16.When an NBA player is young he thinks he can win the championship by himself.When he becomes old and has been through many battles,he learns an important lesson:There is no"I"in"team".
There is no better example of the value of teamwork than the Boston Celtics.Paul Pierce,Ray Allen and Kevin Garnett were all superstars on three different teams.Yet,none of them had any titles.Then,they decided to sacrifice money and individual statistics to play together.Garnet and Allen joined Pierce on the Celtics and changed the NBA in the process.
Garnett and Allen are two of the most intense players in the world.They treat every second of every practice like it is the NBA championship.If you want to play alongside them,you will have to do the same.So,the young guys on the Celtics started giving their full effort too.
Pierce had been the star of the Celtics for many years.He used to shoot the ball many times a game.But with the addition of Allen and Garnett he shot less and focused on defense.His selflessness showed the young players that doing what made the team better was the only thing that mattered.
When the Celtics were winning and the game was almost over,Garnett,Pierce and Allen would come out of the game.But they wouldn't just sit on the bench.Instead,they stood and cheered and screamed for their teammates.They gave their teammates support.
Now,the guys who don't play know they still affect the game by cheering so they cheer when Garnett,Allen and Pierce are playing.The Celtics have developed a strong relationship.They are more than just teammates,but brothers.
The result:the Boston Celtics won the 2008 NBA championship.
As a saying goes,"A successful team beats with one heart."If this is the case,the Celtics may have the biggest heart in the NBA.

分析 本文通過NBA聯(lián)盟中的凱爾特人隊獲得總冠軍的經(jīng)歷告訴我們團隊合作要遠遠重于個人英雄主義.當沃爾特?雷?阿倫和凱文•加內(nèi)特加入波士頓凱爾特人后,與原有當家球星全能小前鋒保羅•皮爾斯組成了"三大巨頭"陣容,但是在這里沒有超級巨星,只有無私奉獻,為了共同的夢想,他們團結一致、并肩作戰(zhàn)、體現(xiàn)了真正的團隊精神,終于贏得了NBA總冠軍,在本文中作者講述了他們的這種超強的團隊精神.
解答 24.C 邏輯推理題.文章第二段中說道,皮爾斯,加內(nèi)特,和雷阿倫他們在自己的隊伍中都是超級巨星,但是都沒有能夠獲得總冠軍.回來來到凱爾特人隊以后運用團隊合作,獲得了總冠軍.正是為了說明團隊精神是團隊中最重要的事情.故C正確.
25.C 細節(jié)理解題.解答本題可采用排除法.A、凱爾特人隊的年輕球員們付出了他們的全部努力去練習打籃球.B、皮爾斯改變自己--少投籃,多防守.D、比賽進行中,加內(nèi)特、皮爾斯和雷.阿倫為他們的隊友歡呼尖叫.這三個選項均能表現(xiàn)出團隊的合作精神.C、加內(nèi)特、皮爾斯和雷.阿倫打得很努力,直到比賽結束.這一選項凸顯的是個人主義,故答案選C.
26.D 段落大意題.根據(jù)第四段的最后一句話"His selflessness showed the young players that doing what made the team better was the only thing that mattered.他的無私向年輕球員表明做讓球隊更好的事情是唯一要緊的事情."可知:為了讓球隊變得更好,打籃球時,皮爾斯做了一些犧牲.故答案選D.
27.B 邏輯推理題.根據(jù)文章的主題段第一段When an NBA player is young he thinks he can win the championship by himself.It is only later when he has aged and been through many battles that he learns an important lesson:there is no"I"in"team".和第二段的第一句"There is no better example of the value of teamwork than the Boston Celtics."說明本文以凱爾特人隊為例子告訴我們團隊合作的重要性,故B正確.
