Games play a significant role in an individual`s life. They provide name and fame to the person who pursues it with passion along with keeping him healthy. Every person is inspired by their favorite sportsperson to whom he admires.
Today I am going to talk about a person I admire the most and he is none other than the God of cricket. I am talking about the living legend Sachin Tendulkar, a person who has fans beyond boundaries. Many people know him as the master blaster. He began his career in cricket when he was 16 years of age on an international level in a match against Pakistan in Islamabad. Everyone was surprised when they witnessed the talent of the young boy as he made his first century. From that day onwards he never looked behind. In his pursuit, he made numerous outstanding records in Indian cricket. He is one of the best opening batsman Indian cricket team ever had. A popular cricketer of Australia cricket team, Shane Warne once mentioned that he is horrified in his dreams case of Sachin. Although he has immense popularity yet he is always down to earth. He is a kind-hearted, innocent, and honest person. Many times it happened that umpire gave wrong decisions against him but he never opposed rather he accepts that calmly and due to his this behavior he is even respected by his opponents
Nowadays he is a member of Rajya Sabha in Indian parliament and served his country leading from the front after he got retirement from cricket. He has a great personality and is all the manners a true sportsperson who played with all the true spirit of the games. I wish people will remember his contribution to Indian as well as international cricket as well.

In today’s lesson, we are going to look at a question from IELTS speaking part 2 that asks you to describe a sportsperson . I will help you analyze the question, make notes, give some useful language, and then I will give you a helpful sample answer.
Note: I have updated this post since it was originally written to include a video lesson. You can find that at the bottom of this page.
Here’s a common question from IELTS Speaking Part 2:
Describe a sportsperson you admire. You should say: who the person is what sport he or she does when did you first hear about this person and why you admire him or her.
Hopefully, everyone reading this is at least familiar with some famous sports stars. You don’t need to be a fanatic to answer this question well… but it might help! You just need to be able to think of a person, describe what he or she does, when and where you first encountered this person, and give some reasons why you admire them.
As always, you should be writing some short notes in preparation, rather than any sentences. Remember that you really don’t have enough time to write more than a few words.
Note down any vocabulary that comes to mind and which you think will help. But mostly write down words that will help you to structure your speech – this makes your words sound more natural.
See our article on how to improve your IELTS speaking .
Here are my notes:
Leo Messi Argentina-> Barcelona Disability Awards 10 years ago Perseverance
These are obviously very basic, but by looking at them I can speak confidently without missing any of the points from the cue card. There are two useful words of vocabulary – disability and perseverance . These words, if properly used, sound impressive and add meaningfully to the speaking task. They are examples of “less common vocabulary” and can help improve your score.
It is helpful to have an idea about this cue card in your head before the exam. Certain topics often appear in IELTS speaking part 2 and you should be quite familiar with them before you sit the IELTS. Here are some guides to common topics:
I have highlighted some useful constructions for describing a famous person. These are useful for describing Leo Messi but of course can be adapted to other people. Some are quite basic – like “some would say” – while others are more complex, such as “his inspiring story of perseverance.”
Remember: you should never memorize answers for IELTS, but it is helpful to remember collocations – that means groups of words that are commonly used together.
So here is my answer to the cue card above:
My favourite sports person is Leo Messi. He’s a famous football player, and some would say he’s the best football player in the world. He started his career in Argentina, where he was born, but moved to Barcelona, in Spain, when he was a teenager. He had a disability, for which the Spanish team agreed to pay his medical bills. Despite his health problems, Messi developed into a modern legend . He has won numerous trophies over the course of his career , including five “world footballer of the year” awards – which is a world record. I remember first hearing about him about ten years ago, when he was first making headlines . His life story caught my attention just as much as his incredible skills. I admire him because of his triumph over adversity . I think that his inspiring story of perseverance is a lesson for us all.
