How to Be a Good Sport(開朗的人)

Learning to lose without losing your cool is a skill, like learning to ride a bike.___1.___ and when you can handle losing; people will call you a good sport.

Why must we learn to lose gracefully(文雅地)?Here is the answer:

___2.___But any time two teams or kids are facing each other in a game or contest, someone will lose (unless it’s a tie平局).Kids lose in small ways, like in a game of checkers(西洋跳棋),but they also might face losing in bigger ways, like when their team loses a championship(錦標賽) game.

__3.____So it’s not surprising that kids don’t like it. Adults don’t like it either, but everyone can learn to control how they react to a loss. In other words, what should you do when you lose?

The most difficult thing is that sometimes you might react before you even realize it. For instance, your little league game comes to an end and, in a flash, the other team has won. __4.____Oh dear, you probably don’t want to be crying right now, even though it’s ok that you feel sad.

Kids who are good sports don’t freak out (表現(xiàn)失常)when they lose. __5.___Kids might not be as eager to play with someone who gets angry all the time and won’t ever give the other guy or girl a break.

2.A 根據(jù)下句話But any time two teams or kids are facing each other in a game or contest, someone will lose可知很多人都想贏。但是在比賽中一定有失敗者。故A項符合上下文。

3.B 根據(jù)下句So it’s not surprising that kids don’t like it.可知孩子不不喜歡它，說明也許就是指失敗，故B項符合上下文。

4.E 根據(jù)前一句For instance, your little league game comes to an end and, in a flash, the other team has won.可知對方贏得了比賽，那么可能是對方在慶祝，而我們在流淚。故E項符合上下文。
