basketball. Chito practiced every day to improve his shooting
and dribbling skills, while Raul seldom practiced. He liked
playing computer games, rather than spending time to improve
his skills in playing basketball.
One day, their P.E. teacher announced that there would be
a tryout. Chito and Raul enlisted for the said tryout. Raul knew
that he would not likely pass because he did not practice as
often as Chito did.