The phrases “making headlines” and “modern legend” are really useful for talking about famous people. You can incorporate these into your IELTS speaking part 2 answer like this.
Lebron James is a modern legend in the field of basketball. He has been making headlines for more than a decade.
Sports is a common IELTS topic and it may occur in other parts of the exam, so make sure you know some basic vocabulary. If there is a sport that you really care about, learn some of the words that are commonly used to describe it. Here is a great collection of sports words to study.
One of the tricky things about sports in English is that there are some very subtle differences in language from sport to sport and between cultures. Here are some examples:
Basketball is played on a basketball court . Football is played on a football pitch . Baseball is played on a baseball field .
And so on. Knowing these slight differences can really help elevate your IELTS speaking score. Also, keep in mind that you are not describing a sport. Instead, you have been asked to describe a sportsperson. This means that you should be good with vocabulary for describing people .
I have converted this lesson into a video format. If you want to hear me giving my sample answer in an audio recording, you can watch this video. You might find it useful to repeat my sentences to improve your pronunciation .
Ok, folks. That’s all for today’s lesson. I hope you are now able to describe a sportsperson. You can put your own ideas into the comment section below and I will give you some feedback.

Hi Adel. I have corrected this for you:
I would like to talk about Mohammed Shalah, who is one of the most famous football players and some would say he’s the best football player in the world. He started his career in Egypt, where he was born, but moved to a lot of sports clubs around Europe until he transferred to Liverpool football club in England. There are several reasons why I admire him but for me, the most important factor is that I’m big fan of his play and performance. I have seen almost all of his matches with Liverpool and consider him to one of the world’s best players. Also, he is a source of motivation and inspiration after he was been awarded BBC prize for the best football player in England. He was not only but also candidate from the French football journal to win the African Prize for the best football player in Africa but also… [I don’t know what you want to say here]. In the future, if I had a chance to meet him, I would definitely ask him for his autograph, take photos with him, and post them on my Facebook wall. It would be a golden opportunity for me to talk with him, learn from him, and be inspired by this man.

The year was 1920. It was George “Babe” Ruth’s first season playing for the New York Yankees.
During that season, he scored an amazing 54 home runs. He alone scored more home runs than any team.
However, “The Bambino,” as he was nicknamed, was far from an example of athletic prowess. He was chubby, did not like to practice and was constantly seen at parties drinking and gambling.
So, how could he achieve such greatness on the baseball field?
To answer this question, a prominent sportswriter from the New York Times, Hugh Fullerton, knocked on the door of the Columbia University psychology lab where two graduate researchers, Albert Johanson and Joseph Holmes, were prompted to answer.
Fullerton’s enquiry was simple: if Ruth’s achievements could not be explained by physical abilities, then what other factors might be involved?
It was no surprise when the researchers discovered Ruth scored higher than the average population in every psychological test he did.
Ruth’s testing results formed the basis of an article by Fullerton in Popular Science Monthly titled: “ Why Babe Ruth is greatest home-run hitter ”.
These findings changed the popular perspective on sport performance, suggesting physical attributes weren’t the only reason athletes were able to excel – mental skills were finally on centre stage.
Ruth outperformed normal people in attention, memory and cognitive tasks.
It took almost a century for sport scientists to find out whether those high-level skills were a common trait for elite athletes or if Ruth was just a genius.
In an exploratory meta-analysis published in 2018 , focusing on athletes only, my colleagues and I found athletes recruited brain areas involved with attention, memory and motor control when making sport-related decisions.
Then, in 2022, a review by Nicole Logan and colleagues from Northeastern University in the United States gathered 41 studies comparing professional athletes and normal controls (people like us).
Data from 5,339 participants (including 2267 athletes) was meta-analysed. The results showed significantly higher scores in attention and decision-making among professional athletes compared to normal people.
So athletes generally outperform us in cognitive tasks – but why?
