1. What reasons does the writer give for choosing Lang Ping and Michael Jordan
The writer chooses Lang Ping for her triple achievements: as a player who brought "honour and glory to her country"; as a coach who led the team to world championships and Olympic gold medals; and as a person who is "loved by fans at home and abroad." The text specifically highlights her determination when her team was "falling apart" before the 2015 World Cup, proving her mental strength and ability to overcome challenges.
The writer chooses Michael Jordan because he "changed basketball with his graceful moves and jumps," but more importantly, for "the mental strength that he showed," which made him unique. His secret to success is "learning from his failures," and his philosophy is that while he can accept failure, he "can’t accept not trying." Furthermore, the writer notes his contribution off the court, mentioning the Boys and Girls Club he started to help young people.
Who would you choose as another "living legend" Give your reasons.
Example Answer:
I would choose Yao Ming. As a basketball player, he achieved great success in the NBA and became a global icon, bridging cultures between China and the rest of the world. Following his retirement, he has dedicated himself to philanthropy and wildlife conservation, particularly protecting elephants and sharks. His transition from a top athlete to a influential public figure demonstrates the same spirit of leadership and contribution found in Lang Ping and Michael Jordan.
