Read the passage and answer the questions.
1. Who do the Laureus World Sports Awards honour
The Laureus World Sports Awards honour remarkable sportspeople who inspire others.
2. What other sports role models do you know Share some examples with the class.
A sports role model is a sportsperson
who inspires other people in a certain
way. In this spirit, the Laureus World
Sports Awards is an annual ceremony
to honour remarkable sportspeople.
The first ceremony was held in 2000
in Monaco, where Pelé was given the
Lifetime Achievement Award. In 2003,
Yao Ming became the first Chinese
sportsperson to win the award, and in
Shanghai in 2015 Yao Ming and Li Na
both won awards. These sports role
models show us what sporting spirit
really means – that is, faster, higher
and stronger!

Listening materials
Sam: Michelle, are you going to watch the Laureus World Sports Awards on TV this evening
Michelle: Of course. I watch this show every year. Wouldn't miss it!
Sam: So, some of the names nominated for Sportsman of the Year are Usain Bolt the runner, LeBron James the basketball player and Andy Murray the tennis player. Who do you think should win
Michelle: Well, I don't think it should be Usain Bolt. He's already won this award three times.
Sam: Are you serious ! Lightning Bolt holds the world record for the 100 metres and the 200 metres. He also holds the world record for being part of the 4 x 100 metres relay. Of course he should win!
Michelle: Well, I just think other people should be given a chance.
Sam: So, who would be your choice
Michelle: Personally, I hope Andy Murray wins. After all, he's the only tennis player to have won two Olympic singles titles. Besides, he is a spokesperson for women players’ equality. He believes that women should have the same rights as men in sports. That’s why he has lots of fans.
Sam: Yes, Andy Murray could have a good chance. But the winner shouldn’t be chosen based on their number of fans. I think LeBron James might have a better chance.
Michelle: Well, it definitely shouldn’t be LeBron James. I mean, he is not that famous.
Sam: What ! He is one of the biggest names in basketball. LeBron is world-famous! He has Olympic gold medals and National Basketball Association championships—in fact, he led his home town basketball team to win its first NBA Championship in 2016. You see, he’s also an excellent team leader as well as a great player.
Michelle: OK, OK—1 didn’t know that! Well, all of them seem to have a good chance of winning. Now I really can’t wait for the results!
