Sample:I'd like to talk about the sport meeting held in our school. Our school holds

sports meeting once a year, and it is one of the most important events for us.

The sports meeting usually lasts for two days. The students participating in

the event will keep training for several months in advance. Those who don't

take part in it also look forward to it because during those two days, the

lessons will be cancelled.

There are many races and matches on the sports meeting such as relay races

and basketball match. I didn't participate in it until last year when a

competitor from our class was injured accidentally. Just two weeks ahead of

the sports meeting, I was informed to replace him to take part in the

1500-meter-race. It was the first time that I had participated in such kind of

sports event and I am not so good at long-distance running, so I was really

nervous and anxious about my performance in the race. But I determined to

do well, and I told myself that I must at least finish the race. During those two

weeks, our monitor accompanied me to run around our playground every

morning and evening. On the big day, I had made good preparations for it at

least mentally. But it was still a challenge for me and I was the last one to

reach the finishing line.

This experience had a great influence on me: it aroused my interest in sports

and I spend more time doing exercise now.

Sample2:

The sport competition I'd like to talk about was the long-distance running, one

I took part in at university. It's impressive for it's the first and also the last

time for me to participate in school sports meeting, what's more, it's the one I

didn't complete.

Short as I am, I'm good at running. Running, I believe is a good option for me

to keep healthy. Weather permitting, I will run in the morning, or occasionally

at night for 1,000 meters a day. I've kept doing it since my studying at

secondary school.

Though I love running, I've no idea of taking competition. On the third year,

my roommate signed me up for the 800 meters running held by our faculty of

Language, the winners of which would take part in school sports meeting

representing our faculty. On a Friday morning, I competed with a total of

twelve students, and unexpectedly I was the fastest to reach the finishing line

where I was warmly received by my roommates, ahead of other runners about

five seconds. So I, together with another student was selected to run for our

college at school sports meeting held two days later.

To be honest, I was excited and a bit afraid of running for competing. Since

800-meter-running was scheduled to begin at 10 am, I decided to do some

washing at laundry to distract myself at about 8 that morning, leaving my

phone in the dorm. When I checked my phone half an hour later, I found there

were several missed calls. I called back and found that the time had been

changed, and it was set to start at 9. On hearing that, I rushed out of dorm to the playground, only to find it's finished. It's hard to describe my mixed

feeling at that time.

Whenever I recalled the time while studying at university, the special running

experience would come to my mind, which made me laugh with regret.
