After lunch, I came to the river and saw a huge crowd of people on both sides of the river. There were so many people like countless little stars on the Milky Way, some with crew cuts, some with braids, Some have black hair, some have white hair... Everyone is wearing their favorite clothes: red, yellow, purple, flower... It's really colorful.
The sun was so hot today that everyone on both sides of the river was sweating profusely. But they didn't put the sun in their eyes. They all stood on tiptoes and stretched their necks, anxiously and patiently waiting for the dragon boat race to come. Suddenly, only the sound of gunshots was heard, and the host gave an order through the sound of firecrackers: "The game begins!" Suddenly, people shouted, like birds eager to try.
After a while, the host shouted in surprise, and everyone looked into the distance in unison. Then, there was another burst of cheers. From a short distance away, I saw small boats rowing one after another. There are so many dragon boats taking part in the competition! With the roar of gongs and drums, the dragon boats are getting closer and closer. Not only are the young players sitting on them, many of them are old people in their fifties. They paddled desperately, racing against time, chasing each other without giving in. That look looked like he was in a duel. I am afraid that if others are one step ahead of me, they will catch up with me. There was also a turbulent situation on the shore. Some people shouted: "Come on, Lezhong Team!" Some shouted: "Come on, Leliu Team!" The shouts shook the sky and the earth.
Time passed by minute by minute, and in a blink of an eye it was already the second half of the event. But someone shouted: "Don't give up, persistence is victory, come on!" Suddenly, people shouted again, cheering them on. The team members finally mustered up the courage, rushed forward hard, rowed forward nimbly, and started their "life and death duel" again.
The birds on the wires were chirping non-stop, as if they were cheering for the athletes; the willow trees on the lawn were dancing, as if they were cheering for them. The water wave baby occasionally flips over the waves to help.
A fierce dragon boat race ended, and the first place was the Lezhong team. This dragon boat race gave me an inspiration: the road of life is tortuous, we must keep moving forward, we must learn the spirit of dragon boat racing, fight bravely, be positive, and work together. As long as we do this, we will definitely become one of the winners. One!
