These days it is found that school students hardly have any sports. Is it because they have no in sports? It may not be true. They often say they have more important things to do.
What are these important things? Exams! They have to __ themselves ready for all kinds of exams and tests in school. So many of them almost become bookworms(书呆子). In the past in the summer holidays, they could do they liked, but now they have to spend all their time preparing for exams. So have kept them away from going in for sports.
Because of the pressure from parents and teachers, they have to work harder and spend most of their time __ books. As for the students themselves, they don’t want to the lessons because they want to further their studies. So it is necessary to give all of their spare time to their studies and up their school sports.
It’s true a good education cannot go without physical training, the same is true, a quick mind hardly goes along with a body. Without a strong body, you can never do anything well, how can you make great success in life?
