I still remember my first karate competition. Like other players, I was very excited about my event. I watched every player's techniques (技巧) so that I could carefully avoid their moves.Somehow I got into the semi-final. In the semi-final, I got injured. I still didn't give up and got into the final. After all, getting the gold medal was my dream.In the final competition, there were no supporters on my side, as I was a new face. Instead, the crowd was cheering for my opponent. I could hear only my opponent's name.I ignored the crowd's cheering. I kept one thing in mind: focus, wait and attack. I had confidence in myself, and I knew that no matter how strong my opponent was, I had to do my best and fight well.When the time was up, I was leading with a 3－0 score. One thing I learned from that event is that no matter how strong your opponent is, don't think you are weak or strong. Just give your best shot, and you will make your way to success.Win or lose, you will learn from every step you take.31.

During these 2,000 years lots of Mid-Autumn traditions have been thought up by Chinese people. All the celebrations show the happiness and excitement of people.The main celebrations during the Mid-Autumn Festival are appreciating the moon,eating moon cakes together and making Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival lanterns.

classmates,they had to get up early at seven every Saturday to prepare for their lessons.Grace had to attend the art lesson and Karen had to attend her ballet lesson.“How I wish I could do something different today,” said the twins with one voice.All at once,an idea came to Grace and Karen at the same time.“How would you like to be me for a day?” they asked each other.It seemed like a wonderful plan to them.After giving each other a description of their own friends,Grace put on Karen’s ballet dress while Karen put Grace’s brushes and paints into her bag.Then they left for their classes.When the art lesson started,Karen was lost.Unlike Grace,Karen was poor at drawing.When the art lesson finally ended,Karen didn’t dare to hand in her work.Meanwhile,Grace was struggling in the ballet class
