In the 7th grade, I was known as the smart girl-the girl who always got the highest grades. No one really expected me to be good at sports. I didn't, either.
In PE classes, we played volleyball, and I was one of the worst players on my team. I was afraid the whole time that the ball would hit me right in the face. Every time the ball came my way, I would just duck and move away
"Kelly, you should just stick to getting high grades, "one of my classmates said"Not all people are born to play sports. And that includes you. "I was hurt but I didn't say anything. Deep down, I believed he was right
One day during break, I saw a few girls playing soccer happily. I decided to have a try and asked a girl if I could play. You want to play soccer?!"she laughed. "OK But you have to be on the other team. I don't want my team to lose. "
Anyway, the other team accepted me and the team leader gave me a few suggestions before the game started. However, nothing worked. You can imagine how clumsy（笨拙的）I was on the field. But I heard a voice in my head"You shouldn't give up. You couldn't be that bad at soccer. What you need is just to keep trying. ' Over the next few weeks, I practiced really hard and gradually I became skillful. I started scoring points for my team. Both my team members and our opponents（对手） were shocked. When we had to pick team members, both teams wanted me to play on their side. They would say, "Kelly should be on our team today!She played for your team yesterday!"
I was glad my effort paid off. That spring, I proved（证明）that a brainy girl could also be good at a sport. I took pride in myself.

◆Mind maps for self-analysis（自我分析）
Mind maps can be an excellent way for middle schoolers to share these characteristics with others. Then draw at least three branches（分支）: qualities, hobbies and goals. From here, students can add different branches for each area

People can learn a lot from sports. Teenagers can lean the value of teamwork, organization, leadership, fitness and support from playing sports. All these qualities are great for character-building and for improving socialization skills.

My grandparents are in the middle of a month-long visit with my family. This means I share my sister Indi's room.
"Isn't it fun that we get to be1 ?"said Indi on the first night.
"It is 2 "I said, smiling "Now how about we turn off the light?"
3 Indi is younger than me, her bedtime is earlier than mine, so what I really meant was "How about we turn off the big light so you can go to sleep while I use my mini book light to4 ?"
"Wait!" Indi said. "Will you turn on the fan? I always get5 "
I climbed down from the top bunk（双层床）to turn on the fan, then returned to6 . "Now it's time to sleep, OK?"
"Wait" said Indi. "I can't fall asleep7 listening to stories. "
"I don't want to listen to anything, "I said. "I want to read. "
"I 8 you'll change your mind when you hear it. " Indi pressed the play button 按钮） on 9 CD player.
That night, between the fan and stories, I had a hard time giving all my10 to my book and an even harder time falling asleep. Sharing a room didn't get any11 during the day. My objects kept getting mixed up, covered, and lost. My math book was missing for two days until I found it in Indi's dress-up box!
Finally, we had a family meeting to12 two solutions. First I did my nighttime reading in the living room and didn't 13 go into Indi's room until she's already asleep. That way, I didn't have to listen to stories while I read. Second nobody was allowed to14 the other person's objects without asking.
Every now and then, when my grandparents overhear me grumbling（抱怨）about sharing a room, they remind me to think about how15 we are for everything we have, and I realize they're completely right!
