答案

One possible version:
Give Up Or Not?
In the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games, the world-famous 100-meter huddle athlete Liu Xiang quit the race beyond expectation, which stirred up a debate among students.
The majority of the students hold the view that Liu Xiang made the right choice. If it hadn’t been absolutely necessary, he wouldn’t have quit. Giving up doesn’t necessarily mean weakness. Instead, giving up sometimes is a kind of wisdom and calls for courage. If Liu Xiang hadn’t dropped out, he could have suffered a more serious injury and left the running track forever, which no one would want to see.
In contrast, about 35% of the students hold the different opinion. They feel that Liu Xiang’s withdrawing from the 110m huddle disappointed the whole nation. What we expect from Liu Xiang is not a gold medal but his strong will. Even if he did not achieve his goal, he would win the respect of all.
In my opinion, it is wise of Liu Xiang to have quit the race. If his ankle had gotten injured again, how could he render more service to our country in the future? Let’s wish him a promising future.
