五、完形填空
My 10-year-old son, Luke, was in an American football team. Once his team played against a top team, which had never
lost
1 any matches before.
At an important time in the game, my son got the
ball
2 and was running fast for a touchdown (触地得分). Finally, there was only one player in front of him. Luke's teammate Mario made a
hard
3 block (阻挡), hitting the player to the ground.
That was a good chance to score. But surprisingly, Luke slowed, stopped,
turned around
4, and ran back to the boy on the ground.
Fans on my son's team were
angry
5 to see this and started saying terrible things at my son.
I ran down onto the field. When I arrived at Luke's side, he looked up at me and said, "Dad, I must come back! I heard a
leg
6 break. I heard it! I knew if I scored, it would take more time for anyone to notice him, and he would be
hurting
7 during all that time."
Luke continued, "I remembered what you taught me—good sport is more than
winning
8, so I stopped and came back." "Dad, was I wrong?" he asked
uncertainly
9.
"No, son," I shook my head.
With
10
no more words, I hugged Luke, trying to show him how proud I was.
Luke was right—the boy broke his leg and had to be sent to hospital right away. The next day, Luke received a thank-you card from the boy. That was when Luke really won.
