1. What do the teenagers have in common?

2. Why does each one of them do sports?

What is the main reason?

Paul (15, a football player): For me, football is much more interesting than music or videos — it definitely comes first. But I’m not just a football fan. I’m a player as well. I practise my skills every day in the garden or down on the field. I train hard twice a week and on Sundays. I have been playing for nine years now, and I’d like to become a professional. Football is great and exciting. Recently I’ve won the Player of the Year Award. I’ve also been on TV and on the Chelsea football programme.

Danny (a teenage surf instructor): Surfing is such a great sport. I don’t need much to be happy. The ocean, waves, sunny weather and my surfboard make me happy. I enjoy catching and riding a wave. Sometimes dolphins ride the waves with me and my friends. We feel safe when they’re around. But every time I go out of the water, I’m so glad to be alive.

Surfing makes me appreciate¹ my life.

Steve (13, a hockey fan): I’m from Quebec, home of the Montreal Canadiens, the most successful professional hockey team. That’s why I’m fond of hockey. I’ve loved hockey since I was three years old.

Though I’m not good at playing I know everything about hockey, the teams and the players. I enjoy watching the game. I’m sure that the speed of the game on the ice has made hockey one of the most popular game in the world.

I hope to become a referee when I’m an adult.

Natasha (13, a figure skater): I love figure skating more than anything. It was my elder sister who first took me to the skating rink. Now I skate four times a week and I never get bored of it. The ice, the music, the dance — it’s like a fairy tale. And I’ve been very lucky — I’ve had a wonderful coach. I’d like to become a coach too.

I’m from a small town, so I travel to Moscow and back each week — but I love skating, it’s so worth it!
