浙江省杭州学军中学10-11学年高二上学期期中试题

Two runners stand side by side at the starting line of a race. Both look very strong and fast. 41　 one runner speeds ahead and wins the race. The other falls behind.

Some athletes can reach great　 42　 such as the achievement of an Olympic gold medal. Others never live up to their　 43 . What kind of　 44　 before a race or another event makes the　 45 ?

Everyone knows that athletes work out to strengthen their　 46 . But research shows that strengthening the mind may be just as　 47 . Careful study indicates that the best athletes win　 48　 because they think they can win.

Thinking positive thoughts seems to give possibility for　 49　 in sports. People who say “I know I can do this” to themselves over and over often find they have the　 50　 to win. On the other hand, people who think “I can’t win” often　 51 ,

One procedure that helps many athletes is creating　 52　 in the mind. They are told to think of each　 53　 they must make to win. Some use pictures that are more fanciful (富于幻想的). One skater liked to　 54　 a star bursting inside her,　 55　 her with energy. Another athlete who wanted to feel　 56　 pictured himself as a　 57　 floating in the air.

Next time you want to do something well, try training your　 58　 to help you. Perhaps a teacher or another instructor can help you plan your training. If you imagine yourself doing better, you may soon see　 59　 in what you　 60　 can do. Positive thinking and pictures created in your mind can help you win!
