Exercise 4, Skills 2, page LP2.0:01
Speaker A: I only started taking part in diving competitions quite recently.0:06
Last year, I actually won a gold medal in a big event.0:13
It was such an amazing feeling, but I have to say it wasn't easy.0:17
I started training for the event months ago.0:21
I went to the pool every day for 2 hours before college, and then again after lessons.0:24
It was really hard work, but it was worth it.0:30
Speaker B: I'm quite a sporty person, but I've never felt attracted by all these crazy adrenaline sports, like hang gliding and rock climbing.0:35
I just don't see the point of putting yourself in so much danger.0:44
I once went white water rafting, and I just felt really stressed out as we raced down the river bumping into all the rocks.0:48
Speaker:SEEMA] It seems like all my friends have signed up to this new exercise class recently.0:57
All the local gyms are offering it.1:05
It's sort of a cross between aerobics and dance.1:07
My friends have told me that it includes other elements such as hip-hop, salsa, belly dancing, and even martial arts.1:11
I can understand why so many people like it.1:18
It sounds like a lot of fun.1:20
I've wanted to open my own outdoor activity centre for ages, but now a friend and I are finally going to make it happen.1:26
We're going to have a climbing wall, an outdoor swimming pool, and many other exciting activities.1:35
I can't wait for our opening day.1:42
Hopefully, it'll be sometime next year.1:44
Don't get me wrong, I do try to stay fit.1:51
I walk everywhere and go to the gym a few times a week.1:54
When it comes to team sports, though, I've always been more of a spectator than a participant.1:57
My favourite sport of all is ice hockey.2:02
I have a season ticket to see all my team's matches.2:05
It's such a fast, exciting game with loads of action, and there's always a great atmosphere among the supporters.2:08
This is the end of the task.2:14
You now have 20 seconds to check your answers.2:17
