17、lf. It is only later when he has aged and been through many battles that he learns an important lesson: there is no “I ” in “team”. There is no better example of the value of teamwork than the Boston Celtics. Paul Pierce, Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett were all superstars on three different teams. Yet,
18、 none of them had any titles to show for it. Then, last season, they decided to sacrifice money and individual statistics to play together. Garnett and Allen joined Pierce on the Celtics and changed the NBA in the process. It started in simple ways. Garnett and Allen are two of the most intense athl
19、etes in the world. They treat every second of every practice like it is the NBA championship. If you want to play alongside them then you will have to do the same. So, the young guys on the Celtics started giving their full effort too. Pierce had been the star of the Celtics for many years. He used
20、to shoot the ball many times a game. But with the addition of Allen and Garnett he shot less and focused on defense. His selflessness showed the young players that doing what made the team better was the only thing that mattered. When the Celtics were winning and the game was almost over, Garnett, P
21、ierce and Allen would come out of the game. But they wouldnt just sit on the bench. Instead, they stood and cheered and screamed for their teammates. They wanted to support their friends and teammates. Now, the guys who dont play know they can still affect the game by cheering so they scream and che
22、er when Garnett, Allen and Pierce are playing. The Celtics have developed a strong relationship. They are more than just teammates. They are brothers. The result: the Boston Celtics won the 2008 NBA championship and are considered the favorites to win the Eastern Conference championship again this y

Take 200 boys, between the ages of 12 and 16, and investigate their backgrounds and environm
28、ent. Then predict their chances for the future. The students, after consulting social statistics, talking to the boys and working out data, concluded that 90 percent of the boys would spend some time in prison. Twenty-five years later another group of graduate students was given the job of testing t
29、he prediction. They went back to the same area. Some of the boysby then menwere still there. A few of them had died and some had moved away, but they got in touch with 180 of the original 200. They found that only four of the group had ever been sent to prison. Why was it that these men, who had liv
30、ed in a breeding(滋生) place of crime, had such a surprisingly good record? The researchers were continually told: Well, there was a teacher. They pressed further, and found that in 75 percent of the cases it was the same woman. The researchers went to this teacher, now living in a home for retired te
31、achers. How had she made this remarkable influence over that group of children? Could she give them any reason why these boys should have remembered her? No, she said, I really couldnt.

The concept of the course is to give students a cha
36、nce to really develop both outdoor skills and life skills. The NOLS does an amazing job in designing their courses so that students get a full range of experiences from which they can learn many new things.We spent the first part of our semester obtaining our Wilderness First Responder certificates.
37、 This involved a 10-day, 80-hour, EMT taught course at the NOLS base camp in Patagonia. We learned many medical skills that all could be applied to everyday environments as well as the wilderness we were about to enter. After the first part of the semester, we set off on a 30-day sea expedition alon
38、g the coast of the southern tip of Chile. During this expedition we learned a lot of useful skills for our future life.

39、 with my own power was amazing.The next part of our semester was another 30-day expedition traveling through the Andes mountain range of southern Chile and Argentina. Again we learned many technical outdoor skills and some great life skills, such as how to be effective leaders and how to function as
40、 a single group. The highlight of this part was being able to ice climb on a glacier using anchors and ropes that we set up ourselves.The final part of the NOLS semester was a 10-day small group expedition.

45、und stomach”. The issue here is not the accuracy of Tolstoys descriptionit seems not that far off from historical accountsbut his choice of facts: other things that could be said of the man are not said. We are meant to understand the difference of a warring commander in the body of a fat little Fre
46、nchman. Tolstoys Napoleon could be any man wandering in the streets and putting a little of powdered tobacco up his noseand that is the point.It is a way the novelist uses to show the moral nature of a character.

48、is stopped. “That is what you will have gained by engaging me in the war!” he shouts.
