Lots of junior high school students enjoy sports. My classmates and I had a lot of 1 at our school's yearly sports meeting last week.
It was pretty 2 for me because I took part in the 800-meter race for the first time. 3 I practiced running hard every day, I was still nervous on the day of the meeting.
My arms were shaking and my heart was beating 4 when I stood at the starting line. 5 the endless runway (跑道), I felt like a boat fighting against the wind and rain. I 6 myself that simply joining in was a victory (胜利) itself. I started to calm down(冷静).
Just then, the starting gun 7 and all the runners rushed out like tigers running down a hill. By the time I finished the first lap (圈), I had used up almost all my 8. But I had to keep running for the last 100 meters. I 9 I couldn't breathe. Looking at the runners in front of me, as they got closer to the finishing line, I really wanted to 10 running and sit down. But I reminded myself that it must be a victory to keep going and it filled me 11 strength (力量) again. With my remaining strength, I desperately (拼命地) 12 to the end of the finishing line.
I 13 in seventh place. This might have been a 14 achievement to other people, but it made me feel excited and 15. I have tried all my best.
