W: What sports do you often go in for, Mr. Clinton?
M: Oh, football—both kinds, you know, soccer and rugby. I play quite a bit of cricket, too. Do you like sports, too, Miss Li?
W: Yes, very much. I play basketball, but my favourite sport is table-tennis. What’s your favourite sport?
M: Mine is football. It’s the best way to build up your health, I think.
W: That’s true. I’m interested in it, too.
M: Is football very popular in China now?
W: Not really. In fact, only in recent years have people taken an interest in football. It’s getting more and more popular, though. What about watching the football match tomorrow evening? I’ve got two tickets.
M: Why, yes, that’ll be nice. Thank you.
W: By the way, people say in Britain there are many football fans behaving as troublemakers. Is that true?
M: Yes, sometimes. In fact, only a few get out of control.
W: British people have a keen interest in the game, as I can see.
M: Right! Football fans are so dedicated that they travel hundreds of miles to see their favourite team in action and cheer it on to victory.
