7、travellerCA driverDA designerMost people choose to take it easy after they retire, but Wang Guilan, an old lady from Liaoning Province, is definitely not one of them. She only started running at the age of 50, as a way to keep in shape, but soon realized it was her passion. She ran her first maratho
8、n in 2004 and hasnt stopped since. From 2005 to 2017 she completed the annual Beijing Marathon thirteen times, and this year she set a new record, becoming the oldest person to ever complete the 168-kilometer marathon. So, how does a 70-year-old stay in good-enough shape to complete a marathon while
9、 many people cannot? As a matter of fact, Wang runs at least 20 kilometers every day from Monday to Saturday, and on Sunday she runs some more alongside the members of her long-distance running club. She prefers running on mountain roads in her hometown, but in winter, when the weather doesnt allow
10、it, she runs on ordinary roads. Wang is also a fan of mountaineering, and participated in the International Mount Taishan Climbing Festival, where she managed to rank 27th out of thousands of participants. She once participated in an extreme challenge, where she had to run 208 track laps while stayi
11、ng awake for 48 hours. Remarkably, Wang has suffered almost no injuries to her knees or ankles over the years, which she attributes to her difficult childhood that hardened both her body and spirit. The only serious problem is the cataracts (白内障) affecting eyes, which is why she completed some of th
12、e marathons with the help of a headlamp. Wang is a firm believer that age is just a number, and plans to continue running marathons and enjoying the sunset of her life as long as her health allows.4Why did Wang Guilan get down to running initially?ABecause she wanted to keep fit.BBecause she had a p

The concrete used to construct shopping malls, offices, and apartment blocks, along with the material we use to build roads co
16、nnecting them, are largely just sand gravel glued together. The glass in every window and smartphone screen is made of melted-down sand. And even the silicon chips inside our phones and computersalong with almost every other piece of electronic equipment in your homeare made from sand. And what is t
17、he problem with that? Our planet is covered with it. Huge deserts from the Sahara to Arizona have numerous dunes(沙丘) of the stuff. Beaches of coastlines around the world are lined with sand. But believe it or not, the world is facing a shortage of sand. How can we possibly be running low on a substa
18、nce that seems essentially limitless? Sand, however, is the most-consumed natural resource on the planet besides water. People use some 50 billion tons of aggregatethe industry term for sand and gravel, which tend to be found togetherevery year. Thats more than enough to blanket the entire United Ki
19、ngdom. The problem lies in the type of sand we are using. Desert sand is largely useless to us. The overwhelming mass of the sand we harvest goes to make concrete, and for that purpose, desert sand grains are the wrong form. Shaped by wind rather than water, they are too smooth and round to lock tog
20、ether to form stable concrete. The sand we need is the more angular(棱角分明的) stuff found in the beds of rivers, lakes and the seashore. The demand for that material is so great that around the world, riverbeds and beaches are being laid bare, and farmlands and forests are torn up to get the precious g

33、irst time, I started to listen to things Id never listened to before, like the drums. _17_ For the first time I started to really appreciate the power of the bass guitar, and the huge part it played in music. How was it possible that Id never really heard it before? I started to pay attention to wha
34、t all the different instruments were doing and it blew my mind. _18_ It was richer and more fascinating, and I started to appreciate it so much more than I had ever before. I found that becoming a creator, rather than a consumer, turned me from a receiver into a producer. _19_ I started to collect s
35、tories, moments, feelings, quotes, and jokes. Eventually, I did reach my dream of being on MTV. Music taught me a lot about being a creator. The world is so full of stuff that its easy to sit back and just consume it. _20_ It quickly makes you aware of your shortcomings and your lack of knowledge. Y

I was working in a local wood factory. It was dangerous, back-breaking work that paid very _21_ . In the year I had wor
38、ked there, only four other people hadnt quit and been _22_ with new faces, for there was no other work for them to find to _23_ our families. On this day the _24_ werent working and all of us were covered in sweat and sawdust. When I looked around, every face I saw looked angry and _25_ . Abruptly,
39、a voice called out, “Hey! There is a/an _26_ in here.” A lost little deer wandered through the open loading bay doors, cowering in between the huge stacks of wood. All of us stopped to seek for her as she _27_ looking for a way out. Now most people here hunt deer for meat in the fall, but also treat
40、 them with great _28_ during the rest of winter months. Therefore, all of us were soon _29_ working together to free this little deer. By _30_ off all the other routes we were able to guide her and _31_ her back to the open door. We watched as she _32_ out of the building and back into the woods. Th

When meeting with difficulties or new thi
44、ngs, dont step back. Rather, figure out _37_ you are frightened of and do it _38_ (continuous). If you are a salesman, afraid of talking to people personally or over the phone, now, instead of _39_(feel) scared and concerned about your failure, spend at least five minutes a day to pick up the phone
45、and make a call. Although someone may hang up on you, dont stop on _40_ first try! Eventually, you can look at fear in the eyes, saying, “Go on, and I am not scared!” Your confidence will increase significantly in this way. Recent _41_(survey) show that starting with a hobby also encourages us to fa
46、ce challenges, like cooking, sewing, gardening, painting and so on. Whatever it is, _42_ (believe) it is a good chance to try new things.
