JIMMY'S BLOG -SPORT AND ME
When I(1) have been / was / am a kid, I wanted
to become a professional basketball player. It's
been my favourite sport (2) for/ from / since early
childhood. I wanted to be like LeBron James - (3) so/
such / how strong, fast and tall. I (4) used to practise /
practise / was going to practise every day. I didn't
(5) afford / shop / spend my pocket money on
anything, just to be able to buy basketball shoes and
the (6) strips / costumes / clubs that LeBron James
wore. Unfortunately, I'm not (7) too tall / tall enough/
so tall to play basketball professionally. But even though
I'm (8) short/ shorter / shortest than many other boys
my age, I am really, really fast. Two years ago, my PE
teacher suggested that I (9) will / should / can try table
tennis. It turned out that I'm really good at it. I still watch
a lot of basketball, but I love playing table tennis, too.
I've already (10) beaten / passed / won quite a lot of
tournaments! Does anyone have a similar story to tell?
