大学英语四级作文高频短语(汇集20篇)

What factor decides everyone’s opportunity? Some people believe that opportunity is just a matter of coincidence; other people believe that opportunity is around us, it needs people to perceive. In my opinion, besides what mention above, opportunity also needs us to create.

什么因素决定了每个人的机遇?一些人认为机遇只是巧合的事情,另外一些人认为机遇就在我们周围,它需要人去发现。在我看来,除了以上提到的,机遇也需要创造。

One factor that plays an important role in determining our opportunities is coincidence. For example, some people born in a rich family, they enjoy great chances to be successful, because the fame and the reputation from the family provide them chances. Comparing to those people who born in a poor family, they don’t have such chances, it is hard for them to seize the chances, they need to work for it.

决定我们机遇的一个重要原因是偶然。比如,一些人出生在一个富裕的家庭,他们享受着成功的巨大机遇,因为家庭的名利给他们带来了机遇。和那些出生在贫困家庭的人相比,他们没有这样的机遇,对于他们来说很难抓住机遇,他们需要创造机遇。

The other factor that plays an important role in determining our opportunities are our positive attitude. Opportunity often exists all around us, it is waiting for those people who are brave to grasp it. A person who is positive will perceive the chance, he will not be defeated by fail, still holding the hope that chances comes any minute, so they will grasp the chance as soon as it comes.

决定我们机遇的另一个重要的因素是我们乐观的态度。机遇总是围绕着我们,它等待着那些勇敢的人去发现。一个乐观的人会察觉到机遇,他不会被失败打败,仍然抱着希望,相信机遇随时来,所以当机遇来的时候,他们会立刻抓住。

In conclusion, everyone has the chance to be successful; it contains many factors, such as coincidence, attitude and others. In order to fulfill our lives, we must seize the chance to realize our dreams.

总的来说,每个人都有机会成功,机遇包含着很多因素,比如偶然因素,态度和其它的因素。为了充实我们的生活,我们一定要抓住机遇来实现我们的梦想。

I try to do a good job, in order to round my college dream, perhaps the greater the hope, the greater the disappointment. With the day of the end of the college entrance examination, in the days of countless expectations, the dream was eventually broken, the heart was broken, the world seemed to be suffocated.

But, life has to continue, I can not give up the dream of childhood, I still have a lot of wish can not be realized. I know that everything may start again, as long as I have the courage to face life.

In the limitless longings and reverie, college life began. Time is always slipping away from behind you, slipping from your feet, flying through your vision... Unwittingly, the life of the university is almost a year! I remember when I first entered university, I often walked alone in a big campus and looked at a strange face. My heart was so lonely. At that instant, I felt so small. However, I am still so confident of myself, in fact, sometimes people are really helpless, and that is the only motive for me to cheer up.

Many times, love the memories of that intense and full of high school life, then it seems that we have not grown up, the childhood heart do not seem to disappear, remember that failed the exam because stubborn grin. Want to cry but the girl smiled at me; remember that smile to see people love, cocked his head the boy asked me questions; think of...... Everything is so clear and clear. When we are living in the moment, we do not feel that we are happy, looking back at the road that we have passed, the rest is only regrettable! At this time I think of a very ordinary word, "lose only to know how to cherish" must be the true meaning of life.

I do not want to let myself live in yesterday, because there is no hope yesterday, only memories. As I have taken too much attention to yesterday, today has slipped away silently, tomorrow unwittingly arrived, what I own is more and more belonging to yesterday. I dont want to let my tomorrow regret for today.

After entering the University, learning is no longer so nervous, it seems that there is more time and space to be dominated by yourself, as long as you have enough passion to invest. Gradually, I feel that I am growing up in an invisible way. I am strong and independent. Time elders are always so amazing. Under his guidance, I find the sky that belongs to me. Life is no longer empty, no longer monotonous, no solitude... In the study, you never come up, because he is very clear, life is not sympathy for the weak, not motivated people shouldnt have today, even if life gives me so much. Every time I failed due to an attempt, not inferiority, not to complain about life there are too many twists and turns, the sea waves roll if lost, lost forceful desert; if Kuangwu Feisha lost, lost spectacular. Life is also the same, living too vulgar, life is lost the original charm. In life, I have known many friends. I have always believed that meeting people in the vast sea is a way to know each other and become friends. Everyones heart is not the same color, everyone has a different world in the heart, because of this, and sometimes not with friends. Because of the misunderstanding of friends quietly tears, once because of the emergence of a generation gap with their parents a loud cry or be sad, because...... Maybe this is youth. When you are young, you can laugh and make trouble. This is the special treatment that youth gives us. If you no longer have strong physique, vigorous energy and unlimited potential, you will no longer be young.

