The girl should stop and help the other girl. Good sportsmanship is more important than winning! C. An athlete should think about honour and his/her fans if he/she is competing for his/her country. Cao Jing: Hi, Lily. Hi, Max. You saw the race yesterday, didn't you Max: Hello, Cao Jing. No, I didn't. What happened Cao Jing: Two girls were on the final lap. They had nearly finished the race and had only a hundred meters to go, when one of the girls fell and couldn't get up. Lily： Oh, my! So the other girl won, did she Cao Jing: No,that's what was so cool. She stopped and helped the other girl finish the race. Max: What Why did she do that Cao Jing: I think she thought it was the right thing to do. It's more important to help each other than to win. Lily: I don't agree. If someone falls during a race, that's too bad. It's just part of the race. Max: Exactly! If you've practised hard for the race, you should do your best to win. Cao Jing: I don't think so. Winning isn't always the most important thing. Lily: But that doesn't make any sense! What if an athlete is competing for her country She should think about the fans and the honour. Cao Jing: I see what you mean,but I still don't think that you're right. Helping others should always come first. The idea of good sportsmanship is that sports should be enjoyed for their own sake and that athletes should show respect for their fellow athlete, treating them in the same way they would want to be treated themselves.
