北京奥运会英语作文

The Athens Olympic Games, which lasted 17 days, finally dropped their curtain on Aug. 29, 2004. More than 10,000 athletes from over 200 countries and areas took part. China, in its best Olympic showing in history, won 32 gold medals in 13 events, second only to the United States. The Chinese athletes performed so wonderfully that they made a breakthrough at many events, such as Liu Xiang in men’s 110m hurdles, Sun Tiantian and Li Ting in tennis. The surprising result earned high praise from the central government, which called on all Chinese to learn from the athletes.

The Chinese athletes have set a good example to us students. We should devote every effort to our studies and try our best to achieve greater progress.
