1. Sport is very important to us. It is pop­ular among young and old people. Many people do morning exercises, jog in the morning or train in different clubs and take part in sports competitions.

2. Other people like sports too but they only watch sports games and listen to sports news. They prefer reading inter­esting stories about sportsmen but they don't go in for sports.

3. Physical training is an important sub­ject at school. Pupils have physical train­ing lessons twice a week. Boys and girls play volley-ball, basket-ball, football at the les­sons. There is a sports ground near our school and schoolchildren go in for sports in the open air.

4. Sport helps people to keep in good health. If you like sports, you have good health and don't catch cold. Children and grown-ups must take care of their health and do morning exercises regularly.

attentive!

a) to play a sport (when we speak about games in which one tries to win against another person or team).

Examp1e: to play football -||- tennis, -||- handball.

Example: aerobics, gymnastics, exercise.

c) to be into a sport (informal) (when we speak about being inter­ested or absorbed in sport).

Example: She is into yoga.

(The differences between the collocations are very important for comprehension and active use. Pupils study the rules individually.)

(picture 9)

d) to go V-ing (is used when we speak about sport activity which is not done professionally).

Example: to go swimming, to go skiing, etc. - Jack goes swimming.

(It means that he is not a professional swimmer. It's his hobby and he doesn't do it regularly.)

e) to V (to swim, to ski, etc.).

(This expression is used when we speak about sport, which is done professionally / competitively.) Example: Jack swims.

(It means that he is a professional swimmer who takes part in competitions.)

Some sport verbs are used only without play / do / go

Example: to box, to wrestle…

(picture 10)

translate them into Russian.

Teacher. Read the following opinions and answer the questions: (picture 11)

1) How are they different?

2) Do you agree with these opinions?

A) Professional athletes are spoilt and overpaid. They contribute nothing to society. ( Профессиональные атлеты испорчены и переплачены. Они ничего не вносят в общество).

В) Professional athletes represent their country and provide a role model for a

healthy lifestyle. (Профессиональные атлеты представляют свою страну и обеспечивают

образец для подражания здорового образа жизни).

P1: As for me, opinion A is negative. The person expressing this opinion means that

professional sport is bad both for the athletes and for the society.

(Что касается меня, мнение A отрицательно. Человек, выражающий это мнение,

подразумевает, что профессиональный спорт плох как для атлетов так и для общества).

SPORTS AND GAMES

We are sure you are all interested in sport. Many of you cer­tainly play such games as volleyball or football, basket­ball or tennis. People who play a game are players. Players form teams and play matches with other teams - their oppo­nents. Two players playing with each other are partners. Each team can lose or win. In a football match players try to score as many goals as they can.

Most matches take place in large stadiums.

Athletics is the most popular sport. People call it 'the queen of all sports'. It comprises such kinds of sports as: running (for different distances), jumping (long and high jumps) and others.

From time to time international championships and races (horse-races, motor-races, and cycle-races) take place. Representa­tives of various countries can win a gold, silver or bronze med­al. Such great championships in sport are organized every four years and we call them Olympic Games. Only the best may take part in them.

There are so many kinds of sports, such as cycling, swim­ming, gymnastics, boxing, skating, skiing, rowing, yachting and many more in which you can take an active part or just be a devoted fan.

Everybody may choose the sport he (or she) is fond of or in­terested in.

VIII. Speaking

(picture 15)

Teacher.

People in our country are fond of sports very much. It's really so, because there are no schools, institutes and universities without a gym or a stadium nearby. There are also a lot of keep-fit centers in Russia where amateurs go to keep their fit, chat with friends and relax after their working day.

The government of our country pays a great at­tention to different problems related with sports. It supports young sportsmen, helps sporting societies and sport clubs in Russia to develop all kinds of sport.

Of course, sport helps us to keep fit and be healthy. Sport is divided into professional and amateur. They are rather different. I think all people like to play dif­ferent sport games, go in for aerobics, yoga, swim­ming, skating and skiing. They do it in their free time when they want to have some rest. So it is some kind of a hobby.

Teacher. Tell me please what d'you know about popular sports in our country, in

Russia?

P1: There are several popular sports in our country: football, volley-ball, hockey, tennis, gymnastics, skiing and skating. Athletics is one of the most popular kinds of sports too. It includes running, jumping and other things. Everybody may choose the sport is interested in.

Teacher. What do you know about popular sports in Great Britain? (pupils answers)

1. Englishmen love sports, they are called sports-lovers in spite of the fact that some of them neither play games nor even watch them. They only like to talk about sports.

