In China, for example, an important event that I remember well was a city was locked down to control the spread of the Covid-19 virus. It happened on January 23, 2020, in Wuhan. I am now a middle school student, but I was a school pupil at that time. When I heard the news of this event on the smartphone, I was at home with my family. We were preparing something for Spring Festival and we were completely shocked! I didn’t believe at first, but then I turned on the TV. The news reporter was telling the truth about the event. Also, I saw some people crying because their family were in Wuhan. I was as nervous and scared as my family because of the event. The Spring Festival that year was different from before. It was worse than before, too. What’s more, people were worried and weren’t interested in playing during the traditional holiday. Although the Covid-19 virus was terrible and serious, many people were trying their best to help people in Wuhan. With everyone’s effort, the virus was beaten at the end of 2023. From this event, I was strongly inspired by the courage and unity of Chinese people. There are many national heroes during the event like Zhong Nanshan and Li Lanjuan. I hope that, one day, I could be a person like them. I hope to do my part when in times of difficulty. 同伴习作赏析 People often remember what they were doing when they heard the news of important events in history. An important event that I remember well was that the great man Yuan Longping passed away in Changsha on May 22, 2021. When I got the news, I was reading books while my parents were busy making lunch in the kitchen. We were completely shocked and thought it was unbelievable. Later, we saw the report on the Internet. All of us were very sad and finished the rest of our lunch in silence. On hearing the news, hundreds of people rushed to the hospital in Changsha to see him off and shouted out words such as “Grandpa Yuan, have a good journey”. As is widely known to all, Grandpa Yuan spent his whole life doing research on rice. He is such a great hero that his name will be remembered in the hearts of people around the world forever. As a teenager, I will carry on his spirit and spare no effort to make our country more prosperous. 同伴习作赏析 Looking back at the past years, I will never forget the most unforgettable day in my life. It was February 4,2022, on which day the Winter Olympic Games started in Beijing. At that time, I was watching games on TV with my friends when the theme song Thousands of Snowflakes began. It was like putting us into the gym of Olympic games. “Snowflakes open to the light, all around shining all the same...”, the song made the competitors full of energy so that they could try their best for the competitions. In addition, I was so proud of the competitors from China who had always practiced for ten hours every day. Also, when I watched them become champions, excitement welled up in my mind. The more honour they achieved, the prouder I felt for China. I would remember this event forever. 同伴习作赏析 An important event that I remember well was the 19th Asian Games in Hangzhou. It happened on April 6, 2023. This was an important event in the history of Zhejiang Province. When I heard the news of this event, I was doing my homework. My brother was playing with his toys. My mother told the news in surprise. “Wow!” My brother and I stopped doing anything. He jumped to show his excitement. I felt that my body was full of happiness. I felt something broke my heart at the same time. I was so proud of this event. People in Hangzhou did a good job. The 19th Asian Games brought people from and abroad China closer together. It allowed people from different countries and cultures to communicate and understand each other better. From this event, I realized that our country is becoming stronger and stronger. And anyway, China these days are developing very quickly. As a Chinese, I will try my best to get good grades and try to be a useful person. Our country is so great, so everyone should do their part. 同伴习作赏析 People often have a clear memory of what they were doing when they heard the news of important events in history. One such event that I remember very well is that Japan began releasing nuclear-contaminated water into the Pacific Ocean on August 24, 2023. This was the day I will never forget. I remember I was cleaning the living room. My parents were sitting on the sofa, watching TV. Suddenly, a news report broke the peace. The reporter said, “Japan started releasing nuclear contaminated water...” My parents’ expressions changed immediately. They looked very worried. I was totally shocked and couldn’t believe it. I stopped cleaning and stood there in silence. My parents started discussing how this would affect the environment and our future. We all felt very concerned. Nuclear-contaminated water would cause pollution to the sea in the future. Many animals might lose their lives. We hoped something could be done to stop this disaster. This event is unforgettable to me because it's not just about the environment of one country, but it has a huge impact on the whole world. It makes me realize that we need to pay more attention to global problems and take actions to protect our planet. I also hope that countries around the world can work together to solve this problem and prevent similar disasters from happening again. 同伴习作赏析 Self Check 1.
