完形填空
It has been difficult to sit on the bench the majority of my high school basketball career,to watch my
team from the sideline and
1 why I am not good enough to be on the floor.
2 endless hours of work
and devotion, pushing myself through drill after drill, the
3 thing I want is to be a cheerleader. The
feeling of being
4 is sometimes too much and drives me to
5 on the spot. I often feel as though my
efforts are wasted and my time is eaten away, devoted to
6 .
It is heartbreaking to be a spectator(旁观者) for the game I love,knowing that no one has enough
7 to give me the chance to
8 on the floor. Tears well up, but I hold them back. I shouldn't be so
9
over something so silly.
Away from the game, it's easier to put my thoughts together,
10 letting my emotions drive my
reasoning. I consider
11 I am where I am. I have played football my whole life. I have a passion for
the
12 and always have. There is nothing like the excitement of
13 : the swish of the net, the sweat
rolling off my cheeks, even the bruises(青肿) are battle wounds worn
14 after every game.
Even if I don't play much, I participate in every
15 . I am part of a team of girls who
16 together
like a family. I am there for them,
17 they are for me.
Should I move on? Or should I stay with my team and pursue my passion just a little longer?
The decision isn't difficult when I consider the
18 that being a part of a team brings me -and not just
any team,
19 my team. I love basketball and my teammates. When I think about that, my view from the
bench really isn't so bad
