Good afternoon, principal, teachers and all students．It is my   31      to be here to give a talk to all of you．I have studied in this school for five years．In these five years, I learned one precious thing important not only to me  32       to all of you here, and it is “reading”．I can always gain knowledge from reading．Reading doesn’t not  33       up a lot of time but I gain a lot．Now I would like to share my reading experiences with you．

I once read a book Rare Air: Michael on Michael  34       by the greatest basketball player in the history, Michael Jordan．While we envy his great achievement in the basketball and business aspects, few of us focus on his spirit of persistence．In the book, he talks about his experience of how he walks on the   35       of success．In order to join the NBA, he put in every effort to strengthen his muscle, to improve his skills  36      training hard．Because of his efforts, he successfully entered the NBA．

However, he did not stop his training．   37         , the training was even stricter,        38          prepared him to deny the statement released by the public, ‘Michael is a weak guy!’ While the criticism against him diminished（减弱；变小）, he worked even harder to achieve his next goal — the championship of the NBA．Finally, he succeeded．

People honor Michael as ‘God of basketball’ not only for his great basketball skills, but mainly for his spirit of persistence．While we admire his spirit, we can follow his spirit as well．Michael should be our example; we ought to learn from him．As long as we work hard,    39        is impossible．Bear in mind that all of you have the same quality．Nobody is born wise．Putting in effort is the only but effective way to advancement．My fellow schoolmates, before I go, I would like to encourage all of you that we should work as hard as we  40      ．When you grow up, you may be the one who is admired by the community．My fellow schoolmates, let’s work hard together! Work for our future! Thank you．
