“Bill, you never   2 !” Joe said admiringly.

     “Unless I’m in a real game,” Bill complained. “Then I miss all the time.”

“Maybe you just need to   4  more,” Joe suggested.

     “But I practice all the time with you!” Bill objected. He shook his head. “I just can’t play well when people are  5   me.”
      “You play well when I’m watching,” Joe pointed out.
      “That’s because I’ve known you since we were five years old,” Bill said with a smile. “I’m just not  6  playing when other people are around.”

Joe nodded and understood, but he also had an idea.
     The next day Joe and Bill met in the school yard again to practice. After a few minutes, Joe  7  himself.
     “Practice without me,” Joe said to his friend. “I’ll be back in a minute.”

     Joe reminded the group to stay  9  as they all went toward the school’s basketball court. As Joe had hoped, Bill was still practicing basketball. He made five        10  in a row without noticing the silent people standing behind him.

A Report from People’s Daily
"Chinese style of crossing the road" is a ridicule(調(diào)侃)used by the net friend. It describes a way of some Chinese walking across the road, namely "enough of a person can go（湊夠一撮人就走）, not red light”. Just look at other people and do not see the light. It is generally believed that as long as we cross the road together, no car dares to hit us. Here is one of the excuses given by a pedestrian (行人).
Reporter：You know, you can’t run a red light, can you?
Pedestrian：No, I can’t.
Reporter：But why did you do that just now?
Pedestrian：I am in a hurry. I’ll be late for work.

Everyone knows rules are made for people to follow, not to break.
