There lived a family of four. Every one of them was a soccer lover. While three

members of the family liked the Boxton Town team，the boy loved the Boxton Rover team. It was difficult being different from the rest of the family.

They watched the football match together as a family. When the match was between

Boxton Town and Boxton Rover，the boy would be in great trouble. He could neither cheer for his favorite team nor could he cry when the opposite team scored.

The boy found it too difficult to support his team. When his team scored，he celebrated it in the bathroom. He cheered even when the opposite team scored as he knew his family would be watching him.

He hid the posters (海報)of his favorite team in his bedroom. He hid the clothes of

Boxton Rover team behind those of Boxton Town team. The boy secretly liked his favorite

team.Even for his birthday，he was always given the wrong gifts.
