Do sports play a positive role in today's society?

 

POINTS:

 

Sports play a very important role in today's society. Not only can we learn many things through sports, but big sporting events bring us positive economic effects to an area involved. Also, doing sports can keep us healthy. This essay will look at how important sports are in today's society.

 

First of all, we can learn important things through sports. When we play some team sports, we will learn how important it is to work together and help other teammates if we want to win the competition. Also, by playing with other people, we learn to be considerate to other teams or our team mates.

 

Second, a big sporting event, such as the Olympics can bring big economic effects to a host country. Since people from all over the world take part in, or watch the international sporting events, the host country will have opportunities to show its tourist spots or historical places, to provide accommodations, and to sell souvenirs.

 

Last, we can keep good health by playing sports. Today, we tend to have a sedentary lifestyle, working at a computer and watching TV after work. As a result, it is said that an increasing number of people don't do enough exercise. Sports can give us more changes to work out.

 

In conclusion, sports are beneficial to anyone and any society. Not only can we learn many things through sports, but they bring immerse effects to the society and help us maintain good health. Needless to say, sports have a leading part in today's society.

Most people have played sports in their life, but I believe only a few of them have ever thought deeply about the role that sports play in today's society. Here are my thoughts on how sports can bring us benefits and make our life enjoyable.

 

Needless to say, doing exercise is good for the health. An increasing number of people today suffer from obesity or diabetes, which are often blamed on lack of exercise and unbalanced diets. Also, modern people are so busy at work or at school that they feel stress, often causing some mental problems. By playing sports regularly, however, those people can refresh themselves mentally, while they can stay in good shape.

 

Second, sports can teach us important things in life. When playing in a team, we can learn the importance of teamwork to win a game. Even when we lose a game, we learn to deal with the failure and move on to the next goal together with other teammates.

 

Lastly, international sporting events like the Olympics play an important part in today's society. The host country can boost its economy by inviting tourists from both within and outside the country. Also international competitions can help us understand other countries. They give us the opportunities to interact with people with different cultures and different perspectives, which help us learn to understand the problems they face back in their countries.

 

In summary, sports are an integral part of today's society. They help us stay healthy, learn values in life, and above all, boost the local economy.
