Many people play sport, but very few people become sports experts. If sport isn't going to be your future, then why should you play it Why should you do sport every day Why should you work hard and feel sore(酸痛的)the next day Wouldn't it be better to forget sport and only pay attention to your lessons In fact, there are many reasons to do sport.
First of all, sport is a great way to exercise. Exercising keeps you fit. It also helps you stay in good condition(状态). When you exercise, your body makes endorphins(内啡肽). The more endorphins your body produces, the happier and more active you will be.
Also, sport teaches young people how to get on with others and work as a team. It teaches young people to respect their teachers, teammates and players from the other team. Sport can help young people stay out of trouble. If a young person does sport, he or she may have fewer problems. This is because sport teaches people about rules. It also teaches people that if they work hard, they might succeed.
Another good reason of sport is that it makes people leave their houses. These days, many people spend too much time watching TV and playing vided games. When you do sport , you go outside and exercise in the sun. You take in fresh air. All of these things are important.
Maybe you're not going to become a sports expert, but that doesn't matter. Sport will help you become a better and happier person.
