My First Marathon

A month before my first marathon, one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks, leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet, I was determined to go ahead.

I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P.E. class, the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball. I didn't do it well. He later informed me that I was "not athletic".

The idea that I was "not athletic" stuck with me for years. When I started running in my 30s,I realized running was a battle against myself, not about competition or whether or not I was athletic. It was all about the battle against my own body and mind. A test of wills!

The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldn't even find the finish line. I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself.

Shortly after crossing the start line， my shoe laces（鞋带）became untied.So I stopped to readjust. Not the start I wanted!

At mile 3, I passed a sign: "GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!”

By mile 17,I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly. Despite the pain, I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.

By mile 21,I was starving!

As I approached mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan.She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m. or questioned my expenses on running.

I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished! And I got a medal. In fact,I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had.

Determined to be myself， move forward， free of shame and worldly labels（世俗标签），I can now call myself a "marathon winner".

24.A month before the marathon, what happened to the author?

A.He was well trained

C.He made up his mind torun

B.He felt scared

D.He lost hope

25.Why did the author mention the P.E.class in his 7th year?

A.To acknowledge the support of his teacher.

B.To amuse the readers with a funny story.

C. To show he was not talented in sports.

D.To share a precious memory.

26.How was the author's first marathon?

A.He made it.

C.He got the first prize.

B.He quit halfway.

D.He walked to the end.

27.What does the story mainly tell us?

A.A man owes his success to his family support.

B.A winner is one with a great effort of will.

C.Failure is the mother of success.

D.One is never too old to learn.

C

As birth order is clearly one of the many factors that affect personality development, we should pay much attention to it. Big brothers and sisters usually develop leadership early in life, giving orders to later children like their parents. The danger is that if the older child takes that role to an extreme（极端），he or she can become an overbearing adult.

Studies of nearly 300 people have found that firstborns are usually the most strongly motivated toward achievements. This is mainly the result of parental expectations. Research also suggests that firstborn children generally become more conservative（保守的）than other children because they receive most of the parental orders and rules. Used to caring for others, they are more likely to move toward such leadership professions as teaching and politics. Less social and flexible because they become used to acting alone in the very early years, they may have difficulty making close friends.

By contrast, the researchers say later children are more likely to be more relaxed and sociable than the eldest child because their parents are more relaxed. However, later children are often less ambitious（雄心壮志的） and may be uncomfortable making decisions for others， and will seek work that fits their needs. This may help explain why younger children prefer the creative fields such as music, art, and writing. Later children may make good sellers because persuasion may have been the only tool they had to deal with older children. Younger children tend to remain forever "the baby" enjoyable to be around, but at times too dependent on others.

28. What's the meaning of the underlined word “overbearing” in the first paragraph?

A.trying to order others without considering their ideas or feelings

B.being unable to express their real feelings or to do what one really wants

C.preferring the established order of society to change

D.changing easily to adapt to new needs, conditions or ideas

29.According to the passage, what is a younger child more likely to become?

A.A good librarian

C.A good writer

B.A good doctor

D.A good teacher

30.Why Later children may become good sellers?

A.Because they feel uneasy when making decisions for other people

B. Because they are very good at persuading others

C.Because they have great ambition to develop leadership

D. Because they are more relaxed and sociable

31.What's the best title for this passage?

A.Which Is Better: Being the Eldest or the Youngest?

B.Birth Order Factor in Marriage

C.The Relation between Birth Order and Job Success

D. Effects of Birth Order on One's Personality

D

I love winter birds and I love photographing them in snow. I admit that I'm a fair-weather bird watcher. Worse, I'm a lazy, fair-weather bird watcher. I don't like weather extremes, so when it's very hot or really cold, it is hard to get me to leave the comfortable home. In summer, I only photograph hummingbirds（蜂鸟） in my yard， and in winter， I try to only go out on relatively mild（温和的）days. Most of my bird pictures are done within an hour＇s drive of my hometown of Elmira. So it's all about finding a balance that works.

The winter of 2021 was a great period for snowy owls（雪鸮）here in Woolwich Township． One day in early January, I was on my way home from work when I noticed a beautiful snowy owl sitting in a tree right at the crossing. I pulled over to admire him, and then kept heading home unwillingly.

Two hundred meters or so down the road, there were two more snowy owls in a field by a fence, and in the next field over, another on top of a fence post. I couldn't find words to express my feelings at that moment. Thus I rushed home, took my camera and went right back out to get some pictures. It was one of the most magical local birding moments I've ever experienced.

When I'm looking for excellent opportunities to photograph snowy owls and other birds without spending dozens of hours searching for them,I head to the Canadian Raptor Conservancy(CRC) or the Mountsberg Raptor Centre. I've attended so many photo sessions at each of these fantastic places that I've lost count.

32．What factor（因素） has the most effect on whether the author goes out to photograph birds or not?

A.road conditions.

C.weather conditions.

B.personal emotions.

D. time arrangement

33.How did the author feel when he saw the snowy owls on his way home?

A.awkward.       B.excited.

34.What can we learn from the passage?

C.anxious.

D.confused.

A.Photographing winter birds is gaining great popularity.

B.The author prefers to have the pictures done over an hour's drive from his hometown.

C.The author only heads to CRC to photograph snowy owls.

D.There were four snowy owls on his way home, one day in early January.

35.What can we infer about the author?

A.The author only photographs snowy owls.

B.The author can take excellent photos easily.

C.The author makes a living by photographing birds.

D.The author values each chance to photograph birds.

How to Make Friends at a New School
