Leading young people to take up physical exercise is really important. But a report recently shows that only half of girls who were questioned by researchers enjoy doing sports. What are the reasons? Because of their dislike of the clothes they are asked to wear and the lack（缺乏）of facilities（设备）to do their hair afterwards. As more girls than boys fail to take part in physical activities, this is seen as a problem that needs dealing with.
Many of the girls questioned said they disliked wearing the skirts that are often part of PE clothes and that the clothes should be more comfortable to wear. The girls wanted to have the chance to say what the PE clothes should look like. They suggested clothing should cover more of their bodies, such as leggings and high-necked shirts.
Another key problem the girls reported was not having the facilities available to do their hair after they had taken part in exercise. The girls being interviewed wanted private space where they could get changed. They felt schools should supply hairdryers so that they could style their hair. They could use this time to do their hair and make sure they looked the same as they did before the class.
The researchers argue that since girls worry a great deal about how they look during their teenage years, it is important that schools take these problems seriously. Some teachers feel sports should keep youngers'minds off how they look. It should help them see the value of keeping physically fit, enjoying team spirit and achieving their success and not worrying about what their hair looks like.
