    Greenwood Square is the best place to go on weekends. I like going there 1 Saturday mornings. I always get up at six in the morning and have my 2 very quickly because I want to go there to play sports. Sometimes, I play badminton or ping-pong but my favourite sport is basket- ball. I like 3 it with my friends. Of all my friends, Greg Chen is the best basketball player. He is a 15-year-old 4. He always teaches me how to play it well. I really enjoy 5 with him. There is 6 across 7 the square. We always get some food there when we are hungry. It is pretty good to play sports there. If you always do so, you will become 8.

    Fred is a sports fan(迷). He likes all kinds of sports games. He never plays football, but he knows much about it. When there is a football game on TV, he watches it. Sometimes he does not go to school.

    One day, there are two games on TV. One is at 8:00 in the morning, and the other begins at two in the afternoon. Fred decides to stay at home for the whole day.

    At 7:30, Fred's mother comes to Fred. She sees him still in bed.

    "Is there anything wrong with you?" she asks.

    "I am not feeling well," Fred answers.

    "Shall I take you to the doctor?" she asks.

    "No. Don't worry, Mum. I will be OK soon," says Fred.

    "Then I'll go to work. My students are waiting for me," she says. "If you really feel bad, do call me. OK?"

    Fred's mother hurries out of the room. Now Fred gets out of his bed quickly.

    He turns on the TV and sits in front of it. How exciting the game is! He forgets all about his lessons.

    To his surprise, his mother comes back for the key to her office.

    "Are you really ill?" she asks.

    "Well, er... I'm all right now. Sports is good medicine," Fred says.
