Liu Yu, a 15 - year - old boy from Shandong, is a running star. He is on his school team and has always wanted to be a professional runner when he grows up. However, his parents think it’s too difficult to become a professional sports star. So they don’t allow Liu Yu to train as much as he wants. They have nothing against running, and they have supported every one of Liu Yu’s races. But they think that Liu Yu needs to think about other possible jobs. “He needs to think about what will happen if he doesn’t end up as a professional runner,” says Mr. Liu.
They believe that Liu Yu should study hard in the evenings so they don’t allow him to practice running at night. Liu Yu doesn’t agree. 4.他认为熟能生巧。He wants to spend more time on it. His parents have always taught him how important it is to work hard at school and enter university. Though he understands it, he is serious about running, and he also believes that he will succeed one day.
