我是一个小学生，今年十二岁
我非常喜欢篮球
我每天都会打一两个小时
不管天气怎么样，我们都要打
我的朋友都比我高，但我觉得我打得比他们好
我打篮球已经打了三四年
感觉我打得越来越好
我最大的希望是可以有更多的时间打
但我妈妈很不喜欢我打篮球
她担心我打篮球太多，没时间好好学习
她觉得我下课以后应该学习三四个小时
我打篮球的时候她经常打电话叫我回家做作业
如果继续打她会非常生气
我也经常在电视上看篮球
周末会有很多比赛
我最喜欢看NBA
我的朋友也都看
星期一我们都会聊周末的比赛
但我妈妈也很不喜欢我看电视
她觉得我周末也要学习
因为这个我们经常吵架
我最喜欢的球队是湖人
我从小一直都喜欢这个球队
不管我有多少作业要做，我都会看湖人的比赛
我希望有一天我也可以在NBA打篮球

I am a primary school student, 12 years old
I really like basketball
I play for one or two hours every day
Regardless of the weather, we still will play
My friends are all taller than me, but I think I play better than they do
I have been playing basketball for three or four years
I feel like I'm playing better and better
My biggest wish is that I could have more time to play
However, my mother doesn't like me playing basketball
She worries that I play basketball too much and I don't have enough time to study properly
She thinks that after school I should study for three or four hours
When I'm playing basketball she often phones me and calls for me to go home and do my homework
If I keep playing she will be very angry
I also often watch basketball on TV
There are many matches at the weekend
I most like to watch the NBA
All my friends watch it too
On Monday we always discuss the weekend's matches
But my mother doesn’t like me watching TV either
She thinks I need to study on the weekend as well
Because of this we often argue
My favourite team is the Lakers
I've liked this team since I was young
No matter how much homework I have to do, I always watch the Lakers' game
I hope that one day I can also play basketball in the NBA
