Thousands years ago ancient Greeks said: “A sound mind is in a sound body.” Millions of people who go in for sports know from their own experience that this famous saying is true to fact. At the same time a great number of people do not go in for sports. Some of them realize that sports is useful but prefer watching sport competitions on TV to going in for it themselves. But in our lyceum there are real lovers of sports. Our sportsmen take first places in various competitions held in the town and in the region. We organize very interesting sport festivals every autumn and spring and encourage our champions.

Teacher: Meet Steve, please. He is from Boston. He’d like to speak to you about sports in his school. We are listening to his talk with Denis.

Denis: What kind of sports facilities have you got at your school?

Steve: Well, in my school there is a large gym. There are courts for badminton , basketball, netball, football and tennis.

Denis: That’s great! In our lyceum we have got two gyms – a large one where we have game sports and do physical exercises and a smaller gym where our girls do aerobics.

Steve: I think sports facilities are alike in many American schools. Special accommodations is provided for fitness and conditioning.

Denis: How often do you have your Physical Education lessons? I am sure you are fond of them.

Steve: Certainly. Everybody wants to be healthy. We have lessons two or three times a week and many of my friends attend special sport clubs. It’s a real pleasure to feel your body strong and healthy.

Denis: I agree with you. That’s why in our lyceum we pay great attention to healthy style of living and to sports. A lot of students take part in competitions and win prizes.

Steve: In my school there are also facilities for the disabled. We never forget about them when hold competitions or championships.

Denis: It’s a pity we haven’t such facilities in our place but we know people with a physical disability participate in the Paralympics.

Teacher: That’ll do. Thank you, boys. We’d like to listen to your stories about sports in Russia and in our lyceum.

6. Checking homework. 

Pupil 1. I’ll speak about sports in KZ. Our people are great sport lovers. Certainly in our school we haven’t got such conditions for physical exercises as they have in the USA or Great Britain but we are good sportsmen too. Russian children start to go in for sports since their early childhood. Like children in other countries we are fond of running, jumping, skipping, playing snowballs. Just remember yourself when a child – you always moved, you hated to stand still. When we grew up our sport activities became more serious. Now we attend sport clubs or go to sport centers if we are interested in staying healthy.

In my opinion many Russian people are fond of sports. Sport plays an important role in our lives. We know many Kazakh athletes who win in European and world championships. Our figure skaters are the best. They take a lot of cups and medals in different competitions. Who doesn’t know Russian skiers! We are proud of them! I want to remind you the results of the last Olympic Games. The Kazakh team won a great number of gold, silver and bronze medals. One of the champions was our countrywoman. It is our cycler Slyusareva.

So, sport helps us to stay in good shape, to build character. It teaches us to win and to lose. Besides, it is a good way to meet different people and make new friends.

Pupil 2. As for me, I want to tell you about sports in our lyceum. You know we pay great attention to sports in the lyceum. Any boy or girl who shows good results at our PE lessons is given every help to become a good athlete or even champion. We have PE twice a week and we enjoy our lessons very much. The lessons are held in two gyms and in the sports ground. At the lessons we run, jump and play sport games. From time to time in the lyceum competitions and sport festivals take place. We are crazy about volleyball and basketball. Our volleyball team is the best in the town. Andrey Tinkov, Ilya Obrazumov, Alexander Generalov are the best volleyball players. Each student in the lyceum knows Rita Gorbunkova, Anna Vishnevetskaya, Oxana Kholopova. The girls are excellent runners. They won the relay cup this spring.

In my opinion every person should go in for sports because it helps people to be strong and agile. It makes us more organized and better disciplined in our daily activities.

Any kind of sports has its own advantages but I prefer volleyball. I attend a volleyball club in the lyceum. I am sure this sport game develops character and quick thinking.

7. Development monologue skill. 

Teacher: Who wants to tell us about a favorite kind of sports?

Pupil: I like swimming. I started to learn when I was about seven years old. I think that swimming is something like music or language. That is why very good to start as early as possible if you want to be good at it. I visit swimming pool every week. Swimming helps me to stay in good shape.

Pupil: In my opinion the best sport is tennis. In fact I play table tennis. My father has taught me this game. And now I play it every day. I’m so glad that tennis is so popular in the lyceum. During the breaks or after the lessons there are many students waiting their turn to play tennis. It is good for my health and body. Tennis also helps me to relax after my working day.

Pupil: I go in for jogging. Every morning I run about a kilometer. And after it I am not tired at all. Jogging keeps me fit the rest of the day. All I need for these exercises are shorts, a vest and trackers. I run all year round in any weather.

Pupil: As for me I do not like sports. It takes a lot of energy and time. As a result of going in for sports, people can have broken legs and arms. It makes you unhappy when you lose. So I prefer to watch sport competitions than participate in them.

8. reading the text. 

Teacher: Now you will read the text and learn what are the most popular sports in Russia.
