic Flag. The flag of any country has at least one of these colours. The Olympic Games have a very long history. They began more than two thousand years ago in Greece and took place every four years at Olympia.
All the cities in Greece sent their best athletes to take part in them. The strongest athletes competed in running, jumping, wrestling, throwing the discus and boxing. The games were very popular, and thousands of Greek came to watch them. It was a tradition to stop wars for the time of the Olympic Games, and people lived in peace. The competitions lasted for five days. When the champions came back home, the people greeted them with flowers. In ancient Greece
the games were for men only. Women couldn’t take part in the competitions or even watch them at the stadium.
For a long time, from 394 till 1896, there were no Olympic Games. For about one thousand and five hundred years nothing more was heard of them. The first modern Olympic Games started again in Athens in 1896. Since then the best athletes of the world have met every four years, as it was in Greece many, many years ago. During the two world wars there were no Olympic Games because they cannot take place in a country which is at war. The ancient Greeks had no winter sports. Only in 1924 the first winter Olympic Games took place in France. Now we have summer and winter Olympic Games every four years in different countries. The capitals of many countries have been Olympic cities – Athens, Paris, London, Berlin, Helsinki, Rome, Tokyo, Mexico, Moscow and others.
