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．

There are forty-eight students in our class. There are twenty-three boys and twenty-five girls. Some students live near the school, and some others live very far from the school. About half of the students come to school by bike. They often get to school at a quarter to seven. About ten students often come to school by bus. They often go to school very early, too. Another ten students come to school on foot. Their homes are near the school, but they are often late for school, because they get up very late.

 Every year, over 40,000 secondary students in Britain run a business. "Each business runs for one 
year," said Ben,one of the group of students visiting Shanghai. "When we started our business, we 
borrowed money from parents and friends. At the end of the year,these people will receive some of the 
profits(利润) ."I asked Ben if running a business was difficult.He said that it was no problem. He said
that they always received a lot of advice from teachers and business people.
     Another member of the group,Regina,told me the four questions they always asked themselves.
The questions are:
      l. What do people want to buy?
     2. Where is a good place to sell the product?
     3. How is our product better than other products? 
     4. How much is the product?
     I was also very interested in how the group was organized.Regina said that there were usually about 
five to seven students in each business and among them were one manager and one accountant (会计).
I asked them who was the manager."I am,of course,"said Regina. "It was my idea to produce picture 
books,"she said. "They have been very popular with the other students." I also asked the students what 
other people sold. "Other groups in our school sell things like T-shirts, videos and computer games,"said 
Ben.
     "How much money do the businesses usually make?" I asked."Some businesses make;$20,000—$30,000  but most groups make a small profit of about $ 1,000一 $ 3,000," said Regina.I asked them what they did with the profits. "We can do what we like with the profits."However,Regina told me that it was important not to waste the money. She always told the other groups to give the money to charity.
