KET - reading comprehension 2

Read the text and choose the correct statements.

Mary
We did lots of team sports at school, like football, volleyball and hockey. But I’m not strong, so I couldn’t hit or kick the ball hard. Often, members of my team laughed at me, and so I stopped playing sports as soon as I could because it upset me.

Now I sometimes go cycling, swimming and running, but always on my own. Now no one can get mad at me when I’m slow!

Karen
I used to do every sport I could when I was at school. I loved to exercise, and I also liked being in a team. We had some great times together. We travelled to matches by bus, and had parties when we won. Unfortunately, I was in a terrible car accident three years ago, and I hurt my leg. It still hurts, and it has made me really unhappy because I can’t play in a team now. But a friend of mine has suggested going sailing. It sounds fun, so I think I’ll try that.

Melissa
I prefer doing sports when there aren’t lots of other people making noise: that’s why I like surfing. It’s just me and the sea and a few other people who also like quiet, beautiful places. I think I would enjoy horse-riding and skiing too, for the same reason, but those sports are too expensive for me.
