Daily IELTS Answer – Sports (Band 7.0 – Part 3)

What are the benefits of sports?

“Firstly, it gives your health a boost. Secondly, it helps to motivate people so it gives them more discipline and we can increase the chance of bringing people together. Here in Brazil, there are many groups of elderly people practising sports on the squares and I think it’s a good way for them to socialise and to make friends also.”

  • Collocation: give a boost – “it gives your health a boost.”

  • Grammar: increase the chance of bringing – increase the chance of (gerund) – “we can increase the chance of bringing people together.”

“Surely, it’s an amazing thing they should practice not only at school but also in their free time. firstly because it helps them to make friends, develop a sense of competition. Secondly because it helps to decrease the level of child[hood] obesity which is very frequently. Finally, children need to spend time is by doing sports instead of watching TV or watching the iPad screen.”

  • Collocation: develop a sense of (noun) – “develop a sense of competition / camaraderie/ self.”

What are the differences between watching sport on TV and in person?

“Firstly, going to the stadium is much more interesting than watching it on TV, you can feel the energy of the fans, you can feel close to the players, you can shout and participate. Secondly, it’s a way of spending time with others, so you can go with your friends, while staying home you can’t make many new friends. Finally, it’s a wonderful way for the government to improve these events so it can create a sense of community that you can’t get at home.”
