Do you like playing soccer? If you do, you may want to join the school soccer team. Read on and see how to join the school soccer team.
The first step is to know the information about the team. You can find more information by asking these questions. How many students are there in the soccer team? How many new players do they need? How often do they play soccer?

Maybe you are an average (一般的) student. You probably think you will never be a top student (尖子生). However, anyone can become a better student if he or she does his or her best. Here are some tips (技巧) to help you.
Plan your time carefully. You should plan your time for such things as eating, sleeping and dressing. Then make a good, regular time for studying, but don't forget to set enough time for entertainment (娱乐).
Keep your study quiet and clean. The study should have a desk, a chair and some study materials (资料), but no games, no radio and no television! When you sit down to study, you can put your heart into it. Make good use of your time.
Listen to everything that the teacher says. Listening carefully in class means less work later. Taking notes will help you remember what the teacher says.
After you get home from school, go over your notes. Review the important points. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss next day, read the materials. It will help you study better.
Develop a good attitude (态度) to tests. The purpose (目的) of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject. It helps you know what you are not good at. The world will still go on even if (即使) you fail (不及格) in a test, so don't be too worried.
If the dream is big enough. A school was across from my home and I often saw a girl student playing basketball. She practiced over and over again, sometimes until it got dark. I asked her why she practiced so hard. She said, "I like basketball. I'm going to play for a top basketball team. I want to be the best."
One day, I saw the girl sitting there, looking upset. I asked what was wrong. "Oh, nothing," she answered. "I'm just too short. "The coach told her that she was too short to play for a top team, so she should stop dreaming about it. But later she told me that her father said the coach was wrong. He just did not understand the power(力量)of a dream. Her dad told her that nothing could stop her if her dream was big enough.
The next year, as the girl and her team went to the Northern California Championship game, she was seen by a college recruiter(招生人员). She won the scholarship(奖学金)to study in a college and she could play for a famous women's basketball team! Her dream came true!

The man looked tired this evening. After supper he went to bed while his family (watch) TV. Mrs Beckman didn't turn off the television until the interesting TV play was over. She came into their bedroom in the dark at half past ten. As soon as she lay down, she heard a great noise under the bed. She (understand)a mouse came in again. She jumped off and had to (turn)on the light and try to beat it with a stick. She made some noise and it made her husband (wake) up.
"You have never worn glasses when you were sleeping before," the woman said in surprise. "But why are you (wear) them this time?"
"Well, dear," said the man. "I (have) a lot of dreams last night. I saw my parents, but I couldn't see them clearly. So I have to do so!"