2. I think that some kinds of sport are professional in England. Popular and famous players have a lot of money. Many traditional sporting contests take place in England, for example, cricket. It is played from May till Sep­tember. This game is associated with England. There are many cricket clubs in this country. English people like to play cricket. They think that summer without cricket isn't summer.

3. Cricket is the Eng­lish national sport in summer. If you want to play cricket you must wear white boots, a white shirt and long white trou­sers. There are two teams. Each team has eleven players. Cricket is popular in boys' schools. Girls play cricket too.

4. Football. It has a long history. Football was played by the whole village teams in the middle Ages in England. Now football is the most popular game in Britain. It is a team game. Professional football is a big business. Football is played at schools too.

5. Rugby football. You can see a ball in this game but it is not round. It is oval. This is a team game. There are fifteen players in each team. It is a popular game in England. There are many amateur rugby football teams.

6. Table tennis. Englishmen heard about table tennis in 1880. The International Table Tennis Association was formed and international rules were worked out.

7. Many people like to play table tennis. This game is played by men and women too. There are many tennis clubs in Eng­land but if you go and play there it is

nec­essary to pay money for it. Englishmen like playing tennis but many of them prefer to watch this game.

No wander, that all the British like all kinds of races. A lot of people like it and even risk money on the horse or dog, which must win as they think. What do you know about it?

1. There are several racing competitions in England. They are motor-car racing, dog-racing, donkey-racing, boat-racing, horse-racing. All kinds of racing are very pop­ular in England.

(picture 18)

Teacher.

There is no other thing in the world which would be so popular, famous and favorite by all people as the Olympic Games. I'm sure that everybody likes to watch it and it is a very great event for sportsmen to take part in the Olympic Games.

People all over the world know about the Olympic Games. It was decided to stage the first Olympic Games in the home of the Olympic Games-Greece. They were held in 1896 in Athens. Since that time athletes from around the world have gathered many times under the Olympic banners. And all of them, despite the differences in the convictions were united by the ideas of the Olympic movement. Tell me please what do know about the Olympic Games?

1. The Olympic Games are the greatest in­ternational sports games in the world. The Olympic Games have a long and in­teresting history. Competitions of ath­letes took place in Greece. They were only for men. It was twenty eight centuries ago, in 776 B.C. Before Christ (до нашей эры)

2. The most important competitions in Olympia were named the Olympic Games. The Olympic Games were a public festi­val. They were held every four years. The Olympic Games included events in racing, boxing, jump­ing, horse racing and wrestling.

3. The Olympic Games became the symbol of peace and friendship. In 1896 the world again heard about the Olympic Games. The International Olympic Com­mittee was set up and began to work in 1896. There were competitions in

many kinds of sport: jumping and running, boxing and swimming, athletics, foot­ball, basket-ball and others.

4. Summer and Winter Games are held separately. Winter Olympic Games first took place in 1924. There were competi­tions in skiing, skating, ice hockey. Since 1936 the opening ceremony has been celebrated by lighting a flame, which is called "The Olympic Flame."

5. Many people want the Olympic Games to be held in their cities but it depends on the decision of the International Olympic Committee. The Olympic Games have been held in the cities of Europe, Ameri­ca, Asia and Australia. Our country joined the Olympic Movement in 1952. The 22nd Summer Olympic Games were held in Moscow in 1980 (from July 19 to August 3).

6. Many athletes, guests and journalists came to Moscow and it was the first time that the Olympic Games were held in our country. Our Russian sportsmen won 80 gold, 69 silver and 46 bronze medals during these Games. The Olympic Games are the festi­val of health, peace and friendship.

Moscow Olympic Games

Teacher. June 19, 1980 was a great day in Olympia. According to the ancient tradition, at an altar near the sacred ruins of Hera's Temple at noon, the sun's rays gave life to the flame of Olympiad-80.

The Olympiad-80 Flame was carried by torch-bearers who were athletes from Greece, Bulgaria [bʌl'gɛərɪə], Romania [ru'meɪnɪə] and the Soviet Union. The best athletes were chosen to carry the torch. 5,000 torch-bearers were selected for the task as a result of qualifying contests. The idea of the torch being carried by runners was that it seemed to be the most sporting way of doing it. The Olympic Flame Relay made a colourful prelude to Olympiad-80.

(picture 20)

Teacher. General Secretary at that time was Leonid Brezhnev. The name of our country was Union of Soviet Socialist Republic. About the Olympic Games Leonid Brezhnev said: "Sports bring people clo­ser together, help them to get to know and under-staid each other better. It would be a good thing were the ideals of brotherhood, friendship and mutual understanding that guide the, Olympic movement always to set the atmosphere of the meetings between athletes from various countries".

The Olympiad-80 which was held in Moscow was a surprising show.

And now I want you to look at the screen, I think it will be very interesting for you.
