[POINT]Point

Young people can be encouraged to play more sport by making it easier, cheaper and more enjoyable.

Schools and local communities can offer sports clubs, affordable access to facilities and positive role models.

[EXAMPLE]Example

Free after-school sessions or friendly competitions may attract students who are not interested in formal teams.

What kinds of sport do people in your country most often watch on TV? Why?

Người dân ở nước bạn thường xem những loại thể thao nào trên truyền hình? Tại sao?

[POINT]Point

Football is probably the sport people most often watch on TV in my country, followed by major international events in other sports.

[EXPLAIN]Explain

Fans tune in because live matches create excitement and a strong sense of shared experience.

[EXAMPLE]Example

Important football games can keep viewers on the edge of their seat, especially when national teams or famous clubs are playing.

What do you think are the disadvantages of having a lot of coverage of sports on TV?

Bạn nghĩ sao về những nhược điểm của việc phát sóng quá nhiều sự kiện thể thao trên truyền hình?

[POINT]Point

Too much sports coverage can reduce variety and make television overly focused on a few popular competitions.

[EXPLAIN]Explain

Commercial pressure may encourage channels to repeat similar content because it attracts large audiences and advertising.

[EXAMPLE]Example

Important cultural or educational programmes may receive less attention during major tournaments.

[EXTEND]Extend

However, viewer choice has improved through streaming and multiple channels, so the problem is smaller when audiences can easily select different types of content.

Viewers may choose camera angles, receive real-time data and use personalised feeds rather than watching one fixed television signal.

[EXAMPLE]Example

Fans could follow a single player or see live statistics on a screen while the match continues.

[EXTEND]Extend

Immersive viewing through virtual or augmented reality may also grow, although traditional live broadcasts will probably remain popular because they are simple and social.

Why do you think international sports competitions (like the Football World Cup) are so popular?

Theo bạn, tại sao các giải đấu thể thao quốc tế (như World Cup bóng đá) lại phổ biến đến vậy?

People who rarely watch football may still support their national team during a major tournament.
