And sports do allow us to【C2】______acts that can legitimately(合理地;正当地)be described as【C3】______, thrilling, beautiful, even noble.

They learn very quickly that they will be accepted by the important figures in their lives—parents, coaches and peers as long as they are【C19】______as " winner". Unfortunately they become【C20】______and behave as if their athletic success will last forever.
