Sport is very popular in Britain. In other words a lot of British I people like the idea of sport, a lot even watch sport, especially onl the TV. However, the number who actively take part in sport isl probably quite small. On the whole British people prefer to be fafl rather than fit. '

The most popular spectator sport is football. Football isl played on a Saturday afternoon in most British towns and thefl fans or supporters of a particular team will travel from one encfl of the country to the other to see their team play.

Many other sports are also played in Britain, including golfl in which you try to knock a ball into a hole; croquet in which yoil try to knock a ball through some hoops; basketball in which youl try to get a ball into a net; tennis in which you try to hit a ball sal that your opponent cannot hit it and cricket which is played v. it hi a ball, but is otherwise incomprehensible. As you can see, if thai ball had not been invented, there would have been no sport.

Actually that's not quite true. Athletics is not played with M ball, nor is horse-racing. Perhaps that explains why they are notfl so popular as football.

Пройдя через турникет, вы очутились в ином, великолепном мире, мире, где есть боль Борьбы, но также есть красота и страсть Искусства. Ну и кроме всего прочего, за свой шиллинг вы получили тему для разговоров, которой за глаза хватит вам на всю неделю.
