Doing sports and watching sport on TV both have definitive benefits for a student.
Doing sports can be considered a very healthy way of living as those that do sports are less likely to die from health problems. Another advantage of doing sports is making new friends and being sociable with other around you. It is also considered good for mental health and the body. On the other hand, there are also advantages for watching sports on TV. Firstly, it saves money and secondly it can be a way of motivation to move and proceed to carry out the sport being watched. Watching sports can improve the ability of communication and help you stay organised. So, if you are thinking about either watching sport or doing sport, they both have their benefits.
Do a poem
Their fur as white as snow
Their hops as cute as thymes
Who could this be?
This animal I can't see
They seem to be huge and wild
Acting like a human on two legs
With their grow as loud as an alarm
