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（參加者）．

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．

Today we find that school students hardly spend much time on sports. Is it because they aren't interested in sports? No, they often say they have other more important things to do.

       What are these important things? Exams! They have to spend much time on all kinds of exams at school. So many of them almost become bookworms(書呆子) . Books stop them from going out for sports. Because of the pressure from their parents and teachers, the students have to work harder and spend most of their time on books. As for the students, they want to get good results so that they can improve their studies. So it is necessary for them to give all of their free time to their studies and stop their school sports.

       In fact, education（教育）can't go without enough exercises, because a quick mind hardly goes along with a weak body. If you don't have a strong body, you can never get anything or any great success in your life.
