. Read the following passage and answer the questions. Some people think that sports and games are unimportant things. In fact, sports and games can be of great value, especially to people working with their brain most of the day. Sports and games make our bodies strong and keep us healthy. But these are not their only uses. They give us valuable practice in making eyes, brain, and muscles work together. For example, in tennis, our eyes see the ball coming, judge its speed and direction, and pass this information on to the brain. The brain then has to decide what to do, and send to orders to the muscle of the arms, legs, and so on. So tennis helps train the co-ordination among eyes, brain, arms, and legs. Sports and games are also useful for character training. In their lesson at school, boys and girls may learn about such virtues as unselfishness, courage, discipline, and love of one’s country. In sports and games, a pupil can really practice these virtues. 26. What do some people think of sports and games? …………………………………………………………………………………. 27.
