  It's snowing in Beijing!

After lunch, Qiu Desai, a seventh-grade student at Zhongguancun Middle School, put on his skis and ran to a large lawn nearby.

There was a vast expanse of white around, and the soles of the shoes creaked on the thick snow.

  "It's so refreshing to hear this!" He rubbed his little hands and bent down toward the snow.

His body leaned forward slightly, his legs steadfastly exerted force, and with a squeak, he slid out far away.

  In the winter vacation after the "double reduction", there is less homework and more free time, and a lot of freedom is in my hands. How can I spend it without wasting it?

Qiu Desai formulated a schedule and carefully posted it in front of the writing desk: in the morning, get up at 6:30 for a morning run, and then recite English words; at noon, do housework after meals; in the afternoon, exercise for 2 hours.

  "I like running, jumping rope, and learning to exercise with keep. If I say my favorite, it must be skiing!" Desai excitedly painted, "Freestyle skiing aerial skills are the best!"

  Like skiing, and father related.

Desai's father, Qiu Zhaoyi, is a referee at the Winter Olympics.

  "When he was three or four years old, he went to the ski resort for the first time. He was small and timid. I held his hand and took him step by step. Hehe, he learned very quickly." His father once introduced his son to Yang Erqi, a famous ski instructor. When I was an apprentice, I didn't expect this "little guy" to leave the apprentice soon. "I'm very skilled at skating, and sometimes I can't catch up with him."

  Speaking of the most unforgettable event, father and son both thought of a skiing experience.

Qiu Desai, who was eager to try that day, put on his equipment under the guidance of his father, and went to the snow field in a hurry.

He was skiing hard, but he accidentally rushed out of the snow track and plunged into the snowdrift.

Father dashed over and dragged him out of the snowdrift with all his might.

"I heard that he was so tired that he was panting, but he was holding me tightly." After that, Qiu Desai learned that skiing should not only pay attention to skills, but also pay attention to safety and improve physical fitness.

  "Children should let go of 'nurture' and let them grow up with 'pain' and 'happy'." In Qiu Zhaoyi's view, "Family atmosphere is like a piece of soil. Children must fully absorb nutrients in order to grow vigorously."

  In the study of Qiu Desai's house, there is a row of bookcases, and there are sports, nature, history, and science.

"Look, there is no TV at home, but there are quite a few books, and he gradually became interested in books. As long as he can concentrate on reading, skiing, and sports, it is enough."

  Next to the bookcase, there is a projector.

"I downloaded a lot of exercise videos, he did core movements or balance exercises, we corrected mistakes from time to time, let him gradually improve his physical fitness." Qiu Desai's mother said.

  In the Spring Festival of 2018, Qiu Zhaoyi was unable to accompany his family because he had to complete the refereeing task of the Pyeongchang Winter Olympics.

  During the Spring Festival this year, Qiu Zhaoyi, as the referee of the Beijing Winter Olympics, could not accompany his family, but Desai understood his father very well.

"Dad is contributing to the Winter Olympics and the country! He is amazing, and I'm very proud." Desai said, when the winter vacation is over, Dad should be back, "I want to spend a meaningful winter vacation and see you again. Give it to Dad as a present!"
