【题目】How to Be Good at Sports

If sports are something that interests you, it stands to reason that you would want to be good at them. Here are some tips that can help you become a good player.

Set ambitious but realistic goals. If you want to be great at sports, you need to set your aims high. 【1】 Instead, you should take a look at what you are, and figure out where you think you would like to be. Give yourself a suitable amount of time to achieve that goal.

Be patient. 【2】 Impatient athletes tend to make poor ones. If you're not patient, you'll try to jump into advanced techniques long before you're ready. You'll feel discouraged when you don't see immediate improvement.

Join a sports team. Most of the sports teams are free to join. If you go to school, you should go for team tryouts when they're happening. 【3】

Accept criticism. When you play sports, you will unavoidably receive criticism, whether from a coach or other players. 【4】 Are they angry because you missed a pass, or do they sincerely want to help you improve? In a lot of cases, you can use criticism as motivation to get better.

【5】 A skill become mastered when you’re able to do it without thinking. Given enough time and practice, a skill will eventually fall under this category. When in a game, you won't have time to think everything through, so practice until it's all automatic.

A. Skills are often slow to build.

B. This does not mean being unrealistic.

C. You need to take most of it with a grain of salt.

D. Practice until your skills become second nature.

E. You also need to be clear about what you are good at.
