六、阅读短文,选择正确的答案。
Tom is a 12-year-old boy. He likes running very much, but he is not good at it. Last month, there was a running race at his school. Tom wanted to join in it. His friends told him he might not win, but Tom decided to have a try.
To run well, Tom practised every day after school. He ran for 30 minutes each day. Sometimes he felt tired and wanted to stop, but he told himself, “I must keep trying and try my best.”
On the race day, many students ran fast. Tom ran as fast as he could. He didn’t give up at any time. At last, he didn’t get the first prize, but he finished the race. His teacher said, “You are great. Trying your best is more important than winning.”
