Star athletes like her often serve as models of courage and determination.

I think of the famous world Ping-pang champion Deng Yaping as my role model. I feel proud of her because she won four championships in the Olympic Games and earned fame for our country.

  19. Why do you think athletes should be role models? Sample Athletes should be role models because they have no choice. They don’t choose to be role models, they are chosen. They can only choose to be a good role model or a bad one. Another reason is that they should accept the responsibility of being a role model as well as all the glory and the money that comes with being a famous athlete.

  25. 句型应用 One of the reasons we get along so well, though, is that we both say what’s on our minds without worrying about what other people are going to think—which means we disagree from time to time.(Line 5) 译 文 The reason is that…原因是…… reason后面接表语从句时，多用that引导。

  26.
