四、阅读并回答问题
all over the world people enjoy sports. sports help people to keep healthy, happy and help them to live longer.
sports change with reason. people play different games in winter and summer. games and sports often grow out of people’s work and everyday activit ies. they arabs use horses or camels in much of their everyday life; they use them in their sports, too.
some sports are so interesting that people everywhere go in for them. football for example, has spread around the world. swimming is popular in all countries near the sea or in those with many rivers.
some sports or games go back thousands of years，like running or jumping. chinese boxing, for example, has a very lon g h istory. but basketball and volleyball are rather new. neither one is a hundred years yet. people are inviting new spo rts or games all the time.
