Page 40 - Exercise 3

1) Hi, my name’s Emma. My favorite sports event is the Oxford and Cambridge boat race. It takes place on the River Thames in March. It can be very cold by the river in March. But we always go to watch it. Because my dad went to Oxford University and my mom went to Cambridge. So it’s a family thing. And who do I support? That’s a secret. But I always feel sorry for the losers.

2) Hello, I’m George. What’s my favorite sports event? It’s the London Marathon. I always watch it with my friends. But you see, that’s very easy. Because we live in London and the runners come past my house. So we watch it from my bedroom window. It’s great fun. Some of the runners wear funny clothes. Last year 2 people were dressed as chickens. They looked very funny.

3) Hello, I’m Lucy. I love Wimbledon. I’ve never been there, because we live a long way from London. But I watch it all on TV. I really love it, because I played tennis a lot. At school and at the SportsCenter. I’d really love to be a top tennis player when I’m older. And play at Wimbledon.

4) Hi, my name’s Max. My favorite event is the FA cup final. I like football, I play it at school. But I’m not very good at it. I really like the FA cup. Because three years ago, our team reached the final. And my dad took me to Wembley Stadium to see it. Our team lost. but we still had a great day there.
