(23-24八年级上·福建宁德·期中)Most Valuable(最有价值的) Player was what I hoped to get. Back in Grade 6, soccer became my favorite sport. I wasn’t the best player on the team at the beginning of the year. But after a lot of hard work, by the end of the year, I felt that I was the MVP.
As the soccer season went on, we finally finished second in the city. Our team was a very good team, and I was a big part of that. Kenny was the captain(队长), but I was the player who scored the most goals in the team. Kenny would always pass the ball to all his players.
At the end of the year, there was a sports dinner at school. People got prizes for excellent performance. Everyone on the team felt that I would get the MVP. At the end of the dinner, the teacher stood up and announced(宣布) the winners for the prizes, “The winner for MVP is—Kenny.”
I was shocked. After the event, the teacher came up to me and explained. He said, “You were the best player on the team, but you did not pass the ball. You were out there for yourself but not for the team. You have to know that soccer is about the team, not about one individual player.” I was embarrassed(窘迫的) by what the teacher said.
But now I am in Grade 9 and the captain of the soccer team. I learned that a team sport is not just about you. It is about “us”. Now I am both a better player and a better captain because of this.
