Our English
Teacher
Do you know our English
teacher?
Look!
There is a young man standing over
there.
He isn't
tall, and looks very thin.
Who is he?
He is our English teacher. His name is
Sun
Feng.
Our
teacher is strict not only with himself but also
with us. We all like him, because he is a
good teacher and often helps us with
our English.
My classmate
Wang Haiyan was not good at Eng-lish at first. He
often thought:
“
My
English
is
poor,
what
can
I
do?
”
Mr
Sun
knew
it
and
said
to
him:
“
Don't
be
disappointed,
keep
up
with
your
classmates!
I
believe,
you
can.
”
With
the help of our teacher, he decided to
catch up with his classmates. So
he
began
to
put
his
heart
into
English
and
did
better
in
English.
At
last,
he took part in the English contest and
got a prize.
Our English teacher works
hard and he is as busy as a bee. He often prepares
lessons and
studies until late at
night. In Grade three, we often have tests and
have more English homework.
Mr Sun
always goes over it carefully.
Mr Sun gets on well with us. He likes
singing very much. One day before classes began,
he
said to us:
“
Now, let me teach you an
English song.
”
We all like our English teacher. He is
not only teacher but also our good friend. Don't
you
think so?

Zheng leaps into
history
In the winter of 1953, a powerful jump
from a Chinese woman attracted world
attention.
Twenty-year-old
Chinese athlete Zheng Fengrong shattered the
women's high jump world
record with a
leap of 1.77 metres in a Beijing athletic meet on
November 17, 1957.
The new
record, the first women's world record for the
People's Republic of China, was one
centimetre higher than the old mark
held by American Mildred McDaniel .
The jump also made Zheng the first
Asian athlete to break a world track and field
record
since 1936.
The record jump, although by a tiny
margin, was described by the foreign media as
“
an
explosive
jump
”
because
it
generated
China's
first
athletic
world
record.
Dubbed
“
a
spring
swallow
(
燕子
)
awakening
(
唤醒了
)Chinese
sports,
”
Zheng sent a message to
the
world that
China was
Nolonger
the
“
sick man
of the
East.
”
Born in
the spring city of Jinan, Shandong Province,
Zheng, who stands at 1.70 metres, has a
good physique and a skillful scissor
----sharp jump which was seldom seen among top
jumpers in
the world.
She once leapt 1.78 metres, a national
record in 1963.
She claimed
a well-merited place in sporting history when her
achievement was listed in the
Guinness
Book of World Records
(
吉尼斯世界纪录
) .
Due
to her contribution (
贡献
) to
athletics, Zheng was awarded a series of
honours. She was named among the
nation's greatest athletes
(
运动员
) in
1984.
③
Rong is first world champion
When China was
hungry for their first world title to celebrate
the 10th anniversary of the
founding of
the People's Republic of China table tennis player
Rong Guotuan made their dream
come
true.
Rong
became New China's first world champion after he
won the men's singles title at the
25th
World Table Tennis Championships, in former West
Germany on April 5, 1959.
Before the championships, the team had
pinned their gold hopes on the men's team. But
their
dream of a world team title was
destroyed by the Hungarian team in the semifinal
match, losing
three games to
five.
After a chain of
(
一系列
) unexpected defeats to
Chinese favoured for the
title, Rong
carried the heavy hopes to make a breakthrough.
Rong's rival in the final was top
Hungarian paddler Ferenc Sido.
Rong was seen as an underdog for the
title as he had just lost to Sido in the team
contest.
Even the victory flowers were
being prepared for Sido.
But
much to the surprise of the 8000-member audience,
Rong won three straight sets with a
big
margin 21-12, 21-15, and 21-14 after losing the
first set 19-21. Until that very moment, Rong
realized the promise he made one year
ago, that was to win a world championship for his
motherland.
Two
years later at the 26th championship for his
motherland.
Two years later
at the 26th championships in Beijing,
Rong led the Chinese men to
win
the team title.
After becoming the
coach(
教练
)
of
the
Chinese
women's
team,
Rong
led
the
team
to the winners' podium at the 28th
championships(
锦标赛
)in 1965.
