Joining Christine's basketball team was my latest effort to be like her. On the way to the gym,I'd made up my mind to give my best performance in that day's game.I made preparations with great enthusiasm.“Christine,here!”I tossed her a ball. But it was too high,she leapt for it,it slipped through her fingers and crashed into the tape recorder that was used to play the national anthem before each game. I muttered apologies as I picked up the broken pieces of the recorder. Coach looked at the mess and asked,“How are we going to play the song now?”Christine suggested,“Let Katie sing it! She's always singing at home.” Coach asked.“Would you?”I found myself nodding. Coach announced the national anthem and everyone stood. Standing before a microphone,I looked up to the flag. The notes seemed to flow from deep inside me,and my voice was steady and clear. When I finished,the gym was silent Then it was filled with applause. As the game started. teammates patted my back and gave me the“thumbs up”sign. Laura Jamison said.“You should try out for the school musical!”I Nodded and said that I might. The next morning Hillary Barnes stopped me in the hallway and asked,“Are you the twin who sings?” “Yes,that's me,”I answered,grining (露齿笑)as I walked to class.
