The NBA has a new rule this season .It’s called “zero tolerance.” NBA referees(裁判)are not letting players complain too long or too loudly about a ref’s call. A player who does can be given a technical foul(犯规. Two technical fouls and the player is out of the game.
The players don’t like the new rule and want the NBA to change it. They think it’s only natural to get upset during a close, hard-fought game if a call goes against you.
But I like the “zero-tolerance” rule and wish other sports would follow the NBA’s example. Wouldn’t it be more enjoyable if players stopped arguing the calls and just played the game?
The biggest reason I like the new rule is that it sets a good example for younger athletes. When kids(and coaches and parents)see professionals such as Rasheed Wallace of the Detroit Pistons yelling at the refs and arguing every call ,they think it’s okay to do the same. They think it’s part of the game.
But yelling at refs and arguing calls should never be part of any kids’ games. Kids should be taught to forget about the ref’s calls and concentrate on improving their skills and playing their best.
Secondly, all athletes need to learn that you control only one thing in a game, and that’s your own performance .You can’t control what the other players or coaches do . And you certainly can’t control the calls the referees make.
Finally, everyone, from NBA all-stars to 8-year-olds, should remember that being a basketball referee is a tough job. The ref has to make dozens of split-second(即时的)calls. No hesitation. No second chances. Not even the best referee gets every call right.
Maybe if the players, coaches and fans who scream at the referees had to wear a whistle and call a few games, .

Everybody cheats. Whether it’s the taxi driver who tricks a visitor and takes them the long way round, or the shop assistant who doesn’t give the correct change, or the police officer who accepts a bribe (贿赂) – everybody’s at it. Cheats in the nest include the scientist whose research was based on fake data, the game show competitors who worked with a friend in the audience or win a million pounds, and the doctor who made up his qualifications and wasn’t really a doctor at all. Everybody cheats; nobody’s playing the game.
???? Is cheating acceptable, a natural way of surviving and being successful? Or is it something that should be frowned on, and young people discouraged from doing? If it’s the latter how can we explain to children why so many bend the rules?
Take sport for example. The Word Cup was filled with cheating. Whether diving, pretending to be hurt or denying a handball, footballers will do anything for a free – kick or a penalty shot. France striker Henry denied cheating to win the free – kick which led to his side’s second goal in their 3 – 1 victory over Spain. Many footballers, however, are often putting it on. Whatever the nationality there’s one common plot: the player rolls over holding their leg, ankle or head seeming to be in great pain. As a result a yellow card and / or free – kick is given for the foul and then, a few seconds later, the player is up and about as if nothing had happened ! The ref (裁判) may be taken in by it but youngsters watching the game aren’t. They also see their heroes getting away with it.
Of course it’s not just football. In 1998 the Tour de France, the world’s greatest cycling event, was hit by a drug – taking scandal (丑闻). The 40 bottles of forbidden drugs found with the Fustian team caused a massive investigation that almost caused the Tour to be abandoned. One rider, Veronique, was banned for 9 months. He claimed: “You have cheats in sport, just as you do in business – there will always be people trying to take a short cut. At least we’re not turning a blind eye to the problem, which other sports are.”
Is it all unavoidable? There’s huge pressure on all athletes to perform for their fans and for their sponsors. It’s success, money and power that rule professional sport rather than an honest attempt to do the best one can.
Meanwhile companies around the world are losing billions of dollars to fake products. From cut price CDs and DVDs to sportswear, cheap fake products are everywhere. It has become socially acceptable to buy fake Gucci bags and illegal copies of films. If parents are doing this, their children will follow.
So perhaps it’s not surprising that around the world more pupils than ever are caught cheating during exams. In one case missing exam papers were put up for sale on the Internet. In another, widespread cheating took place by pupils using their mobile phones to receive tested answers. They blame the pressure put on them to do well in exams. It doesn’t help that their role models are also cheats. Surely we can’t complain when we’re setting such a bad example.
