Besides "the big three" sports, Americans play a variety of other sports. In warm weather, people enjoy water sports. Lovers of surfing, sailing and scuba diving flock to the ocean. Swimmers and water skiers also revel in the wet stuff. From the first snowfall, skiers hit the slopes. Frozen ponds and ice rinks become playgrounds for skating and hockey. People play indoor sports whatever the weather. Racquetball, weightlifting and bowling are year-round activities. 除了這‘三大運動’,美國人還做許多其它的運動。天熱時,他們喜歡水上運動。沖浪、駕帆船和潛水的愛好者群集于海中。游泳和滑水者,也縱情于水中。從下雪的頭一天起,滑雪者便登上雪坡。結了冰的池塘和溜冰場成了溜冰和冰上曲棍球的場地。不論氣候如何,人們都從事戶內運動。回力球、舉重和保齡球都是全年性的活動。 |
