(After the presentation pupils answer the questions).
 

P.1. What kinds of sports are dangerous?

P.2. What sports do a great number of people like?

P.3. What do athletes need for certain sports? What equipment?

T: OK. Some people think that dangerous sports should be banned?

What is your opinion?

P.1. I think that dangerous sports should be banned because a sportsman may lose his health and even life.

P.2. In my opinion almost every kind of sport has some risk. For example going for running or figure skating you may injure your leg. I think gymnastics, cycling, skiing are dangerous sports too. Sportsmen shouldn’t take unnecessary risks.

         P.3.My point of view is that nobody can force you to go in for dangerous sports. Everyone makes their own choice. Some people can’t live without excitement. Dangerous sports give them that feeling. I think dangerous sports shouldn’t be banned.

T: I see your opinions differ.

P.4.Speaking about sport we should mention that there is a great number of different physical activities, which are especially beneficial for our health. Among them are exercising, walking, jogging, going to the gym, aerobics, shaping, swimming and other kinds of physical activities.

I’d love to say that they make us feel full of energy all the time and free us from tension and stress.

Moreover exercises help us to lose our weight, to relax and to keep fit and healthy.

We should always remember an English proverb which tells us that good health is better than wealth, because wealth is nothing without health.