Most of the time, love a person sit and think a lot of things, want to far away things, as if not to the point of reverie. Occasionally a stiff giggle, no scruple of laughter, occasional tears, crying... Perhaps, I have not grown up before I have entered the University, the heart of the childlike innocence is still in. In fact, how I wish I didnt grow up, because that way I dont have to bear more responsibilities, there will be no more troubles and pressures, I believe in myself and be an angel of happiness. Use your own smile to melt the cold around, to illuminate the darkness around it. But I believe that when I experienced that day exposed to wind and rain, the day when I stumbled and fell again, the day when I flew through the sky, I have grown up, I will be very proud to tell the world: "grow up!"

In fact, living is happiness, even if your life is spent in failure. For a living, you can see the mountains are green, the sea is blue, the snow is white; as alive, can understand life like onions, as long as you own a piece of it, there is always one will let you tears.

When I understand all of this, it seems a lot easier. I no longer need to carry too much. I can live more naturally and live well in my own way, for all the people I love and those who love me. There is a never exhausted spring in the world, there is a deep sense of love will never die out.

To be grateful to my parents...

To be grateful to friends...

Be grateful to life...

I am so happy！

我试着努力去做好，为了圆我的大学梦，或许希望越大，失望就越大。伴随着高考结束的那一天，在无数期待的日子里，梦最终还是碎了，心也碎了，世界仿佛都窒息了！

可是，生活不得不继续，我不能放弃儿时的梦想，我还有着很多心愿未能实现。我知道一切的一切都可能重头开始，只要我有足够的勇气面对生活。

在无限的憧憬和遐想中，大学生活开始了。时间总是从你身后悄无声息的溜走，从你的脚底下滑过，从你的视野里飞过……不知不觉中，大学生活都快一年啦！还记得刚进大学时，每每独自走在偌大一个校园里望着一张张陌生的面孔，内心是那么的孤寂，就在那一瞬间，感觉到自己竟是如此的渺小。然而，我对自己依旧那么自信，其实有时候人真的很无奈，那也成为我振作起来的唯一动力。

很多时候，总爱回忆那段紧张而又充实的高中生活，那时的我们似乎还未长大，内心的那份童真似乎还未泯灭，想起了那个因为考试不及格倔强地咧嘴想哭却又冲我笑的女孩；想起了那个微笑着看人，喜欢歪着头问我问题的男孩；想起了……一切的一切都是如此的清晰明朗。当我们正活在当下时并未感到自己是幸福的，回头看看自己走过的路，剩下的也只有遗憾啦！这时让我想起一句极平凡的话“失去才懂得珍惜”想必就是生活的真谛吧。

我不想让自己生活在昨天，因为昨天没有希望，只有回忆。当我过多的注意昨天时，今天已无声无息地溜走，明天不知不觉的到来，我所拥有的是越来越多的归属于昨天。我不想再让自己的明天为今天而遗憾。

步入大学后，学习已不再那么的紧张，似乎有着更多的时间和空间由你自己去支配，只要你有足够的激情投入。渐渐的，感觉自己在无形中长大了，独立了，坚强了，时间老人总是那样的神奇，在他的带领下我找到了那片属于自己的天空。生活不再空虚，不再单调，不再孤寂……在学习上，自己从不敢懈迨，因为自己很清楚，生活是不会同情弱者的，不上进的人不该拥有今天的美好，即使生活给予我太多的磨难。我把每一次的失败归结为一次尝试，不去自卑，不去抱怨生命有太多的曲折，大海如果失去了巨浪的翻滚，就失去了雄浑；沙漠如果失去了飞沙的狂舞，就失去了壮观。人生也是如此，活得太庸俗，生命也就失去了原有的魅力。生活上，结识了很多朋友，一直深信着，茫茫人海中，能相遇是一种缘，能相识从而成为朋友更让我倍加的珍惜。每个人的心灵色彩都不会一样，每个人心中都有不同的世界，正因为如此，时而与朋友发生不快。曾因朋友的误解而悄然的流泪，曾因与父母出现了代沟而大声的哭泣或默然的伤感，曾因……也许这就是青春。青春时可以笑，可以闹，这都是青春给予我们特殊的待遇，如果有一天你不再拥有健壮的体魄，旺盛的精力，无限的潜力时，那时你已不再年轻。

