A National Sport in Greece – Football

There are many sports in Greece like basketball and water polo but the most popular is football. Football is a team sport that you can play in a pitch, also known as a football pitch. The laws of the game set out the basic equipment which must all players have: a shirt, shorts, socks, footwear and shin pads. Goalkeepers must wear thracksuit bottoms and not only shorts like the other players. There are many football rules like players mustn’t hit the other team players because if they do it they take a penalty but generally all players must respect the other. Football is popular because we meet other people so we make new friends, we learn new things, we learn how to respect the rules and more. Generally, all people must understand that all the sports are very good for our health and that all of us must exercise often.

Football

Hi! My name is Jim. The most popular sport in Greece is football. There are 2 teams. Every team has 11 players. The aim of the game is to kick the ball and try to score a goal in the opponent’s net. If one player hits another player or touches the ball by using his hands it’s a foul. The duration of a football match is 90 minutes. The passion that every fan has towards the sport is something that keeps their enthusiasm alive. Football is full of action and thrilling moments. I love football because it made me feel happy every day!

In another myth of ancient Greece a big dragon is the guard of the Golden Fleece. This is the skin of a big, golden ram, which was sent by Zeus to take two kids, Phrixus and his sister Ellie, away from their mean stepmother, who wanted to kill them.

When Phrixus arrived in a faraway country, Colchida, the king welcomed him as a special guest. He sacrificed the holy animal ad took its golden skin. Then he hung it on a big tree and ordered a terrifying sleepless dragon to guard it. That dragon had to defeat Jason and his crew to take the golden fleece and save their country.

Mobile phone

Did you know that there are over 5 billion phones in the world; mobile are more commonly used in our work to communicate with other people, to carry out difficult or repetitive tasks. However, people do not always agree on whether using phones is a good thing.
There are a number of benefits to using phones. Mobile use increases efficiency so you don’t have to go out to pay your bills but you can do it online and factories are able to promote new electronics faster and easier. Moreover, the number of employees needed to do a task is reduced. Therefore profits increase for the company.
However, the use of phones has its drawbacks. For one thing, phones tend to be quite expensive to buy and maintain. As a result, large financial investments are required. In addition, the use of mobile phones means that there are fewer obligations for a person.
To conclude, although there are disadvantages to using phones, I believe that the benefits far outweigh them. Technology is an important part of our world today and if we use it wisely, our daily lives will be easier and less stressful.
