10. Reading. Summer and winter sports

  

 

Sports and games are a great way to spend time and get healthier. Doing sports unites people of different cultures, skin colour and social class.
 
Among all summer sports cycling, swimming, rollerblading and ball games are the most popular. Children and adults like doing these sports and play games outdoors when the weather is good.

 

Winter sports are especially popular in the countries with suitable climate. In Russia people love skiing, ice-skating, snowtubing as well as hockey. Children often go sledging with their parents and friends.

 

There are sports you can do indoors all year round, like boxing, running as well as tennis, table tennis, badminton and various ball games.
 
Besides, there are some relatively new sport activities like aerobics or pilates. Aerobics was founded by doctors Kenneth Cooper and Pauline Potts and was made popular by Jane Fonda and her famous video Workout. Also more and more people are becoming keen on yoga these days.
