Why is it said that only sports can give children a perfect personality?

There are only two kinds of children in the world: those who like sports and those who don’t know they like sports yet. Ms. Su’s grandmother was a Japanese orphan, so her family moved to Tokyo, Japan in 1999. When she first arrived in Japan, she and her brother had to register for school. The principal asked: Are you from China? Ms. Su was surprised. We haven\’t submitted the materials yet. How does the principal know it\’s from China? The principal later told her that he could tell by the thickness of their arms. Because her and her brother\’s arms are as thin and tender as bean sprouts, it can be seen at a glance that they rarely exercise, while Japanese students have strong and strong arms because they exercise a lot. These words suddenly surprised Ms. Su. Later, when she was riding the subway in Japan, she paid close attention to the Japanese children. No matter they were tall, short, fat or thin, they all looked strong. This makes Ms. Su very ashamed, but what makes the Chinese people even more ashamed is that over the past ten years, the physical fitness of Chinese children has not gotten better, but has gotten worse. In recent years, Chinese students have suffered sudden death during military training, long-distance running, physical examinations, and basketball playing. They are either overweight or underweight. Their myopia rate is close to 90%. In 2016, only 17% of primary school students exercised regularly. Liang Qichao said: \”Strong young people make China strong.\” Strength is first reflected in physical fitness. China has won more gold medals in the Olympic Games each time, but before the fragile bodies of Chinese children, it would be in vain for us to win all the Olympic gold medals! Recently, a rule of Tsinghua University has gone viral in the circle of friends: starting from 2017 undergraduate freshmen, swimming will be tied to graduation. In other words, if a student cannot learn to swim by the time he graduates, the school will not give him a diploma! Tsinghua University does this because swimming is a necessary means of survival, but it is also an excellent sport. In 2008, Tsinghua University began to resume long-distance running as a compulsory course for students, and students who did not meet the requirements were not allowed to graduate. I don’t know if it’s funny or sad. Just like the long-distance running rules back then, many netizens thought this new rule was “unreasonable” and even ridiculed it. The world of high school academics was even more devastated. They gave \”reasonable\” reasons: When it comes to swimming, boys or students whose families live by the sea have an advantage. Girls have never swum since they were young, so it may be very difficult for them; You have to endure a lot of hardships to go to this school;… If you have never swum since you were a child, then go and learn it; if you think that going to college is a blessing, then don\’t go to college. Zhao Benshan once said a \”famous saying\”: There is only one way to make Chinese football catch up with the world\’s best within 10 years: adding a football subject to the college entrance examination. If sports are really regarded as a subject that requires examinations and is directly linked to graduation, we have no reason to believe that Chinese students will not love sports. Even if you don\’t make children fall in love with sports in the end, you can at least forge a slightly healthier body for them instead of just a dry and boring soul. Someone has sorted out the growth differences between Chinese children and American children: 1-4 years old: basically the same; 5-8 years old: American fathers will take their children to play baseball, while Chinese children begin to indulge in various training classes. 9-12 years old: American children have long regarded sports as a daily routine. Playing ball, running and even fitness are the most popular activities.Love after-school activities; while many Chinese children have already worn glasses, the heavy academic burden squeezes their after-school time, and the enthusiasm for results makes them not want to exercise; 13-18 years old: American children\’s muscles begin to take shape, and their physiques are obvious Stronger than peers in China. Chinese children are working hard for the high school entrance examination and college entrance examination, and sports even completely \”retreat\” in the third year of junior high school and high school to make way for exam preparation. 19-23 years old: Some American children enter college and some work in society, but they all have more free time to exercise and start to enjoy the best years of their lives; while Chinese children finally get rid of the long-term exam pressure and stay in the dormitory , at home, lethargic and \”free\”. Regarding physical education class, many people’s childhood memories are: before class, the math teacher came in and said: \”The physical education teacher is busy, this class will be changed to math.