Youth Basketball: Life Lessons to Teach Your Team 21. When an individual player or a team as a whole puts in extra work and the results pay off on the court, what better time is there to communicate his message? 22. Players at all levels can quickly fall into a pattern of using only the skills that they’re most comfortable with. Younger players might only dribble with their strong hand. Therefore, encourage your players to take chances and reward their efforts even if the result is less than optimal. 23. Challenges are easier when taken in bite-size chunks. By getting a little better every day, the process is more comfortable than if you try to make a drastic improvement in one practice. It’s a good message for players to remember: Try their best at every practice. 24. In basketball as in life, players will not always come out on the winning side. Learning how to deal with one’s emotions immediately after losing a close game is an important experience for players, even if it doesn’t feel too good at the time.

Once upon a time, there were three tortoises who were friends. One of them was a large tortoise, one was a medium-sized tortoise and the third was a small tortoise. One day they went into a restaurant and ordered some cake. While they were waiting for the cake, they remembered that they hadn’t brought any money. “Hey, we forgot to bring money to pay for our cake,” the big tortoise said. “The little tortoise can go home and get it,” the medium-sized tortoise said. “He’s the youngest, so he should be the one to go.” The little tortoise wasn’t very pleased at this, but he knew he shouldn’t argue with his elders, so he said, “All right, I’ll go. But you must promise not to eat my cake while I’m away.” The large tortoise and the medium-sized tortoise agreed, and the little tortoise set off for home to get some money. A few days later, the big tortoise said to the medium-sized tortoise, “Let’s eat the little tortoise’s cake. I’m hungry again.” “So am I,” the medium-sized tortoise said, and reached for the cake. As she did so, the little tortoise shouted from near the door of the restaurant, “If you touch my cake, I won’t go and get the money.” 26. The three tortoises _______.

A. hadn’t gone very far after a few days B. had returned quite quickly C. had brought the money with him D. couldn’t hear the other tortoises’ words from the door Passage two Questions 31 to 35 are based on the following passage. Once there was an unknown young painter made a living by painting portraits (pictures of persons). One day, a rich man came by and asked him to draw a portrait. They agreed on the pay of 10,000 dollars. Soon the portrait was done. But the rich man hit on a bad idea, “The man in the painting is me. If I don’t buy this painting, no one else will. Why should I pay so much money for it?” So he said, “I will only pay 3,000 dollars.” The young artist was shocked and strongly argued on fairness. But the rich man just didn’t listen to him, “I ask you at last, will you sell it 3,000 dollars or not?” The young artist knew the rich man went back on his words on purpose, so he said calmly, “No, I’d prefer not to sell the painting rather than to be humiliated by you. Today you break your word and someday you must pay 20 times, we’d better wait and see.” Before long the painter moved out of the sad place, visiting many famous teachers to study hard on painting night and day. More than a dozen years passed, the rich man had already forgotten the artist’s painting and words. Until one day, some of his friends came to tell him, “Something is so strange! We pay a visit to a famous artist’s exhibition of paintings, in which one painting is marked 200,000 dollars and the man in the painting looks exactly the same as you. It is so ridiculous that the title of the painting is Thief.” It came to him a terrible blow. He immediately thought up the young painter years ago. If the painting was really the one he broke his promise that year, it would be terrible. He went to the exhibition right away. As expected, the painting named Thief was no other than that one he had broken his words that year. He quickly apologized to the artist and paid 200,000 dollars to buy back the portrait. The young painter finally made the rich man lower his head. Nobody can really humiliate or beat you as long as you put all your heart in what you are interested in. And this young man’s name, was Pablo Picasso. 31. The rich man changed his mind to pay only 3,000 dollars, because _____. 　 A. nobody else would buy the painting except him 　 B. the painting was just worth that price 　 C. he wanted to bully the young man with no fame 　 D. he was short of money at that time 32. The underlined word “humiliated” (Line 2, Para. 4) probably means _____. 　 A. 羞辱 B. 擊敗 C. 打擊 D. 輕視 33. We can learn from the passage that the young painter _____. 　 A. became very famous because of the painting Thief 　 B. finally made his word come true 　 C. painted another painting in memory of the rich man 　 D. changed his name many years later 34. According to the passage, the writer wants to tell us that _____. 　 A. one should become famous to stop others from bully him/her 　 B. we must make a lot of money to make others respect us 　 C. we should not look down unknown artists 　 D. no one but yourself can defeat you 35. Which is the best title for the passage? 　 A. Pablo Picasso B. The Painting Titled Thief 　 C. Pay for What You Should Pay D. Cost of Going Back on One’s Word 得 分 評閱人 III.
