The last time we participated in a competition in July. It was a great sporting event in my life. The competition took place at the biggest stadium in Kyiv.

On the second day the team from Kyiv showed good result and forged ahead. Shortly it moved into the lead and won the competition on points.

 As a result the Kyiv team became the champion of this competition. Several track-and-field athletes from Lvov showed their best results and even set up records in individual championship.

Track-and-Field Athletics

Track-and-field athletics is a world-wide sport that has grown in popularity since the days of Greeks. Records of organized competitions in track events date back from the first Olympic Games in 775 B.C. It is a sport in which techniques constantly change as stronger athletes taught by better coaches break through new record barriers.

Track-and-field athletics includes many events, such as: running: middle distance race, steeple-chase, relay race, cross-country race; 1) trial run, running on toes, running in the curve, jogging, drive to accumulate, find race etc.; 2) jumping: high jump, scissors high jump, long jump, hop, step and jump, pole vault, standing jump, squat, jump, running jump, standing hop, etc.; the discus throwing, the hammer throwing, the javelin throwing, the shot-put, walking, pentathlon and decathlon.

Each of these events has its own skill and many of them are difficult to learn. There is a lot to learn in this sport.

The young athlete who trains without purpose or proper direction will soon tire of the sport. There are certain general principles which must be followed. The athlete studies his event as both its technique and training methods.

The «Queen of Sport» is not exacting. Any kind of stadium or court is a fine training place for a jumper, a runner, a shot-putter or hammer-thrower.

Lawn Tennis

Tennis is the kind of sports I like best of all and therefore I decided to choose it as my sporting speciality.

Tennis is a very beautiful game. It is played with a small ball and rackets on a level court. The court is divided across its middle by a net and includes four service courts, two back courts and two alleys. The alleys are used in playing doubles game (two on a side) but not in playing the singles game (one on a side). Singles court is used for singles game doubles court is used for doubles game. It is divided into two equal parts by a line, so that on each side of the net there are two courts: a right court and a left court. A net is attached to the ports at a height of 0.91 metre or 1.06 metre and must be 1 m in its centre.

The players must stand on opposite sides of the net. The player who first delivers the ball is called the server, and the other the receiver. The choice of sides and right to be server or receiver in the first game shall be decided by toss. The player winning the toss may choose or require his opponent to choose: a) the right to be server or receiver in which case the other player shall choose the side or; b) the side in which case the other player shall choose the right to be server or receiver.

To begin a game one player tosses up a ball and bats it over the net with his racket. This is called serving. The server must serve first from the right-hand side of the court standing with both feet back of the base-line, and must bat the ball so that it will fall in the service court diagonally opposite him; if he fails to do this it is called a «fault» and he immediately tries again.

If he serves a fault twice in succession, a point is scored to the opponent (0:15). When the first point has been won or lost the same player serves again; this time from the left side and he continues to serve alternately from right and left side-hand until the games finished. The service ball must not be back over the net before it has touched the ground.

Any player to whom a ball is returned must return it is like manners. Playing continues after each service until one of the players fails to return the ball. The ball must not be played until it has passed over the net.

 After the first point is made up, a player counts fifteen, the second fifteen making thirty, the third ten making forty and the fourth wins the game.

 Experienced tennis players must use different tactics against every opponent. Experts say that a tennis player's style reflects his character.

Volleyball is a modern game. It originated in America. The dame was in tented in 1895 by William G. Morgan in Holyoke, Massachusetts. Volleyball was then growing in popularity. It was developed as a modification of tennis. For some time people did not show any great interest in this game. But after the first exhibition of game in Springfield, Massachusetts in 1896, volleyball has become increasingly popular. Later volleyball became a splendid recreational game.

The basic idea of the play was to volley the ball back and forth over the net. Slowly more and more people were all attracted and the number of participants steadily increased. In the beginning the number of participants steadily increased. In the beginning the game had a few simple rules. The first complete set of rules was formulated in 1917 and since then volleyball has seen many additions and modifications as the game developed and became more specialized.

Football

       Football is a mass sport in our country. It is the most favorite kind of sport.

       The game is played by two teams. Each team consists of 11 players: left back, left half-back, right back, right half-back, inside left, inside right, outside right, outside left, centre half, centre forward and goalie or goalkeeper.

       Besides these 11 players who play on the field there are some reserves. Every soccer player may head, kick at goal, hit, kick, shoot from volley, kick in running, etc. We distinguish between headwork or head playing, fisting, handling, etc. Every squad has its captain.

       All footballers wear football T-shirts, shorts and shoes with spikes. A referee is appointed to officiate in each team with two linesmen to assist him. Football players are trained on stadiums all year round.

This game develops precious qualities in a man necessary for him in labour: strength and will-power, initiative and persistence, agility and endurance.

