Sports change with the seasons. People play different games in winter and summer. Swimming is fun in warm weather, but skating is good in winter. Some sports are so interesting that people everywhere go in for（从事）them. Football, for example, has spread around the world. Swimming is popular in all countries near the sea or in those with many rivers. 3 What fun it is to jump into a pool or lake, whether in China or Australia! And think of people in cold countries. Think how many people love to skate in Japan or Canada. 4 Some sports or games go back to thousands of years ago, like running or jumping. Chinese wushu, for example, has a very long history.