It was the emergence of cognitive neuroscience that allowed scientists to map neural networks involved in sport imagery (such as athletes’ abilities to reproduce sport-related situations in their minds) and athletes’ decision-making regarding in-game situations.
Decision-making is a human skill. The more you practice, the better you get.
But good decision-makers such as elite athletes rely on other cognitive skills to simulate in their minds the potential outcomes of any given situation.
Here is an example – imagine a rugby league match.
A halfback is starting a play with his team close to the try line. He has several teammates to pass the ball to but he decides to tuck the ball under his arm and sprint to score a try – he had seen open space in the opponent’s defensive line.
In a fraction of a second, he had to make a decision based on the information he had available. Using imagery, he had to consider every other player’s position in the field, calculating the best route for each possible pass or run he could make.
It requires high levels of attention to visually scan the field, stop any distraction from clouding thoughts, memory to hold and retrieve information while processing all alternatives, and creativity to imagine the same play from different angles.
These three skills – attention, memory and creativity – have technical names: inhibitory control, working memory and cognitive flexibility, respectively.
They are the three core executive functions used by the brain to execute complex tasks.
The most groundbreaking study about the role of executive functions in sport performance came out in 2012.
Torbjörn Vestberg and colleagues from the Karolinska Institute in Sweden compared the three core executive functions of elite soccer players from the first division with their counterparts from the fourth division (usually only semi-professional athletes).
The higher division outperformed the lower division players in all executive functions tasks .
Similar results were found in other studies through the past decade, including one from my colleagues and I in 2023 , which compared female soccer and futsal players with their amateur counterparts.
We found elite athletes outperform regular people in decision-making and executive functioning.
Elite athletes are highly specialised decision-makers because they practice it every day.
They outperform normal people in cognitive flexibility and inhibition , which might lead to smarter decisions on and off court.
However, the scientific literature still lacks evidence on the other core executive function, the working memory. In my current research I am trying to fill this gap.
Being creative and finding better solutions to overcome an opponent is what sport is about, whereas many normal people like us struggle when facing large amounts of information at the same time.
Practice, and a bit of biological disposition, makes most elite athletes smarter than us.

This weekend’s Olympics closing ceremony is expected to include more than 100 acrobats and aerial performers, award the final Olympic champions their medals and include a sneak peak of what’s to come for the 2028 games in Los Angeles—which will reportedly feature an action movie-worthy stunt from Hollywood star Tom Cruise.
The Eiffel Tower and the Place Du Trocadero during the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games Paris ... [+] 2024 on July 26, 2024.
On Thursday, Team USA announce that swimmer Katie Ledecky and rower Nick Mead will carry the American flags at the closing ceremony.
Grammy winning artist H.E.R. is set to perform the U.S. national anthem, multiple outlets confirmed, as part of the hand-off to the 2028 Los Angeles games, and rumors are flying about what other big-name acts will make an appearance.
Tony Estanguet, president of the Paris 2024 committee, said the ceremony will be "solemn and emotional, but it will also be a time for celebration... Innovative, surprising and brilliant, these ceremonies already promise to be very powerful."
Other than promises of a dazzling stage performance and hints about several pre-filmed Cruise stunts, most of the ceremony remains shrouded in mystery.
The closing ceremony will start at 3 p.m. EDT at the Stade de France, the country’s national stadium, where rugby sevens and track and field events have been hosted, and broadcast live on Peacock, with an edited version airing at 7 p.m. on NBC.

Live coverage will start at 2 p.m. EDT on Sunday, Aug. 11 and the closing ceremony will start at 3 p.m. It will be broadcast on NBC and Peacock and re-broadcast during primetime coverage at 7 p.m. EDT on NBC and Peacock.
