六、书面表达（参考范文）
The story of Yu Gong tells us that perseverance is the key to success. In my opinion, persistence helps us overcome difficulties. For example, when I struggled with math, I kept practicing every day and finally improved. Similarly, athletes train hard to achieve their goals.
Some people give up easily, but I believe challenges make us stronger. Even small efforts, like studying for 30 minutes daily, can lead to big progress. Let’s learn from Yu Gong and never lose hope!
