they walk to the other side of the sports hall, Arda is confused, he wants to go near them

Great, let's form two teams.

Yasamin, Wang Shu, Tim, Vavara, Arda, Giorgia, Colin, you are in the first team.

Excuse me Mr. Runner, can enigmatic play with us too?

Who is enigmatic?

Here he is, he is the new student.

Oh, the principal didn't tell me about the new student.

I think he forgot it.

Welcome to our school enigmatic, you have a weird name.

Anyway, you can play in Arda's team.

How?

Don't you see the other team's players?

D, read about the other team's players below and answer the questions on page 27.

Miranda Miranda is a professional football player.

She attends football training every day and she is very successful.

She sometimes goes on a special diet because she wants to be a better football player.

She never eats junk food and she drinks lots of water.

Bonnie Actually, she never attends football training

and she isn't a very good player, but she is very lucky.

She just stands there, the ball hits her and she scores a goal.

She hits the ball to the wrong side, but the ball jumps and she scores a goal again.

She wasn't in the game in a match last year.

She was with the spectators.

The ball bounced, hit her head and she scored a goal again.

She is so lucky.

Jamie Jamie always wakes up early and he usually attends football training after a healthy breakfast.

He is very tall and well built.

He never loses any matches because his opponents feel scared of his height and muscles.

Raj Raj is short and thin.

He is a very fast runner.

He has got medals and athletics.

He runs marathons.

He never feels tired.

He attends football training once a month, but he runs a marathon three times a week.

This makes him a strong opponent in football too.

Harvey Harvey always eats fast food, so he is fat and he can't run fast.

But he is the goalkeeper.

He stands there and the ball can't pass him.

He is like a wall.

Lily

Lily's favorite sport is archery, but she sometimes attends football training too.

She can hit the ball very well.

She likes doing sports very much.

It's a lifestyle for her.

Taylor never attends football training and he can't run fast, but he has got great tactics.

He is the brain of the team.

He is very smart.

Varvar is right.

Their team is stronger than our team.

We can't win this match.

Why do you say that?

Yes.

They are successful, but we are successful too.

Well, not really.

What's wrong with our team?

How often do you do football training Colin?

Well, once a week.

Ah, come on.

You never train.

Also, look at you.

You always eat fast food, so you should go on a diet.

Okay.

I'm not a very good football player, but Tim is successful.

He scored many goals last year.

But he is injured.

His arm is broken, so he can't run fast now.

What's about Arda?

He never obeys the rules of the game.

The referee always shows him a red card.

Isn't Varvar a good at football?

She's good at watching football, not playing it.

And Wang Shu.

She sometimes attends football training, but she can't play football well.

Georgia?

Georgia isn't good at team sports because she is selfish in games.

She never gives the ball to her teammates.

You also don't attend football training, Yasimin.

You're right.

I'm not a good player either.

I'm afraid we will lose.

E. Yasimin thinks her team can't win the match.

Why?

Write the reasons.

Arda looks at the spectators.

Anigmatic is sitting there.

I have a plan.

Wait for me.

He goes near anigmatic.

Hi, Anigmatic.

Aren't you bored here?

No, I'm fine.

Well, Tim's arm is broken.

He can't play.

Can you come and play in our team?

I don't want to play.

Please, we need you.

Our team is weak and you are an alien.

Yes, I am.

But what can I do?

Don't you have...

Don't you have superpowers?

Maybe.

Great.

Come and use your superpowers.

Then, we can win this game.

But I think it is against the rules.

Well, no one knows you have these powers, so no problem.

Are you sure?

Yes, I'm sure.

Finally, Anigmatic joins their team.

The team doesn't like Anigmatic so much, but Arda says he is a successful player.

They take him to the team because they want to win.

F.

Finally, they find a name for their teams.

Write a name for Arda's team.

And the match starts.

I can't remember his name.

The ball and fat one.

Oh yes!

Enigmatic!

Enigmatic has the ball!

The game starts.

He just stands there and looks around.

This boy is really weird, dear spectators.

Why isn't he running?

His hands are in his pocket and he is waiting.

Lily is trying to take the ball.

Oh, she suddenly falls down.

But why?

Taylor runs to the ball.

Oh, he falls down too.

All players are falling down.

Enigmatic walks.

He is very slow.

He hits the ball.

And it's a goal.

Wow, it's two to two.

It's a draw again.

Oh, she falls down again.

What is happening to the players today?

Why do they fall down?

Look!

No one can pass Harvey.
