Everyone knows that sportsmen work out to strengthen(加强) their __46_. But research shows that strengthening the mind may be just as __47__. Careful study shows that the best sportsmen win __48__ because they think they can win.
Thinking positive(乐观的) thoughts seems to give possibility for __49__ in sports. People who say to themselves over and over, “I know I can do this,” often find they have the __50__ to win. On the other hand, people who think “I can’t win” often __51__.
