It was a small school with a weak football program. It was a tradition for the school’s old team to play against the 4 team at the end of spring practice. The old team had no coach, and they didn’ t even practice to 5 the game. Being the coach of the new team, I was excited because I knew we were going to win, but to my disappointment we were defeated. Thinking hard about it, I came to 6 I had to change my attitude about their ability and potential. I started doing anything I could to help them build a little pride. Most importantly, I began to treat them like 7 . That summer, when the other teams enjoyed their 8 , we met every day and 9 passing and kicking the football. After six months we won our first game and our second, and continued to 10 . Finally, we faced the number one team in the state. I felt that it didn’t 11 even if we lost the game. But that wasn’t what happened. My boys beat the best team in Georgia, giving me the greatest 12 of my life! From the experience I learnt a lot about how the attitude of the leader can 13 the members of a team. Instead of seeing my boys as losers, I pushed and 14 them.

With each move, to make friends, I explored new 1 , like drawing, and joined various clubs and groups, just without a ball. That 2 when our family moved to Ankara, Turkey. If I wanted a 3 life in the new community, I’d have to play tennis. Having bought a tennis skirt and a racket (球拍), I appeared at my 4 . With an encouraging coach, I 5 to show up, with a racket in hand and a smile on my face. I 6 criticism and learned to laugh at my mistakes. Despite my new can-do 7 , my swings were often met with nothing but air. Laughing and learning, I kept swinging and trying, 8 the progress I was making. After a few months of lessons, the practice provided me with the 9 to play Cardio Tennis before a sold-out audience. Grasping my racket, I made my way to the court. As they 10 the rules of the game to me, I worriedly declared, “I’m an amateur! Though I’m 11 to be here, I apologize in advance!” The hours we spent together were full of laughter, 12 and friendship. They praised my forehand and sympathized when I 13 a return. I put myself out there, unashamedly 14 my rookie (新手) state.

What are my 1 limits? Our bodies, of course, set 2 for each of us. Even with better 3 , there will always be limits to how much weight one can 4 . Although physical limitations 5 for every individual, our inner strength frequently holds the key to 6 them. More importantly, it’s a person’s 7 that determines how far one can go. The reason why I had the 8 of pushing beyond my limits was a story about John Collins. Once, he was listening to a few friends argue about whether runners or swimmers had better fitness levels. He 9 the argument by turning it into an idea for a competition. Each competitor would swim 3.9 kilometers, 10 180 kilometers and then run 42 kilometers. The first one to finish would be given the title Ironman! I decided to give it a try. Preparing for the Ironman race started with 11 . I began eating five to seven times a day to give myself more 12 as I exercised. 13 activities such as swimming, cycling, and running took up a large part of each day.

Marks made full 4 of those opportunities and by the age of 15, she became the youngest surfer to ever 5 for the World Surf League (WSL) championship tour. After that, she continued to raise the bar for women’s surfing at a young age and was nearly 6 at every regional event she attended. However, in 2022, Marks said that something 7 . “I found myself not enjoying surfing as much. I put a lot of 8 on myself and I want to do well in anything I do. Sometimes it’s only natural that you get a little 9 .” She made the difficult decision to step away from the tour and 10 getting herself back on track. “ 11 on the sleepless nights, I think those are the moments that can 12 or break you. And I feel like I just came out on the other side stronger. During the 2023 WSL Championship Tour, Marks 13 within the top three spots in five competitions. Then, last September, came a moment Marks would never 14 .

If I 1 the first shot, I would take a second shot. If we 2 , we were out. It was the finals. I like playing basketball very much, though I’m not a(n) 3 athlete. I started playing basketball in the sixth grade. I practiced outside for hours and hours, days and days, and my 4 had become very good. In every game I played as hard as I could. I was 5 able to make the team in the eighth grade, and even worked my way up to being a starter. Although I could not run as fast or jump as high as my naturally athletic teammates, that never 6 me.

I 11 jumped up for the rebound (篮板球). Someone from the other team 12 it, though, and the game was over. We were out. My teammates gathered around me, but there was no blame or regret. We had given it our all, and that, in itself, was a 13 worth praise. Our coach approached, placing a reassuring hand on my shoulder. “You guys played your hearts out. Remember, it’s not about winning or losing; it’s about 14 you play the game.” I realized that while winning was a goal, it wasn’t the 15 measure of success.

He had 1 the record title for most pull-ups in 24 hours by a margin (差额) of 92 — proving years of 2 and mental work that left Truett in the best shape of his life. And then, less than one day after acquiring his title, across the world in Australia the police officer Gary Lloyd 3 Truett’s record by a margin of 500 pull-ups, 4 taking his crown. “I overcame a lot of doubt, pain and 5 just to have the record for a single day,” said Truett. Although he was proud of his 6 , he also described the event as an “ 7 roller coaster” — one that would ultimately inspire him to go to extraordinary lengths to retake his title. He decided to train for the record again. After months of strict work on his form, diet and mentality, Truett beat his 8 record by 1,901, and retook his record for most pull-ups in 24 hours by completing a (n) 9 10,001. And yes, it 10 — Truett’s hands and arms were shaking and red after, and it took days of 11 for the calluses (老茧) on his palms to heal. But as he said, “The pain of regret far 12 the pain of my hands.” Truett wants other people to 13 this lesson from his inspiring attempt. “ 14 showing up every day and giving your best effort will never be something you regret,” he said. “Stay the course — that’s the biggest lesson you can learn from me.

People 5 enthusiastically like it’s a football match. There are two parts to the contest. The first involves making 6 porridge, in which you’re only allowed three ingredients: water, oats (燕麦) and salt. Then, there’s a creative competition where you can make anything you like 7 it contains oats. You have to make them on a camping stove within 30 minutes. The 8 base their criteria on taste, texture (质地), colour and seasoning, but they don’t give 9 so it’s hard to know what they like and dislike. I didn’t get through in 2022 and 2023, but last year, I approached the process more 10 . I researched a lot — looking up different materials and expert tips — and 11 that oats achieve the best texture between 60°C and 92°C, so I used a thermometer to keep my porridge under 92°C． I also employed Himalayan pink rock salt, as it has a slight sweetness to it. At last, I 12 . Most people don’t think much of porridge, so being the world porridge-making champion is slightly 13 , but there’s more to it than people realise.