很多时候，喜欢一个人呆呆地坐着，想很多的事，想很远的事，仿佛是不着边际的遐想。偶尔会一个劲的傻笑，毫无顾忌的笑，偶尔也会不停地流泪，惊天动地地哭……或许，早已步入大学的我还未长大，内心的那份童心依旧在。其实，我是多么的希望自己不要长大，因为那样就不必承担更多的责任，不会有更多的烦恼和压力了，信奉自己能够做一个快乐的天使。用自己的微笑去融化周围的寒冷，去照亮这周围的黑暗。但我相信，当我经历了风吹雨打的那一天，当我再次跌倒和踉跄的那一天，当我从天空飞过的那一天，我已经长大，我会很自豪的告诉世界：“长大真好！”

其实活着就是幸福，即使你的一辈子都是在失败中度过。因为活着，可以看到山是绿的，海是蓝的，雪是白的；因为活着，可以明白日子活像洋葱，只要你自己一片片的剥开，总有一片是会让你流泪不止的。

当我明白这一切时，似乎轻松了许多，我不再需要背负太多，我可以更加潇洒地活着，按自己的方式好好地活着，为了所有我爱的人和爱我的人！世界上有一个永远不会枯竭的泉眼，那里有浓浓的爱流出，不会枯竭。

对父母心怀感激……

对朋友心怀感激……

对生活心怀感激……

我很快乐！

I am from shenzhen. In spring ,the weather is warm and wet.I can play kite. In summer, the weather is hot and wet. I can swim in the swimming pool. In the autumn, the weather is cool and dry. I can play kite, too. In the winter, the weather is cold and dry. It never snows.

自主招生又称自主选拔，是高校选拔录取工作改革的重要环节。一般通过考试后招生学校会与其签订招生考试合同，签订合同后，一般可享受降低10分至几十分录取的优惠政策。你是如何看待这一策略的呢?

Theres a heated discussion that universities should or should not independent recruitment of students test.

Some of my school students think that independent recruitment is right.Firstly,it can relieve the universities because it can save many procedures.Secondly,its the universities own right to do it.Because these universities can choose the students they like.

The rest of my schoolmates dont agree the independent recruitment of students test.First of all,it abandons the cultural advantage of our country and isnt good to spread our culture.Because the traditional recruitment method has its own benefit to the country and students.If we give up this way,we have to find an unknown way,which may sacrifice many students interest.Furthermore,it can mislead the basic education method.Because if most of universities recruit independently,many courses will be ignored.

I dont agree with the independent recruitment of students test.I think we should insist the successful and continuous recruitment methods because it proves to be true.

Protecting the Environment

With the improvement of our living standard, more and more people can afford a car. As a result, our roads are more often than not crammed with cars. However, with more and more waste gas being discharged by the cars, the problem of air pollution becomes even more serious. So nowadays we advocate to lead a low-carbon life.

My suggestion is we should ride bikes more often instead of driving cars.By riding a bike, we can not only exercise our body but also protect our environment. Why not have a try, my dear friends?

When I was young at high school,I couldnt stop dreaming about my college life again and again.Suffering too much pressure form college entrance test,I always admired college students for their relaxed life in college.

In my personal opinion,living in university is  an enjoyment.Every day we can open our eyes naturally,and put on clothes in our own style without warring about teachers rigid control.Communicating with great master is no longer beyond our reach.Each course we take can be a feast for our mind and soul.After class,we will lead a rich and colorful life filled with various leisure activities such as .Library in  university is another factor I pursue.I think its an access to enhancing our comprehensive abilities to read even just scan all  sorts of

writings.Whats more,we will have so much disposable time that we can do whatever worthy.And our contact group will be extended signally via organizing and participating many activities.All in all,I once imagined that I can live a life that is substantial but meaningful.

