Discussion
I think Chinese sports idioms come mostly from martial arts like shooting or sword dance. They are usually derived from historical stories or events, which is quite different from English sports idioms. Many Chinese idioms show positive and encouraging meanings. However, both Chinese and English idioms have developed some additional meanings and are often used in daily life, showing the importance of sport in our lives.

My Favorite Sports Player
If you ask me about the sports players I admire, Kobe Bryant’s name always tops the list. He played his entire 20-year career with the Los Angeles Lakers of the National Basketball Association, and won 5 NBA championships with Lakers and was the all-time leading scorer in Lakers. Undoubtedly, he is one of the greatest scorers in NBA history.
I have loved Kobe ever since I was 7 years old. I saw him when he strove for the highest standards and made 81 points. I saw him each time he got the MVP award in both the NBA and All-Star games. I saw everything he accomplished as a legend, and my role model in life. His life story will always inspire me to try my best in my studies and future career.

Dear Leo,
I’m writing to share with you some information about your idol — Zheng Qinwen. Qween Wen, born and raised in Hubei, China in 2002, developed her love for playing tennis at a very young age. She quickly showed promise, progressing through the ranks of the junior circuit with impressive results, and then achieved notable successes in both domestic and international tournaments. She has secured tour championships, reached Grand Slam finals, and become the second Chinese player to enter the world’s top ten. Remarkably, she became the first Chinese player to win an Olympic Singles event in tennis in Paris.
It is her determination and strong will that contribute to her success, and it’s she who has planted the seeds of dream in the hearts of numerous teenagers.
Yours’
Li Hua
