如果你想给自己充电，你可以去上健身课。大部分健身课是免费的，哈佛的学生 都可以去上这些课。课程（有些需要支付费用）包括交谊舞、网球、潜水、瑜伽、力 量训练、太极、回力球、滑冰和一般的健身课。

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，freshmen⁶ 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.

如果你擅长运动，你的能力不会被埋没。你可以参加校际比赛。如果你没能入选， 不要伤心，因为参加校际比赛的名额有限，哈佛发展了一个广泛的校内比赛项目。哈 佛很重视体育运动。第一年，新生只能参加新生校内体育比赛，这有点不正式。当学 生搬入学舍以后，在接下来的三年，他们可以参加学舍校内体育比赛项目。学生代表各自的学舍和其他学舍的选手比赛。
