7 . In many parts of the world, there are four seasons: spring, summer, fall and winter. In the U. S., there are only three: football, basketball and baseball. If you want to know what season it is, just have a look at what people are playing.
For many people in the U. S., sports are not just for fun. They’re almost a religion. Thousands of sports fans buy expensive tickets to watch their favourite teams and athletes play in person. Other fans watch the games at home. The most devoted sports buffs never miss a game. Many a wife becomes a “sports widow (寡妇)” during her husband’s favorite season.
America’s devotion to athletics has created a new class of wealthy people: professional athletes. Sports stars often receive million-dollar salaries. Some even make big money appearing in advertisements for soft drinks, shoes and even toiletries (化妆品).
Sports are an important part of Americans’ culture. Throughout their school life, Americans learn to play many sports. All students take physical education classes in school. Some try out for the school teams, while others join school sports leagues. Athletic events at universities attract scores of fans and benefit the whole community.

High-school sports is one of the biggest thing that happens in our town of Verden, population six hundred. And sports are important in our family. Both of our sons were high —school athletes. However, I was surprised when Lauren announced she was going out for the girls’ basketball team. But she has Down syndrome (唐氏综合症) .
My wife and I never told Lauren that she was different. We treated her like our other children. We didn’t want her to feel disabled or different.
“I’m gonna play basketball, Daddy.” Lauren ran to meet me when I returned from work. “That’s nice, honey,” I replied and patted her shoulder. I figured she meant outside—on the driveway. My wife Laura later told me “What Lauren’s trying to tell you is that she’s joining the girls’ high-school basketball team.” Just as my wife’s words stopped, I heard Lauren behind me. “I’m gonna be a Lady Tiger,” she shouted, throwing her arms in the air. I discussed Lauren’s announcement with my wife that evening. “Maybe she won’t make the team,” I offered. “Everybody makes the team, Johnny,” she whispered, “It’s Verden. There are only eleven girls, and not all of them want to play.”
However, I couldn’t help worrying about Lauren. Everything that could happen flashed through my mind. Lauren’s reactions were slow. What if she got injured during practice or trying to keep up with the other players? What if the other girls on the team failed to accept her? What if an insensitive audience made fun of her? Or what if Lauren’s feelings got hurt because she spent most of her time on the bench (替补席) ?
Just as my wife had said, Lauren did make the school basketball team. To relieve my anxiety, I decided to see her practice in person. The next afternoon, I parked in front of the school gymnasium. Entering the gym, I could see Lauren standing alone at the other end of the court, shooting free throws. Inside, Coach (教练) Forsythe stood on the other side of the gym. After every shot, Lauren joyfully shouted, “Woo hoo!” She didn’t seem to care if she made the basket or not.
