Good afternoon, principal, teachers and all students. It is my 1      (honorable) to be here to give a talk to all of you. I have studied in this school for five years.

I once read a book Rare Air: Michael on Michael   4         (write) by the greatest basketball player in the history, Michael Jordan.

In order to join the NBA, he put in every effort to strengthen his muscle, to improve his skills 6             training hard. Because of his efforts, he successfully entered the NBA.

However, he did not stop his training. 7             , the training was even stricter,      8             prepared him to deny(否认) the statement released by the public, “Michael is a weak guy!” While the criticism against him diminished(减少；减小；缩减), 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 also mainly for his spirit of persistence. While we admire his spirit, we can follow(追求；追逐) his spirit as well. Michael should be our example; we ought to learn from him. As/So long as(只要) we work hard, nothing is impossible.
