贵州省贵阳市2020届九年级上学期英语期末考试试卷
A young boy was hungry for success. For him, winning was everything.
One day, the boy was preparing himself for a running competition in his small village. He was to compete with two other young boys. A large crowd gathered there to watch, including a wise old man.
The race began. With his strength and power, the boy easily took the lead. The crowd cheered and waved. The little boy felt proud and important. However, the wise man remained still and calm.
"Another race, another race!" yelled the little boy. The wise old man stepped forward and presented the little boy with two new challengers- an old lady and a blind man.
The race started and the boy was the only one to cross the finishing line. The little boy raised his arms happily. The crowd, however, was silent.
"Race again," said the wise man. "This time, all three of you finish together."
The little boy thought a little, stood in between the blind man and the old lady, and then took them by the hand. The race began and the little boy walked slowly to the finishing line and crossed it. The crowd cheered and waved. The wise man smiled, too.
"Which one of us is the crowd cheering for?" asked the little boy.
"For this race, you have won much more than in any other race you've ever run before." said the wise man. "For this race, the crowd cheered not for any winner!"

In the evening, after I finish my homework, I usually play computer games. I go to bed late, at about eleven o'clock. |
