         Being a youth is one thing, and being a good one is another. A good youth should have these qualities
    (品德): First of all, health. A healthy body is the best riches. Without it, nothing can be done well. If you
    are poor in health, you will have to take medicine day after day. You can even work, do sports and so on.
    Secondly, one must be of good quality. Always do something good for others. Help those in trouble and
    care about the people around you. If everyone did the same, what a wonderful world this would be! Thirdly,
    one must have the ability (能力) to work with others. Cooperation and communication (合作和交流) are two
    important keys to better human relations. Everyone needs friends because no one can live through life alone

    That is wrong. A good youth's work is not only fighting. A good youth will do the things his country asks him
    to do. I think a good youth of today should also have some training in art. If everyone can enjoy art and be able
    to make more of it for others, then people will live better and enjoy more.

    competition.

        Sometimes, however, one team appears so much stronger than the others that everyone agrees it will win.
    The stronger team is a shoo-in. there is no way that it can lose.
        The expression "shoo-in" comes from horse racing. It comes from the word "shoo". That is not the shoe
    we wear on our feet. It's another word, S-H-O-O. To shoo is an expression hundreds of years old that means
    to force an animal to move in a desired direction.
        Many years ago dishonest (不诚实) riders sometimes agreed secretly to control their horses so that one
    chosen horse would win the race. All but one of the riders would hold back their horses. The chosen rider
    would shoo his horse ahead of the others, and win the race.
         The other riders would secretly bet (打赌) large amounts of money that the chosen horse would win. The
    public (公众) soon learned about such races. They began to call the winner of such a race a "shoo-in".
         These days, people use shoo-into describe (描述) any athlete (运动员) or competitor that seems certain to
    win, even without cheating.

    C. that he won over 100 competitions before the 1984 Olympic Games

    C. a word used to describe a dishonest person
