Sport in My School
If you want to keep fit you must go in for one kind of sport or anotner.
Sport is an essential part of my daily life. Every morning all the year round I do my morning exercises. Almost every day I do some training. In summer I go swimming or rowing. During my summer holidays I go on hikes. I usually spend my winter holidays in the country where I ski, skate or toboggan. I also go in for track-and-field (athletics) events.
Different sports and games are popular with my classmates. All my friends go in for different kinds of sport, such as water polo, gymnastics, horse-raeing, wrestling, fencing, weightlifting, boxing, ice-hockey, speed-skating, figure-skating, football, basket-ball, volley-ball, etc. We have fine teams at our school and different kinds of competitions take place there. The boys of my school are crazy about football, they play football and the girls are football fans. The girls never miss a single match played by school teams.
And now a few words about our physical training lessons. In winter our physical training lessons are held out-of-doors. We go skiing or skating. When it is cold outside P.T. lessons are held indoors, in our school gymnasium. We play different team-games such as basket-ball or volley-ball. Besides we have some training in gymnastics.
In autumn and in spring, when the weather is warm we have P.T. lessons at our school stadium. My school has a sports day once a year in late spring. On this day we have no lessons. All the competitors change into their sports clothes, the spectators find their seats round the track ready to cheer. All the events take place at the same time. This day is a great success every year. Even if the weather is not warm, we enjoy ourselves just the same.

Перевод текста in the 1980s and early 1990s, when africans first realised that tourism could be a way out of their poverty, they built very large concrete hotels on the beaches of kenya, south africa, and other countries. for a time the charter flights poured in from germany and italy. the tourists hoped to see lions, but also wanted to lie by the pool and to eat food from their own country and enjoy the other comforts of home. the revenue from tourism rose sharply, but most of it went to international tour operators. that was then. fortunately, a new kind of travel is now in fashion. today’s tourists are leaving the high-rise hotels and european comforts. instead they are looking for more authentic experiences. on the wild coast of south africa, young tourists ride horses on unspoilt beaches and make their way through hills of subtropical vegetation. in the evening they sit round the fire and eat a traditional xhosa meal of meat and vegetables; they listen to the local xhosa people tell folk stories, before going to bed in simple tents and lodges. the experience is not offered by an international tour operator but the xhosa themselves. the xhosa tour guides are paid two and a half times the average rate of pay. the change from “old tourism” to “new tourism” did not happen suddenly. the developments in technology and transport infrastructure made many types of tourism more affordable. interest in the traditional two-week sun and sea package holiday fell gradually towards the end of the last century. individual tailor-made or independent holidays – such as fly-drive – have steadily become more popular. nowadays people are taking shorter yet more diverse holidays. long-haul flights are increasing and making faraway places easier to get to. more and more tourists are looking for adventure, activity, and authenticity. adventure travel, ecotourism, cultural tours, and sports vacations are taking people to more exotic destinations: china, the maldives, botswana, vanuatu.
