Sport is not only physically challenging, but it can also be mentally challenging. Criticism from coaches, parents, and other teammates, as well as pressure to win can create too much anxiety or stress for young athletes. Stress can be physical, emotional, or psychological and research has indicated that it can lead to burnout. Burnout has been described as dropping or quitting of an activity that was at one time enjoyable.
The early years of development are critical years for learning about oneself. The sport setting is one where valuable experiences can take place. Young athletes can, for example, learn how to cooperate with others, make friends, and gain other social skills that will be used throughout their lives. Coaches and parents should be aware, at all times, that their feedback to youngsters can greatly affect their children. Youngsters may take their parents’ and coaches’ criticisms to heart and find a fault in themselves.
Coaches and parents should also be cautious that youth sport participation does not become work for children. The outcome of the game should not be more important than the process of learning the sport and other life lessons. In today’s youth sport setting, young athletes may be worrying more about who will win instead of enjoying themselves and the sport. Following a game, many parents and coaches focus on the outcome and find fault with youngsters’ performances. Positive
support should be provided regardless of the outcome. Research indicates that positive support motivates have a greater effect on learning than criticism. Again, criticism can create high levels of stress, which can lead to burnout.
(   )1. An effective way to prevent the burnout of young athletes is to     .
A. make sports less competitive
B. increase their sense of success
C. reduce their mental stress
D. make sports more challenging
C
(   )2. According to the passage, sport is positive for young people in that it     .
A. can help them learn more about society 
B. enables them to find faults in themselves
C. can provide them with valuable experiences
D. teaches them how to set realistic goals for themselves
C
(   )3. Many coaches and parents are in the habit of
criticising young athletes     .
A. believing that criticism is beneficial to their early development
B. without realising criticism may destroy their self-confidence
C. in order to make them remember life’s lessons
D. so as to put more pressure on them
B
(   )4. The author’s purpose in writing the passage is to
    .
A. teach young athletes how to avoid burnout
B. persuade young children not to worry about criticism
C. stress the importance of positive support to children
D. discuss the skill of combining criticism with encouragement

Each fall brings a bounty of opportunities that beckon (吸引,诱惑) you to become involved in your school community.
 1 
 2  Clubs are probably the easiest and most direct route to getting involved. Typically, high schools have clubs that focus on a wide variety of topics. Do you have a great affinity (爱好) for German films  3  If you answered “yes”, then you are in
luck! There are probably clubs for that. Usually, the best way to approach joining a club is attending an after-school fair at the beginning of the school year.  
Try out for a sport! If you have any interest in a sport your school offers, there is absolutely no harm done in trying out. The worst that can happen is that you don’t make it and have to try out next year. Sports teams are a great way to make friends with people who have similar interests.  4  Sports provide a boost in physical and emotional health.
Volunteer!  5  It could be answering phones in the main office at school, running passes to students during your study, or even travelling abroad to provide international aid. My point is that volunteer work can be an incredible path to discover passions and shape your personality.
All in all, if you’re looking for a fresh start, now is the time! Choosing to get involved in your school by joining a club, trying out for a sport, or volunteering is undoubtedly something you will not regret.
A. Join a club!
B. Here are a few ways to get involved.

The word “sport” first meant something that people did in their free time. Later it often meant hunting wild animals and birds. About a hundred years ago, the word was first used for organised games. This is the usual meaning of the word today. People spend a lot of their spare time playing football, basketball, tennis and many other sports. Such people play because they want to. A few people are paid for the sport they play. These people are called professional sportsmen. They may be sportsmen for only a few years, but during that time the best ones can earn a lot of money.
For example, a professional footballer in England earns more than 300,000 pounds a year. The stars can earn a lot more. International golf and tennis champions can make more than 500,000 pounds a year. Of course, only a few sportsmen can earn as much money as that. It is only possible in sports for individuals, like golf, tennis and motor racing. Perhaps the most surprising thing about sportsmen and money is this: the stars can earn more money from advertising than from sports. An
advertisement for sports equipment doesn’t simply say, “Buy our things.” It says, “Buy the same shirt and shoes as…” Famous sportsmen can even advertise things like watches and food. They allow the companies to use their names or photographs and they are paid for this. Sport is no longer just something for people’s spare time.

How to Deal with Losing in Sports
Winning and losing go hand-in-hand when it comes to sports. Great athletes never let the highs get too high, or the lows get too low. The outcome of a match is uncertain. The only thing that is certain is the competition itself.  1  The outcome is just the result of all the hard work put in.
Congratulate your opponents after a loss. Respect your opponents because they put in as much work, or more than you. This shows respect for the opponent and respect for the contest.
Accept the fact that the loss is not one’s fault. This is harder to do in an individual sport, but absolutely important in a team sport.  2  Don’t get down on yourself. If competing in an individual sport, accept that losing is a part of competing and move on.
Examine why you lost the competition. Ask yourself if you did everything possible to prepare for the competition. Ask yourself if you gave it your all during the competition.  3  This is crucial if competing in an individual sport. If competing in a team sport, recognise that everyone isn’t perfect and examine the loss from the team perspective.
 4  Practise more, or practise better. Correct whatever mistakes you made during the match. Get bigger, stronger, faster, smarter and do whatever it takes.
Seek out the support and encouragement of teammates and coaches. Don’t allow yourself to think negatively. Avoid negative people.  5 
Never accuse an opponent of cheating, even if it was true. Again, this will make you seem as if you are looking for excuses.
A. Don’t put the blame on anyone.
B. Work harder to get better.
C. Train hard to achieve your aim.
D. Winning is No.1 for great athletes.
E. Great athletes love the competition.
F. Stay positive and trust in your value.
G. Analyse any mistakes you might have made.
