Reached competition ground, after seeing her, I complain: "This ghost weather is really bored, is this the implied meaning move don't I take the place? Protect a little while forbid to rain even, alas! Alas!!
终于盼到了比赛那天。那是个阴天，一早就没见到太阳，云层低低的，天也阴沉沉的。到了赛场，见到她后，我抱怨道：“这鬼天气真烦人，这不就是寓意着我拿不到名次么？一会儿保不准还要下雨，唉！”
She is laughing to say jokingly however: "You can be gotten! experienced a week, scarcely meets! Yourself strives for can take the place besides, what concerns with weather! What concerns with weather!!
她却笑着打趣说：“你可得了吧！都练了一个星期了，一定不会的！再说能不能拿名次是你自己争取的，和天气有什么关系呀！”
I did not argue with her again, low the head saw plan again, the silent in the heart is meditating a note, also encouraging to oneself ceaselessly. Very fast, be turn for me, I stepped that one pace that moves toward competition ground eventually.
我没有再和她争辩，低下头又把稿子看了一遍，心里默默想着注意事项，也在不断地给自己打气。很快，就轮到我了，我终于迈出了走向赛场的那一步。
The match ended smoothly, I take a stand, sit to the side of her to expect a result. Passed a little while, compere begins to study the position, in my heart secretly insecurity rises, she is smiling to pat the shoulder that pats me however. Should hearing me is third class award when, am I stupefied -- did I win a prize actually? ! She pushs me, say: "Be stupefied what to do, go quickly! " discovery of the ability after getting certificate of merit, my control has been grasped gave sweat.
比赛顺利结束了，我走到台下，坐到她的身边等候结果。过了一会儿，主持人开始念名次，我心里暗暗紧张起来，她却微笑着拍拍我的肩膀。当听到我是三等奖时，我愣住了——我竟然得奖了？！她推了推我，说：“愣着干什么，快去啊！”领到奖状后才发现，我的手心已经攥出了汗。

颁完奖，她神神秘秘地对我说：“把手伸出来！”
I am unidentified so, but darling still handle was extended go out.
我不明所以，但还是乖乖地把手伸了出去。
She drew a small safflower on my the back of hand, say seriously to me: "Send you a small safflower, rewarded you to step that one pace bravely, did the thing that dare not do, and do very well! And do very well!!
她在我手背上画了一朵小红花，郑重其事地对我说：“送你一朵小红花，奖励你勇敢地迈出了那一步，做了不敢做的事，而且做得很好！”
Look at the face of her smilingly, I understood suddenly -- there is a lot of originally in life " not dare " thing, we often are in " me not dare " and " what be afraid of " between hesitant, but it is difficult to want you to be able to be overcome only actually, step that one pace bravely, regular meeting is harvested somewhat.
看着她笑眯眯的脸，我突然明白了——人生中本来就有很多”不敢”的事，我们常在”我不敢”和”怕什么”之间犹豫，但其实只要你能克服困难，勇敢地迈出那一步，就一定会有所收获。(文/李锦姝)
