Sports are perhaps the most popular form of relaxation that almost all can enjoy. Some people seem to think that sports and games are unimportant things that people do at times when they are not working. But in fact sports and games can be of great value, especially to people who work with their brains most of the day. They should not be treated only as ammusements. Sports and games build our bodies, prnt us from getting too fat, and keep us healthy. They also give us valuable practice in ing the eyes, brain and muscles to work together. In table tennis, the eyes see the ball coming,judge its speed and direction, and pass the information on to the brain. The brain has to decide what to do and sends its orders to the muscles of the arms legs and so on, so that the ball is met and hit back where the player wants it to do. All this must happen with very great speed, and only those who have had a lot of practice can do this successlly. Sports and games are also very usel for character-training. In their lessons, boys and girls may learn about such virtues as unselfishness courage disciple and love of one's country, but what is learned in books can not have the same deep effect on a child's character as what is learned through practice. Most of students' time is spent in classes, studying lessons. So what the students do in their spare time is of great importance. If each of them learns to go all out for his team and not for himself on the sports field, he will later find it natural to work for the good of society, for the good of his country. [点评] 此文对体育运动的态度是非常肯定：它不仅有助于我们的身体健康，而且建造我们的性格与品德。道理明确，令人信服，只是所举例子和所用词语有一定的专业性，可作为背景材料。 [参考译文] 体育运动 世界上有许多的人参加不同种类的体育运动。体育运动可能是几乎所有的人都可享受的最大众化的娱乐形式。 有些人似乎认为体育运动不是什么重要的事情，只是人们在不干活的时候才去做的。但实际上，体育运动对人们益处很大。特别是对那些一整天从事脑力劳动的人来说，更是这样。不能把它们单纯看成是娱乐。 体育运动能增强我们的体质，防止发胖，保持身体健康。他们还在使眼睛、头脑和肌肉协同动作方面提供宝贵的锻炼机会。打乒乓球时，眼睛看到球打过来，要判断速度和方向，再把这个传到大脑，这时大脑得决定怎么办，并给胳臂、腿等部位的肌肉发出命令，以便接到球，并把球打回到打球人要它到的地方。所有这一切的反应都要非常迅速。只有那些打乒乓球训练有素的人，才能成功地做到。 体育运动还有利于品格的培养。孩子们在课堂上可能学到关于无私、勇敢、守纪和爱国等品德。但是书本上学的东西对孩子品格的影响不可能和亲身体验中学来的东西影响一样深刻。学生大部分在校时间都用在上课。因此，学生的课余时间的活动至关重要。如果每个人在运动场上认识到是为自己的球队而不是为个人而拼搏，日后他就会感到，为社会利益，为国家利益而工作是理所当然的。
