Sports are a favourite pastime for many teenagers. Even those
who don't actively participate in a sport enjoy taking part as a
spectator. Baseball may go as far back as the American Revo-
lution. The sport evolved gradually from two British games
cricket and rounders. Football, which came to America about
1870 developed from rugby, an English game derived from soc-
cer. James Naismith invented basketball, a physically demanding
winter sport that doesn't involve kicking or hitting a ball. The
rules for all of these games have changed gradually to make
the action more intense, the competition more balanced, and the
game safer.

existence.

Hi Tom,

I hope you're doing well. It's great to hear that you've passed your exams! I know that you have deserved a good rest.

Thank you for inviting me - I would like to go on a hike with you. As for the equipment, I can bring my sleeping bag, two sleeping mats and a lantern. I think I could also borrow a coolbox from a friend of mine. We could keep some food there.

Could you tell me when exactly are you planning to go? Who is going with you? Are they anybody I know? I wonder if you have planned any hiking route already. Please let me know if you have!

I'll be looking forward to your answer.

All the best,

Paula