However,I just have to admit that what I just describe is really dream.Now living in SD I cant figure out what I pursue and make a feasible career planning.So many young cynics in this schoolyard  argue for something meaningless.Worse still,the academic atmosphere has already done with nothing left.I havent found a busy but rich thing to try my best.As a matter of fact,I even cant choose a lifestyle I prefer.What a tragedy it is between dream and reality.

As a college student, I want to make some little money, because I want to prove that I can live by my own as a grow-up. The part-time job is my best choice, because I have a lot of time and I can make use of it. But doing a part-time is not just to make money, but also to learn from the experience.

作为一名大学生，我想要挣一些钱，因为我想要证明作为成年人，我也能自己养活自己。兼职就是我最好的选择，因为我有很多的时间，可以充分利用。但是做兼职不仅仅是为了挣钱，也是为了学习经验。

When choosing a part-time job, we’d better make the wise choice. First, we can choose the job that has something relate with our future job, so that we can have the work experience. Such as if I want to be a teacher in the future, then I can choose to be a tutor, so when I find the job as my career, I will be competitive. Second, part-time should not spend students’ too much time, because it is students’ main duty to learn knowledge, so that the time for the part-time job better to be on the weekends.

当选择一份兼职时，我们最好最明智的选择。第一，我们可以选择和我们将来要从事的工作有关的兼职，这样我们就会有工作经验。比如我将来想成为一名教师，然后我可以选择成为家教，这样在我找将来的工作的时候，就会有竞争力。第二，兼职不该花费学生太多的精力，因为学生的主要职责是学习知识，所以做兼职的时间最好是在周末。

Doing the part-time job is good for college students, they will gain the working experience and prepare for the future. They need to choose the right job.

做兼职对大学生是有好处的，他们会得到工作经验，为将来做准备。他们需要选择正确的工作。

As a sophomore， I am feeling the time flies. Recalling about the past one year， so many thoughts are flooding in my mind. At this time， I just can’t tell my real idea. The memory is just like so fresh， and all the things happened yesterday!

When first day I came to University， I really feel that the school is very good， but at the first sight of the dormitory， something disappointing come up to me! The condition of the dormitory is really very poor with only one room， no lavatory! I saw something sad in my father’s eyes， maybe that time he thought of the poor condition! So with a big smile on my face， I told my father” it doesn’t matter， Dad. In this kind of condition， I will get myself better!” My father felt better. But when he was coming back， seeing his back， I just wanted to cry! I felt in this city I was just isolated， from that time， I said to myself， “ you have no others who can help you here， just depend on yourself”

And then I came to my dormitory 303. I considered that I would spend four years here (in fact I moved to another one year later) and my dorm mates are all there. Most of them came from Sichuan and they were chatting with a happy voice， but I can’t understand them! Again， I felt myself isolated! I hated that kind of feeling， and then I said to hello to them! To my surprise they are very friendly to me and warm-hearted! I no longer felt afraid. And I got along well with them. But at the first night here， I burst out to tears for that I was missing my family. I don’t know why. Everyday when I was at home， I was just eager to go to school， to experience the wonderful college life but when coming here， I am just eager to go back! It’s quite strange though， you must know this kind of feeling!

Just spending about 2 days here， we were on our way to military train. To us， it’s a fresh train and a kind of experience to know the life between the classmates. But to me， I was nervous but excited. This was my first and precious train life because before going to school I have been staying with my family. So， you know， it’s just this kind of feeling I can’t convey it clearly! The train life is impressive on everybody; we had a lot of activities， for example giving a speech on a stage or singing together or playing basketball. At that time， I felt myself so little among them. All of them have a special talent but not me. I admired them but meanwhile jealousy. Why don’t I have this kind of talent? Am I stupid? I always said to myself. So that time I was also very ambitious， just eager to catch up with them. Except the classmates， the trainer in our team also left a deep impression on me! He was not very handsome and very kind. Just because of his kindness results in my laughter when training. He always said to me that I should be serious in the team but I didn’t listen to him. So after a long time， when investigating the training result， I gave them a disappointing answer.

