A world record is every athlete's dream,but the hard-won records of a few years ago are mostly just today's qualifying times.Roger Bannister's famous four-minute mile of 1956has been beaten by nearly 15seconds,while almost an hour and twenty minutes has been taken off the women's marathon since.1953.‘Faster,higher,stronger',is the Olympic motto,and today's competitors continue to push back the boundaries of what the body can achieve.But one wonders if this can continue.
77.E
The last forty years have seen many important technological advances.For example,since the introduction of strong flexible,fiberglass poles,over a meter has been added to the pole vault record.There have also been important developments in the design of the running shoe.And while a shoe won't actually make someone run faster,modern shoes do mean many more miles of comfortable,injury-free training.
78.C
Pushing back the limits now depends more on science,technology and medicine than anything else.Athletic technique,training programmes and diets are all being studied to find ways of taking a few more seconds off or adding a few more centimetres to that elusive world record.It seems that natural ability and hard work are no longer enough.
79.B
The research to find more efficient ways of moving goes on.Analysis of an athlete's style is particularly useful for events like jumping and throwing.Studies show that long jumpers need to concentrate not on the speed of approach,as once thought,but on the angle their bodies make with the ground as they take off.However,the rules governing each sport limit advances achieved by new styles.For instance only one-footed takeoffs are allowed in the high jump.
80.D
In the future,it should be possible to develop a more individual approach to training programmes.Athletes will keep detailed diaries and collect data to help predict the point when training becomes overtraining,the cause of many injuries.If athletes feed all their information into a database,it may then be possible to predict patterns and to advise them individually when they should cut.

79.答案B.信息匹配题.根据本段"Analysis of an athlete's style is particularly useful for events"可知,本段讲研究个人运动风格,对应B Research on individual styles improves performance.
80.答案D.信息匹配题.根据本段"it should be possible to develop a more individual approach to training programmes"可知,本段讲开发适合个人的训练项目,对应D Personalized programs will help.
点评 信息匹配题解题技巧:第一、先题后文.先看题再看文章能够将更多简单的题先做出来,当你发现简单题全部处理完毕之后,剩下的难题可以再重新回到文章当中再去找那些已经被挑剩下的段落.所以不管怎么样一定是先题后文,稍后再文题同步或先文后题.第二、关键词定位(key words positioning)和同义替换(paraphrasing).其实阅读只考两件事,一件事情是简单的:看到什么,定位什么,选择什么; 另外一个则是通过定位确定这个位置,然后再进行一个切换之后发现原来这个东西就是另外一个东西.
