III. Read the following passage and answer the questions
Some people think that sports and games are unimportant things. In fact, sports and games can be of great value, especially to people working with their brain most of the day.
Sports and games make our bodies strong and keep us healthy. But these are not their only uses. They give us valuable practice in making eyes, brain and muscles work together. For example, in tennis, our eyes see the ball coming, judge its speed and direction and pass this information on to the brain. The brain then has to decide what to do, and send its orders to the muscles of the arms, legs, and so on. So tennis helps train the co-ordination among eyes, brain, arms, and legs.
Sports and games are also useful for character training. In their lessons at school, boys and girls may learn about such virtues as unselfishness, courage discipline, and love of one's country. In sports and games a pupil can really practise these virtues.
