"Yeah, a BATTLE!" said William, pulling my arm. "You see that, John?"

I looked up from my desk to see Ms. Chow writing on the board, "Battle of the Books!" She smiled and then said, "Are you ready to go into the battle? Get prepared for it next week!"

"Is it a reading contest?" I was so excited that I forgot to raise my hand first.

"Good question, John!" said Ms. Chow. "It is not a race and you are not going to beat each other. We are not going to see who can read the fastest or the most books, but you are going to form a team of three and then set a reading goal for your team. If your team meet your goal by the end of this month, you will get a prize!"

Even though the prize was something silly, that still sounded pretty good to me. I turned towards William immediately, saying, "Shall we be teammates?"

"Yes, for sure!" he said. William and I liked a lot of the same books, so we could set a goal together.

The bell rang before Ms. Chow could explain any more rules. William and I were about to begin our discussion when Lily passed my desk and said "Teammates?" to William and me. Lily was a girl from Spain and she could read super-fast in both English and Spanish! If we set a goal like reading books by authors from different countries, she could help the team for sure.

"Yeah, of course!" William and I nodded. I had my team! The three of us settled down and started a discussion immediately, trying to figure out what we needed to do to get the prize. Just then, I saw my best friend Tom running towards my desk. I could clearly see the expectation shining in his eyes.

Hearing what Lily said, we agreed with her suggestion.

For Mrs White, nothing the baby's smiling face in her life.

In the sport of track and field, athletes compete not only with one another but against themselves to achieve a new personal best. Aiming to 1 his own record, Cerveny pushed himself hard. However, his legs cramped (抽筋) and 2  him with only 200 meters to go. Determined to 3 , Cerveny rose from the ground and continued on, only to fall again after another 50 meters.

4 , his coach asked Cerveny if he wanted to stop. He didn't. With great 5 Cerveny pulled himself up and with a(n) 6 pace, moved forward for one final push. 7 , it wasn't enough. 100 meters from the finish line, his legs simply 8 .

Before his coach could 9  him, another runner-Brandon-was at his side to help. His first attempt to get Cerveny up failed, but he 10  to quit too. With a second pull, Cerveny was 11 . At a measured jog, the two completed the final 100 meters of the course, with Cerveny holding Brandon for 12 . Brandon even made sure Cerveny crossed the finish line first, securing his 13  a faster time. 

In today's 14 world in which the emphasis in athletics is so often put on breaking records, it was 15  to see that for an athlete like Brandon, the value of true sportsmanship still had legs.
