真题品读
（北京高考）
I used to hate beingcalled uponin classmainlybecause I didn’t like attention drawn to
myself. And unless otherwise assigned 指定 a seat by the teacher, I always chose to sit at
the back of the classroom.
All this changed after Ijoineda sports team. It began when a teacher suggested I try out
for the basketball team. At first I thought it was a crazy idea because I didn’t have a good
sense ofbalance, nor did I have the ability tokeep pace withthe others on the team and
they would tease me. But for the teacher who keptinsistingon my “going for it”, I wouldn’t
have decided to give a try.
Getting up the courage to go to the tryouts was only the half of it! When I first started
attendingthe practice sessions, I didn’t even know the rules of the game, much less what I
was doing. Sometimes I’d getconfusedand take a shot at the wrongdirection— which made
me feel really stupid.Fortunately, I wasn’t the only one “new” at the game, so I decided to
focuson learning the game, do my best at each practice session, and not be too hard on myself
for the things I didn’t know “just yet”.
I practised and practised. Soon I knew the rules and the “moves”. Being part of a team
was fun and motivating. Very soon the competitive part in me was winning over my lack of
confidence. With time, I learnt how to play and made friends in the process — friends who
respectedmy efforts to work hard and be a team player. I never had so much fun!
With my improved self-confidence comes more praise from teachers and classmates. I
have gone from “hiding” in the back of the classroom and not wanting to call attention to
myself, to raising my hand — even when I sometimes was not 100 percent sure I had the
right answer. Now I have more self-confidence in myself.
