问题     Some people argue that athletes, while playing games, should adhere to the principle "Friendship first, competition second" , but others are against this view. They think that playing a game is fun only when you win. What is your opinion?
    Write a composition of about 200 words on the following topic:
                Playing a Game Is Fun Only When You Win?
选项
答案                 Playing a Game Is Fun Only When You Win?
    Some people argue that athletes, while playing games, should adhere to the principle "Friendship first, competition second", and that is the true sportsmanship. Should we give up competing for the sake of friendship?
    Personally, I disagree with this point of view. There is no denying that competitors should be friendly to each other. However," the primary concern of every player, after hard training for a year or many years, is to win the game. His/Her sole motivation, either during the training or in the race, is prompted by a looming hope and a prospective championship. Be it a chess game or a competition of weight-lifting or a race of a hundred-meter dash, the case is always true. If he/she wins the game, high rewards, flowers and honor will pile upon him/her. If he/she loses once or twice, he/she will become less courageous for the third time. In addition to that, several losses may beat him/her down, and his/her next battle, if he/she is daring to fight, will probably be a fiasco.
    So, in my mind, the fun or happiness of playing a game lies in the athlete’s ultimate achievement of the goal. We all know Napoleon’s famous saying: " He who doesn’t want to be a general isn’t a good soldier. " I agree that an unambitious athlete is not a real athlete.