作为一个二年级学生,我感觉时间过得真快,回忆过去的一年,很多想法都是洪水在我的脑海里。在这个时候,我不能告诉我真正的想法。记忆就像新鲜的,和昨天发生的一切!

当我第一天来到大学,我真的觉得学校很好,但是一见钟情的宿舍,令人失望的东西来我!宿舍的条件真的很穷,只有一个房间,没有厕所!我看到了一些悲伤在我父亲的眼睛,也许那时他想到可怜的条件!一个大的微笑在我的脸上,我告诉我的父亲“没关系,爸爸。在这种情况下,我会让自己更好!“我父亲感觉好多了。但当他回来时,看到他回来,我只是想哭!我觉得在这个城市我只是孤立的,从那个时候,我对自己说,“你没有其他人可以帮助你在这里,只是依靠你自己”

然后我来到我的宿舍303。我认为我会花四年时间在这里(事实上我搬到另一个一年后)和我的室友都在那。他们中的大多数来自四川和他们聊天开心的声音,但是我不能理解他们!再一次,我觉得自己孤立!我讨厌那样的感觉,然后我向他们说你好!让我惊讶的是他们对我很友好和热心的!我不再感到害怕,我和他们相处得很好。但是在这里的第一个晚上,我突然的眼泪,我不见了我的家人,我不知道为什么。每天我在家里的时候,我只是渴望上学,体验精彩的大学生活,但当来到这里,我只是想回去!不过,很奇怪你必须知道这种感觉!

支出约2天在这里,我们在军事训练。对我们来说,这是一个新鲜的火车和一种经验知道同学之间的生活。但对我来说,我又紧张又兴奋。这是我第一次和珍贵的训练生活,因为在上学之前我一直跟我的家人住在一起。所以,你知道,只是这种感觉我不能表达清楚!火车生活是令人印象深刻的大家,我们有很多的活动,例如演讲舞台上一起唱歌或者打篮球。当时,我觉得自己这么少。他们都有一种特别的天赋,但不是我。我敬佩他们,但与此同时嫉妒。为什么不给我这样的人才吗?我是愚蠢的吗?我总是对自己说,所以这段时间我也非常雄心勃勃的,只是渴望赶上他们。除了同学,我们团队的教练也给我留下了深刻的印象!他不是非常英俊,非常善良。仅仅因为他的善良的结果在我的笑声训练。他总是对我说,我应该在团队严重但我没有听他的。所以很长一段时间后,调查培训结果的时候,我给了他们一个令人失望的答案。

大学是我们每一个人梦想的殿堂，为了来到这个殿堂我们经历了风风雨雨。既然跨进了这道门槛，那么就让我们在这梦想的殿堂里尽情的挥洒个性吧。下面小编带来的是适应大学生活的英语作文，希望对你有帮助。

If life is a book, then the university life is the most beautiful color in the book; if life is a drama, then the university life is the most wonderful scene of the play, if life is a long journey from birth to death; then we have a college life, can see the most splendid scenery. Friends, at the best time of your life, have you set sail to the ideal shore? Have you stretched out your strong wings and are heading for the free sky? Are you excited by entering the University, and your heart is willing to make the next wish and fight for it?

In the long dream, we bided sword, those unforgettable days are still visible before the eyes. In the day of harvest in our understanding through their own efforts to accomplish one thing is how meaningful, and we walked together to the beautiful campus, stand together through storm and stress. Standing at the new starting point, I was so excited, and so was so...

However, in the university life picture spread, I found in search of searching the end are not past the heart of "the person is in the dim light of joy". The dream he found Baidu, was veiled. This time, I have been confused and wandering, but time will not stop it from footsteps, forward Zhu Ziqing wrote "when I wash my hands, in the past day from the basin; when you eat, the days from their jobs in the past; when silent, the double eyes ningran from the past. I am aware of his hurry... " Yes, time is like water, and there are still many things to do in our life. For dreams, lets cherish our time and accumulate bit by bit from now on, so that our university life will become richer, richer and more rhythmic.

In life I hope happy with success, I know the smile in every youth season, the call of the sea: we will not let the courage to fight back in the waves, blue sky call, cannot let fly wings degradation in dark clouds.

