课余，我爱制作空模。从小学开始，已经有了三四年的历史。

After class, I love making empty models. It has been three or four years since primary school.

一架模型飞机只有三十厘米左右长，可要玩好它还真不容易，尤其是火箭模型和薄膜飞机的制作。就以制作火箭模型来说吧，首先，得把木头割成机身的大概形状，然后用锉刀锉，使之成为流线型，这样，在空中飞行就能减少阻力了。为了做好这些，我常常手上磨出了泡，胳膊酸得端不住碗。一次，我制作机翼时，用左手紧紧压住2毫米厚的木板，右手握紧美工刀，使劲往后一划，“啊呀！”我不禁大声尖叫起来，旁边正埋头苦干的杨莹一看，瞪着大眼叫道：“哇！好长一个口哦，这回许楠挨刀喽！”说完，她马上陪我到医务室要了块邦迪，并涂了点红药水。那滋味可难受啦！

A model airplane is only about 30cm long, but it's not easy to play it well, especially the making of rocket model and film airplane. To make a rocket model, first of all, you have to cut the wood into the approximate shape of the fuselage, and then use a file to streamline it, so that you can reduce the drag in the air. In order to do this, I often have blisters on my hands and my arms are too sore to hold the bowl. Once, when I made the wing, I pressed the 2mm thick board tightly with my left hand, held the art knife tightly with my right hand, and stroked back vigorously, "ah!" I can't help but scream loudly. Yang Ying, who is working hard beside me, looks at her and shouts with wide eyes: "Wow! What a long mouth! This time, Xu Nan was stabbed! " After that, she immediately accompanied me to the infirmary to ask for a piece of Bondi, and painted a little red potion. It's hard!

当然，吃了很多的苦头，最终能够去参加比赛，还是值得的。比赛，不仅有趣，而且能让我学到更多的知识，同时，它使我的课余生活丰富起来。

Of course, after a lot of hard work, it's worth it to be able to compete in the competition. Competition, not only interesting, but also can let me learn more knowledge, at the same time, it makes my after-school life rich.

去年我去区里比赛火箭，真是终生难忘。

Last year I went to the district to compete with the Rockets. It's unforgettable.

“下一个，许楠。”听到裁判的指令，我便拿起火箭，胸有成竹地来到发射架前，并小心翼翼地装上导火线，然后夹住。我拿着发射器，仰望天空。“三、二、一，开始。”裁判一声令下，我用力按住按钮，只听“刷”的一声，火箭直冲蓝天，展开双翅在空中飞翔。我扔下发射器，去追火箭，我一边追一边抬头望着，一不小心，被一块大石头绊倒了。我连忙爬起来，脚又酸又痛，只好一瘸一拐地向前走。突然，我喜出望外：火箭在远处的草丛中！我高兴得忘了酸痛，飞奔过去。可不巧又碰到一个浅水塘，我也顾不得绕行，直趟过去，又直趟回来，裤腿全湿透了。

"Next, Xu Nan." Hearing the referee's instructions, I picked up the rocket, came to the launch pad with confidence, carefully installed the fuse, and then clamped it. I hold the transmitter and look up at the sky. "Three, two, one, start." At the referee's command, I press and hold the button, just listen to the "brush" sound, the rocket goes straight to the blue sky, spreads its wings and flies in the air. I dropped the launcher and went after the rocket. I looked up as I ran after it. Accidentally, I tripped over a big stone. I got up in a hurry, my feet were sore and painful, so I had to limp forward. Suddenly, I was overjoyed: the rocket was in the grass in the distance! I was so happy that I forgot about the pain and ran away. Unfortunately, I ran into a shallow pond again. I didn't care to make a detour. I went straight to it and came back. My pants were all wet.

那次比赛，我获得了一等奖。看着获奖证书，我把苦、酸、辣都忘了，剩下的只有甜。

I won the first prize in that competition. Looking at the award certificate, I forget the bitterness, sour and spicy, and the rest is only sweet.

怎么样，同学们有意学习制作空模和参加比赛吗？我可以尽点微薄之力。

How are you doing? Do you want to learn how to make empty models and compete? I can do something modest.
