Life is competitive-some kids can do something faster or better than other kids. This might not seem1, but all people are different and how well you can do something is different from others. This means there are "winner" and "losers", and lots of people are 22 winners2losers but in between. You can choose to be a good winner or an even better loser whether you are competing against others or yourself.
Being a "good" winner. No one likes a "show off". No one likes someone who takes all the3for the efforts of a team. No one likes people who put4down to make themselves look good. To be a good winner, you need to:
⒈ Be modest(谦虚的)
⒉ Thank those who helped you for their efforts.
⒊ Keep doing your best5your skills
Being an even better loser
Of course it's6to lose, especially if you are close to winning. Behaving badly or7, complaining (抱怨) and going on about things being "unfair" won't change the final result and will only make you look like a bad competitor. And no one likes bad competitors either.
To be an even better loser, you need to:
⒈ Behave politely, nicely and kindly.
⒉ 8the other team.
⒊ Keep any negative thoughts to yourself-9until you are away from the game.
It's OK to let out your negative thoughts to your best friend or parents later. And if you don't do very will in a game, try10to learn for the next one. Improving yourself makes you a winner too.

The moment that Jiang Mengnan received the award(奖) of Person Touching China for 2021, she said she most wanted to express her thanks to her parents. She was chosen on March 3,2022 to receive the award given on CCTV, which chooses 10 models nationwide every year who spread positive energy.
Born in 1992, Jiang's world has been silent since she was 6 months old, when medicine she was given completely hurt her hearing When she was a very young child, her parents began teaching her to read lips(嘴唇). They also taught her how to make sounds by putting her hands on their throats. It was very slow and hard, but her parents never gave up and Jiang leaned to speak.
When she was old enough, Jiang was accepted to a normal primary school, not a special school for the disabled. It was difficult at first. During lessons, teachers would often write on the blackboard with their backs to the students, so Jiang missed much what the teachers said. She had to copy down everything on the blackboard and study alone after class to keep up with her classmates.
Her strong willpower(意志力) made her a top student. In 201l, she achieved a very high score on the national college entrance exam and got into Jilin University. After graduation in 2015, she started a further degree at the same university. In 2018, she was accepted as PhD(学士学位) student at Tsinghua University's School of Life Sciences.
A new contact lens(隐形眼镜片) has been developed by scientists from America, Britain and China. It can check for illnesses at any time by examining tears. A new sensor(感应器) is used to achieve the purpose.
Scientists hope that the improvement could help to deal with sudden medical events. Dr. Zhao Yunlong said, "COVID-19 has had a great influence on the scientific world. And we are doing research to help people deal with similar events in the future."
When introducing the new contact lens, Dr. Guo Shiqi, a researcher at Harvard, said, "In the past, the sensor was put between the layers(层) of the lens. It didn't have direct contact with tears. But our new sensor is smaller and smarter. It can be fixed to a lens and keep direct contact with tears. What's more, it causes no discomfort to the eye."
The contact lens hasn't been put to the market, but researchers are quite sure that it will be welcomed. It is especially useful to the old and those who may experience sudden medical events.
As society develops, scientists are supposed to develop more products that provide care and convenience for people. It can show the health information on the mobile phone. Steve Sinclair, head of the company, said, "We have to build something that helps you when you need it and stays off when you don't need it."

run nine go for it mean walk fighting I big |
A month before my first marathon(马拉松), one of my ankles(脚踝) was hurt and this not running for two weeks, leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet, I decided to go ahead.
I remember back to my year in school. After my first P.E. class, the teacher told me that I was "not athletic(运动型的)". The idea that I was not athletic troubled me for years. When I started running at the age of 30, I realized running was a against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic.
The night before my marathon, I dreamed that I couldn't even find the finish line. I woke up, being helpless and nervous but ready to prove something to . Finally, my marathon began. Shortly after crossing the start line, my shoe lace(鞋带) became united. So I stopped to tie it Not the start I wanted! I was left behind others. At mile 3, I passed a sign: ", RUNNERS!" By mile 17, I became out of breath and the once-hurt-ankle hurt badly, but I still stayed, a bit and then ran again. As I came near to mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my fan. She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m. or questioned my cost on running.
I was one of the final to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the one that the person who came in first place had. I can now call myself a "marathon winner".
Dear Daddy,
How's everything going? It has been so many days since you went to Wuhan. Do you remember the day before you left? You looked worried. and I saw the luggage(行李) in your bedroom, I asked you, "Are you going to leave on business?" You smiled and put your hand on my head, saying, "I'm just tidying up some clothes."
Later that night, I learned about you and Mom had asked to be sent to Wuhan, and were waiting for a call. At that moment, I really hoped that neither of you would get the call. However, your phone still rang I almost cried out in fear as if I were going to Wuhan myself. The next morning, I got up very early. During the breakfast, you smiled and asked me if I would miss you, I pretended(假装) it was no big deal and said, "I can send you a message whenever I miss you."
You left even before the sun rose. I waved to you until I couldn't see you any more. And my eyes were filled with tears. I wrote down "Waiting for you to come back" in my notebook. I knew the people of Wuhan needed you more than I did.
At night, Mom sent me some photos from Wuhan. I found both of you in the photos at once, "Hey, this is my daddy!" I was proud of you!
Daddy, we miss you. I love you, forever and ever.
Yours,
Kathy
