In almost every big university in the United States football is a favorite sport. American football is not like soccer.

Players sometimes kick the ball, but they also throw the ball and run with it. They try to take it to the other end of the field. They have four chances to move the ball ten yards. They can carry it or throw it. If they move it to the end of the field, they receive six points. This is called a touch—down. It is difficult to move the ball. Eleven men on the team try to stop the man who has the ball. If the man does not move the ball ten yards, his team kicks the ball to the other team.

Each university wants its team to win. Thousands of people come to watch. They all yell for their favorite team. Young men and women called cheerleaders come on the field to help the people yell more. They dance and jump while they yell.

Each team plays ten or eleven games each season. The season begins in September and ends in November. If a team is very good, it may play another game after the season ends. The best teams play again on January 1st, the first day of the New Year. Many people go to see these games and many others watch them on television

A teacher once told each of her students to bring a clean plastic bag and a bag of potatoes to schoo1.For every person they didn’t want to forgive in their lives,they were told to choose a potato,write on it the name and the date,and put it in the bag.Some of their bags were very heavy.

They were then told to carry this bag with them everywhere for one week.They would put it beside their bed at night,on the seat when sitting in a car or on a bus,and next to their desk at schoo1.

Days of carrying the bags around with them got the students to get to know what a weight they were carrying in their hands.And they had to pay attention to it all the time (1)__________they didn’t forget it.(2)As time passed by,the potatoes went bad and smelt very terrible

Too often we think of tolerance(容忍)as a gift to other people,and it clearly is for ourselves! Sometimes we choose to keep our sadness in our hearts,we have to carry them around all our lives.If everyone learns to forgive,our world will become a better one.
