Bob is a very active man. He is very strong and healthy. He’d like to take part in an exciting sport. But he is afraid of water.

Simon is very fat. He would like to lose his weight. But he is not interested in double quick and excitement activity. He enjoys water sports.

Mathew hates to take part in the violent sports. He is in poor health. He wants to build up his body.

Jack is brave and risky and a good swimmer. He enjoys water game. He looks for excitement with his friend when they are on holiday.

A. Hiking is a great way to travel. You will get close to nature and take exercise at the same time. Hiking is easy to do and doesn’t have to be very expensive.

You can hike in the mountains, in a forest or along a river. You can also go for a hike in the city. Hiking is fun and exciting, but you shouldn’t forget safety.

B. Rafting is a good way to experience nature. If you want a normal rafting trip, choose a quiet stream or river that is wide and has few fallen trees or rocks. If you are looking for more excitement you may want to try whitewater rafting. You should always think about your safety and wear good clothes. You also need to learn the basic skills of rafting, such as how to handle the raft, how to paddle and how to get in and out of the raft. You should not go rafting unless you know how to swim, and you should always wear a life jacket.

C. Swimming is a good way for swim lovers. You can reduce your weight and become slim by swimming. You can train your willpower and increase your energy of your lung. You can swim in the swimming pool, in the lake, in the river or even in the sea.

D. Long running is a good sport, for example, Marathom is very popular with young people especially people with strong body and will. If you have hypertension or heart disease, perhaps, it is not suitable for you.
