Lance Armstrong,a world-famous cyclist,was already a professional athlete at the age of 16        ,taking part in courses of long distance swims,bike rides and runs.

    In his high school years,Lance decided to train cycling. Within a few years,he was a member of the 1992 US Olympic Team. Over the next years,he went on to win many cycling races worldwide.

    In October,1996,shortly after competing (参加比赛) in his second Olympic Games,Lance was faced with the worst news. Medical tests showed that he had a cancer. Doctors told him that he only had a 40% chance to live. With two operations,Lance was not sure that he would ever ride a bicycle again. Luckily,the operations and treatments were greatly successful. In February,1997,the doctors announced (宣布) that Lance was a healthy man again.

    Just five months after the treatments,Arm?strong was back doing what he loved—-cycling. He began a strict training timetable with hopes of a comeback. His goal was to compete in the 1999 Tour de France,which is thought to be the world's hardest bicycle race―a 23-day cycling competition through the mountains and fields of France.

    Lance went on to win the Tour de France for five years. This is thought to be the greatest achievements in sports history. His success is not just about cycling races,but winning at life itself.
