The seventh game of any play-off series is always special, win or lose. It always has an

edge-of-your-sear, heart-in-your-throat intensity unlike any other. One play, on e shot, one save

may make all the difference.

    But there are other things that make our games and sports so special.

    For example, where we play our sports is often one of the best things about the games. Think

of it: What is as perfect as a fresh sheet of ice after the Zamboni machine(赞博尼磨冰机)has

made its final pass and left the surface as smooth as glass ? Or a swimming pool on a summer

morning, clear and calm, before the first swimmer has broken the water?

To me a freshly mowed and lined soccer lied is as beautiful as any painting. So is a golf course in the early morning, or in the evening when the sun is setting.

The stuff we play with is wonderful, too. Is there anything that feels as good in your hand as a brand-new baseball? Or a nice leather football? Grab hold either, and you just have to play a game of catch.

The clothes are good too. Sports uniforms are much more colorful and comfortable than regular clothes. Maybe that’s why so many kids stay in their sports uniforms long after their games are over.

No shoes feel better on my feet than my golf shoes. Maybe that’s because I know I am going to have fun whenever I put them on.

We talk so much about winning in sports. But if you are the kind who is happy only when their team wins, then sports will let you down. After all, too team or player wins all the time.

But if you can learn to enjoy parts of sports that have nothing to do with winning or losing-the feel of a favorite bat or stick in your hand, or how your heart beats when you put on your uniform and run onto the field-then sports will always be fun. Whether you win or lose.

42.According to the writer, people are advised         .

       B.as comfortable wearing for sports

       C.as particular desire of children

       D.as most favorite of sportsmen
