nobody denies that competitions with prizes can bring people's initiative into full play. encouraged by a strong desire to win a prize, one will go all out to seek his greatest success.

　　consequently, the best achievements will be obtained in a game with awards. however, the prompting of a prize does not always lead to desirable results. for example, a competitor who cannot overcome the temptation of a prize is likely to take a stimulant .and the hopeless competitor sees nothing but the prize, which might cause improper behavior.

　　i my opinion, the remedy lies in moral education of competitors. this will help them to understand the slogan: "friendship--first, and competition--second. "then, prices will play a better part in any contest. generally speaking, i believe that prizes are a good thing.
