There is a big skating ground near our school. In winter, I often go skating there, and I enjoy the sport very much.
At first, I only went there to watch others skating. Some with good skills could skate wonderfully. I admired them from the bottom of my heart. But I couldn’t do it myself. I was only an onlooker. How I longed to skate myself!
I began to make up my mind to learn it. But as soon as I stepped on the ice, I stumbled over myself. At once, some people caught me, and I turned red over their laughter. I became so disappointed that I decided to give up. When I was about to leave, a girl came towards me with a smile and said, "Never mind, try again and you will succeed." I tried again and again, but still fell again and again. I put up with the wounds and pains and stood up and went on trying. At that moment, the girl came up again. She said loudly to me, "Ok, you are doing very well." Then she signed a "V" to me with her fingers. I was very obliged, and with her encouragement, I made great progress. Soon, I could skate quite well.
While doing anything, we often meet many kinds of setbacks, but we shouldn’t lose heart, we should overcome them with confidence instead of getting away from them. Then we will gain one victory after another.
在我们学校附近有一个很大的溜冰场。在冬天，我经常去滑冰，我很喜欢这项体育活动。
起初，我只是跑去看别人溜冰。有一些有良好的技巧的人。从我的心底，我很佩服他们。但是我自己做不到。我只是一个旁观者。我多么渴望自己会滑冰!
我决心学好它。但当我走在冰上，我绊了我自己。一次，有人抓住了我，在他们的笑声中我的脸都变红了。我很失望，我决定放弃。我正要离开时，一个女孩朝我走来，笑着说，“不要紧，再试一次，你会成功的。“我一次又一次的尝试，但仍连连下跌。我忍受着伤痛站起来继续尝试。在那一刻，那个女孩又上来了。她大声对我说，“好，你做得很好。”然后她签署了“V”我的手指。我非常感激，在她的鼓励下，我取得了很大的进步。很快，我能滑得很好。
无论在做什么事情，我们会遇到各种挫折，但我们不应该丧失信心，我们应该有信心克服它们而不是远离它们。然后，我们将陆续获得一场又一场胜利。
