    I started to play chess with my father after school simply because I wanted to 4 him at something. My father was a 5 man, fond of physics, writing, religion…, almost every 6 . He was called a walking dictionary. So, winning in chess against my father would be a 7 that I had intellectual power. On the small chessboard, I had a chance to 8 my so-called inability.

    Game after game, I wanted to beat my father even more. I started to study chess books and play against a chess computer to 9 my skills. One weekend, I finally checkmated(将杀)my father on a ferry ride, which made me feel 10.

Our team was facing a high school which only excellent students attended. It was 14 a match between a special needs student and a smart soul.

The Chess Competition

    I had signed up to play in the School Chess Competition two months before. I'd been counting the days, filling my afternoons with practice games and begging everyone I knew to play 1 with me.

    Soon the competition was about to begin. I would be competing against twenty 2, and all of us would be battling for just a few trophies. Glancing up at the prizes, I could just 3 one of them sitting on my bookcase.

    My daydream was interrupted by the announcement of the 4 round. "Shake hands and start playing" said the judge. I 5 across the board and saw that my first opponent (对手) was almost too small to see over the top of the table. "Aha" I thought. "This will be a(n) 6 win."

    One unexpected game later, I 7 my overconfidence. My opponent, the nine-year-old girl, had beaten me in only 10 minutes! I hid my disappointment and 8 her. "Good game! You're a fantastic player," I said with a sincere smile.

    The next three rounds went by very quickly, with each game proving more 9 than the one before. By evening I had one win and three losses. After the second game, I was ready to go home and give up, 10 I stayed anyway, smiling and sincerely congratulating each of my opponents.

    As the trophies were being awarded, I listened 11, applauding each winner as his or her name was called.

    It was hard to hide my disappointment, but I tried. 12, I heard the announcer say my name. "For excellent chess etiquette (礼仪), a friendly 13, and great determination, the Good Sport Award 14 to Dustin Hodges," the judge declared. It was amazing and I smiled broadly as I walked up to accept the prize. Although it wasn't the trophy that I had hoped for, the gold cup looks pretty good on my bookcase. I think it won't stay there forever, and I plan to 15 it with the championship trophy next year.
