答案文稿：

Describe a famous athlete you know

You should say: 

Who he/she is

How you knew him/her 

What he/she has achieved

And explain why he/she is famous

Thinking about this topic, a well-known athlete who springs first to my mind is non-other than the late Kobe Bryant.

Kobe Bryant is a black American professional basketball player who played in the NBA for more or less than two decades or twenty years. He was the former shooting guard of the Los Angeles Lakers who became one of the reasons why his team got back-to-back championship titles and became the MVP several times.  On the hard court, Kobe’s gift on basketball is indeed undeniable. Through his established organization, he has already taught millions of aspiring NBA players across the world.

Moreover, aside from his skill on the ball, what makes me impressed about him is his words of wisdom that he shared when he was still alive. Kobe Bryant is the man behind the phrase “Mamba Mentality”. This means never quitting or giving up in every setback  each of us is facing.

Indeed, Kobe Bryant is not only famous because of his basketball actions but also his inspiring words.

Despite the fact he is gone now, I would forever keep in my heart the Mamba Mentality.  I might not be able to see him again play in the NBA, but surely that his legacy will remain among us forever.

If I will have a chance, I would like to thank him for the inspiration and aspiration he has given to me. Maybe it’s impossible right now but I hope he knows how much impact he has left on me.
