Processes
Talk about your favourite sport to practice or watch.
You should say:
How often you practice or watch that sport
what makes it interesting
how many people it takes to practice it
and describe how the game, or sport, is practiced or played.
The only sport that I ever really, really, really enjoyed was
PingPang, PingPang is the sense of table tennis. The westerners call
it table tennis, the Chinese call it PingPang. It's the only sport
that I
played when I was younger, and it's the only sport that I continued
watching until... now; until now, yeah. Of course, now I don't
practice it any more. On every rare occasions. I go to stadium to the
games live.
What makes the sport interesting? Perhaps it's the fact that it's so
popular all over China. Hmm... everybody in China knows how to play
PingPang, it's our national sport, The sport is played with two or
four players hitting a ball with rackets back and forth to each other
on a table, in a manner similar to tennis. The rules are slightly
different, but the concept is very similar. In singles play, the serve
is not required to cross from the server's right-hand court to the
receiver's right-hand court (or left to left) as it is in tennis.
However, serving across is required in doubles play. Ball spin, speed,
placement, strategy and tactics play an important part in competitive
table tennis matches. The speed of the ball can vary from slow serves
with much spin to smashes that travel as fast as 112.5 kilometers per
hour (70 mph).
The object is to hit the ball, from one player to the other, any
hitting of the ball must be done such that the ball passes over or
around the net. If the ball is struck such that it travels around the
net, but still lands on the opponent's side of the table, the hit is
legal and play should be continued. If the opponent cannot return it
over (or around) the net and make it bounce on your side, then you win
the point. Of course, that sport is very well known and has lots of
fans all over the world, as ever Chinese knows, and that is what makes
it so interesting to me.
