王教授认为如今中小学“三好生”的评选存在只重视学习成绩的现象。为了做“三好生”，学生把大量的时间花在学习上，没有时间休息和进行体育活动，这不利于学生的身心健康，因此，他建议在中小学废除“三好生”评选制度，此举引发很大争议。请根据漫画的内容和你对这种现象的认识，用英语写一篇题为“The problems of 'Three Merits Student'”的短文。

Once I spoke at a high school．After the speech，the principal asked me to see a special student．An illness had kept the boy home，but he had expressed an 36  in meeting me，and it would mean a great deal to him．I 37 ．

   He was Matthew．When he was born，the doctor told his parents that he would not live to

see five，then they were told he would not 38 it to ten．Now he was thirteen．He wanted tomeet me because I was a gold-medal weight lifter, and I 39 about overcoming obstacles(障碍)and 40 for my dreams．

    I spent over an hour talking to Matthew．Never did he  41  ．He spoke about winning andsucceeding and seeking his dreams．42 ，he knew what he was talking about．He just talked about his 43 for the future，and how one day he wanted to 44  weight with me．

    When we finished talking，I went to my briefcase and  45  out the first gold medal I won and put it around his  46 ．I told him he was more of a  47  and knew more about success and overcoming 48 than I ever would．He looked at it for a while．then took it off 49 handed it back to me．He said，“You are a 50 ．You earned that medal. 51 when I get to the Olympics and win my own medal，I will show it to you．”

   Last summer I got the news that Matthew had passed 52 and a letter Matthew had written me a few days before：

Dear Rick，

    My mom said I should send you a thank-you letter for the picture you sent me．The doctors are 53 to tell me that I don't have long to live any more．But I still 54 as much as I can．

  I told you that in the future I Was going to the Olympics and win a gold medal．But I know now I'll 55．But I know I'm a champion，and god knows that too．When I get to Heaven，

God will give me my medal and when you get there，I will show it to you．

  Thank you for loving me．

                                          Your friend，
