The
modern way of life, when people have little physical activity, use
cars instead of walking, watch television for many hours, and work on
computers is turning them into legless creatures. Although a lot of
people are interested in staying healthy, not many people do very
much about it. Only 10% of adults take part in sport more than twice
a week.

The
majority of people live in towns and cities, where space for team
sports is limited. To keep fit, most people take part in individual
sports. They usually go walking, swimming, cycling, or do aerobics.
Taking part in all of these sports is informal and casual. Most
people just want to relax. If they do aerobics or go swimming, they
usually go to the sports centre; but not many people join a sport
club.

Some
people argue that sports are not very useful. It takes a lot of
energy and time. As a result of going in for sports, people have
broken legs and arms and other injuries. Besides, it makes you
unhappy when you lose. A lot of people prefer to watch sports
competitions rather than take part in sports. Thousands of people go
to the stadiums to support their favourite teams and sportsmen. The
most popular spectator sports are football, hockey and figure
skating. Most of the important competitions are televised, and people
enjoy watching sports programmes on TV. They needn’t buy tickets
and go to a stadium, especially in cold and rainy weather. But
certainly watching sports events and going in for sports are two
different things.

In
my opinion, people can’t do without sports. Sports play an
important part in our lives. I think sports help us in different
ways. First of all, it helps us to stay in good shape, to keep fit
and to be healthy. It makes people strong, fast and agile. What is
more, sport builds character; it teaches us to compete and practice
sportsmanship. It makes us more organised and better disciplined in
our daily activities. Besides, it is a good way to meet people and to
make new friends.

Sports are essential part of
our everyday life. To have a healthy mind, you must have a healthy
body. But to be healthy, it is not necessary to become a professional
sportsman. You may go in for sports just for pleasure, when you have
free time.

As
for me I go in for table tennis ( ping-pong). It needs mobility,
liveliness and much energy. It keeps a person in form. I have been
playing tennis for several years but the more I play the more I like
it. I get a real joy taking part in competitions or simply playing
with my friends.

1. In some countries people eat with forks and spoons while in others people may use fingers or chopsticks. However, utensil choice is much more complicated than choosing chopsticks or fingers. In some countries, licking the fingers is polite; in others, licking the fingers is considered impolite. The amount of food people eat and leave uneaten also varies from group to group. Some people from Middle East and Southeast Asian countries might leave a little bit of food on their plates in order to indicate that their hunger has been satisfied.

2. One in seven of Denbighshire’s schoolchildren has given up school meals in the past three years and the take-up rate is much less than it was before, only about 48% now. And that is because the cost of groceries rose by 29,000 last year and more was paid for meat. The increased use of fresh vegetables has pushed the cost of meals well above inflation. Rising costs for fresh vegetables and fish are also adding to pressures. Even modest price rises could lead to a disproportionate drop in the number of pupils eating school dinners.

3. The idea of set mealtimes eaten together as a family may feel like an impossible task given for our ‘hectic, 21st century’ lifestyles. But it should be remembered that regular meals are essential when it comes to maintaining a healthy lifestyle. And nowadays there is no other way but to start eat regularly and at one and the same time. Eating on the go, sporadic mealtimes and snacks are not good habits, especially for kids. This can often lead to skipping meals altogether meaning your kids will be missing out on essential nutrients.

4. Pauline Page, finance and administration manager at Whole School Foods, a catering company in Kent, said food prices are 20 to 25% higher than this time last year. “It’s been getting worse since last October. The cost of all food is going up — even from local suppliers. It’s quite tough at the moment,” Page said. School caterers are struggling to keep healthy meals on the menu as the price of basic ingredients soars.

5. “Getting students excited and interested in preparing and cooking ‘real’ food is an important way of encouraging them to make healthier, informed food choices,” says Steven Watts. “At the start of this year, we launched our own interactive cooking competition for secondary schools, it is designed to inspire students to eat and live healthily.”

6. The Select menu offers pupils more fresh fruit, vegetable and salad options, more home-cooked foods, all fresh meat sourced from the UK and a comprehensive reduction in fat, salt and sugar content. Feedback from the 25 schools taking part in the nationwide trial has been extremely positive, with figures showing meal take-up rising by as much as 23 per cent.

7. The idea of linking cuisine to national character goes back a long way: think, for example, of the French characterisation of the English as ‘ros-bifs’ and the English calling the French ‘frogs*, each based on ideas of the food eaten in the other country. The existence of religious feasts, fasts and prescriptions on certain foods (or requirements to eat them) also make a difference to a national cuisine too. When travelling, don’t forget about national cuisines. Learn about them before you go anywhere.
