解析：
【分析】首先明确写作主题为“教会我永不放弃的人”，需遵循思路点拨的要求：第一步点明核心人物（如同学李明），介绍其坚强的品质；第二步叙述人物事迹（如受伤后不放弃、努力学习追赶）；第三步阐述事迹带来的感悟，表达自身决心，全程紧扣“永不放弃”的核心，注意时态以一般过去时为主、人称合理切换，确保条理清晰、行文连贯，符合90词左右的要求。
【解析】写作时，先开篇点题，直接点明教会自己永不放弃的人是同学李明，说明他有坚强的意志；接着叙述李明的经历：去年运动会受伤无法行走，落下课程但不放弃，在老师同学帮助下坚持学习，数月后赶上进度；最后总结感悟，点明他的故事教会自己的道理，表达会向他学习、勇敢面对挑战。写作中运用一般过去时叙述事迹，第一人称谈感悟，结合给定素材句，确保内容充实、结构完整。
【答案】One possible version：
The person who teaches me never to give up
The person who teaches me never to give up is my classmate Li Ming. He is a boy with a strong will and never gives up when facing difficulties.
Last year, Li Ming hurt his leg in a sports meeting and couldn't walk for a long time. He missed many lessons and fell behind in his studies. But he never lost hope. With the help of our teachers and classmates, he studied at home every day, reviewed lessons carefully and asked for help whenever he had problems. After months of hard work, he caught up with us.
His story teaches me that as long as we never give up, we can overcome any difficulty. I will learn from him and face challenges bravely.
