参考答案

The famous person I am going to tell you about is Li Ning, a retired Chinese gymnast, billionaire entrepreneur, and the founder of the eponymous sportswear company Li-Ning. He was also the final torch relay runner at the 2008 Summer Olympics held in Beijing and ignited the cauldron in the Bird’s Nest stadium.

我要告诉你的运动员是李宁，一位退役的中国体操选手，十亿富翁，并且还是同名运动公司-李宁的创始人。他也是2008年北京夏季奥运会火炬接力的最后一棒，并点燃了鸟巢体育馆的主火炬。

I first heard about his name when I watched a gymnastics competition with my father. After seeing the Chinese athlete make a mistake in the rings and lose the medal, he said nothing like this would happen if Li Ning were on the court. This article is from Laokaoya website. He then told me about his glorious career. In 1982, he won six of the seven medals awarded at the sixth World Cup Gymnastic Competition, earning him the title “Prince of Gymnastics.” He then procured six medals again at the 1984 Summer Olympics.

我第一次听说他的名字是在跟我父亲一起看体育比赛的时候。在见到中国运动员在吊环项目上失误，进而痛失奖牌之后，他说如果李宁在场的话就不会发生这样的事情。他随后告诉我这个人光辉的职业生涯。1982年，他赢得第六届世界体操锦标赛七枚奖牌中的六枚，为自己赢得体操王子的称号，随后他又在1984年的夏季奥林匹克运动会上再次赢得六枚奖牌。

His legend continues after he retired from competition in the 1980s. He founded a company in his own name, selling sports footwear, apparel, and accessories. After thirty years of development, his firm has grown into one of China’s most prominent sports goods manufacturers and directly competes with international brands like Nike and Adidas. He has sponsored a wide range of Chinese sports games, both renowned and unknown ones, and employed many retired athletes to guarantee their basic life needs.

他的传奇故事在20世纪80年代退役之后得以延续。他用自己的名字成立了一家公司，售卖运动鞋、衣服和配件。在30年的发展之后，他的公司已经成长为中国最着名的运动用品生产商之一，并直接与阿迪、耐克等国际品牌竞争。他赞助了各种各样的知名或者不知名的中国运动比赛，并雇佣了许多退役运动员，为他们提供基本的生活保障。

I admire him because of his unparalleled achievement as an athlete and a businessman. Until now, no other gymnast’s accomplishment can match his record, let alone achieve success in the competitive business world.

因为他作为运动员和商人所取得的无可比拟的成就，我很佩服他。直到现在也没有其他体操运动员的成就能够与他匹敌，更不用说在商界取得成功了。
