一、阅读理解
当所有人都以为结局已定时，樊振东用他的球拍改写了剧本。这不仅是一场技术的胜利，更是一次关于坚持与信念的完美诠释。他的故事照亮了无数在热爱中前行的人。
Table tennis is a popular sport, but it is not an easy one. It takes both physical strength and intelligence to play it well. Another important aspect is persistence(坚持不懈).
During the Paris Olympic Games, a table tennis match deeply moved me. The famous Chinese player Fan Zhendong faced Japan’s Tomokazu Harimoto. In the first two rounds, he was beaten by his opponent and lost. Could he overcome this challenging situation? I was worried. However, after a short break, Fan quickly pulled himself together.
In the following round, he made every effort to equalize the score(追平比分). The cheers from the audience grew louder with every point Fan won. Finally, he won the match. Without doubt, he attracted the whole audience’s attention.
Afterwards, he stepped to the top of the podium(领奖台) in the men’s singles. It was his strength and strategy that got him there. He was the champion. While the Chinese national anthem was played and the Chinese flag waved in the air, tears came to my eyes. I made a decision to make a difference in my
favorite field. Fan is like a beam of light illuminating the path of my life. I firmly believe that when I face challenges in the future, I can overcome them just like Fan.
In the interview, Fan said, “I cherished every point. I did my best to prove myself to the world, even though there were many difficulties along the way.” It shows the precious spirit of the Olympic Games.
