Students in our school have one thing in common-an interest in sports．According to their different aims in doing sports，they fall into three groups．

Many students go to the playground when they feel tired after a few hours of study．These students put much more stress on their study efficiency（效率） than the fun of sports．They just want to go back to their classrooms from the playground with a clearer and quicker mind．So they don't actually care whether they can enjoy themselves on the playground．Most of them choose long-distance running，the kind of exercise which few real sportsmen like．So this group of students can be well regarded as study-oriented participants（参加者）．

Students that make up the second group are real sports lovers．Sometimes they even put aside their studies for a match．They participate in the sport that interests them most，not caring whether it is good for their~ health．They may be called fun-oriented sports participants．

The third group want beauty from sports．Boys want to become strong; girls want to be slim and graceful．Those who consider sports the only way of losing weight also belong to this group．They are very careful in choosing the kind of exercise they do，and are afraid that certain sports may influence their body shapes．The proper name for this group may be beauty-oriented sports participants．

No matter which group we belong to，we all benefit（受益） from sports．If you look around the school yard，you will find that bookworms have disappeared，and instead，there are healthy，strong，clever and modernized students everywhere．
