Discussion
Sample 1
Yes, I participate in quite a few sports
activities. I love football and I am on the
department team. I also enjoy rowing and have
participated in several boat races on the West
Lake. I took part in the table tennis tournament
last year and played a few matches. Jogging is
also my favorite sport. I jog as much as I can,
and plan to enter a winter marathon race someday
when Im ready. I love competitions and enjoy
competing with other students. Sports are fun and
they make me feel better and keep me fit. Whats
more, sports help to train my character. I learn
to fight hard but fight fair, to win without
pride and to lose with grace.
27
Discussion
Sample 2

No, I dont do any sports at all except for those
in my P.E. class. I am not strong enough and
easily get exhausted. Thats why Ive never been
interested in sports, even when I was in the
middle school. Besides, I have to study very hard
because I dont like to lag behind others. So I
dont have much time left for other activities.
