Read the text.

Hello, my name's Helena Mahira Hira. I come from Niassa. I‟m 45 years old.

I‟m going to tell you about sports and games I played when I was a teenager like you. Girls were
only allowed to play "light sports", I mean sports that do not demand much strength and are not
violent. These sports included skipping, walking and playing a traditional game called
“muravarava". We played these sports during rain seasons. Because it was cold, we played these
sports to keep ourselves warm!

Boys played football, karate, volleyball, handball, boxing and athletics. These were supposed to
be dangerous for us. When I became a police officer, I practice all of them. I am very happy that
my female grandchildren play football and boxing. What about you? What sports and hobbies
do you play in your school?

Important vocabulary:

Teenager ̶ adolescente

Female - alguém do sexo femenino

Grandchildren - netos
