I do see a close relationship between sports and our national life and I sometimes wonder whether those of us who love sports have done as much as we should in maintaining sports as a constructive part of this country’s existence.

Which quotation from the passage provides relevant evidence to support the author’s claim?

Responses

“Despite our much-publicized emphasis on school athletics, our own children lag behind European children in physical fitness.” (paragraph 6)

“Our existence deprives us of the minimum of physical activity essential for healthy living.” (paragraph 7)

“I do not say this in order to decry excellence in sports or anywhere else.” (paragraph 8)

“There are more important goals than winning contests, and that is to improve on a broad level the health and vitality of all of our people.” (paragraph 10)
