My First Marathon(马拉松)
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 either 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”.

【语篇解读】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了学生穿校服的几个好处。1. has/will have 考查时态。句意:当学校里的每个学生都穿校服时,就不会有人担心时尚问题。根据从句中谓语动词wears(一般现在时),可推知设空处也需用一般现在时表示现在的客观情况,故用has;也可认为设空处表示将来的行为,需用一般将来时,故也可填 will have。
2. the 考查冠词。句意:每个人都穿相同样式的衣服。the same为固定短语,意为:同样的。
3. that/which 考查定语从句。句意:在夹克的边上有一块布,这块布在黑暗中会发光。先行词是coth,将先行词代入定语从句后为:The cloth gives off light in the dark. 由此可知,关系词在定语从句中作主语,且先行词指“物”,故填that/which。
4. cycling 考查动词时态。设空处与 walking并列,与are连用构成现在进行时,故填 cycling。
5. easily 考查副词。设空处作状语,修饰动词see,需用副词形式,根据提示词easy可知本题填 easily。

7. improved 考查时态。句意:美国的一项研究发现,在学校引入校服以后,学生的成绩略有提升。根据句中的 found和introduced可知,此处为过去发生的事情,故用一般过去时。
8. to wear 考查非谓语动词作宾语。句意:但是有些学生不想穿校服。want后需加不定式作宾语,故填 to wear。类似的动词还有 decide、refuse、oftr、promise等。
9. connection/connections 考查名词。句意:其他的美国研究表明,校服和学生在学校的表现之间没有联系。no后既可以用名词的单数形式也可以用名词的复数形式。
10. traditional 考查形容词。设空处作表语,且表示主语的特征,故填 traditional。
