3 What Sports Do They Do? Three people (Sandra, Jess and Thomas) are speaking about their favourite sports. Your task is to read the texts and guess the sports. Sandra: “There are three reasons why I prefer this sport. Firstly, you can play it inside as well

as outside so you are not limited by the weather, not at all. Even though it is a team sport, you

can play it without the team as well. Officially, it is not an individual sport but when you have

time and feel like playing, you can take a ball and play. The third reason why I like this sport is

that it is not very expensive. You do not need any special equipment. To do the sport, you

should wear comfortable sports clothes and shoes – trainers. You also need a ball and a

basket to throw the ball into.”

Jess: “I do this sport every day in the morning. I do it because it helps me feel relaxed. As

regards the equipment, you do not need any special equipment. It is good to wear sports

clothes. You do not even need any shoes, really! Some people prefer to be barefoot while

doing this sport. You should also have a special mat. It is very good to listen to some relaxing

music as well. You can do this sport at home whenever you have a spare moment or you can

go to a sport club and join a group of people who are also interested in this sport.”

Thomas: “Like every sport, my favourite sport has some advantages as well as

disadvantages. The big advantage is that it is very fast, it is a great fat burner and I would

definitely recommend this sport to those people who are on a diet and would like to lose

some weight. On the other hand, there are some disadvantages, too. Firstly, you are very

limited by the weather as you can do it only outside. Secondly, it is also quite expensive. You

need to buy special skates and I would also recommend to buy knee, elbow and hand

protectors and a safety helmet as this sport is also quite dangerous.”

2 The Olympic Games Read the text below and answer the questions about the Olympic Games. The modern Olympic Games were inspired by the ancient Olympic Games. The ancient Olympic Games took place1 in Olympia in Greece from the 8th century BC to the 4th century AD. The founder2 of the modern Olympic Games was Baron Pierre de Coubertin. The modern Olympic Games include the Summer and Winter Olympic Games which alternate every two years. The Olympic motto is Citius, Altius, Fortius, which is Latin for Faster, Higher, Stronger. The Olympic symbols are the Olympic hymn, the Olympic flag, the Olympic flame, the Olympic medals. The Olympic hymn is an official song of the Olympic Games, which is played when the Olympic flag is raised. The Olympic flag has a white background and there are five rings in the centre. The five rings represent the five continents of the world united by sport and the Olympism. The Olympic flame is lit4 at the ancient site of Olympia by women wearing ancient-style robes and using a curved mirror and the sun. The Olympic Torch5 is then passed from runner to runner from the ancient site of Olympia to the Olympic stadium in the hosting city. The flame is then kept alight until the Games have concluded. The Olympic Torch relay6 represents a continuation from the ancient Olympic Games to the modern Olympics. The Olympic medals are gold, silver and bronze. The Summer Olympic Games in 2012 were organized in England (London) and the Winter Olympic Games in 2014 were organized in Russia (Sochi).

cucumber, bodybuilding, couch potato , French fries , salty meals , fruit, yoghurts, fatty dairy products , pizza , olive oil Hello, my name is Becky , I am 21 years old and I come from Brighton , which is a lovely city by the sea located in the south of England. I must say I am really into a healthy lifestyle now. But when I was younger, I did not use to lead a healthy lifestyle. In fact, I used to be quite overweight. I had a very bad diet and I used to eat junk food every day. I never exercised either, and I think that I was generally quite miserable with my life. However, I am different now and two years ago I started to lead a healthy lifestyle. At first, it was difficult for me to avoid eating junk food but I soon came to love healthy food. Nowadays, I mostly eat fruit and vegetables. They are so delicious and I have actually become quite a good cook , too! My mum thinks it is great, as I did not use to be any good in the kitchen at all. Yes, I am definitely much happier with my lifestyle now. A healthy lifestyle is not only about eating habits, though, but it is also connected with sports. I used to be a couch potato but now I enjoy doing sports three times a week, mainly yoga , pilates and swimming .