Thomas Jolly, the same creative director who managed the much-buzzed about opening ceremony, has named the closing show " Records ." Performers will include acrobats, circus artists, dancers, gymnasts and aerial ballet dancers who are expected to perform atop metal structures representing the Olympic rings. The ceremonies will also include the traditional parade of flags and athletes, speeches, a final medal ceremony and the extinguishing of the Olympic flame before the Olympic flag is ceremoniously handed over to Los Angeles, which will host the summer games in 2028. Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass will attend the ceremony.
"World-renowned singers" will take the stage, according to the official Olympics website . American R&B singer H.E.R., an Oscar and five-time Grammy winner, is set to sing the American national anthem. Variety on Thursday reported —citing multiple anonymous sources—that Billie Eilish, Snoop Dogg and the Red Hot Chili Peppers are among those will will take the stage. The artists will be seen in a mix of live and pre-taped performances, according to the report.
This week it was reported that Cruise, who is filming “Mission: Impossible 8” in Europe, will perform a stunt at the closing ceremony. A clip of the movie star skydiving to the Hollywood sign is expected to play a role in the handoff to Los Angeles for the 2028 Olympics, according to The Hollywood Reporter , and Cruise was reportedly spotted filming a scene—possibly for the ceremony—in May that included a motorcycle and large flag.
There’s no evidence to support this rumor. Hosts of Britain's " This Morning ," Craig Doyle and Jordan North, said on-air Thursday that they'd heard Beyoncé may perform at the closing ceremony. "Don't quote me on that," North said, to which Doyle responded, "I can double up on that rumor, I did hear that as well." The claim has since circulated on social media, but no performers have been confirmed for the event. Rumors spread for weeks that Celine Dion or Lady Gaga were planning to perform at the opening ceremony in Paris before the pair dueted “L'Hymne à l'amour” by French singer Édith Piaf.
Ledecky hit major career milestones in Paris, winning gold in the 800m and 1500m freestyles, silver in the 4x200m relay and bronze in the 400m free. Along the way, she became the the most-decorated U.S. female Olympian ever and the second-most decorated U.S. Olympian of all time, behind Michael Phelps. Mead, a former Princeton rower, is a two-time Olympian who won his first gold medal in the men's four rowing competition in Paris this year.
Jimmy Fallon of "The Tonight Show" and longtime sports reporter Mike Tirico will co-host the ceremony. Former Olympians Johnny Weir and Tara Lipinski—who have built a loyal fan base as commentators since they retired—and NBC Sports' Terry Gannon will be commentating .
The final medal ceremony is expected to award winners in the women’s marathon from earlier in the day.
Marcel Ciolacu said he will not attend the Olympic closing ceremony after a last-minute score change kept Romanian gymnast Ana Barbosu from winning bronze in the women's floor exercise. Celebrating of the medalists had already begun Monday—Barbosu was proudly carrying a Romanian flag—when coaches for Jordan Chiles, an American, made an appeal to judges to raise her score. The judges did so, and the 0.1-point boost was enough to push Chiles to bronze and knock Barbosu off the podium. Ciolacu said the Romanian athlete was "treated in an absolutely dishonorable manner" and promised Romania would honor her as an Olympic medalist. “To withdraw a medal earned for honest work on the basis of an appeal … is totally unacceptable!” he said on Facebook .

When my father lost his job, she took it upon herself to support the family until he found another job. This incident showed me the strength of her character and made me respect her even more.
My mother’s qualities have influenced me in many ways. Her kindness and patience have taught me to be considerate and patient with others. Her dedication to work has inspired me to be dedicated to my studies and future career. Her love for family has shown me the importance of family in life. And her strength in difficult times has taught me to be strong and never give up no matter how hard life gets.

Essay on the person I admire the most, In this article, we will talk about how to write an easy and correct essay on role models. Each of us has someone who looks to him with pride and admiration. For most students in the educational stages, they prefer to admire a sports hero. There are a large number of students who have a crush on a member of a famous band. Because of the popularity of some public figures, all teenagers are imitating each other.
In the following, we will talk about the most popular characters that people admire these days.
