Knowing the meanings of idioms and verb phrases can improve your English. The Winning Team
Peter kept his eyes on the ground and felt a heavy weight on his shoulders as he walked home alone. It was the worst day of his life. His mind would not stop thinking about what happened only just an hour ago on the school soccer field. How could he have missed scoring
that goal? He had let his whole team down. His stupid mistake made him angry. His team lost the game because of him. He was really worried that his coach may kick him o? the team.As soon as he walked through the door, his father asked, “What’s wrong, son?” Peter’s feelings were written all over his face. “I lost the game,” Peter replied. Then he went into his room without another word. Ten minutes later, Peter heard his father knocking on his bedroom door. He opened the door to let him in.
“Look, Peter. I don’t know what happened. But whatever it was, don’t be too hard on yourself.”“I lost the game, Dad. I failed my team. They’ll probably never let me play again.”
“Soccer is about team e?ort. You’re not the only reason your team lost. If you have a good team, you should support each other. Besides, winning or losing is only half the game. The other half is learning how to communicate with your teammates and learning from your mistakes.”
Peter didn’t say anything but what his father said made him think carefully.The next day, Peter went to soccer practice with courage rather than fear in his heart.
“Hey, guys,” he said to his teammates. “I’m really sorry about yesterday. We were so close to winning that game. But I think if we continue to pull together, we’re going to win the next one.”
To his surprise and relief, his teammates all nodded in agreement.“Yeah,” they said, “don’t worry about it. It’s never just one person’s fault. We should think about how we can do better next time.”
Peter smiled. It made him feel lucky to know that he was on a winning team.____ Peter got home and went into his room.

was winning the nation-wide English speech
competition last year.
At first, I didn’t know what to write for my
speech, but after talking to my teacher and
reading some books, I had some ideas and
started writing. Then I practiced my speech
many times. On the day of the competition, I saw many
people there. This made me feel very nervous.
I started to worry that I would forget my
speech. Then I remembered what my teacher
told me--close my eyes and take deep breaths.
I did that and it made me feel much better.
When my turn came, I gave my speech with
confidence. I waited anxiously for the results, and when
I heard that I was the first prize winner, I
jumped up and down in joy.
This experience taught me that being well-
prepared is very important. It helps to read a
lot, and also to ask people around you for
advice. Most importantly, have confidence in
yourself!Exercises一、单项选择1. The rainy day _________ me sad and angry.