We all have the dreams and the pursuit of the people, do not give up the pace of progress because of the difficult road. The process of pursuing the dream is bitter, but only through the sharpened life will have more connotations. Do not let uneasy heart be impetuous occupy, but ride the soul of the wings to learn knowledge on campus, learn from different levels of people in a better way to behave. In four years, it is very difficult to persist, but giving up is very easy. We always believe that winter is coming, spring is not far away, not through the winter without warm nor Zhichun, not through the desert water sweet, without fail do not understand the joy of success. Because the young, we are likely to fail, but it is young gave us courage and never give up capital. As long as we walk all the way through our feet with passion, we will eventually win.

The university is full of talent, learning, and a small stage and small society full of competition and challenge. Every one of us in this stage plays a different role, why dont we try to play the role of their best! As a college student, we are eager to positive rather than blind impulse, bold and not wantonly recklessly, dare to think and not utopian, deep into thinking and not like a dead end...... Lets seize the youth and exercise ourselves here. Leave your hard figure in the organization activities, show your most beautiful appearance in the club activities, and offer your strength in volunteering. Here you get not only a kind of knowledge, but also the most valuable wealth of life. When we were young, in their prime, pointing Jiangshan jiyangwenzi. Let the flower of life give birth to the color of youth, and let the youth glow because of vitality. The university campus, not do not, only unexpected, let us give full play to our talents! People are less living, the university is the most cherished. Lets not let the youth idle away, and load a little gain in every days life, so that a confident smile will float on your face, and I believe firmly that there will be rewards for giving and passionate excitement.

The university is not a fantasy, not a dream, not a delusion, but a great ideal. As long as we fight for it, fight for it. One day we will return! You will hear the maple leaf flow boat at that time, you will see the Chrysopsis laughing, you can smell the fruit fragrance, for you to the harvest season!

“The people who get on in this world are the people who get up and look for circumstance they want, and if they cannot find them, make them.” Such is the remark made by Bernard Shaw, a great writer. This view has been shared now by more and more people. I’m very glad to receive college education and i reached the conclusion that i have come to college not for one single reason, but for many.

“这世上的成功之士，是那些奋力寻觅自己想要得到机遇的人们。倘使找不着机会，他们就自己创造机会。”这句名言是一个伟大的作家萧伯纳写的。被原来越多的人分享着。我很高兴能够接受大学教育，我总结出我想上大学不单单是为了一个原因，而是很多个。

First, university is such an ideal place to broaden my horizon and make more friends. The youth of 21stcentury should be open-minded, instead of being a person with a tunnel vision. I’m ready to meet more challenges and make more friends during the four years.

第一，大学是能开阔我眼界和结交更多朋友的理想之地。作为21世纪的年轻人，我们应该开拓思维，而不是目光狭隘。我已经做好在这四年内接受挑战和认识更多朋友的准备了。

Second, I’m unwilling to step into the society straight after high school. I’m afraid I’m not fully prepared for the working environment: complicated interpersonal problems, jockeying for position, a tremendous amount of pressure and etc. I have to face various kinds of major conflicts as well as trivial things. I seem to be over-pessimistic, but that actually accounts for part of my choice.

第二，我不愿意在高中之后就直接进入社会。我害怕我没有完全做好踏入工作环境的准备：复杂的人际问题，用手段谋取职位，巨大的压力等等。我必须面对各种重大冲突还有琐碎事情。我也许是过度悲观了，但是事实上这也是我做出选择的一个原因。

Finally, thanks to the all-out support from my parents, i am able to further my study in university. I’ll spare no efforts to live up to their expectation on me to be a well-trained and well-rounded person.

最后，幸好有我父母的全力支持，我才得以在大学继续我的学业。我会不留余力地满足他们的期望成为一个训练有素全面发展的人。

I will learn experience and challenge myself in my college life and be an outstanding person of future.

我会在大学生涯中学习，经历和挑战我自己，在未来成为一个佼佼者。

How time flies! One month has passed before I could take any notice of it. This is the start of my freshman year in Fudan University. At the very beginning, everything and everyone is strange to me. But now, everyday and in everyway, I am getting better;I am getting used to it.

