　　When she looked ahead, Florence Chadwick saw nothing but a solid wall of fog. Her body was numb(麻木的). She had been swimming for nearly sixteen hours. Already she was the first woman to swim the English Channel in both directions. Now, at age 34, her goal was to become the first woman to swim from Catalina Island to the California coast.

　　On that fourth of July morning in 1952, the sea was like an ice bath and the fog was so thick that she could hardly see her support boats. Sharks swam toward her lone figure, only to be driven away by rifle shots. Against the frigid grip of the sea, she struggled on--hour after hour-while millions watched on national television.

　　Alongside Florence in one of the boats, her mother and her trainer offered encouragement. They told her it wasn't much farther. But all she could see was fog. They urged her not to give up．She never had…, until then. With only a half mile to go, she asked to be pulled out.

　　Still thawing(使变暖和) her chilled body several hours later, she told a reporter,“Look, I'm not excusing myself, but if I could have seen land I might have made it.”It was not fatigue or even the cold water that defeated her. It was the fog. She was unable to see her goal.

　　Two months later, she tried again. This time, despite the same dense fog, she swam with her faith intact (完整无损的) and her goal clearly pictured in her mind. She knew that somewhere behind that fog was land and this time she made it! Florence Chadwick became the first woman to swim the Catalina Channel, eclipsing(超越) the men's record by two hours!

1．Why didn't Florence swim across the Catalina Channel for the first time?

[　　]

A．Because she was too tired to go on swimming.

B．Because the fog was so thick that she couldn't see her support boats clearly.

C．Because she couldn't see the goal on land.

D．Because the sea water was too cold.

2．What does the underlined sentence mean?

[　　]

A．She had never been so hopeless.

B．She had never thought of giving up.

C．She had never seen such a thick fog.

D．She had never swum across the Channel before.

3．Which of the following is NOT true?

[　　]

A．Florence Chadwick spent less time swimming across the Catalina Channel than men.

B．Florence Chadwick succeeded in swimming across the Catalina Channel in September, 1952.

C．People had to use guns to drive away some fresheating animals in the sea.

D．No women but Florence Chadwick were able to swim the English Channel in both directions.

　　It was a cold winter morning．Half asleep at the train station, I stared into the distance, 　　1　　 for the train to take me to my 　　2　　 in Boston．The world was quiet．The very few people were in the street bar, 　　3　　 their coffee and chatting．．

　　Reaching into my pocket as the 　　4　　 was approaching, my numb hand searched for the ＄20 bill to pay my fare．The pocket was 　　5　　!I searched through my bag and then I felt 　　6　　．Unless the money dropped from the sky, I'd be 　　7　　 there．

　　“Thank you, but no, I can't．”

　　“　　12　　 it－go!” The man pushed me 　　13　　 the train．I bought a round-trip ticket, and he refused the change I 　　14　　 to give him back．I did not know what to say－a million thoughts raced through my mind, yet I stood 　　15　　．

　　For the train ride I was silent．I began to see the world through 　　16　　 eyes．That man made a difference with such a simple 　　17　　．

　　A week later I was at the train station again, with an extra＄20 　　18　　 I saw the man．And there he was．

　　Failing to refuse, he said, “Just remember to do the same for someone in your shoes some day．” I smiled, 　　20　　．

　　The elderly man is my hero．For many, heroes are famous, but my hero is a giving stranger who taught me a lesson in life．I will never forget his kindness．

　　In his speech addressed to the students of Tsinghua University on Nov．16, 2005, California Gov．Arnold Schwarzenegger told them of his early experience as a weightlifter．

　　“…Now, I remember the first real workout(训练)I had．Eight miles away from my home village in Austria there was a gymnasium, and I rode there on a bicycle and trained for half an hour, because they said that after half an hour you should stop, otherwise, your body would get really sore(疼痛)．But after half an hour I looked at my body, and nothing had happened．So I said,‘I'd better work out for another half an hour．'So I lifted some more．My strength didn't improve; I didn't see the muscles pop out or anything like that, so I trained for another half an hour．Then I left the gym and rode home, but after the first mile, I got numb(麻木；失去知觉)－I couldn't feel the handle of the bicycle anymore－and I fell off the bike．I got up and tried it again．After another few yards．I fell off again．And I tried it three or four more times and couldn't ride my bicycle because my body was so numb and my legs felt like noodles．

　　The next morning when I got up, my body was so sore that I couldn't even lift my arms to comb my hair．But I learn a very important lesson－that pain means progress．Pain is progress．Each time my muscles were sore from a workout, I knew that they were growing and that they were getting stronger…”
