(4) fond / good / keen on playing basketball outdoors,
even when it (5) has been / had been / was cold
and rainy, rather than on the basketball (6) court/
pitch/ring in our sports centre. However, (7) in two
years/ for two years/ two years ago I started to feel
weak and unwell. I had a (8) runny/ broken/aching
nose and my eyes hurt. The tests showed it was hay
fever. Now, in springtime, I (9) mustn't have to / can
take medicines for a few months. If I (10) forget/
will forget/ forgot about them, I keep sneezing and
my eyes get red. Fortunately, I can still practise sports,
so I feel quite positive about my health. How about
you? Do you have any health problems? How do you
cope with them?
