24、The Most Valuable Player (MVP) award(奖) was what I hoped to get. Yes, MVP — the best. Win this award and everyone thinks you are the best player on your team.

Back in Grade 6, football became my favourite sport. I wasn’t the best player on the team at the beginning of the year. But after a lot of hard practice, by the end of the year, I felt that I was the MVP.

As the football season went on, our team made it to the playoffs (季后赛). We finished second in the city. We were a very good team, and I was a big part of that. Kenny was the captain(队长), but I had the most goals on the team. Kenny would always pass the ball to all his players. At the end of the year, there was a sports dinner at school. People got awards for wonderful performances. Everyone felt that I would get the MVP. When the dinner almost finished, the coach stood up and announced(宣布) the winners for the awards. “The winner for MVP is ... Kenny!” he said.

I didn’t understand why. After the event, the coach came up to me and explained. He said, “You were the best player on the team, but you did not pass the ball. You were out there for yourself and not for the team. You have to realize that football is about the team, not about one individual player.” That night, I did receive a trophy (奖杯). It was called the Most Improved Player (MIP).

Now I’m in Grade 9 and the captain of the football team. I feel that I have learned that a team sport is not just “you”. It’s about “us”. I am both a better player and a better captain because of this.

B．personal

C．wonderful

D．important

C．The coach thought that the writer wasn’t the best player.

25、My dad is very unique（独特的）because of his personality and lifestyle. For example, put his watch on his left hand, even though he’s a lefty, and parking his car only in the garage is just his thing and doesn’t change.

My father only wears suits during the week because it’s something very professional and formal. He loves to teach what he knows, from teaching my mother, aunt, and sisters driving skills to teaching his kids vocabulary. Also, whenever he is asked to do something at work, whatever it is, he will always complete the task on time.

My mother buys most of his clothes, as he hates big crowds. In his house, children watch TV only after finishing all the homework, which he believes is the best, because the child does his homework and still stays happy.

One of my father’s main focuses（重心）in life is making sure his children grow up the right way like he did.

He grew up with one sister in Chicago. As he got older, he got married to my mother who is three years younger than him.

My dad is a person with many qualities. His personality is just very wonderful to live with. The manners he shows are so good and probably much better than most people. I admire my father and want to be just like him when I grow up.

26、“USA? Britain? Which country is better to study in?”We often hear such discussions. As China opens its doors, studying abroad has become a dream for many Chinese students. They want to learn about the world.

It’s true that studying abroad can help students develop themselves. Language skills will improve and it may be easier to find jobs.

But there are problems that should be considered. Language is the first. Students must spend a lot of time learning another language and getting used to a different culture.

Students must also learn to live without parents’ care and deal with all kinds of things they haven’t had to do before, like looking after themselves. There are reports about Chinese students abroad sinking into an ocean of difficulties and giving up easily. When they have to take care of themselves, it is hard for students to study well.

Finally, studying abroad brings a heavy burden(负担) to the family. For most Chinese parents, the cost of studying abroad is very high. But is it worth it?

We know that there are many famous people who succeed in great things through their hard work in China. Liu Xiang is a good example. Once an American teacher invited him there but he refused. He kept training hard with his Chinese teacher. He surprised the world when he won a gold medal at the Athens Olympics.
