Sport or Education?

  Today was our last basketball game of the season. It was so great; not only did we win, but we also remained undefeated for the entire season. Those hours of basketball practice every day really paid off. My coach said that I have a lot of potential and that I could be really good. I really love playing basketball, but sometimes I feel that all those hours of practice cut into my study time. It’s really important for me to get good grades because I also want to go to college and be a doctor. I don’t know which to choose — doctor or basketball player. My parents always tell me that even if I want to make a career as a basketball player, I still need a good education to fall back on because I could get injured playing basketball and that could end my dreams to be a professional basketball player. My parents also told me that there are some professional athletes who have won Olympic medals and they are also doctors. So, I guess you can have your cake and eat it too! That really inspired me and made me realize that I can try my best to be both a doctor and a basketball player.

  potential n. 潜力

  cut into 侵犯,打断

  fall back on 求助于,退到,回头再说

  inspire v. 鼓舞

运动还是学习?

  今天是我们这个球季的最后一场篮球赛。球赛太精彩啦!我们不但赢了,还保持整个球季全胜的记录。每天花在练球上的时间都值得了。教练说我潜力十足,前途无量。我真的爱打篮球,不过有时候这些练习会打断学习的时间。考得好成绩对我来说很重要,因为我想进大学读书,将来成为一名医生。怎么办?要当医生还是篮球员?我不知道。我的父母总是告诉我,即使我要打篮球谋生,还是得好好学习,因为打篮球可能会导致受伤,如果当篮球运动员的梦想不能成真,那么在学校所受的教育就可以派上用场了。他们还告诉我,在奥运会上夺魁的这些选手们,有些就是医生呢!所以,我想两者都可以兼顾吧!这些话让我灵光一现,了解到只要努力,自己是可以边受医生的养成训练,边继续篮球运动生涯的!
