After losing one of the games, the atmosphere (气氛) in our class was kind of unbearable (无法忍受的), just like big, black clouds hanging over the classroom. Some of us even cried. Then I began to question myself: How did we let this happen?The answer was clear enough. Our players always practiced playing volleyball. However, it seemed that we didnt do it the right way to beat the opponents (对手). So it meant that our practice time was wasted. Also, the girls were too nervous to calm down in the game. That was why we lost too many points in the second round. So we failed because we had the wrong methods (方法) and attitudes(态度). Life is full of unexpected (意想不到的) failures. We should face the fact and have self-examinations to find out why we failed. Sometimes, we are fighting with ourselves. Because of our hard work, we will win. And also because of our faults, we will lose.（1）Everyone enjoys being a winner. （2）After losing one of the games, my classmates felt upset about it. （3）The girls were too calm down in the game. （4）We lost the game because we didnt practice playing volleyball. （5）We lost many points in the third round. 10. （8分）阅读下列短文，然后从A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳答案。(C)Funny School Rules in the WorldEvery school has its rules.
