Ancient Athens got its name from the goddess Athena. Every year the city celebrated the goddess
Athena’s birthday on 28th of July. The Panathenaea was great festival that lasted several days.
During the festival there were sports competitions, music and poetry contests. Athletes took part
in foot races and horse races. There were boxing and wrestling matches and even boat races.
Musicians and singers competed for golden crown. People also listened to poems about heroes.
At sunrise on the last day, everyone met at the gates of the city with gift for Athena. they walked
in a long procession through the streets to the temple of Athena, the Parthenon on the Acropolis. At
the front of the procession four little girls carried a statue of Athena. Later, there was a big dinner
with meat, bread and cakes. It was a fantastic celebration for the city.
Extreme ironing
Household chores may be a household bore, but not when they become extreme sports. There
are many strange sports in the world and here is a new one that you might like to try.
Extreme ironing is very simple. You take your ironing board, your iron and a piece of clothing to
somewhere out of the ordinary and ... you iron. There is an annual competition for the best
photograph of extreme ironing.
A lot of people take it very seriously and train for the competition. To do extreme ironing you
need stamina, but you also have to iron with grace - you see, this sport is like dancing.
There are photographs of people ironing underwater. on the tops of mountains or riding on bikes.
You can iron on your own or with a team of friends.
Extreme ironing might never become an Olympic sport, but at least you can do something exciting
and still have nicely ironed clothes at the end of the day
The rules:
Cricket is the most popular sport in India and many teenagers are crazy about it. Schools often have
their own cricket team and competitions take place all year round. In cricket, there are two teams of
eleven players and a match can last from one day to four or five days. Many teenagers dream of
becoming a professional cricketer and playing for their country.
In the USA, many children learn baseball from young age. Schools often have their own baseball team
and they play against one another in championships. In baseball, there are two teams of nine players
and they play on a diamond-shaped field. Many American kids have their own favourite baseball hero
and love wearing their favourite team colours.

I had the time of my life at Mardi Gras in New Orleans last February. It was the best party ever. The
whole city came alive. There were over sixty parades. People were wearing very colorful costumes
and carnival masks and there was music and dancing in the streets and cafes every night. My friends
and I danced and had fun. We all tried the King Cake too. It’s an oval cake with purple, green and gold
icing and a special bean inside. It’s delicious! If you get the bean, you buy the cake the next time. We
were all so excited.
