如果你想給自己充電,你可以去上健身課。大部分健身課是免費的,哈佛的學生 都可以去上這些課。課程(有些需要支付費用)包括交誼舞、網球、潛水、瑜伽、力 量訓練、太極、回力球、滑冰和一般的健身課。
If you are good at sports, your ability won’t be buried. You can participate in intercollegiate games. If you fail to be admitted, don’t feel sad. Harvard has developed an extensive program of intramural sports since the number of students who can compete at the intercollegiate level is limited. Harvard values athletics very much. In the first year,freshmen can only participate in freshmen intramural athletics, which is somewhat informal. In the following three years, however, as students move into Houses, they can participate in the House Intramural Athletics program. As representatives of their own Houses, students compete with players from other Houses.
如果你擅長運動,你的能力不會被埋沒。你可以參加校際比賽。如果你沒能入選, 不要傷心,因為參加校際比賽的名額有限,哈佛發展了一個廣泛的校內比賽項目。哈 佛很重視體育運動。第一年,新生只能參加新生校內體育比賽,這有點不正式。當學 生搬入學舍以后,在接下來的三年,他們可以參加學舍校內體育比賽項目。學生代表各自的學舍和其他學舍的選手比賽。
