2. Translate the following

▇ Answers for reference:
A gold
medal is a tribute to the athletic talent,
determination and courage of an Olympic
champion. Then how do the athletes make
themselves fortunate enough to be so highly
honored?
The champions who have mounted the
winners’ stand can offer an answer based on their
own
experiences. First, in the course of
training, they visualize themselves as champions.
Once their
dreams of becoming champions take
shape, they will cling to them courageously.
What’s more,
top performers are driven to
bring out their best. They discipline themselves
and squeeze in
every possible minute to
practice every day. Despite their relentless
efforts, they may sometimes
fail to win or
narrowly miss a gold medal, yet they believe in
themselves and never lose heart.
They are
ready to take on the most psychologically and
technically challenging tasks or
competitions.
In reality, all champions have experienced lots of
hardships on their way to the vital
break of
their lifetime. So we won’t and can’t say that a
champion is lucky. After all, luck only
strikes those prepared to capitalize on it.
Theme-related Writing
1. Write an
essay about your favorite sports team. The
following hints may be of some help.
1) What
is your favorite sports team?
2) Why do you
like it so much?
3) Do you always support the
team?
▇ Sample essay 1:
My favorite Sport
Team: the Chinese Women’s Volleyball Team
In
quite a few sports, Chinese women athletes
outshine men athletes. As a girl, I always feel
proud of our women table tennis players,
badminton players, women divers and gymnasts. But
my
greatest enthusiasm always goes to the
Chinese Women’s Volleyball Team, who, though it
has
undergone some ups and downs, always
presents a positive, inspiring image to the
public.
I’ve never missed any major TV
coverage of the Chinese women’s team. I can’t help
getting
excited watching the girls shine in
court, with their amazing spikes and blocks, and
their
never-ceasing courage and faith in
winning the match. There are times when they lose
the game,
sometimes with embarrassing result
like 0:3; there are years when they suffer a lot
of injuries and
new players do not match up to
the veterans, yet, one must admit that the Chinese
girls have been
practising very hard all the
way.
Recent years have witnessed a difficult
period for the team as Russian, American, Cuban,
and
Brazilian teams have been rising in
ranking and winning championships, but I still
have faith in
our team and give them my
support. I wish them good luck in the coming
Olympics.

2. Write an
essay entitled “The Meaning of Winning a Prize”.
You may base your writing on
what you have
learnt from the two texts. The following hints may
be of some help.
1) What is a prize?
2)
What does a prize bring about?
3) What is the
fundamental meaning of wining prizes?
▇
Sample essay 2:
In today’s society,
competitions, contests and games are held
virtually every day and
everywhere. These
activities put the participants into two
categories: winners and losers. As
symbols of
public recognition, prizes are awarded to those
who mount the winners’ stand.
A prize brings
about fame, prestige and good fortune. Winners are
constantly in the spotlight
and attract
admiring attention. Their friends and colleagues
come to congratulate them and their
families
take pride in them. More often than not, prizes
simultaneously bring wealth to the
winners as
in the case of an Olympic gold medal or a Nobel
Prize. Therefore, winners harvest both
a good
reputation and material rewards.
However, this
is not the essential meaning of wining a prize.
Winners are worthy of respect,
admiration and
good fortune because they embody some outstanding
qualities that are worthy of a
prize:
perseverance, diligence and optimism. An athlete
undergoes years of training and takes
hundreds of highly demanding
challenges before he steps onto that podium; a
writer becomes
popular overnight after he has
spent years writing relentlessly in poverty and
anonymity. What’s
more, optimism in the face
of adversity also contributes a lot to their
success. They believe in
themselves and have
great passion for what they are engaged in. They
endeavor to do their best,
enjoying the
process of fighting well. Therefore, the
fundamental meaning of winning a prize does
not merely lie in the rewarding fame or
wealth, but in the process of presenting the best
part of
oneself.
