It was a long day. David felt (happy) as he walked home slowly. He couldn't help thinking about his stupid mistake on the school soccer field. He missed scoring that goal. It made the school team (lose) in the game.
As soon as he arrived home, his mother found his sadness, for it (show) on his face. After (hear) the whole story, she told (he) that it was not necessary to be too hard on himself and winning or losing was only half the game. She asked David (communicate) with his teammates. She added that the most important thing was to support each other in a team. What his mother said made him think a lot.
The next day, David went to soccer practice courage instead of fear in his heart. He apologized to his teammates for his mistake. He said they should continue to work together as whole team. It was a relief that his (teammate) all agreed with him. They promised to encourage each other and work much (hard) the next time.
