Why Do You Enjoy Your Sport?

1.       Harry’s sport: mountain climbing.

I like a challenge, and getting away from the city, so a few years ago I started climbing. I go out with a club, because it’s safer than going alone. I’m getting much better at working out the best route up a mountain and I never thought I’d be able to do that! And I’ve made some new friends through the club, too.

2.       Mary’s sport: cycling.

You can go cycling on your own, but I prefer to go out with other people from my cycle club. It gives me a good reason to keep going, even when I’m starting to feel tired. Some people do a lot of speed cycling, so that they lose weight, but I prefer to go more slowly and enjoy myself at the same time.

3.       Trevor’s sport: snowboarding.

I love speed and excitement, so snowboarding is the perfect sport for me. It’s really demanding, but I love it. My goal is to take part in professional races. We don’t get much snow where I live, so every day I go on holiday to a winter sports resort, usually with a friend who also likes snowboarding, and we practice really hard.

Trevor enjoys their sport because he _______________

A.   likes visiting other places.

B.    is motivated by doing the sport in a group.   

C.    has to practice daily.  

D.   can do it on their own way.

E.    wants to enter competitions.       

F.     has to concentrate on what’s happening.           

G.   is developing an unexpected skills.

H.   is losing weight.                                 

It’s really exciting to rush down a snowy mountain. But be careful – it’s a rather dangerous activity.

For me this is the most exciting water sport. If you do try it, you’ll find muscles you never knew you had; and you’ll have a lot of fun.

It’s a real thrill to go around the track at the highest speed you can imagine, but of course this sport is for those who like danger.
