The Olympics seem distant (遥远的) to most people, but in fact, everyone has a chance to experience them in person.
A deliveryman (送货员) named Luan Yushuai got the chance. He became one of the 40,048 runners that were picked from around the world to join in the Mass Participation Marathon (大众马拉松) at the Paris Olympics.
Luan was 39 years old and had been delivering things for nine years. In 2021, Luan started preparing for the marathon after learning about the signup process. He needed to gather 100,000 points through activities like running, swimming, walking and biking by the end of the year.
After getting all points, Luan got picked. Since then, he trained for about two hours every day. He also combined (联合) his work with his training. He often carried heavy things like water and rice to build up his strength and tried to avoid using lifts. Just over a month before the Paris Olympics, Luan continued to train hard, running 300 to 400 kilometres each month. Luan's hard work paid off in the end.
For Luan, running and his job were both important and meaningful parts of his life. As he neared 40 years old, an age when many players stop, Luan felt he was starting a new part of his story. This experience at the Olympics not only gave him a onceinalifetime memory but also inspired him to keep pushing his limits.

The Power of Teamwork in Sports
Sports are a great way to learn about teamwork.In games like basketball, soccer, or relay races, working together as a team is essential for success.
Take basketball, for example.A basketball team has five players on the court.Each player has a different role: the point guard controls the ball and sets up plays, the shooting guard scores points, the small forward is versatile and can do many things, the power forward catches rebounds and defends, and the centre forward is tall and blocks shots.If each player only thinks about their own performance, the team will not do well.But if they pass the ball to each other, help defend, and work together, they have a better chance of winning.
In a relay race, teamwork is even more important.Each runner has to pass a baton to the next runner.If the pass is not smooth, the team might lose the race.So, the runners practice passing the baton again and again until they can do it perfectly.They also support each other, cheering each other on during the race.
Teamwork in sports teaches us to communicate with others, to trust our teammates, and to work towards a common goal.It also teaches us that winning is not everything. What's important is how we play the game and how we support each other.
So, next time you watch or play a sport, remember the power of teamwork.It's what makes a good team great.
