Healthy living

— Hi, George!

— Hi, Emily, how are you?

— I feel great. I have just got back from the sports centre.

— I didn't know you were doing any sports.

— Oh yes, I have got quite a few exercise classes. On Mondays and Wednesdays I go to aerobics. It's really good for my heart and it helps me keep fit.

— That's true. You look great. Do you do any other kind of sport?

— On Tuesdays I go to yoga. It is good for stretching the body and for relaxing.

— What about Fridays? Do you do anything on Fridays?

— Of course I do. I go to the gym and do weight training for two hours. It is the best way to build up your muscles. But George, do you do anything to make your life healthier?

— I also do some exercises. I go running every day before breakfast. And I do exercises every night before I go to bed. I do press-ups and sit-ups.

— Why don't you come with me to the sports centre? You will have the opportunity to train more. Your exercises are simply a warm up before real training.

— You're right, I should try it. But do you do anything else to stay healthy?

— As you know, I don't smoke cigarettes and I don't drink alcohol. I try to avoid stressful situations and not to worry about any problems. I also only eat healthy food.

— Healthy food?

— Yes, vegetables, fruit, cereals, whole-meal bread...

— I think I will also try to make my way of living healthier. I'll eat only healthy food. And... when are we going to the sports centre?

Text 2. SPORT AND A HEALTHY MODE OF LIFE.
Sport is very important in our life. It is popular among young and old people.
Many people do morning exercises, jog in the morning, train themselves in clubs, in different sections and take part in sport competitions.
Other people like sports too, but they only watch sports games, listen to sports news. They prefer reading interesting stories about sportsmen. But they don't go in for sports.
Physical training is an important subject at school. Pupils have got physical training lessons twice a week. Boys and girls play volley-ball and basket-ball at the lessons. There is a sports ground near our school and school-children go in for sports in the open air.
A lot of different competitions are held at schools, a great number of pupils take part in them. All participants try to get good results and become winners. Sport helps people to keep in good health. If you go in for sports, you have good health and don't catch cold.
Children and grown-ups must take care of their health and do morning exercises regularly.
There are some popular kinds of sports in our country: football, volley-ball, hockey, gymnastics, skiing, skating. Athletics is one of the most popular kinds of sports. It includes such kinds of sports as running, jumping and others. Everybody may choose the sport he (or she) is interested in.
There are summer and winter sports.
My favourite sport is swimming. I go to the swimming-pool twice a week. But I prefer to rest by the lake or the river and swim there.
My friend Kostya goes in for boxing, He is a good boxer and he is a brave and courageous boy. His hobby helps him in his everyday life.
We must speak about the Highland Games in Scotland. All competitors wear Highland dress. There are such competitions as putting the weight, tossing the caber and others. The English are great lovers of sports.
