Common App Essay: A Huge Challenge from Cross-country
来自越野赛的巨大挑战！
Along my growing path in past seventeen years, there were plenty of challenges and setbacks that I have encountered to be crucial and fundamental to my future success. The most valuable and memorable challenge for me was the first time cross-country experience on September 2nd, 2017. This experience deeply affected me to realize the importance of fully preparations, cooperation with other people, and it also motivated my perseverance personality on doing one thing. I suffered; I grew up, and I learnt a lesson from the process of this experience.
在过去的17年里，在我成长的道路上，我遇到了很多挑战和挫折，这对我未来的成功至关重要。
对我来说，最具价值和最令人难忘的挑战是在2017年9月2日第一次越野体验。
这段经历深深地影响了我，使我意识到充分准备，与他人合作的重要性，也激发了我坚持做一件事的毅力。我遭受了;我成长了，我从这次经历的过程中吸取了教训。
First of all, the cross-country challenge enabled me to realize the importance of fully preparation before doing anything. Actually, I didn’t understand cross-country very well before the race, since at first I thought this would be fun and relaxed for me to walk around and enjoy the beautiful sceneries. Therefore, I didn’t realize there were so many steep and rugged mountains that needed me to accomplish. Going downhill was the hardest part for me, that I might get injured easily without enough preparations. I never felt such ache and sore feeling of my toes and legs, since I used incorrect ways- to let my toes reach the ground first, and I didn’t prepare the professional climbing boots instead of a pair of normal sneakers to protect my ankles. Lack of the specialized knowledge and equipments, the challenge from cross-country was more tremendous, and this experience taught me that I must be fully prepared before doing anything, because firm preparations are the cornerstones for later success.
首先，越野挑战使我了解在做任何事情之前充分准备的重要性。
事实上，在比赛之前我并没有很好地了解越野，从一开始我就觉得这很有趣，很放松，我可以四处走走，欣赏美丽的风景。
因此，我没有意识到有这么多陡峭崎岖的大山需要我去完成。对我来说，下坡是最难的部分，如果没有足够的准备，我可能会很容易受伤。
我从来没有感觉到脚趾和腿的疼痛感，因为我使用了不正确的方法——让脚趾头先着地，我也没有准备专业的登山鞋来保护我的脚踝，而不是一双普通的运动鞋。
由于缺乏专业的知识和装备，来自越野的挑战更加巨大。
这次经历告诉我，在做任何事情之前，我必须做好充分的准备，因为坚实的准备是日后成功的基石。
On the other hand, I learnt a lesson from this cross-country challenge that teamwork and mutual help are significant. On the way of climbing the 999 stairs and some very steep paths on the mountains during this experience, my mother and one of her friend were helpful teammates for me to better arrive at the destination. When I was too tired to go ahead, they would provide essential replenishment for me, such as water and chocolates; when I felt a little discouraged under the burning sun and pressure from high mountains, my mother said “the procedure of painfulness is also the procedure of growing” encouraging me to continue the journey. Similarly, when they faced some difficulties, I also lent a helping hand to let them get out of dilemma. This cross-country challenge let me understand that the encouragements, helps and cooperation with teammates are very important to be successful in doing one thing.
另一方面，我从这次越野挑战赛中吸取了一个教训，那就是团队合作和互助是很重要的。
在攀爬999层楼梯和山上一些很陡峭路径的经历过程中，我妈妈和她的一个朋友是我的队友，他们帮助我更好地到达了目的地。当我太累而不能继续前进的时候，他们会为我提供必要的补给，比如水和巧克力;当我在烈日下和在高山的压力下有点感觉绝望时，妈妈说“痛苦的过程也是成长的过程”去鼓励我继续前行。同样，当他们遇到困难时，我也伸出援助之手，帮他们走出困境。
这个越野挑战让我明白了，和队友之间的鼓励，帮助和合作对于成功地做一件事是很重要的。
Lastly, this cross-country challenge also taught me that there would be numerous of obstacles in life, but I must span these barriers as best as I can with determination and perseverance. I remember that the most arduous time was the third part of the race, after climbing two mountains and consuming a large portion of my energy, but I still had to go up to achieve the highest mountain in this race. Facing to the formidable mountain in front of me with countless stone steps and wild branches, I kept climbing up with both of my feet and my hands, even though exhaustion was filled my whole body。
