Don’t Take the Fun Out of Youth Sports
When I joined a private football league a few years ago, the sport meant everything to me. My coach said that I had lots of potential, and I became captain of my 1 . That was before all the fun was taken out of 2 .
At first, everyone on the team got 3 playing time. Then the team moved up to the top division after winning all its games, and the 4 started. Some parents, who had paid the coach extra so their daughters could have 5 one on one training, got angry when she didn’t give them more playing time in our 6 . The coach was replaced.
The new coach, however, took all the fun out of the game: All we did during practice was 7 .

Younger people shouldn’t be doing exercises 11 for 18-year-olds.
I was very thin 12 I started football, but as a member of this team I wouldn’t eat much, because I was afraid of being too 13 to run. I feared making mistakes, and the added pressure caused me to make more than my usual 14 .

请认真阅读下列短文,并根据所读内容在文章后表格中的空格里填入最恰当的单词。
(注意:每空格1个单词)
WASHINGTON-According to statistics compiled by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, 72 officers were killed by criminals in 2011, increased markedly in recently years.
The 2011 deaths were the first time that more officers were killed by suspects than car accidents.The number was the highest in nearly two decades, excluding those who died in the Sept.11 attacks in 2001 and the Oklahoma City bombing in 1995.
While the F.B.I.and other law enforcement(执行)officials cannot fully explain the reasons for the rise in officer homicides, they are clear about the terrible consequences.
“In this law enforcement job, when you pin this badge on and go out on calls, when you leave home, you can't guarantee that you will come back,” said Sheriff Ray Foster of Buchanan County, Va.
After a series of killings in early 2011, Attorney General Eric H.Holder Jr.asked federal authorities to work with local police departments to try to come up with solutions to the problem.
The F.B.I., which has tracked officer deaths since 1937, paid for a study conducted by John Jay College that found that in many cases the officers were trying to arrest or stop a suspect who had previously been arrested for a violent crime.
That prompted the F.B.I.to change what information it will provide to local police departments, the officials said.Starting this year, when police officers stop a car and call its license plate into the F.B.I.'s database, they will be told whether the owner of the vehicle has a violent history.Through the first three months of this year, the number of police fatalities has dropped, though it is unclear why.
Some law enforcement officials believe that techniques pioneered by the New York Police Department over the past two decades and adopted by other departments may have put officers at greater risk by encouraging them to conduct more street stops and to seek out and confront(对抗)suspects who seem likely to be armed.In New York and elsewhere, police officials moved more officers into crime-ridden areas.
Some argue that the rise in violence is linked to the tough economy.With less money, police departments, after years of staffing increases, have been forced to make cutbacks(削减).
The police chief in Camden, N.J., J.Scott Thomson, whose force of 400 was cut by nearly half last year because of financing issues, said that having fewer officers on the street “makes it that much more difficult to create an environment in which criminals do not feel as encouraged to attack another person, let alone a law enforcement officer.”
“Every stop can be potentially fatal, so we are trying to make sure the officers are ready and prepared to face deadly force every single day they go out.” Ms.Klimt said.
Thomas Edison tried two thousand different materials to make the light bulb. When none worked satisfactorily, his assistant 31 , “All our work is in vain. We have learned nothing. ”
Thomas Edison replied very 32 , “Oh, we have come a long way and we have 33 a lot. We now know that there are two thousand materials which we cannot 34 to make a good light bulb. ”
If we learn from our mistakes, then we are 35 . If we learn from someone else’s mistakes, then we are genius. Success is nothing more than a few simple disciplines 36 daily and failure is nothing more than a few small 37 repeated daily.
How 38 the above lines are! Success takes 39 . We’ll make mistakes 40 we do things in too much of a hurry. When we do not practice disciplines in life, we don’t build enough confidence to 41 new and challenging tasks which are important and matter in life. Our confidence 42 what we think of ourselves and whether we believe in ourselves. We are all born with exceptional 43 , but only a few really 44 their true potential and make efforts in life and the others just lead a(n) 45 life. Do you want to be exceptional?
Success is a fruit which everyone wants to 46 but it is not found everywhere and no one can 47 it without serious efforts.
Those who want to succeed will find a way; those who don’t will find a(n) 48 !
Success depends upon previous 49 , and without it we will end in failure.
When you are 50 , please enjoy it and give your hand to others who want to accomplish something.