The team scoring the greater number of goals during a game is a winner. If no goals or an equal number of goals are scored the game ends in a draw.

Handball

The game of handball has a number of features which recommend its inclusion in the programme. It requires no special racket, club or other expensive equipment. It can be played either indoors or outdoors and thus be enjoyed at any season.

The rules are quite simple - one can learn to play well enough to have fun in a very short time. A minute explanation will suffice to start a novice playing the game. It can be played by the young and the old with benefit. It is an excellent all-season sport for athletes.

Coordination of the body is developed to a high degree because of the instantaneous decision and responses required in playing the game. During the play both sides of the body are used in exactly the same manner.

The game is played on a court 30 to 50m long and 15 to 25m wide. A team consists of seven players, one of whom is a goalkeeper and the other six field players.       The object of the game is to throw the largest number of balls into the opponent goal and not to let any balls pass into their own goal. A ball for the game must be round, made of leather with a rubber bladder inside.

In handball the players are allowed to pass the ball by hands, catch the ball and throw it into the opponent goal. In the game of handball the players use natural movements: running, jumping, throwing.

This game develops strength, agility, endurance and other qualities important to a sportsman.

One must distinguish between the following throws: the shooting for goals, throw-off, two-hand throw, swinging throw, standing throw, throw-on, pivot throw, repeated throw, corner throw and many others.

Reading 1:The Problem of Sports Doping

Sports doping is becoming a bigger and bigger problem. Although there are many different drug tests, each year even more different kinds of drugs are available, In addition, more athletes are taking drugs to help their performance. And it's not just professional athletes. Even some teenagers take drugs to help their high school team win «the big game».

Athletes use drugs in a number of different ways. Some take drugs to make themselves stronger and faster. They also use drugs to mask pain, help them relax, or increase their confidence. But they all take drugs for the same reason -to win. For some, winning is more than just a gold medal. A star athlete can earn a lot of money. For others, winning just means bragging rights-they can talk big for a while. So, although athletes know that working hard is the way to win, they also know that drugs can give them a special advantage. Some of them also believe that not taking drugs is a disadvantage.

Most of the drugs in the chart (beta-blockers, alcohol, cocaine, amphetamines, caffeine, diuretics, anabolics, steroids, insulin)are banned in Olympic competitions; they are not allowed at all. However, some, such as cortisone, are only restricted in Olympic competition because they are sometimes necessary. Using banned drugs can have many bad consequences. If an athlete is caught, he or she will not be allowed to compete. However, even if an athlete is not caught, these drugs are dangerous. For example, if athletes use drugs that mask pain, they may seriously injure themselves.                      Other banned drugs have even more serious consequences. Some drugs can cause heart attacks, strokes, and even cancer. Furthermore, injections that are not given by a doctor are always risky.

 Unclean conditions can also lead to serious diseases such as HIV-AIDS and hepatitis. Unfortunately, more and more competitors are willing to take all of these risks in order to win.

Reading 2: Olympian Drug Problems

Many Olympians failed drug tests at the2004 games in Athens. The following listshows that sports doping is definitely a globalproblem. The list is long; however, rememberthat more than 10,000 Olympic athletescompeted in the 2004 Olympic Games.

Athletes caughttakingillegal drugs:
- Greek weight lifter Leonidas Sampanis won a bronze medal. Later he failed a drug test and was the first athlete in Athens to lose his medal.

-Russian shot-putter Irina Korzhanenko won a gold medal. Then she tested positive for steroids and had to give back the medal.

-A women's rowing team from the Ukraine won a bronze medal and lost it after Olena Olefirenko tested positive for a banned stimulant.

-Weight lifter Zoltan Kovacs of Hungary finished last. But he was asked to leave The Games because he refused to take a drug test. He was the tenth weight lifter punished for doping,

-Greek runners Kostas Kenteris and Katerina Thanou said that they missed a drug test because they were in a motorcycle accident. When the International Olympic Committee started investigating, they dropped out of the Olympics.

-Aleksey Lesnichyi, a high jumper from Belarus, left The Games after he tested positive for steroids.

-Colombian cyclist Maria Luisa Calle Williams lost her bronze medal
alter testing positive for a stimulant.

-The International Olympic Committee (IOC) did not alow Kenyan
boxer David Munyasia to compete in the Olympics because he tested
positive for a banned stimulant before The Games began.

-The International Weightlifting Federation did not allow Wafa
Ammonri of Morocco, Zoltan Kecskes of Hungary, Viktor Chislean of
Moldova, Pratima Kumari Na of India, and Sule Sahbaz of Turkey to
compete in the Olympics because they failed drug tests.

-Female weight lifters also had problems. Myanmars Nan Aye Khine
and India's Sanamacha Chanu both got fourth place in two different
weight classes. However, they later tested positive for banned drugs.
They had to leave the competition.

