Words to live by

A Simon is writing about a famous saying about not giving up and how it inspires him. Read his article and learn to write about a saying that inspires you.
One more try
Clearly state when the saying is useful.
Make a smooth transition from the introduction to the main story.
For me, one inspiring saying is: “Our greatest weakness lies in giving up. The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.” I often think of it when I face difficulties in my everyday life.

Once, this saying helped me when I was learning to swim.
My friends often went to the pool and had fun. I wanted
to join them, but I couldn’t swim. I was scared of the water and didn’t like putting my face in it.
Use time expressions to organize the story step by step.
I asked my mum to teach me to swim. At first, we spent time getting used to the water. We stood in the shallow end of the pool until I felt comfortable. Next, my mum told me to float on the water. She put her hands under me, but I was very scared. I wanted to give up, but then I thought of the saying. “Just try one more time before I go home,” I told myself.
The next day, we went back to the pool. We did the same thing as before. Floating on the water was still scary for me, but my mum counted to five before she let me get out.
Every day for a week, my mum and I went to the pool. Each time I floated on the water, my mum counted to a bigger number. By the end of the week, I didn’t want to get out of the pool. I was ready to carry on with my swimming lessons. Later, I finally learnt to swim.
Connect the story back to the saying.
This experience taught me the true meaning of the saying, and now I believe that trying again and again will lead to success eventually. I will always remember my favourite saying whenever life challenges me.
◆ Structure of the article ◆
Introduction: Introduce the saying.

B Think about a saying about not giving up. What is it? How does it inspire you? Write an article about it. You can use one of the sayings below or find one yourself.
Sometimes courage is the little voice at the end of the day that says I’ll try again tomorrow.
Never let your head hang down. Never give up and sit down and grieve. Find another way.
The only one who can make you give up is yourself.

答案：# The one that beats you is only yourself
For me, the most inspiring saying is: "The only one who can make you give up is yourself." I always think of this sentence when I want to quit after meeting difficulties in my daily life.
Last term, this saying helped me a lot when I was training for our school's 1000-metre race.
I was not good at long running at all. Every time I finished running, I felt so tired that I could hardly breathe, and my legs ached for hours. I planned to give up the training, but then the saying came to my mind. I told myself I could not be the person that defeated myself.
At first, I slowed down my running pace, and ran 700 metres every day to build up my endurance. Next, I kept practicing after school every afternoon, even on cold windy days. Then I found I could run further and further without feeling exhausted. Day by day, my running speed improved little by little. By the day of the race, I got the third prize in the competition, which I never dared to imagine before.
This experience taught me the true meaning of the saying. As long as we keep trying, no one can make us give up. I will remember this saying forever, and it will always encourage me to move on when I meet new challenges later.
