XVIII. Read Leo's report about his favourite sport. Choose the correct answer A, B or C.

"Water polo is a new sport at our school, but we have a good team now. We practise after school on Thursday at the Northside Pool and we're doing well in the National Schools Competition.

There are seven players in a water polo team. The game is a bit like football because each team tries to score a goal with a ball. But in water polo you don't use your feet - you catch and throw the ball with one hand. And you never stop swimming. A game lasts 32 minutes, and in that time you swim up and down a 30-metre pool lots of times. If you aren't fit, water polo isn't the sport for you!

For me, it's great, because I love being in the water and I can swim fast. I also enjoy being part of a team. We have soe excellent players and we're all good friends. So it's fun, and it's also a fantastic way to get fit."

The missing ring

Robert's mother was very sad. On Saturday, she lost her favourite ring when the family went for a walk in the forest. Robert's dad went back on Sunday morning to try to find it. He looked everywhere but he couldn't see it because the ring was very little and it was dark under the big trees.

"I'll buy you another sliver ring just like the one you lost," he said to Robert's mum that evening. "But I loved that one!" she answered.

On Monday morning she was still unhappy so Robert said, "Let's go for another walk after school. Perhaps we will finnd your fing if we look again very carefully." "Good idea, Robert," she answered.

So later that afternoon, they drove back to the forest. They enjoyed walking there. They kicked the leaves with their feet and listened to all the birds in the trees.

Suddenly a lovely red, spotted butterfly flew out of the trees and down on to the ground in front of them. "Look at that!" Robert said. When Robert's mother looked through her camera to take a picture, she saw something on the small leaf which was under the butterfly. It was her missing ring!

"I can't believe it!" she said. "A butterfly has shown us where I dropped my ring!" It was a very good end to the day.
