Originally the word "volunteer" is of Latin origin: «voluntarius» ( «volunteer" or "interested person"). In Russian it is considered borrowed from the French «volontaire», meaning a person who voluntarily entered the military service. As you may recall from history until the French Revolution in 1792 in the royal army consisted exclusively of mercenaries. French Commune was the cause of its collapse. But pretty soon it took the French military - to the state borders reached the Austrian troops. As a result, the male population voluntarily recorded in the ranks of the defenders of the homeland. That's when the word came into use. Peasants, workers and artisans of their own accord donned military coats, began to call volunteers. An interesting fact is that the soldiers themselves appoint a military commander. And in the case of dissatisfaction with his work, could be dismissed from service.
I am fond of sports. Sports make us stronger and healthier. Many people do sports, so do I. I like to swim in the swimming pool and in the sea in the summer. I also like badminton and volleyball. Cycling is another favourite sport of mine. There are also mental sports, chess for example. Chess games improve the work of our brain, so this game is very useful too. In winter I prefer skiing. It is very good to ski in the fresh winter air. But we must remember that any sport is good if you practise it regularly.
