the paris olympics closed and everyone thought the olympics were over, but in fact, the paralympics are still being held.

in the paralympic medal table, china currently has 33 gold medals, 27 silver medals and 11 bronze medals, a total of 71 medals, and is undoubtedly far ahead.

in the olympics, we are always surpassed by the united states, but in the paralympics, the united states is not worth mentioning. so far, the united states has only won 8 gold medals and 27 medals, ranking third. the number of gold medals is less than one-third of that of the chinese delegation.

in second place is the united kingdom, which has won 23 gold medals and 43 medals so far, and the gap with china is not small.

however, even though china performs so strongly in sports events, there are very few reports and the public does not seem to care. many people don’t even know that there will be the paralympics after the closing ceremony of the olympics and think that the olympics are over.

when talking about the paralympics, all people can think of is the precious spirit of human beings to strive for self-improvement and not succumb to the tricks of fate. few people appreciate the athletic strength, and the paralympics are indeed not very entertaining.

therefore, some netizens have suggested that the paralympics should be cancelled because they lack viewing value and the government does not vigorously report on them. what do you think?

as one of the grandest global events, the olympics has always been the biggest gimmick and selling point for challenging human limits. the olympics needs to make money, otherwise no one would be willing to host it.

the paralympics, as an affiliated event of the olympic games, does not actually make money, and even requires the olympic games to pay for its support.

in this case, many people have suggested that the paralympics have neither economic value nor viewing value and should have been cancelled long ago.

currently, apart from cctv, there are almost no domestic media platforms that broadcast the entire paralympic games, which is in sharp contrast to the grand occasion of the olympic games that everyone is competing to report.

but i think the paralympics should not be cancelled.

although the paralympics have neither economic value nor viewing value and are not very popular, it does not mean that no one watches them.

those who proposed to cancel the paralympics actually misunderstood the target audience of the paralympics from the beginning. the audience of the paralympics is not ordinary people with healthy limbs, but people with other disabilities.

there is a scary statistic that you may not know. among the world's total population of more than 7 billion, there are more than 1 billion disabled people, which means one in every seven people is a disabled person. there are more than 85 million disabled people in my country, which means one in every 16 chinese people is a disabled person.

this huge group of disabled people needs an event of their own. by watching the normal olympics, apart from being able to marvel at how powerful human beings are, they will also gain more inferiority complex due to their own disabilities.

the emergence of the paralympics has given their lives a shot in the arm. the paralympics has told the world that people with disabilities can also live well through hard work.

the values ​​conveyed by the paralympics are never the limits of human body, but the unyielding will of human beings. some netizens described the paralympics like this: the olympics witness the peak physical limits of human beings, and the paralympics embody the unyielding spiritual will of human beings.

the continued holding of the paralympic games shows the change and progress of social concepts. people with disabilities are also human beings, but they have become disabled due to various misfortunes. they need help but not pity. providing them with normal living facilities, fair employment opportunities, and treating them as normal people is the greatest kindness in the world.

holding the paralympic games and treating them as normal people is the greatest value of the paralympic games, which is far beyond the economic value.
