Let’s solve the matching task step by step.
We have 10 definitions on the left and 10 words/phrases on the right. We need to match each definition with the correct word.
---
Step 1: Look at each definition and think about what it means.
1. “A hall with ropes and bars for gymnastics and sports” → This is a place where you do gym activities. That’s a
gym.
2. “A group of people who play together” → In sports, this is called a
team.
3. “Another word for inside a building” → The opposite of outside is
indoors.
4. “A sport that people play in every country in the world is .....” → Basketball is played everywhere — so it’s an
international sport.
5. “A round and juicy fruit” → A
peach fits this description (and also relates to basketball history!).
6. “Basketball players run up and down the...” → They run on the
court.
7. “You can have a ....... of basketball, soccer, football and tennis” → You can have a
game of any of these.
8. “To get something high, you climb a ......” → You climb a
ladder.
9. “A container to hold or carry things” → That’s a
basket.
10. “NBA stands for .....” → NBA = National Basketball Association.
