Tiffany, a 16-year-old girl, was very shy. Last September, her best friend, Sophie, moved abroad with her family because she had to continue her studies in America. She even said she would not come back for at least a few years. “I was really sad the moment I heard the bad news and I didn’t know what to do”, Tiffany recalled （回忆）. “I shut myself in my room for a whole week. It was then that my aunt took me to a sports club one Saturday and I saw so many young people playing various sports there. I signed up for a beginner’s course in volleyball and since then I have been playing this sport. Now I practice twice a week there. It is wonderful playing sports in this club and I have made lots of friends as well.
”
The most basic aim of playing sports is that you can improve your health even if you are not very good at sports. Tiffany used to be a very quiet girl. Since she joined the sports club, she has opened up herself and now she has become very active and enjoys meeting and talking with others. For most people, that is one of the attractions of joining a sports club. You can get to know other young people who have similar interests.
You go in for sports and it is easier to understand your partners on the same team. Now Tiffany is quite popular with her friends and she has also gained more confidence.
The mind needs exercise as well as the body.
| A．Try to do regular sports. |
| B．Tiffany became lonely and helpless. |
| C．You can find what you’re really interested in. |
| D．It was three years later that Sophie came back. |
E. You don’t have to sit down and talk to strangers.
F. What’s more, I feel I am much healthier than before.
G. In addition, you can get to know a circle of people at your age while playing sports.
