Ex.6. Read and translate the text.
Do you go in for sports?
Check your knowledge.
What sort of shape are you in? Are you the sort of person who goes for a run each morning , or are you the other kind who gets out of breath when reaching for a cigarette?
Maybe you have a lot of energy. You go to work or school, you make decisions all day, you do extra work at home. Exercise? You don’t have enough time - why bother anyway?
Well, the answer to that question is your body design. Human beings weren’t built for sitting at a desk all day: your body is constructed for hunting, jumping, lifting, running, climbing and a variety of other activities. If you don’t get the exercise that your body wants, then things can go badly wrong. Tour mind works all day , and your to severe illness to early death.
Not a very cheerful thought, and of course the natural reaction is “It’s not going to happen to me”. Maybe, maybe not. Here are two ways of looking after yourself: firstly, by seeing if you are doing the right sort of exercise, and secondly by seeing if you have the right kind of diet. (From “Modern English International” Mozaika, 1984, №263)

Sports and games popular in England
— What would you say are the most popular games in England today?
— Well, I suppose football, that is, soccer, racket and cricket.
— What are the other outdoor games?
— Oh, there's tennis, hockey, golf, and so on. Tennis is played all the, year round—on
hard courts or grass courts in summer, and on hard or covered courts in winter.
— What about horse-racing?
I should say that is one of the most popular sports in Great Britain. Then there are, of course,
walking-races, running, swimming and boxing.
— I've been told that there are no winter sports in England.
— Well, you see; the English winter isn't very severe as a rule and we don't often have the
chance of, skiing, skating or tobogganing, but winter is the great time for hunting, provided
the ground is not too hard.
— Is there any golf to be had near London?
— Oh, yes, any amount. There are dozensof good golf-links within an hour/or so of London.
You ought to join a golf club if you're keen on the game.
— I think I shall if I get the chance. What about indoor games?
— Well, there's chess, billiards, cards, table tennis... By the, way, do you play billiards?
— Well, but of 'course, I'm not a professional or a champion, justan ordinary amateur and not a
very good one at that.
