I am sitting in an empty football field after my last high school football game that finished a few hours ago. I’m the mid-field player on my team. But in fact that’s not 1 now. I was the mid-field player because, as I said, this was my 2 game. That’s a good way to end a high school football career (生涯), especially if you win, but even though you don’t, it’s 3 to leave at a high point.
I was eight when I first started playing football. My dad 4 football, and he used to practise with me at home – passing, catching, running. We used to practise almost every evening 5 it got too dark. He tried to teach me everything he knew about the 6 . “Just remember: don’t ever 7 .” “Stay in the game. Don’t lose your concentration (专注).” “Go out there and give 110 percent every time.” Well, that was a long time ago, but I still hear his words 8 in my ears.
I had a lot on my mind 9 the game today. I don’t like things to end, I guess, and this was the last game. I was talking to myself and warning myself about what to do and not to do. I didn’t sleep at all 10 , and when the sun came up this morning, I reached the point where 11 just wanted it all to be over, finished, done. But then when the game started, my mind became 12 . I just lived in this game, this moment. I didn’t hear the crowd, I didn’t feel the cold or the pain, I never felt tired. I just kept my eyes on the 13 , and it was just me and the ball and, inside, a soft, white light 14 me the way to the goal. It was a beautiful, empty feeling.
It’s all over now, and it’s really getting cold here. It’s starting to snow.
5
The sun’s almost gone, and I can 15 see the goal. Now it’s dark and I’m sitting here all alone. Well, I guess it’s time to say good-bye and move on.

V. (2015 .连云港海州) 任务型阅读
As time passes, some people stay by your side while others don’t. That makes you realize that each friendship you have is precious. To have a good friend, you must be one, and sometimes we all need a reminder (提醒) about what makes us good friends. Here are tips to help you to hold your friends. Take a look.
Share a secret.
Telling a friend your secrets will make them feel like you value them more than others, says Peter DeScioli, a researcher in psychology (心理学家) at Harvard University. DeScioli has found that we are more likely to rank someone high up in our friend group if we know that he or she holds us in his or her trust.
Treat him or her like a grownup.
While your friends are in trouble, telling them what they should do doesn’t seem to be a good idea. Edward Deci, a psychology professor at the University of Rochester, US, has found that supporting friends’ autonomy (自主权)—that is, making them feel that they can choose the ways by themselves—creates a better relationship.
Accept that no friendship is perfect.
Fights can be a normal part of family relationships, but when it comes to friendships, people are less comfortable. This feeling can cause friends to give up too fast on their relationships when trouble comes , according to US sociologist (社会学家) Jan Yager. So don’t be afraid of the occasional (偶尔的) quarrel. Once you make it through, your friendship is likely to be stronger than ever.
Ways to (1) your friendship with others

Accept that no friendship is perfect
