III. Read the following text and complete the statements below.
Sport is one of the UK’s most popular leisure activities, with two-
thirds of all adults taking part in one or more sporting activities. Sadly,
this is not true for children and young adults. Of all sporting activities,
walking is by far the most popular for men and women of all ages. While
men tend to dominate golf and ‘cue sports’ such as snooker and billiards,
women generally prefer swimming, keep-fit classes and yoga. The UK
claims to be among the top five most successful nations in world sport.
UK sportsmen and sportswomen hold over 50 world titles in a variety of
sports, such as professional boxing, modern pentathlon, rowing, snooker,
squash and motorcycle sports. The Government's view is that sport is an
important component of regeneration and can have a beneficial effect in
helping the development of run-down areas.

READING
1. Read the following text and do the following tasks.
For many people in Germany, free time is necessarily spent
outdoors - whatever the time of year. This is why there is never any lack
of things to do. Of course, people in Germany love long, sunny summer
days. That's when nature-lovers really get their money’s worth - days on
the beach in the North Sea and Baltic coastal regions, cycling and boating
in the countryside of northern and eastern Germany with its meadows
and rivers or rambles through the idyllic mountain scenery of the Alps are
what many families choose to do with their free time at that time of year.
Besides these activities, numerous lakes and open-air swimming pools,
summer toboggan runs and rope courses also attract plenty of people on
hot summer days.
In the winter, most people head to regions where there’s plenty of
snow. That's the skiing and snowboard season in the south of Germany
and the regions with low mountains. However, even tight outside
your own front door, frozen lakes and snow-covered slopes offer great
opportunities for ice-skating and sledging enthusiasts. Cold is no problem
with a drink of hot tea, mulled wine, non-alcoholic punch or grog (a
hot drink with rum). You'll find the right equipment as well as ‘warm,
waterproof clothing in any large sports store.
