85、 be good at something. I was only a B student. I didnt have any girlfriends and I didnt have a job. But the summer after I graduated from high school, I decided that I would try my hardest and learn how to play basketball. I woke up every day at 5:00 a.m. to run and do other exercises. Then, I went
86、to the local gym where many people played basketball every day. I played with those guys from 9:00 a.m. until noon every day for two months. I got better really quickly since I put all my effort into my training. I even asked the other guys to help me. Sonny was a tall guy who taught me how to shoot, and Skip Higgins was a short guy who taught me how to handle the ball well. Im not going to make the college team this year or anything crazy like that, but I do think all the hard effort paid off. Now, Im a great basketball player and my body is in top shape, too. 版权所有：高考资源网()
