Football and Me

As is known， football as a sport is getting more and more popular， and it is loved by people around the world， tall and short， fat and thin， old and young.

　　If you ask me what I think of football， I can tell you： I love nothing more than football.

　　To tell you the truth， I have been a football fan for more than five years though I am only 15 years old. I did not understand why so many football fans were madly [mad] （1） about football until I became a football fan [one of them myself] （2） .

　　Recently I watched World Cup （世界盃）。 Many football stars displayed their skills to the full. I admired for [admired] （3） their wonderful skills. It is obvious that it's [it was] （4） a high level World Cup. In the end， Brazil team got the gold medal， which I think it deserved （應得到）。

　　In this World Cup， the best football star， in my opinion，was Christman although the winner was not the Germany team. That's why I have given myself an English name——Aaron Christman.

　　I not only watch football matches but also play football. I often spend my spare time playing football with other. I hear of [hear] （5） that a football tournament（錦標賽） will be held in my school pretty soon. If so， I will take an active part in it so that our class team will get the championship.

　　Oh， football， I'll love you for ever.

　　評 語

　　有人歎息道：中國足球真像一場難圓的夢。但令人訢慰的是，現在已有越來越多的人（包括衆多的中學生）開始關心、熱愛足球。本文表現的就是這樣一個中學生球迷的心聲。從語言角度講，文章寫得較爲流暢，短語、從句使用也較貼切。文章中某些語言上的不足之処點評脩改如下：

　　（1）這裡應該用形容詞mad.

　　（2）改後避免重複，加上myself使表達更爲有力。

　　（3）這裡admire應該是及物動詞。

　　（4）原文時態用錯了。

　　（5）hear of後接名詞，如：Have you ever heard of such a thing？但後接that從句時，無需用介詞of.
