Stepping on the yellow leaves of the trail and wrapped in the chrysanthemum fragrance along the way, Autumn shanshan came late and knocked on the door of the season. The early autumn sky, blue and clear, less floating clouds, less bright and dazzling, more leisurely and slow quiet and calm, not dazzling, not ostentatious, no longer ever-changing, no longer cloudy and uncertain. Autumn is not the end of the fallen leaves, nor is it the ruin of a broken flower, she has faded the autumn heat, she is fruitful, and the cold of winter is hidden here.
Three autumn leaves can be released, February flowers can bloom, and October has come to an end. At 12:00 on October 29th, the 5th "Sunshine Cup" Tree Climbing Competition of our school was held in the grove in front of the Art Education Center. This year's competition is open to all students, a total of 214 students from various colleges to participate, the competition is divided into speed climbing, leisure climbing, throwing bean bags three items, speed climbing projects are only for boys to carry out, leisure climbing, throwing bean bags are set up in two groups of men and women, the competition method is a group competition. In order to do a good job in the preliminary publicity of this competition and let more students understand and enter the tree climbing project, a tree climbing experience time was set up from October 27 to 28, which was guided by the professional teachers of the Quality Development Center to encourage students to actively participate and have the courage to try.
Speed Climb test participants use a tree climbing system with safety devices to climb a preset route from the ground to a tree about 10 meters high. It is a timed race that takes the fastest time to reach the end of the route, and the runner who finally rings the bell wins. The race requires participants to find the most efficient climbing route to reach the finish line and to avoid ropes hooking branches and causing them to break or damage trees. The leisure climb tests the contestant's ability to use the friction knot provided by the race on a rope as a protection and climb vertically up the tree. The height of the men's race is 10 meters, while the women's group is 8 meters. The event is a time trial with a closing time of 1 minute, and the one who completes the fastest time wins. Throwing bean bags requires the contestant to stand in the predetermined throwing area within 3 minutes of the specified time to throw the bean bags, two targets in four targets, and two targets to throw in different throwing areas.
Before the start of the competition, Mr. Li Yan of the Quality Development Center explained the rules of the competition and the safety matters that need to be paid attention to for the students, "We need to wear our safety equipment, including our half-body seat belts and helmets, which are the top priorities to protect our safety, before we climb, we must take out these fragile and easy-to-fall items on our bodies, such as mobile phones, keys, etc., to be put down in advance or handed over to the staff for safekeeping." After putting on the safety equipment, hang up our ropes, start to climb upwards, speed climbing mainly with the help of ropes and trees themselves, and then quickly climb up, ring the bell in the shortest time, the shorter the time, the higher the score ranking", Teacher Li Yan at the same time as the referee of this activity, according to his professional knowledge for many years, combined with the details that are easy to ignore by the previous participants, analyze the difficulties and skills of each project, and give you a patient and profound lecture.
Before the start of the competition, the contestants were all gearing up and jumping, and everyone's face was full of confident smiles. After Mr. Li Yan and the students organized the referee to take their places, the competition immediately began, the contestants put on the protective gear after waiting by the tree, with the referee's order, the contestants with two arms, legs bent, hands and feet together, launched a charge to the bell at the top of the tree. Li Jie from the College of Food and Environment has achieved excellent results in this competition, he is holding the mentality of trying to participate in the competition, but in the competition to stimulate their potential, climbed to the finish line with a bang, rang the bell of victory; among them, Yuan Lujing from the Quenching Business School stopped in the middle, under the encouragement of everyone, she held her breath, step by step and finally reached the top, although beyond the competition time, she bravely took that step, broke through her own limits, and overcame difficulties in the tree climbing competition. The meaning of challenging yourself is vividly reflected in this moment. The climbing project not only tests the strength and limb coordination ability of the participants, but also tests the participants' grasp of their own center of gravity, only if the center of gravity is close to the trunk, there will be a more stable power output, and there will be a more labor-saving upward climb. In the end, Li Jie, Feng Chenlong, and Li Zepeng of the College of Arts and Media of the College of Food and Environment won the top three in the speed climbing project; Duan Hao of the School of Intelligent Engineering, Wu Jiaxuan and Bai Yulong of the School of Art and Media won the top three in the men's group of the leisure climbing project; Liu Yaping, Wang Yijun, and Li Yarong of the School of Art and Media won the top three in the women's group of leisure climbing.
Aiming, waving your arms vigorously, letting go, the whole set of movements flowing smoothly, the bean bag with the rope steadily passed through the branches of the tree, landed on the other end of the tree, and the rope drew a perfect arc in the air that was unforgettable for a long time. Compared with the strong sense of power brought by the previous two projects, the bean bag throwing project brings people a sense of beauty, precision and elegance. Guo Yaxin has tried many times without throwing the bean bag into the effective scoring area, she gradually became frustrated, under the patient guidance of teacher Li Yan and the encouragement of the students on the spot, she slowly mastered the trick, when the bean bag was separated from her hands for the first time, everyone gave her affirmative applause, this uncompromising spirit is worth learning, for herself, this is not a victory? Three points, five points... When the contestants hit each division, it is not difficult to see the joy of youth on their faces, and this joy reflects the youthful vitality that youth exudes all the time. When Teacher Li Yan announced the winner, the cheers of the winners are unforgettable memories after the game. Finally, Wang Xuewei, Du Xinqi of the School of Economics and Management, Su Jiaying of the College of Food and Environment, and Ji Zeru of the Quenching Business School won the top two places in the male and female groups of the throwing bean bag project respectively.
From scratch, from not daring to constantly trying, challenging yourself, affirming yourself, and surpassing yourself in this tree climbing activity is undoubtedly the best meaning of the activity. When you climb the treetops, you not only overcome your inner fears, but you can enjoy the tranquility of the sky, cross the shackles of the soul, open a window for your own thoughts, and experience the beauty of life and nature.
