Eleven months ago, an act of good sports

题型:阅读理解

问题:

Eleven months ago, an act of good sportsmanship(体育精神)changed a girls’ running race into something bigger.

Jenna Huff received a national sportsmanship award from the US Olympic Committee for what she did for Deb Guthmann.

In the race, Jenna was behind Deb until the final few meters of the 5-kilometer race.

Then something awful happened. Deb’s right hip(髋部)broke. She screamed in pain and stopped.

Jenna had never met Deb and had been taught to pass every runner she could to win.

Instead, Jenna stopped with no hesitation.

“Come on.” Jenna told Deb. “We’re going to run.”

Jenna took Deb’s left elbow with her right hand. She helped her jog the last few meters. At the finishing line, she pushed Deb in front of her, reasoning Deb would have beaten her anyway if not for the injury. That act helped Deb’s team win the regional race and advance to the state meet.

Both girls are now 17.

Jenna is still an athlete for her school.

She and her parents went to Colorado to accept an award for the national sportsmanship award. Jenna had to give a five-minute speech to the crowd, a crowd which included a number of former Olympians. “I’m pretty scared about my speech,” Jenna said the other night when we talked on the phone. “You want to hear part of it?” She read me one part including the words from Albert Einstein: “Each of us comes for a short visit, not knowing why, yet sometimes seeming to a divine(神圣的)purpose. From the standpoint of daily life, however, there is one thing we do know:That we are here for the sake of(为了)others.”

Deb is also still running. She received a full scholarship to Emmanuel College in Franklin Springs, Georgia. The award was because of her excellent academic record and great sports potential.

But she recently got hurt again and was unable to run for weeks.

Even so, I am confident Deb will write a happier ending for herself one day. Both of these young women make you feel confident about the future. They are strong, compassionate(富于同情心的)and smart.

As Einstein said-and as Jenna showed 11 months ago— “we are here for the sake of others”.
