I used to hate being called upon in class mainly because I didn’t like attention drawn to myself. And    otherwise assigned a seat by the teacher, I always    to sit at the back of the classroom.
All this    after I joined a sports team. It began when a teacher suggested I try out for the basketball team. At first I thought it was a crazy    because I didn’t have a good sense of balance, nor did I have the    to keep pace with the others on the team and they would tease me. But for the teacher who kept insisting on my “    for it”, I wouldn’t have decided to give it a try.
Getting up the courage to go to the tryouts was only the         of it! When I first started    the practice sessions, I didn’t even know the rules of the game, much    what I was doing. Sometimes I’d get    and take a shot at the wrong direction—which made me feel really stupid.     , I wasn’t the only one “new” at the game, so I decided to    on learning the game, do my best at each practice session, and not to be too hard on myself for the things I didn’t    “just yet”.
I practiced and practiced. Soon I knew the    and the “moves”. Being part of a team was fun and motivating. Very soon the competitive    in me was winning over my lack of confidence. With time, I learned how to play and made friends in the    --friends who respected my efforts to work hard and be a team player. I never had so much fun!
With my          self-confidence comes more praise from teachers and classmates. I have gone from “           “in the back of the classroom and not wanting to call attention to myself,    raising my hand—even when I sometimes wasn’t 100 percent    I had the right answer. Now I have more self-confidence in myself.

Detective Chan liked to teach Americans some Chinese wisdom by quoting(引用) Confucius(孔子). “Long time no see” was his trademark. Soon after Charlie Chan, “Long time no see” became a popular phrase in the real world thanks to the popularity of these movies.
