请你结合上表,写一篇英语短文,谈谈自己的看法.
In the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games Chinese athlete Liu Xiang dropped out of the race due to his foot injury, which led to a heated discussion among people across the country.
According to a survey conducted by Sina Website, about 34% of the people think an athlete should quit the race when injured since health is much more important than a gold medal; While nearly 20% of the netizens believe that an injured athlete should hold on to the end instead of giving up halfway. They regard the sport field as a battlefield in which every athlete should fight for the honor of his or her country in spite of any difficulty.
In my opinion, it’s a right choice for Liu Xiang to choose to quit the race. For one thing, nothing is more important than health and sports doesn’t mean sacrificing one’s health for a gold medal; for another, after Liu Xiang recovers fully, he still has many chances to realize his dream.
热点4：奥运会获奖运动员的高薪问题
近几年，奥运会获奖运动员的高薪问题引起了广泛的社会关注。有些人支持这种做法，认为运动员们付出了很多努力，应该得到回报；有些人则持反对意见。请你就此写一篇100词左右的英语短文并发表自己的看法。
In recent years, the topic whether it is fair for athletes to pocket large sums of money has aroused more and more discussion.
Those who support giving sportsmen high salaries think that athletes have won a great reputation for our country in the Olympic Games. What’s more, athletes must undergo painstaking physical and psychological training. Besides, they offer a lot of encouragement to young people to take part in physical activities.
However, some people have different ideas. They consider that athletes do little to boost the national economy directly. Thus they should not receive so much money.
I believe that they should get high salaries, considering all the efforts they have made.

Dear Mr. Wang,
We’re so pleased that you are willing to share our views.
In the course of the general revision, what we need is solid foundation. As you know, we didn’t learn well enough in the first two years, so please slow down and make sure we have really mastered something. Besides, we need a little more time to think for ourselves. As for those important points which also make us confused, would you please give us more practice in case we forget? Meanwhile, we need your instruction, for example, in how to write in natural English. I still have another request: assign us less homework in order that we can do it more efficiently.
