playing basketball is an easy way for teens to have fun while buring a few calories.
I usually get bored of sitting on the sofa all day playing video games or watching television. You can play alone. But Playing with teammates is more attractive for me. Besides, when I possess the ball I have the feeling of being the best and no one
could stop me.
I also believe out of all these sports basketball is the best sport to watch on television. When wacthing it, I can take the moves I see the professional perform and add them to my style of play. I take many of my moves from professional basketball players and make them my own. There are a variety of tricks the players perform during games, which make the games much more enjoyable to watch.
My favorite player is Kobe Bryant. He is an all-round athlete and is still going strong at 30 years old. He is a big role model to many kids who enjoy playing this sport. He knows how to play both sides of the game offense and defense. I want to play like him as I continue to get better and better every time I play basketball. Basketball is a great way to get your mind off things and is also a great way
to express yourself. It is a sport that can exercise your whole body. I want to play more and more of it.

书面表达 People can do something to cheat others but can't cheat themselves. However, they finally find those who have been cheated are themselves. I have learned it as a student in Senior One.
At that time, I was so eager to get a high score that I cheated in the exam. Although nobody discovered it, the high mark I got didn't make me happy but guilty for a long time because I couldn't cheat myself. What was worse, I was afraid that my friends would know about it and no longer trusted me. If they looked down upon me I would lose all my friends. From then on I didn't cheat in exams any more.
As can be seen from my experience, cheating is just a way of cheating oneself
so we shouldn't be so stupid.。
