Why do you think sports are important?
I think sports are important for different reasons. For me, doing a sport is about having fun. When I play football, for example, I forget about everything else and just enjoy myself. Also, doing a sport helps you to keep fit and healthy, and it's a good way to socialise and make friends.
Do you think famous sportspeople are good role models for children?
I think that sportspeople should be good role models. Children look up to their favourite football players, like David Beckham for example, so I think that these people have an enormous responsibility. They should try to be a good influence, and behave in the right way.
Do you agree that sports stars earn too much money?
In my opinion, it's fair that the best sportspeople earn a lot of money. Being a top sportsperson requires hours of practice, and there are millions of sports fans who are willing to pay to see them play. If we don't want sportspeople to earn so much money, we shouldn't go to watch them.

Do you think children get enough exercise these days?
No, I don't think so. It seems that children spend too much time sitting in front of computers or tablets instead of being outside playing and exercising. A few generations ago, children were much more active and enjoy outdoor activities, but nowadays they only do exercise at school during PE lessons.
Is there a difference between exercise that boys like and exercise that girls like?
Yes, there is. Generally, boys tend to prefer doing more strenuous and active exercises which require more strength and stamina, such as football, boxing, or basketball, whereas girls often prefer more relaxing and gentle exercises, like yoga or walking.
How can parents encourage their children to take more exercise?
To be honest, I don't think it's easy for parents to encourage their children to be more active. However, one possible way would be for parents to get involved in sports themselves and take their children along to join in. I think if exercise is made of fun for children and they can do it together with their parents, it would probably result in more children being more active.
