To become a star athlete, you have to have an extremely competitive【C11】______and you have to be totally focused on the development of your own physical skills. These qualities【C12】______well make a great athlete,【C13】______they don’ t necessarily make a great person.
On top of this, our society reinforces these【C14】______by the system it has created to produce athletes a system characterized by【C15】______responsibility and enormous privilege.
