There is an example at the beginning (0).
What do you know about Robert Ingram? You probably remember seeing him on television driving his racing
car. He loves driving and he’s very good at it, but Robert doesn’t only do that. He does other sports, too. He can
swim, and he likes cycling a lot, so he does triathlons. He does them at least twice a year and he trains every
day. He sometimes trains for fifteen or twenty hours a week and he always goes to the gym with his wife. Going
to the gym and doing triathlon helps him for racing, too, because he needs a strong body.
He’s British but he lives in California because he can train in summer and winter there. In Britain, however, the
weather is usually bad in winter, so he can’t go running or cycling. And, of course, he can’t swim in the sea! He
never eats pasta or potatoes, and he doesn’t eat a lot of chocolate. He needs to eat well.
His love of triathlons is also important because he uses it to help people. He helps organize a popular triathlon
every year and people take part in it to collect money for orphans.
