I am sitting in an empty
football field after my last high school football game that finished a few
hours ago. I’m the mid-field player on my team. But in fact that’s not 1 now. I was the mid-field player because,
as I said, this was my
2 game. That’s a good way to end a high
school football career (生涯), especially if you win, but even
though you don’t, it’s 3 to leave at a high point.
I was eight when I first
started playing football. My dad
4 football, and he
used to practise with me at home – passing, catching,
running. We used to practise almost every evening 5 it got too dark. He tried to teach me
everything he knew about the 6 . “Just remember: don’t ever 7 .” “Stay in the game. Don’t lose
your concentration (专注).” “Go out there and give 110
percent every time.” Well, that was a long time ago, but I still hear his words
8 in my ears.
I had a lot on my mind 9 the game today. I don’t like things to
end, I guess, and this was the last game. I was talking to myself and warning
myself about what to do and not to do. I didn’t sleep at all 10 , and when the sun came up this
morning, I reached the point where 11 just wanted it all to be over,
finished, done. But then when the game started, my mind became 12 . I just lived in this game, this
moment. I didn’t hear the crowd, I didn’t feel the cold or the pain, I never
felt tired. I just kept my eyes on the 13 , and it was just me and the ball
and, inside, a soft, white light 14 me the way to the goal. It was a
beautiful, empty feeling.
It’s all over now, and it’s
really getting cold here. It’s starting to snow. The sun’s almost gone, and I
can 15 see the goal. Now it’s dark
and I’m sitting here all alone. Well, I guess it’s time to say good-bye and
move on.

A good dictionary is 1 important tool(工具). It will tell you 2
only what a word means but 3
how it 4 . A dictionary needs to be printed
again about every ten years. Languages develop(发展)and a good
dictionary must 5 these new changes.
A new English dictionary
will only tell you 6 most people use the language today.
It won’t tell you what is right 7
wrong. It may tell you the right time to use a word. If only 8
people use a word, a
dictionary will 9 tell you this or not list(编列) it.
10 dictionary will tell you many interesting
facts. If you type(用打字机打)a word and the word is too
long, 11 in your dictionary. All dictionaries
show you 12 to break(拆开) a word. And they also show you how a word 13
.
Every
dictionary, of course, tells you what a word means. But some words, like “get” or “take”, may have lots of meanings(意思). In some
dictionaries, the main(主要的)meanings are often listed first.
In 14 , the newest meanings are listed
last. So before you use your dictionary, you should always 15
the front part. This part explains 16
.
Some
dictionaries also show you where a word comes 17
. Do you know that the word “brand”(标记) comes from an old word? This old
word means “to burn”. This is because
18 years ago people
burned their names on tables or boats to show who 19
them. They also burned their own names on their farm animals 20
they would not be stolen.
Your
dictionary also has a lot of other interesting facts in it. After you have
learned to use a dictionary, it can become your best useful book.

Once there was
a clever farmer. Though he was poor, he decided one day to take the king a
roast goose(烤鹅)as a present. He had not had 1 to eat that day, and soon the 2 of the roast goose became too much for
him as(当……时)he 3 it to the king, so he ate one of its
legs.
When he came before the king
and gave him the goose, the king 4 saw that it had only one leg.
Now, the king 5 was born with one bad leg, so he had
never been able to 6
properly(正常地). When he saw the goose with only one leg, he thought the farmer had
7
this to laugh at him. Of
course he was very 8 . The farmer was told that if
anybody laughed at the king, he would be 9 at once.
“Where is 10 leg of the goose?” the king asked.
“All the geese(goose的复数)in this 11 of the country have one leg only,” the farmer answered.
“Do you think I’m a fool(傻子)?” the king shouted.
“ 12 ,” said the farmer, “if you
look out of the window, you will see geese with one leg by the 13 .”
The king looked, and there
the geese were 14 on one leg beside the water. The king at
once told one of his men to 15 them with a big stick, and of course,
they 16 their other legs and ran away.
“There,” said the king. “You were lying(说谎). That 17 that the geese here have two legs, like
all other 18 in the country.”
“But it doesn’t show
anything,” answered the farmer, “if your men threw a big stick like that at me,
I would grow two 19 legs myself to help me to run away 20 .”

The famous
director(导演) of a big and expensive film
decided to film a beautiful sunset
1 the sea, so that people could see the man
and woman players in front of 2 at the end of the film as they said
goodbye to each other. He 3 a group of men out one evening to film
the sunset for him.
The next
morning he said to the men, " Have you 4 the sunset for me?"
"No,
sir," one man answered. " We are on the 5 coast (海岸线)here, and
the sun sets in the west. We can get you a sunrise, but not a sunset."
"But I
want a sunset!" the director said 6
. "Go to the airport(机场), take the next
7 to the west
coast, and get one."
But then one of them had
an idea. "why don't we film a sunrise and then put it 8 the projector (放映机) backwards? Then it will 9 a sunset."
"That's a
10 idea !" the director said. Then he 11 to the other men and said, "
Tomorrow morning I want you to get me a beautiful sunrise."
The group of
men went out early the next morning and filmed a bright sunrise. Then at nine o'clock they 12 it to the director. "Here it is,
sir," they said, and showed it to him. He liked it very much.
They all went into the
studio(摄影棚). " All right," the
