To be honest, I don't exercise much. I don't know why, for others, a simple physical examination is my natural enemy.
Nevertheless, I am usually keen on sports, such as basketball, volleyball, gymnastics, diving, badminton, table tennis and so on. Among them, table tennis is my favorite. Although small and exquisite, it is played all over the world. China's table tennis is also in the leading position in the world, which is why I like it very much. There is always an unspeakable sense of pride and relief. Deng Yaping, Liu, Kong, Ma Lin, Wang He and Wang Nan are all my favorite table tennis players. From them, I saw the beauty of table tennis power and sports. Let me feel the endless fun of sports. So when I was in physical education class, I chose table tennis without hesitation, hoping to learn more about it.
Although I have been in contact with table tennis since I was a child, and I have indeed studied it systematically, it was in this year's physical education course selection.
This year, our study, theory and actual combat practice alternated. After a year, the level of table tennis has improved a lot, and I have a preliminary understanding of the rules of table tennis.
We first learned the basic rules of table tennis. In the next class, we learned to serve, block and forehand attack in turn. I have an average sense of the ball, and pushing the ball just exercises my ability in this respect. The teacher demonstrated, from holding the racket, catching the ball, body posture and playing ball.
After class, I will practice catching the ball and holding the racket in the dormitory. In the next class, I carefully imitated the teacher's actions and asked my classmates for advice, which gradually strengthened my perception of the earth and stopped being afraid. The skill of the ball has also improved slowly. From the blind catch in the past, I learned to rub the ball, pull the ball, hit the straight ball and serve the spin ball. I remember one time, Zhao Jugang and I tried to pull the serve. At first, we didn't cooperate well and played well. The classmates and teachers next to us patiently gave us guidance, pointed out our wrong actions, helped us correct them and showed them to us. After practice, we gradually become familiar with it and become more and more fluent.
By the middle of this term, the teacher asked us to play round robin. Because table tennis can only be played once a week, it can't be played well when it comes to competition, and the results are not satisfactory when it comes to contact with experts. Different students play different ways, some are good at attacking, some like to make a diversion, and some are good at serving, with varied patterns. Often confused, often have been eliminated before finding a feeling. As far as I can remember, Zhao Jugang and I played many times, but we lost every time. He is patient and hardly makes any mistakes, but I can't. I can't stand it at the critical moment. Once I played ball with Lu Jingyun, his serve was difficult to catch, and I couldn't adapt. Besides, I lost quickly. In that team competition, I lost twice as the second singles, which eventually led to the defeat of the whole competition.
Although I lost badly in these competitions, I learned a lot. Later, I carefully summed up my experience, watched others play and practiced hard, but I still adjusted my state.
In the fourteenth week, our most important single-loss elimination match, the teacher said that there were many accidental factors in the lottery before the game. As a result, I was unlucky enough to win the championship and play with Zhang Maoming. Even if I beat him, I will play against Li Jiaqi. Finally, I withstood the pressure and defeated Zhang Maoming 3-2, but my physical strength was exhausted. Then I quickly lost to Li Jiaqi. Missed the quarterfinals. With my failure, all the key games of this semester are over.
After a semester, my level has improved a lot, especially my forehand rotation is too strong for many people to adapt to, and the key time is often a magic weapon to win by surprise. Now let me talk about my feelings. I don't think table tennis consumes a lot of physical strength like basketball and football, but it also needs a peaceful mind. No wonder every time watching a football match, commentators and coaches always remind players to keep a peaceful mind, not impatient and not afraid of losing. I feel that regardless of the training process or the competition, selfish thoughts should be ruled out. Since you are playing, don't think about unimportant things such as homework and movies, and play wholeheartedly. Don't care too much about whether your movements are natural and unrestrained, and don't be timid because you are afraid of losing points, afraid to try to learn new ways of playing, and afraid of losing face. When Olympic champions make mistakes, their usual practices are not necessarily perfect. Whatever you do, don't be afraid of failure, be self-motivated. Although we are not geniuses in this field, we can still achieve good results through hard work. Like me, physical education has no talent, but I persisted and finally successfully completed the exam of this course.
The table tennis class is over, and now I feel very sad. I will continue to practice when I have time. Because through this year's study, I really realized the sports beauty of table tennis. It is also a way to exercise and improve one's quality. As the national sport of our country, table tennis is something that everyone in China should learn.
Finally, I want to say to Teacher Duan that you are really a good teacher, and you have taught us a lot, especially the truth of being a man. Although you are just a physical education class, the professionalism shown by the teacher has made me tremble. In table tennis class, a warm greeting and a ball for others will always be fixed in my heart. Previous teachers didn't take sports seriously, but Mr. Duan was different. She is not only strict with herself, but also strict with herself. If we want to do it, we must do our best. Her words will always inspire me and will not be interrupted with the end of our table tennis class.
