Once my mother told me a story that in Africa,when an antelope wakes up every morning,the first thing it thinks about is,"I must be able to run faster than the fastest lion,or I will be killed."At the same time,a lion wakes from his dream.The first thing the lion thinks about is,"I must be able to catch the slowest antelope,or I will starve to death."So,almost at the same time,the antelope and the lion get up and start running toward the rising sun.

This is life:full of chances and challenges.Whether you are an antelope or a lion,you must go ahead when the sun rises.For students,it is just the same.If we do not study hard,sooner or later,we will fall behind the other students.At first,I did not know what the word"exam"meant.Later,I knew an exam was a kind of competition.In competitions,there are always winners and losers.As I grew up,I got to know competition well.In one's life,there must be competitions,so people can improve.

Each time I saw children playing games,and heard their laughter,I wished I were that age again.However,I remembered my parents'words:"You must work very hard in order to have a good future."So I picked up my pen and began to study hard again.

I was still not sure what competition really meant.One day,I was taking part in an English-speaking competition.When I went to the stage,I saw other students looking at me kindly.I suddenly knew what competition was.It is not as cruel as my teacher and parents told me.In fact,competition is the opposite:it is kind and necessary.

I learned a lot from realizing this fact.Now I understand more about the world.Competition is important for us all.

我的競爭觀

佚名

媽媽曾經(jīng)給我講過這樣一個故事。在非洲，一只羚羊每天早上醒來想到的第一件事是：“我必須跑得比最快的獅子還要快，否則就會被吃掉。”與此同時，一只獅子從夢中醒來，想到的第一件事是：“我必須抓住跑得最慢的羚羊，否則就會餓死。”所以，羚羊和獅子幾乎同時起床，并開始向著太陽升起的地方奔跑。

這就是生活：充滿著機(jī)遇和挑戰(zhàn)。不論你是羚羊還是獅子，太陽升起的時候，你必須往前跑。對于學(xué)生，亦如此。如果我們不努力學(xué)習(xí)，遲早會落后于其他人。我開始并不懂得“考試”的真正含義，后來我明白了，考試也是一種競爭。在競爭中，總會有勝利者和失敗者。長大后，我對競爭有了深層次的認(rèn)識。人生必須有競爭，人類才會進(jìn)步。

每次，看到孩子們做游戲，聽著他們朗朗的笑聲，真希望自己重新回到那個年紀(jì)。但是，當(dāng)我想起父母的忠告：“你必須努力學(xué)習(xí)，才會有光明的未來。”我又重新拾起筆，開始刻苦學(xué)習(xí)。

我并未真正懂得競爭的內(nèi)涵。直到參加英語口語競賽那天，我才真正弄清什么是競爭。當(dāng)我踏上講臺，看見其他學(xué)生很友善地看著我。突然間，我明白了什么是競爭，競爭并不像老師和父母說的那樣殘酷。相反，它是善意的，也是必要的。

明白了這個道理后，我學(xué)會了很多，也更了解這個世界。競爭對每個人都很重要。

感悟在競爭中學(xué)會長大，是每個孩子的必經(jīng)之路。
