'This kid never gives up!'| 张梦秋教练:这孩子就是有股不服输的劲儿


Zhang Mengqiu admits she was a slow learner when she first hit the slopes six years ago. Her determination and persistence to succeed, however, paid off at the Beijing 2022 Paralympic Winter Games on Saturday.

张梦秋承认6年前,当她刚接触高山滑雪项目时,自己学动作很慢。但她对成功的坚定信念和永不言弃的精神,在北京2022冬残奥会上得到了回报。

Zhang won China's first gold medal in para Alpine skiing by winning the women's Super-G standing at the National Alpine Skiing Centre on Sunday. France's Marie Bochet claimed silver,and Alana Ramsay of Canada taking bronze.

3月6日,在国家高山滑雪中心,张梦秋在残奥高山滑雪女子超级大回转(站姿)比赛中摘得金牌,这是中国代表团在本届冬残奥会高山滑雪项目中的首枚金牌,法国选手玛丽·博歇获得银牌,加拿大选手阿兰娜·拉姆齐获得铜牌。

 


Zhang has already bagged two medals at the Beijing Winter Paralympics, after winning silver on Saturday in the downhill standing.

继5日在本届冬残奥会残奥高山滑雪项目女子滑降(站姿)比赛中获得银牌之后,张梦秋在本届冬残奥会上已经获得了两枚奖牌。

"I'm so excited and so happy," said Zhang, who will turn 20 on Wednesday.

马上就要20岁的张梦秋表示:“我现在感觉特别开心、激动。”

Zhang faced stiff competition from Bochet and Ramsay, and the Chinese skier admitted that she was nervous after seeing her rivals' times.

面临着来自法国选手博歇和加拿大选手拉姆的强大竞争压力,张梦秋承认她在看到对手滑雪的时候很紧张。

"I kept a close eye on them, and yes, I skied under pressure," she said.

“我一直密切关注着她们,确实,我滑得时候压力很大。”

"But I think winning the silver medal really boosted my confidence for future races."

获得银牌之后,张梦秋表示:“今天的比赛让我有了信心,后边的比赛把正常水平发挥出来,就没问题了。”

Zhang, who has motor dysfunction as a result of cerebral palsy, was introduced to Alpine skiing in 2016 and selected to the national team a year later. Because of her physical disadvantage, Zhang's reaction speed is slightly slower than others and needs to put in extra hours in practice to master the sport's skills.

2016年,因患小儿脑性瘫痪导致身体具有一定运动功能障碍的张梦秋第一次接触高山滑雪,并在一年后被选入国家队。因为身体原因,张梦秋的反应速度比其他人慢,别人一个小时就能学会的动作,她需要花两三倍的时间才能掌握。

"This kid never says die or gives up during practice and competitions," said Zhang's coach, Xie Anhui. "She has that type of personalityandbelieves success will eventually come one day."

教练谢安惠在接受媒体采访时曾表示:“她非常要强,不怕苦,只要安排了计划就一定完成,一遍一遍去做,直到达到我的要求。这孩子就是有股不服输的劲儿!”

Indeed, Zhang's slow start and physical challenges did not stop her from making rapid progress.

虽然起步晚、反应慢,但这些都没有阻挡她飞速进步的步伐。

Two years after becoming a national team member, she began to shine at international competitions, winning numerous major titles, including at the Para Alpine Skiing World Cup series.

进入国家队后的两年,张梦秋开始在国际赛场上大放异彩,取得了残奥高山滑雪世界杯等国际大赛6枚金牌。

Now, Zhang is already eyeing more glory over the coming days.

现在,张梦秋要在接下来的几天继续冲击奖牌。

"I hope to perform to my usual level in the following competitions," said Zhang, who will participate in the women's slalom, giant slalom, and super combined.

“我希望在接下来的比赛中发挥出自己的正常水平。”张梦秋即将参加残奥高尚滑雪女子回转、大回转、全能的比赛。

Her message to other athletes and people with disability is simple: "Just work hard!"

当记者问到她想通过这个冠军给人们传递怎样的价值观时,她说:“想让更多人知道,只要努力,就会有收获。”

China's Zhang Wenjing, who took bronze in the women's Super-G sitting on Saturday, heaped praise on her teammate's achievements, saying: "Mengqiu and I are close friends and we stick together all the time. We go up to the mountainsto train together, and we hang out together in our leisure time. I will learn from her and hopefully make progress under her inspiration."

在3月6日夺得高山滑雪女子超级大回转(坐姿组)铜牌的张雯静,对她的队友表示祝贺:“我和梦秋是好闺蜜,天天黏在一起,我们会一起上山训练,休息时间一起出去玩。我会向她学习,在她的激励下取得进步。”

"It is a milestone and a huge breakthrough," Zhang Wenjing added. "It has taken so much effort. We all cheered for her after she won the gold."

“这是一个里程碑式的突破。”张雯静补充道,“这需要很多努力,梦秋获得金牌的时候我们都在为她欢呼。”
