[00:01.65]The drawing vividly shows a runner who is making a spurt at the finishing line
[00:07.49]which is also a new point he will start from.
[00:10.47]In the drawing, the runner is running with painstaking effort around the track of a playground,
[00:17.24]sweat pouring down his face.
[00:19.42]On both sides of the runner, there are two poles and a line between them.
[00:24.71]On the ground there are two signs that say "ENDING" and "STARTING".
[00:29.75]The painter wants to tell us that, just like running,
[00:33.34]whatever we are doing, we should never stop making progress.
[00:37.33]First and foremost, it applies to individuals as in such a competitive world everybody is trying to get ahead.
[00:45.57]Furthermore, the country on the world should move forward in terms of politics, economy, and culture
[00:52.30]so that we Chinese as a nation can gain sustained respect from other peoples.
[00:57.56]Examples to prove the view are abundant.
[01:00.83]The most persuasive are the cases of famous athletes like Fu Mingxia and Deng Yaping,
[01:07.06]whose success is gained through non-stop efforts.
[01:10.61]By contrast, a lot of people choose to take a rest to enjoy their small success
[01:16.18]and thus lose the motivation for further achievement.
[01:20.03]In sum, keeping making progress should be the right attitude towards life
[01:25.28]and work for everybody and even for a country