\” There are two kinds of children in the world: one likes sports, and the other doesn\’t know it yet I like sports. But before children have time to develop the sports they like to play, school and family education have stifled their potential. Should we reflect on what went wrong in our education? Whether it is the school, the parents, or the children themselves, there is a deep-rooted \”belief\” in their minds: sports and learning conflict. If you want to study, the goal is to be number one; if you want to exercise, you can, but the goal is also to get a gold medal. In this way, exercise ceases to be exercise; it becomes another form of examination. Our thoughts have always been either/or and never harmonious, rather than inclusive and harmonious development. Therefore, we either train examination machines or competition machines: even if many athletes win gold and silver medals, they still have a miserable life after retirement because they do not have the skills to adapt to society. After the Athens Olympics, someone summarized a resume of a foreign gold medalist: rowing women\’s single sculls champion, a fashion designer, graduated from a German fashion school; women\’s UFO shooting multi-directional champion, occupation is \”agricultural protection\” \”Official\”, who studied agricultural science in college; the women\’s judo champion, who studied French literature in college and is a police officer by profession; the track cycling champion, who is a legal clerk by profession and only started training at the age of 23;…it really makes us ashamed. The true sportsmanship is to deepen the understanding and love of life through sports. Therefore, many foreign athletes are amateurs, while many Chinese athletes try their best and even make a living, which not only imprisons the spirit, but also damages the body. Exercise should neither be a burden in life, nor should it be the only life; on the contrary, exercise is one of the ways we experience life, although it may be the most important one. We think that by urging children to study hard, they can have a perfect life. Although the figure is not very good-looking, at least he has a rich mind, self-discipline and self-confidence. Is this true? If you only know how to solve problems, you will become rigid-minded and do not know how to adapt; if you only know the scores, you will become jealous; if you only know how to simulate the college entrance examination for five years and three years, you will become mentally empty. We do not lack knowledgeable scholars and professors. What we lack are people with sound personalities and full souls. Even if they are at the bottom of their lives, they still enjoy themselves and can even entertain themselves.Enjoy yourself. There is a saying that your face is the image of your soul. In fact, it can also be said: your body is the image of your soul. Body and soul are the two sides of life. Respecting your body means respecting your soul. How can one believe in the beauty of his soul when he can\’t even take care of his own body, and even wants to ruin it? Cai Yuanpei said that perfect personality lies first in sports, and sports are nothing but exercises for the soul. Plato said: God provides two channels for human evolution—education and sports. Education is a channel for people to get out of ignorance, and sports is a channel for people to move toward mediocrity, strength, and self-breakthrough. A teacher once came to the \”Weird Conference\” and told a story about a student who felt that he could not survive, so he took the student to drink, and after drinking, he went to the Workers\’ Stadium to watch football. He said to the students: \”Follow the scolding.\” The students complained: \”I can\’t do it.\” \”If you can\’t do it, the teacher will give you a start.\” As a result, they scolded him for the whole time. After coming out, the student said to him: \”I can\’t do it.\” I have never felt so happy.\” Later, the student bought a league season ticket for Beijing Guoan and gradually got rid of the unhappiness in life. The teacher concluded: \”The stadium is a cure for depression.\” When you feel that life has deceived you, exercise is the greatest compensation that life can give you. Whether you are immersed in sports yourself or just as a bystander, when your body collides and you roar without emotion, your brain produces dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine. The function of these neurotransmitters is to make people feel happy and energetic. Only those who have been baptized by sports can regain their faith in life, and are more likely to have correct views and a sound mind. Forrest Gump\’s intelligence is not as good as ordinary people, but he has a special athletic talent – running. In order to avoid being chased by others, he ran into the university campus and accidentally entered a football game. The coach saw that he could run like no one else, so he was included in the team. As a result, Forrest Gump entered college and became a football superstar in the school. It’s not that you can get into college based on athletic ability alone, but American universities often give preferential treatment to students with sports talents. Regardless of your origin, income, or even intelligence, people with outstanding sports are more likely to become shining stars on campus. What makes people who love sports different is first of all their will to move forward. Like Forrest Gump, as soon as he hears the word \”run\”, even if there are mountains of swords, seas of fire, wolves and tigers ahead, he will avoid it if he can, and rush through if he can\’t avoid it! The second is the awareness of abiding by the rules. Every competition has rules, and every rule is a shackle. The competition is to dance with shackles. The more able you are to adapt to the shackles, the more exciting your dance will be. Finally, exercise can help people go deep into their souls and discover themselves. You never know where your potential is, so let your body tell you. When exercising, listen to the voice from your body, determine where you should go, and release more potential. When you feel confused and at a loss in life, if you haven\’t gotten sick yet, just go to the track and field and run two laps – there is nothing that can\’t be solved by running two laps. If so, run two more laps.
