- Hello!

Today, we're going to have a short questionnaire, which can show what
personality type in sports you are.
- Wow, that sounds great! I would like to try it.
- Ok. Well, the first question: If you play a game with a young relative, would you: A)
lose just to be nice; B) try to win a game; or C) play so that there will a draw?
- Hmm…, let me see, I’d choose A, because I understand that it’s more important for younger
to win than for me.
- Right. So, let’s turn to the next question: If you lose a game, would you: A) not mind at
all; B) get upset, but quickly get over it; or C) stay visibly upset for the rest of the day?
- Well, this question is quite difficult, but I think, I’d better do B. I don’t stay upset all day. I
should concentrate on other things.
- Fine. Here’s the third question: If you are invited to a new restaurant that has no
menu but offers a tasting selection of world foods, would you: A) go along and try
everything on offer; B) Go for a meal but give the waiter a specific list of your likes
and dislikes; or C) Politely refuse?
- Ok. Let me see, I want to choose variant C. I don’t like to go to the unfamiliar and strange
places.
- Right. Then, answer this question, please: If you start a new undertaking, would you:
A) weigh the pros and cons and consult experienced people; B) rely on luck and ignore
possible failures; or C) need the guidance of someone you respect, trust?
- That’s a tricky question, I’m not sure, but I’d choose A, because I must know everything to
run a good and legal business.
- Yeah, that’s good. So, here’s another one: If you work in a team, would you: A) take a
backseat and let someone more keen do the majority of the work; B) insist on doing
everything yourself; C) contribute an equal amount compared with everyone else?
- Uh-huh, then, I’d do variant C. As for me, everyone should have his\her tasks.
- Well, and the last one: If you have a new groupmate, would you: A) ignore he\she
completely; B) chat with him\her for a bit, then leave he\she alone; or C) invite him\her
to a party?
- Let me think… I wouldn’t choose A and B, but I’d do C.
- OK. Thank you for your answers. Would you like to know the results and what your
answers mean?
- Surely. So, what are they?
- Well, to start with, your answers were A and B for the first two questions. That’s why I
can say that you’re non-competitive person. What about the third and the fourth
questions, you chose variants C and A. This means that you are not risk-taking and
you’d better take a relax or have a calm holiday. And the last two answers…. Emmm,
what did you choose, let me see…
- I chose C and C.
- OK. Thank you. So, it shows that you are very social person and like to communicate
with other people.
- Oh, that’s true about me, because I am a quiet person, but I am not so non-competitive, as I
like to take challenges and compete.
- That’s great. I’m sure the most suitable sports for you are yoga, jogging and
badminton, because you prefer individual sports. Yet, snowboarding and white-water
rafting aren’t for you. It’s too adventurous.
- Hmmm. Thank you for your advice. It was such an interesting experience.
- Yeah, I was glad to help you.
