I Love Sport
Sport is one of the best pastimes. It is an important part of every person’s life. Some people play football, some go swimming, others do martial arts. Those, who don’t like physical exercises, can play chess, as it’s also a type of intellectual sport. As for me, I love watching all kinds of sports, but I play only a few. Let me introduce myself. My name is Alex and I’m 15 years old. At the moment I study at the 9th grade and I don’t get much free time. However, when I’m free, I try to spend my time doing my favourite activities. It includes playing football, ping-pong, basketball, darts and some martial arts. Depending on weather conditions, I also go swimming, skating or skiing. In my opinion, such pastimes are not only health-beneficial, but also keep a person in good shape. I’m lucky to be living in the largest city of our country. Moscow offers a great number of sports facilities, such as stadiums, swimming pools, ice-rinks, tennis courts, football fields, various gyms and fitness clubs. Even our school offers several sports grounds. We can play many indoor and outdoor games there. Sometimes the schools of my district hold sports competitions. If I get a chance, I always try to participate in such events. For example, last year our school took the first place for football and I was also in the team. My parents came to watch the game and they were very proud of me. I simply can’t imagine my life without sport. Doing any type of sports is useful both for physical condition and for mental. When I started playing football, for example, I felt full of energy, self-confidence and pride. I also became rather competitive, which is a good feature if you want to win.
Я люблю спорт
Спорт является одним из лучших видов времяпровождения. Это важная часть жизни каждого человека. Некоторые люди играют в футбол, другие занимаются плаванием или боевыми искусствами. Те, кто не любят физических нагрузок, могут поиграть в шахматы, так как это также считается интеллектуальным видом спорта. Что касается меня, я люблю смотреть все виды спорта, но играю только в некоторые из них. Позвольте мне представиться. Меня зовут Алексей и мне 15 лет. На данный момент я учусь в 9 классе и у меня немного свободного времени. Однако, когда я свободен, я стараюсь тратить свое время на любимые занятия. К ним относятся футбол, настольный теннис, баскетбол, дартс и некоторые боевые искусства. В зависимости от погодных условий, я также хожу на плавание, катаюсь на коньках или лыжах. На мой взгляд, такое времяпрепровождение не только полезно для здоровья, но и поддерживает человека в хорошей форме. Мне повезло, так как я живу в самом крупном городе нашей страны. Москва предлагает большое количество спорт площадок, например, стадионов, плавательных бассейнов, катков, теннисных кортов, футбольных полей, различных спортзалов и фитнес-клубов. Даже в нашей школе есть несколько спортивных площадок. Мы можем играть в различные игры, как в здании, так и на улице. Иногда школы моего района проводят спортивные соревнования. Если я могу, то всегда стараюсь участвовать в подобных мероприятиях. Например, в прошлом году наша школа заняла первое место по футболу, и я был тоже в команде. Мои родители пришли посмотреть на игру, и они очень гордились мной. Я просто не могу представить свою жизнь без спорта. Заниматься любым видом спорта полезно как для физического, так и для душевного здоровья. Например, когда я начал играть в футбол, то почувствовал прилив сил, уверенности и гордости. Во мне также появился дух соперничества, что является хорошей чертой, если вы хотите побеждать.
