Sports
All over the world people enjoy sports. Sports help to keep people healthy and happy, and to live longer.
Sports change with the seasons. People play different games in winter and summer. Swimming is fun in warm weather, but skating is good in winter.
Some sports are so interesting that people everywhere go in for them. Football, for example, has spread around the world. Swimming is popular in all countries near the sea or in those with many rivers. Some sports or games go back thousands of years, like running or jumping. Chinese wushu, for example, has a very long history. But basketball and volleyball are rather new. People are inventing new sports or games all the time. Water skiing is one of the newest in the family of sports.
People from different countries may not be able to understand each other, but after a game together they often become good friends. Sports help to train a person＇s character. One learns to fight hard but fight fair, to win without pride and to lose with grace. (勝不驕,敗不餒)
[點(diǎn)評(píng)]
運(yùn)動(dòng)是人人皆知的話題。作者從運(yùn)動(dòng)的種類到運(yùn)動(dòng)項(xiàng)目的歷史作了一番描述，在結(jié)尾段中強(qiáng)調(diào)了運(yùn)動(dòng)的好處，觀點(diǎn)顯而易見(jiàn)。語(yǔ)言簡(jiǎn)單明了，描述、議論清楚。

運(yùn)動(dòng)
全世界的人都喜歡運(yùn)動(dòng)。運(yùn)動(dòng)使人健康，快樂(lè)而且長(zhǎng)壽。
運(yùn)動(dòng)項(xiàng)目隨季節(jié)而有所變化。人們?cè)诙竞拖募咀霾煌倪\(yùn)動(dòng)。夏天游泳其樂(lè)無(wú)窮，冬天滑雪快樂(lè)無(wú)比。
有些運(yùn)動(dòng)非常有意思，任何地方的人都喜歡。比如說(shuō)，足球就風(fēng)靡全球。游泳流行于居住在世界各國(guó)海邊河邊的人中間。有些運(yùn)動(dòng)可追溯到古代，像跑步跳高等。再比如中國(guó)武術(shù)就歷史悠久。但是籃球排球卻是新項(xiàng)目。人們一直在發(fā)明新的運(yùn)動(dòng)項(xiàng)目或比賽�；沁\(yùn)動(dòng)家庭中最新的成員之一。
來(lái)自不同國(guó)家的人或許相互不能明白對(duì)方的語(yǔ)言，但是一場(chǎng)比賽過(guò)后，他們往往會(huì)成為好朋友。運(yùn)動(dòng)可磨煉人的性格。一個(gè)人能學(xué)會(huì)奮力拼搏，公平競(jìng)爭(zhēng)，勝不驕，敗不餒。
