Writing Task #4 Task Your physical education teacher asked you to write an essay discussing pros and cons of team sports. Write: • whether you and your friends play sports; what sports you play; • whether you like playing in a team or you prefer exercising on your own; • what the advantages and disadvantages of playing sports in a team are; • give advice on how to develop skills working in a team. First of all, we never wrote essays or anything on physical education in our school :) Regarding to the advantages I think that team play may teach to think out of your own mind, improve your intuition (prob. not a word), i. e. your sixth sense. By this I mean that you're starting to predict moves, shifts, even thoughts of your teammates. I filled this when I played in soccer, most popular game in Ukraine. It's a quite interesting expireince and probably every person should have had it. Team play improves your ability to think vastlier (wider?) with no doubts. As of disadvantages I'd say that team play is lack of them. I can't compare a teamplay and sole play, as they both are good and helthy ways of time spending. Maybe I should've played in team more in my childhood to know the answer, who knows :D. As of me I like team games more. Maybe just because all the responsibility in case of losing spreads among all the players (I was playing norm btw). I think it's a big advantage. To play nicely and cool in a team you must think about whole team as every part there matters and has its influence. Achieving of this can take a lot of time and practice.
