A long time ago, I had a plan, that is, to walk the entire Wanyun Road (from Wanzhou District, Chongqing to Yunyang County, Chongqing) to see if I can persist in walking to the end and how long can I walk? But it has never been possible due to various reasons. On May 11th (Friday), it rained heavily and the temperature dropped suddenly. According to the weather forecast, it would be sunny and partly cloudy on Saturday, which was very suitable for outdoor sports. So I decided to put the plan into reality-hiking Wanyun Road.
I weigh nearly 160 pounds and am less than 170 centimeters tall. It is difficult to hike long distances. But I believe in myself, and so does my wife. In the evening, I prepared the supplies for the journey, put them in my backpack, which weighed about ten kilograms, and went to bed early.
I got up at 6 a.m. on May 12th, completed all the preparatory work as quickly as possible, and took a taxi to the starting point. Of course, the location was chosen by myself, which is the intersection of the old and new Wankai Road. -Tangfang Gas Station (not far from Zhoujiaba). My solo hiking trip officially started at seven o'clock. It was very easy at first. It took 1 hour and 40 minutes to reach the Xiongjia fork in the road. But as time went by, physical and mental changes began to occur, and the speed slowed down. At 11:07 I walked to the junction of Yunyang, which is still 25 kilometers away from the county seat, and at this time my physical strength was obviously not as good as before, so I really wanted to retreat, thinking that I had reached Yunyang and could retreat. What a coincidence. At this moment, a motorcycle passed by me and said loudly to me: "Hiking, rise up!" It's true, everyone cheered me on, but I didn't have any confidence myself. So I picked myself up and moved on. At 1 o'clock in the afternoon, I arrived at Bayang Town in Yunyang. At this time, my legs were a little unable to move. I called a friend and asked a friend. It was said that I was halfway to the county seat. Oh my god...continue...retreat...I hesitated, and even more What's difficult is that continuing forward will be a long uphill climb, and the sun is shining brightly at this time. Somehow I suddenly thought of CCTV's "My Long March" event. Really, I'm not talking big words. At this time, I really thought of the team members who had to walk 50 kilometers every day and worked harder than me. No matter what, it turns out that mental motivation can really burst out with such great energy, so I mustered up the energy to continue and continue. It was 3:30 in the afternoon when I arrived at Lianhua Township. At this time, I was exhausted. My left foot hurt very much. I wanted to give up the rest of the journey, but in the blink of an eye, I thought, everything was gone. What was there to be afraid of? As long as I took one step. , I am one step closer to the county seat. I bought a bottle of cold beer at a canteen to refuel and move on. I don't know how I walked through the last few kilometers, and the pain followed me all the way. At 6 o'clock in the afternoon, I finally crossed the Shuangjiang Bridge and arrived at my destination, Yunyang New County. It takes 11 hours, including a 2-hour break.
My hiking trip to Wanyun Road is nothing in the eyes of friends who have participated in outdoor activities for a long time, but for someone like me, who is a bit in shape and doesn’t exercise enough, , is very challenging. I can't use too many words to describe my psychological changes on the road. But I overcame the hot weather, physical exhaustion, and loneliness... I measured the distance between cities with my footsteps. I used perseverance to overcome my impetuousness and crossed the mental journey of defeating myself.
After starting from the starting point, 11 hours later, when we reached the end point, we no longer had the original feeling. There is no external pressure, and I rely on the support of my own perseverance and perseverance.
The difference between ideal and reality may be like an apple. When it is on the tree, it is ideal, but when it is in your mouth, it is reality... Before every hike, I will draw an ideal in my mind. The road, and every time, after persistent personal experience, I appreciate its ups and downs, hardships and joys, gains and pride! What you conquer is the distance, what you feel is transcendence, and what you gain is confidence. Maybe some people do it to relax and exercise themselves and don't want to hurt themselves, but I think they are looking for their natural self. Hiking is measured with your feet, it may be 15 kilometers, 20 kilometers, 30 kilometers, 50 kilometers... everyone may have different strides and different speeds, but as long as you persist, the results should be the same. In fact, when people are hiking, they don’t care too much about the length. What they care about is the mood of the hike. No matter how long the road is, they are all measuring it carefully: measuring their attitude towards life, measuring their courage and strength, measuring their true feelings and friendships, and measuring their hopes and dreams...< /p>
Postscript: This hike took place on May 12, 2007. I wonder if it was a coincidence? , a year later on "512", the Wenchuan Earthquake occurred; after another year of Youmeng, on "512" in 2009, another "big earthquake" happened to me. Influenced by hiking in Yunyang, I continued to exercise The results have been obvious. My weight has dropped to less than 140 pounds. My previous standard figure has returned to me. I have regained my confidence and deeply understand the power of persistence. Exercise starts now, my friend, what are you waiting for?

My favorite Chinese class
In the examination room, when I saw the essay title, my thoughts returned to that section The Chinese language class that I remember deeply——
As soon as the bell rang, the classroom became noisy.
The students nervously memorized "I Love This Land" they learned yesterday. I looked nervously at the door while memorizing, praying that the teacher would come later.
At this time, the Chinese teacher stepped into the classroom, and I was extremely nervous: "It's over, I have forgotten everything I memorized this morning... It will be terrible if I ask questions later..."
< p> The teacher cleared his throat, and everyone’s reciting stopped. Sure enough, the teacher said: "Let's check the text recitation." His sharp eyes mixed with a little encouragement scanned the whole class. The classroom was silent, even quieter than during self-study. I glanced around secretly. Everyone's heads almost dropped to the table, looking at books nervously. The teacher suddenly said again: "Today I will recite, and the students will ask me questions."Our heads were raised in an instant, and our eyes were all turned to the teacher, Monk Du Zhanger——Touch No idea. I cast a questioning look at my colleague, and she whispered: "What kind of medicine are you selling in the teacher's gourd?"
The teacher continued: "Recitation has always been a difficulty for the students. There was a question during morning reading today My classmates asked me if the teacher always asked the students to recite, could I recite it? I suddenly realized that in order for the students to recite it, the teacher must first set an example, so I decided to recite this lesson. "< /p>
We suddenly became excited, looked at the textbook carefully, and checked whether there were any mistakes in the teacher's recitation.
"If I were a bird/I should also sing with a hoarse throat..." The teacher's charming voice echoed in the classroom, and we were brought into a new world of poetry. In this world, there is the poet's deep love for the motherland, the hatred for the invaders, the deep love for the motherland that was ravaged by Japan, and the enthusiasm to devote oneself to the country...
The teacher has finished reciting, We were all still immersed in the emotional recitation. Later, thunderous applause broke out in the classroom. A pleasant smile bloomed on the teacher's face. At this time, outside, the wind rustled and the birds chirped.
This is my favorite Chinese class.
Comment
The beginning is natural. The memories of your favorite Chinese class are introduced from real situations, and the flashbacks are natural. The ending "This is my favorite Chinese class" echoes the beginning and points to the topic.
The description is vivid. The penultimate paragraph's interpretation of the artistic conception of the poem is comprehensive and profound, hinting at the reason for "my favorite". In addition, the sentence "His sharp eyes mixed with a little encouragement scanned the whole class" vividly describes the characteristics of the teacher's eyes and the language expression is superb.
Scenery contrast.
The description of the scenery in the penultimate paragraph, "The wind is rustling and the birds are chirping", perfectly highlights the joy of the students
