15、ea waves dashed against the rock. In this way, soil and sand came into being.3 Nothing lived on the naked soil. And then the wind and birds brought plant seeds, spiders and other little creatures there. Only plants could grow at first. Only they, in sunlight, could produce food from the minerals of
16、the soil, water and air. While many animals landed on the island, they could find no food. A spider spun its web in vain, because there were no insects for its web to catch.

20、portsmen and sportswomen kills the essence (真谛) of sportthe pursuit of personal excellence. Children kick a football around for fun. When they get older and play for local school teams, they become competitive but they still enjoy playing. The individual representing his country cannot afford to thi
21、nk about enjoying himself. He has to think only about winning. He is responsible for the entire nations hopes, dreams and reputation.2 A good example is the football Word Cup.
