This text is for questions 1 to 5.
My first sports event that I watch is a basketball match. I decided to watch it to support my school basketball team. When I was in the ninth grade, I attended a basketball game against one of our school's archrivals. Both teams were enjoying a winning season, and the game was expected to be extremely close. Tension was high that day. I remember sitting on the edge of the bleachers. In the final minute of the game, our team was down by one point, and we had ball possession. I really wanted my school to win for the rival team had been bragging on their greatness. I anxiously watched the clock as the second ticked away. The crowd began counting down at the ten second mark. I was growing more and more tense. Finally, just before the last shot was made, I prayed hard. When I was uttering the pray silently, the ball went in, and we won the game by one point. My mouth wide open, I became so excited. From then on, I really like watching basketball games.
