Most of my classmates like to play sports because the sport is fun and it can make us more bearable and stronger. They love sports because it brings people together and makes us kinder, helps us not to be weak and inactive. Some boys enjoy playing hockey for its severity, team play and team spirit, for those moments when it seems that it is the only and not a repeatable match in your life. But other classmates prefer playing computer games and eating a lot of fast food instead of doing sports, though it's not useful. I believe that they should not do so because doing sports and eating healthy food, spending more time in the fresh air is more pleasant and much more useful.
Большинство моих одноклассников любят заниматься спортом, потому что это весело, и это может сделать нас более выносливыми и сильными. Они любят спорт, потому что он объединяет людей и делает добрее нам не быть слабыми и вялыми. Некоторым ребятам нравится играть в хоккей за его строгость, командную игру и командный дух, за те моменты, когда кажется, что это единственный и не повторимый матч в жизни. Но некоторые одноклассники предпочитают играть в компьютерные игры и есть фаст-фуд, а не заниматься спортом, хотя это и не полезно. Я считаю, что они не должны этого делать, потому что заниматься спортом и есть здоровую пищу, проводить больше времени на свежем воздухе приятнее и гораздо полезнее.