I would like to tell you two things in my university life that are of great importance and interest.

Freedom is what I am looking forward to since the very first day of my primary school. A lot of people said to me, "Study hard, and you will get freedom when in university." But when I really entered university, I find the real situation is different.Freedom costs me a lot. If I refuse to wash my clothes, for example, they will just lay there, unclean. In a word, I have to do everything and take care of myself. Well, it doesn‘t mean that I don‘t like the life style. On the contrary, I like it very much though it is hard at the beginning. It is really a challenge for me.

I appreciate a famous saying from Albert Camus, "Freedom is nothing but a chance to be better." That‘s right. Real freedom comes with responsibility. Some teenagers believe that freedom means doing whatever you like. But I think that is not real freedom at all. One can have his or her own freedom, while at the same time respect others‘. It is not easy to think on behalf of others. University life provides me with this precious chance to practice it.

Every Chinese, who experienced 1980s, will remember forever the day November 6th 1981 when the China National Womens Volleyball Team defeated the Japan National Team (the so-called "Toyo Women Magic") with 3 to 2 at the 3rd World Womens Volleyball Cup in Osaka Japan. Thats the first world title for China Womens Volleyball Team. Everyone was shocked by this news. At that time, China had just been out of the "Cultural Revolution". When the news was broadcasted, people burst into joyful tears.

Their victory was the result of all the former volleyball players effort. In 1965,a famous coach of Japan was invited to China to help train the China National Womens Volleyball Team. Seeing both the players conscientious and spirit and the support from the Chinese people, he exclaimed, "Im sure that the China National Womens Volleyball Team will become strong!"

In 1982, the China National Womens Volleyball Team won the gold medal again at the World Womens Volleyball Championships in Peru under the leadership of Yuan Weimin.

In August 1984, the China National Womens Volleyball Team defeated successively the Japan National Team and the US National Team with 3 to 0, and won the gold medal again at the 23rd Olympic Games, which realized the "Triple Crown" dream at the world matches. The pride head coach of Japan National Team said, "Defeating China National Team is equal to block the Yangtze River. Both are impossible." The American coach said, "I hope our children will play basketball as well as the Chinese girls."

The elder players gradually retired after 1985. Then Lang Ping, the World No.1 Spiker at that time, was named the captain. She and her teammates went to Japan to join in the 4th World Cup, and won the title for the 4th time without losing any match.

Two years later, the China National Womens Volleyball Team came to the 14th World Womens Volleyball Team Championships. Though the famous players, such as the "Iron Girl" Cao Huiying, the "Iron Hammer" Lang Ping, the "Wall of Tian An Men Rostrum" Zhou Xiaolan, and the "Quick Attacker" Zhang Rongfang, had retired, the Chinese girls still won the gold medal by their strength and wisdom. The "Penta Crown" shocked the world. What a miracle!

The "Penta Crown" is not only a great honor, but also an ever spur. It has become the spirit of the China National Womens Volleyball Team. At present, the China National Womens Volleyball Team has become a symbol of striving and competing in Chinese peoples hearts.

As the fast development of other countries volleyball career, the China National Womens Volleyball Team had lost parts of their advantages for a period. In early 1995, Lang Ping, the former core player of the "Penta Crown" team, became the head coach of the Chinese National Team. Though its very hard to train these young players in such a short time, she made it. The China National Womens Volleyball Team won the bronze medals at the 7th World Cups at the end of 1995. Then they won the silver medals at the Atlanta Olympic Games in 1996, and the gold medals at the 13th Asian Games in 1998. The China National Womens Volleyball Team became the No.1 in Asian again. Whats more, they made a greater miracle at the Athens Olympic Games in 2004. These young girls defeated the rival in a very disadvantaged situation and won the gold medals finally, which were the bestaffirmation for their previous hard work.

Along with Reform and Opening up Policys carrying on and the Spirit of the National Womens Volleyball Team, volleyball had spread in all parts of China. You can find people playing volleyball everywhere, not only in the residential areas and the countryside, but also in schools and factories. The Beijing 2008 Olympic Games render a nationwide movement of body-building in China. Meanwhile, it serves more chances for the sports events development including the volleyball in China.
