Learning from Discoveries
从发现中学习
When I was in junior high school, I was not good at sports because I was overweight. I was often laughed at by other students in my PE class. Gradually, I came to believe that I did not have the talent for sports.
我上初中的时候不擅长运动，因为我有些胖。在体育课上我总是被别的同学嘲笑。渐渐地我相信自己没有运动天赋。
One day, I was playing table tennis with a classmate in my PE class. My teacher said I was playing well and asked me to show the other students how to play. I was very happy because it was the first time I had ever been praised by my PE teacher. From then on, I made up my mind to practise table tennis every day. After a lot of practice, I became the best table tennis player in my class. I started to love sports and joined others in doing all kinds of sports: running, swimming, football, basketball, etc. One year later, I not only did well in my PE class but also lost 10 kg and became the star of my class at the school sports games.
有一天，我在和同学打乒乓球的时候，我的老师说我打得很好让我给其他同学作示范，我很高兴因为这是我第一次受到体育老师的表扬。从那以后，我下定决心每天练习乒乓球。经过大量练习以后我成为了班里面乒乓球打得最好的人。我开始喜欢上运动了，也参与其他的运动：跑步、游泳、足球、篮球等等。一年以后，我不仅体育很好而且体重减少了20斤，在学校体育比赛中我成为了班里的运动之星。
The experience of going from failure to success has taught me that everyone can be successful if they work hard.
从失败到成功的经验让我认识到，只要努力每个人都能成功。
