　　　 From the spectators’ point of view，last year’s basketball 37 for my high school team was nothing 38 of an embarrassment．And 39 0 and 20 is certainly nothing to be proud of，that season had a bigger impact on me than any other．As a team captain，I knew it probably wouldn’t be the 40 year，but did I ever think we would lose every game？Of course not．Since six of our top players had graduated，it was clear that we were a (n) 41 team who would struggle．The struggle began earlier than expected， 42 ，as our team center was suspended (禁賽) for the season，and two key members decided to 43 for some reason．At this point，dropping out probably passed through every player’s mind，but in the end，we all stuck if out， 44 to work still harder．

　　　 I am sure it is great to go through without losing and bringing home awards．But in all honesty，I 54 the fact that my team lost every game last year．It may not help me to become a better basketball player，but it already has made me a better leader，and 55 ．