All students and teens have had periods when they admire a famous public figure. And in the esay on the person I admire the most, we will talk about some of the characters who make a fuss and everyone loves them. These characters may be players in a particular sport. One of the most important sports that is famous in all countries of the world is football. Where children and teenagers support football players and wish to become like them.
Admiration is a word we say when we feel proud and in love with someone. We may admire the person himself, as if we admire his outward appearance. We may admire the actions of this person, as we look at his personality and not his outward appearance.
And admiration for the personality itself and behavior is a kind of healthy admiration that is not rejected by rational people. As for admiration for the external appearance, without looking at the content and morals, it is an unhealthy and unacceptable type of admiration.
Sometimes we feel that a certain person attracts attention and people start to admire him, which also catches our eye and we admire him like other people. But time may change our idea of this person. We may discover that he is not worthy of admiration and that we unconsciously imitate others.
Admiration at first sight is totally wrong and not the right thing to do. We must get to know people and give ourselves enough opportunity to see their behavior in different situations, which makes us judge them correctly.
It is not right to admire anyone without thinking or without having certain qualities that make him worthy of admiration. One of the most important characteristics that makes a person worthy of admiration is that he has good manners.
It is not right to admire someone who does bad behavior or does not have good manners. A beautiful appearance and fame are not enough to admire this person. He has nothing to admire.
One of the worst things that may happen to a child or teenager is that he likes a bad person, and this is because he views this bad person as a role model that must be imitated. A bad person teaches those around him how to become like him.
Over time, this child or teenager turns into another version of this person. And we find that this matter is widespread when an actor plays a bad character that calls for violence, children and adolescents imitate what this actor presented.
One of the most dangerous things that a teenager may go through is imitating and admiring someone who behaves badly, as the teenager imitates the external appearance of this person. We find that he goes to draw tattoos on his body. And he begins to wear the same form of clothing.
The imitation does not stop there, but it extends to words and the way of speaking. Over time, the teenager may commit a legal violation or commit a crime because of imitating the life of this bad person. The teenager’s future is wasted and he may go to prison because of his wrong imitation.
Parents must be a role model for their children, as they stop doing things that may show them badly in front of their children. And they should teach the child from infancy how to choose who they admire and how to get to know them.
When a young child is drawn to the behavior of a bad person, he learns the good things and turns away from the bad things.
And the family must teach him that accompanying the bad guys and admiring their behavior is something that will harm him and make him a bad person like them over time.
Most people admire a soccer player, and in my essay on the person I admire the most, we will talk about a famous soccer player who is admired by a large number of people around the world. And this player is Mohamed Salah, as people call him Mo Salah. What makes him gain all this fame is that he plays football in a beautiful and distinctive way, as he works to raise his skills to perform a game that the fans like.
He is a person who maintains his physical fitness and has good human qualities. Where he helps the needy and deals with the public in a polite manner.
During adolescence, a person is attracted to admiring a world famous band. This is because teenagers love to sing and dance. Over the past years, each generation of teens has had a particular band that makes them happy.
But these teams have a great influence on the teenager, and if the group is unbalanced as they take drugs or do abnormal behavior, the teenager is affected by them and begins to imitate them unconsciously, which affects the personality of the teenager and others for the worse.
The actors are famous people with millions of fans. However, the ideal has certain characteristics that must be present in him in order to be a good role model for young people. The actor appears on television and in cinemas and is seen by everyone on a regular basis.
And if this actor is psychologically unbalanced or plays roles that call for madness and violence, then he becomes a bad example for viewers. That is why we find that the incidents that occur in societies are imitations and simulations of what young people see on the screen.
At the end of our essay on the person I admire the most, we learned about the meaning of admiration and the qualities that must be available in a person in order to deserve admiration.
We provided students at different educational levels with models for writing an essay on the person I admire the most . We presented phrases and terms that benefit all grades from the primary and secondary levels.
