答案 A problem of modern societies is the decling level of health in the general population. One possible solution is to provide more sports facilities to encourage a more active lifestyle. However, there are some people who doubt whether the solution would have effects. Advocates of this solution believe that increasing the number of sports facilities is the best way to improve the well-being of people. First of all, nowadays people have to devote more time and energy to their careers and therefore they are too busy to spare time for physical exercises. If there were easy-to-reach local sports facilities, they would be more likely to take part in physical activities regularly. Another reason is that today’s sedentary lifestyle means that physical activity is no longer part of people’s leisure time. If more sports facilities were offered, doing a variety of sports would be much more attractive than just sitting in front of a screen every evening. However, there are some reasons why the solution would have little effect. In the first place, interest in sport is not universal, and additional facilities might simply attract those who are already fit, not those who most need them. What we should do is to help children develop a positive attitude to exercise at an early age. in the second place, there may be better ways of tackling this problem. For example, high tax penalties could be imposed on high-fat food products, tobacco and alcohol, as excessive consumption of any of these contributes to poor health. Even improving public transport would help because it takes longer to walk to the bus stop than to the car. In my opinion, increasing the number of sports facilities would not have the desired results. People should be encouraged to form the habit of regular physical exercises when they are young, in addition, some better approaches may assist to improve people’s health.
