萨拉,36岁,蒙特利尔
就在不久前,我还什么运动也不做——甚至都不会去慢跑!后来我发现了一款名为“奔跑的力量”的应用软件,它会按照跑步的表现把你和你社交网络上的其他跑步者进行排名。起初,我坚持跑步只是为了看到自己能够进入前五名。很快,我发现不只是我有这样的目的——我遇到了和我住在同一区域且有着同样目的的其他跑步者!虽然现在我已经不再用这款应用软件了,但是我已经爱上了跑步,现在依然和我的“跑友”们一起跑步。

The Sport I Like Best
When it comes to sports, I like basketball best. It is a ball game between two teams, each consisting of five players. It requires speed, strength, talent as well as skills.
Basketball has been an important part in my life ever since I was introduced to it at the age of 9. For one thing, it helps build up my body, enabling me to be energetic all the time. For another, it has taught me to value teamwork over individual performance.
Basketball fills my days with wonders and challenges. I will keep playing basketball in the rest of my life.
Thanks
