【范文欣赏】
I still remember that unforgettable experience.
When I was in Grade 8, I had great difficulty with the 800-meter running test. I always fell far behind my classmates and almost wanted to give up. Then the story of the Chinese women’s volleyball team inspired me deeply. I decided to keep trying. Every morning I got up early to practice running on the playground. When I felt tired and wanted to stop, I told myself never to give up.
Finally, I passed the test successfully. I felt so happy and proud. I truly understand that as long as we keep trying, we can overcome any difficulty.

A Challenge during My Growth
Growing up is a journey full of challenges. I once met a big challenge and learned a lot from it.
Last term, I decided to take part in the school English speech contest. It was a huge challenge for me because I was always shy and afraid of speaking in front of crowds. I kept practising my speech for an hour every day after class. I also asked my English teacher for help with my pronunciation and speaking skills. When I felt nervous and wanted to give up, I told myself to hold on. Finally, I won the third prize in the contest.
From this experience, I learned that never giving up is the key to success. Nothing can stand in our way if we keep trying and believe in ourselves.

The Power of Keeping Going
On November 1, 2025, the Suchao League ended. The players’ spirit of never giving up deeply touched me and reminded me of my own experience.
I used to be very weak in physics, especially the mechanics part. I failed my physics exam last term and felt so upset that I almost gave up. But the players’ spirit encouraged me to keep going. I listened carefully in class and took detailed notes every day. After school, I did extra exercises and asked my classmates for help when I had problems. Gradually, my physics improved a lot and I got a good grade in the final exam.
This tells me that the power of keeping going can help us overcome any difficulty. We should hold on to our dreams and never give up easily.

A Work That Has Influenced Me Deeply
As the summer vacation of Grade 8 is coming, I want to share a work that has stayed in my heart. It is the story of Stephen Hawking, a great scientist I read in our English textbook.
Last month, I had great trouble with my math study. I couldn’t work out difficult function problems and wanted to give up. At that time, Hawking’s story lit up my way. Although he suffered from a serious illness and lost the ability to move, he never stopped his scientific research. His courage and strong will touched my heart deeply. I decided to keep working hard. I spent half an hour every day practicing math problems and asked my teacher for advice. Little by little, I made progress.
From him, I learned that we should never give up when facing difficulties. This spirit has become a part of my growth and always pushes me forward.

The news about the Chinese U12 football team winning the international competition really inspires me a lot. Meng Xinyi’s story perfectly shows the spirit of never giving up.
I once had a similar experience when learning to ride a bike. I fell down many times and hurt my knees. I felt so painful that I wanted to stop and never ride again. But when I thought of Meng Xinyi keeping practising football for six years without complaint, I decided to keep trying. I practised every weekend and finally learned to ride a bike well.
From now on, I will keep this spirit in my study and life. Whenever I face challenges, I will fight all out and never give up easily. I believe I can achieve more as long as I hold on.

Never Give Up
Have you ever faced a difficulty and wanted to give up? I have, and I learned that persistence makes all the difference.
When I was in Grade 7, I was not good at running. The 1000-meter test was a big challenge for me. I always ran out of breath halfway and fell far behind others. I decided to keep training every morning. I started with slow running and gradually increased the distance. Although I felt tired and wanted to give up many times, I kept encouraging myself to move on. Finally, I passed the test with a good grade and even became one of the fastest runners in my class.
I feel so proud of myself. Dear classmates, let’s keep trying when we meet difficulties in study and life. If we never give up, we will achieve our goals sooner or later.

Dear Mike:
Today, I’m glad to introduce my role model to you.
He is my PE teacher, Mr. Wang. He is tall and outgoing, and he always has a big smile on his face. When he was young, he hurt his leg badly in a basketball match. The doctor said he might not run fast anymore and could hardly go back to the court. But he never gave up. He kept doing recovery training every day for nearly a year. Finally, he got back to the playground and even won several matches later.
From him, I learned the spirit of never giving up. He also tells me to be responsible and kind to others. He is truly a great role model in my life and I want to be a person like him.
Yours,

Youth Is a Time for Fighting
As young people, we should never give up and keep fighting just like Nezha.
In my opinion, young people should be brave and strong-minded. We should not fear any difficulties on the way to our dreams. I still remember I fought hard to improve my spoken English. I was poor at it at first and was too shy to speak in class. But I didn’t give up. I kept reading English aloud for 40 minutes every morning and practised with my classmates after class. I also joined the school English corner to talk with others. Finally, I made great progress and even won a prize in the school English speech contest.
Fighting means not giving up when facing challenges. It helps us grow and make our dreams come true. Youth is only once, so we should fight for our dreams without hesitation.

【例文】
The spirit of never giving up easily is very important for us middle school students. It helps us build up our will and get through all kinds of difficult times in study and life.
I have such an experience myself. Last year, I joined the school climbing club. We climbed a mountain near our city. I was out of breath and my legs hurt badly halfway. I wanted to give up and go back. But I saw other classmates keep moving, so I encouraged myself to keep going. Step by step, I finally got to the top of the hill. The beautiful view at the top made me forget all the tiredness.
I believe the spirit of never giving up is necessary in our study and life. Whenever we meet difficulties, we should keep going instead of giving up easily. Only in this way can we achieve more and grow into better persons.
