Task I. Read the guide “Activities All”, If you want to get some exercise or take part in a sport, there are lots of choices.
Read our guide to help you choose the activity that's right for you!
A Hang-gliding
If you're looking for a bit of risk, hang-gliding might be for you! It can be
expensive, but there's nothing like flying above the countryside. There are clubs all
round the country which will give you training. You need to be in shape before you
start and you need quite a bit of free time, but it's a great hobby.
B Karate
It's not as violent as it looks, but you do need to be quite fit. Most clubs organise
competitions against other local clubs, and it doesn't cost much to get started. Why
not give it a go? You could be a black belt before you know it!
C Yoga
Yoga is an easy form of exercise for people of any age. A teacher shows you and
the rest of your group how to move your body slowly to help you relax. It can even
help with problems with different parts of your body.
D Cycling
Your local cycling club is a great place to make new friends and get yourself back
in shape. All you need is a bike, a helmet, and lots of enthusiasm. Clubs organise
exciting rides around the local area, from easy ones to more difficult ones.
Everyone helps everyone else and it can be a great day out.
E Gymnastics
In gymnastics, you perform to music. You need to have a good sense of balance,
and the younger you are, the better. You usually join a class, so you get to know
people, and clubs often have competitions with other clubs, sometimes even in
other countries.
F Fishing
Fishing is a fantastic way to get away from it all. If your idea of a great day out is
just you and the fish, out in the country, away from people, then fishing will suit
you. Whether you go for just an hour or spend the whole day catching fish, it's an
activity that thousands of people love.
Task II. The people below are all looking for a new activity to do. There are
six descriptions of different activities. Decide which activity (A-F) would be