-Four days before the start of The Games, two Greek baseball players, a
Swiss cyclist, a Spanish canoe team member, and an Irish distance
runner were banned because of doping.

-American runner Torri Edwards was not allowed to compete because she
tested positive for a stimulant at an April race prior to the Olympics.

2. Why does the writer disagree with them?

3. How can sports doping get out of control?

4. What do some parents do about drugs?

5. According to the writer, what is the real problem?

Reading 3:The Real Danger of Sports Doping

Some people ask, «What's wrongwith athletes using drugs to helpthem compete better?» They say,«Even if drugs are dangerous, theathletes choose to take the risk». Inother words, athletes should havecomplete control over their ownbodies. There are several problems withthis argument, however the most important one is that doping creates an unfair environment. Imagine that you and I are runners. I take drugs to help me run faster and I win. You think that you must also take drugs to have a fair chance.

     One can easily see how doping would soon get out of control. If you start doping, I have to find  another way to keep my advantage. Perhaps, I will decide to take more drugs.Maybe I will look for different, stronger drugs to give me a better chance.If I do this, you must follow me or lose. Both of us would continue taking
greater and greater risks.

Multiply this situation by thousands. Expand it from professional
athletes to amateurs, including children. You may be thinking, «Children?
Who lets their children take drugs?» We all know parents who want their
children to win at all costs. For them, there is no coach that is too
expensive; no amount of practice that is too much; no sacrifice that is too
great.

These parents let their children take drugs to improve their chances.
After all, they might win a professional career, a college scholarship, or at
leastbragging rights for their proud parents.

In the end, of course, the real problem is not the doping. It is the
win-at-all-costs attitude. The importance of winning in sports is more
important than ever before. With the high value on winning, doping is
unavoidable. We can ban drugs. We can test athletes. We can even stop
them from competing, but we will never solve the problem until we change
our attitudes.

IX. Reading 4: Popular English Sports and Games

England is a sports-loving nation and when they are neither playing nor watching  games they like to talk about them and to discuss the major sporting competitions as the greatest events of the day.

If you ask the British to name their most favourite sports they may name football, cricket and tennis, though many of them go in for golf and hockey, athletics and climbing, rugby and rowing. Horse-racing, dog-racing and motor racing are also among the most popular sports in Great Britain.

Britain invented and developed many of the sports and games which are now played all over the world. Association football, or «soccer», is one of them. As an organized game it appeared in the middle of the 19 th century, but in fact the game is much older. Probably Roman soldiers brought it to England 2000 years ago. Most British cities and towns have a football team. Every year each team plays in the Football Association Сompetitions .The two best teams play in the Cup  Final  at the Wembley Stadium near London which holds 100.000 spectators. Some fans pay up to   250 for a ticket for the Cup Final. It is one of the biggest sporting events of the year.

Another popular game appeared in 1859, when a teacher at Rugby school, while playing football, decided that it would be better to pick up the ball 4 and run with it. That is why the game took the name of rugby or «rugger». The rules of the game are different from football. There are 15 or 13 players instead of 11 in a team. The ball is oval, not round and a player is allowed to take the ball in his hands and run with it. He may also attack his opponent; hold him by the shoulders or by the legs. Rugby is a violent game and it is highly popular in many regions of the country especially in Wales.

Cricket is England's national summer game. It appeared in the 18th century. There are two teams of eleven players: one man the «bowler»  throws the ball and the «batsman» hits it with his bat. Cricket is a very long game. The most important matches can last from one to five days..

Golf is another kind of sports that is truly British.  The game is played by striking a ball with a special golf club round a golf course with 18 holes. The golf player should push the ball into a hole in the ground with as few strokes as possible . You need a special field for this game, so golf is rather expensive. Now it is played mostly in private clubs and is the sport of the rich.

Lawn tennis was also born in England at the end of the 19th century. The game soon spread all over the world.   Every summer, in June, the biggest international tennis tournament takes place at Wimbledon near London.

Some people say that horse-racing is the king of sports in Great Britain and others call it the sport of the kings. Only rich people can afford to 8go in for this kind of sport and only the rich can afford to buy tickets for the most famous races.

Swimming is also very popular. The British think that swimming is one of the most beneficial sports. Millions of people enjoy swimming both as a recreational activity and as a competitive sport.

Rowing is the most popular of all kinds of sports at the oldest English Universities. The University Boat Race 9is a traditional sporting competition between Oxford and Cambridge which is held on the Thames every spring.

The British are very sporting people. About 50 per cent of the populations of the United Kingdom (some 29 mln adults and 7 mln children) participate in some sports or recreational activity. Among the most popular sporting activities also are: walking, hiking, snooker and billiards, darts, athletics, squash and cycling.
