今年新的学期，我们的体育老师为了增强我们的体质，要求我们每一个周都要完成一个特定的作业，一周一个体育锻炼项目。这周是进行仰卧起坐的项目练习。一听到这个消息，我就头疼，因为这是我的弱项，而且老师说每天要做35个，我的天哪，这么多，我怎么能受得了呢？
In the new semester of this year, in order to strengthen our physique, our physical education teachers require us to complete a specific homework every week, a physical exercise project every week. This week is a sit-up exercise. As soon as I heard the news, I had a headache, because it was my weakness, and the teacher said that I had to do 35 every day. My God, how can I stand all this?
星期一，因为下午有我参加的社团活动，所以，我回到家，已经是五点多钟了。我用最快的速度做完家庭作业，已经是六点半了。我刚想休息的时候，妈妈提醒我说：“仰卧起坐。”“哦！”我不耐烦地答道。
On Monday, it was more than five o'clock when I got home because of the community activities I attended in the afternoon. I finished my homework at the fastest speed. It was half past six. When I was about to rest, my mother reminded me, "Sit-ups." "Oh!" I answered impatiently.
妈妈为我收拾了一块地方----收去被子的床铺。我躺上去，把双腿曲成90°，双脚板平放在床铺上，双手叉手放在脑袋后边，妈妈双腿叉开坐在我的脚面上，俯身用双手抱住我的小腿肚。准备好了之后，我双手托头向上带劲，协调腰部用力，向上坐起。第一个起坐好像还很轻松，第二个起坐感觉还可以，但是，到了第三个、第四个，我就不行了，上身就像一条肥毛虫一样，左右晃动。到了第五个，我就仰在床上不想起来了，妈妈在一旁说：“坚持，坚持啊！”
Mother made a place for me - the bed with the quilt. I lie down, bend my legs into 90 degrees, put my feet flat on the bed, put my hands behind my head, and my mother sat on my feet with her legs open, leaning over and holding my calf belly with her hands. When I was ready, I lifted my head up with both hands, coordinated my waist and sat up. The first one seems relaxed and the second one feels OK, but by the third and fourth, I can't do it. My upper body is like a caterpillar, shaking from side to side. By the fifth, I was back in bed and didn't want to get up. My mother said, "Hold on, stick to it!"
我又运运气，仰下、起坐，仰下、起坐……，六个、七个……，10分钟过去了，我的肚子都发酸了，动作也笨拙得要命，才做了30个，我真的不想做了，摊在了床上不起来。
I was lucky to sit up, down, up... Six, seven... Ten minutes later, my stomach was sore and my movements were awkward. Only 30 were done. I really didn't want to do it. I couldn't stand up on the bed.
妈妈在一旁不紧不慢地说：“起来啊，只剩下五个了。坚持！”
Mom said slowly and carelessly, "Get up, there are only five left. Stick to it! "
我听了，使出了全身力气，气喘吁吁地扭动着身体，……剩下的五个，我终于做完了。仰在床上，长长地舒了一口气。
I listened, exerted all my strength, panting and twisting my body,... I finished the remaining five. He leaned back on the bed and breathed a long sigh of relief.
就这样，周二、周三……，我坚持不懈地练习，仰卧起坐时，也不那么费力了，而且做得越来越好，越来越快，越来越轻松，就像一只自由伸展的大虾那么自如。到了最后，一分钟之内就完成了35个仰卧起坐了。我非常开心，爸爸妈妈也为我高兴。
That's it. Tuesday, Wednesday... I practiced relentlessly, and when sitting up on my back, I was less laborious, and I did it better and better, faster and faster, and more relaxed, just like a free-stretching prawn. In the end, 35 sit-ups were completed in one minute. I am very happy, and my parents are happy for me.
通过这件事，使我认识到：一个人只要坚持去做一件事，努力做到最好，那这件事就肯定能成功！
Through this, I realized that if a person insists on doing one thing and strives to do the best, then this thing will surely succeed! ___________
