17、t Marathon(马拉松)- 4 -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 aheadI remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P.E. class, the teacher required us to run laps and
18、then hit a softball, I didnt 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
19、about the battle against my own body and mind. A test of wills!The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldnt even find the finish line. I woke up sweating and nervous, but ready to prove something to myselfShortly after crossing the start line, my shoe laces (鞋带) became untied. So I stopped
20、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 againBy mile 21, I was starving!As I approached mile 23, I could see my

One is never too old to learnCSteven Stein likes to follow garbage trucks. His strange habit makes sense when you consider that hes an environmental scientis
25、t who studies how to reduce litter, including things that fall off garbage trucks as they drive down the road. What is even more interesting is that one of Steins jobs is defending an industry behind the plastic shopping bagAmericans use more than 100 billion thin film plastic bags every year. So ma

Eyeing these headwinds, plasticbag makers are hiring scientists like Stein to make the case that their pr
27、oducts are not as bad for the planet as most people assumeAmong the bag makers arguments: many cities with bans still allow shoppers to purchase paper bags, which are easily recycled but require more energy to produce and transport. And while plastic bags may be ugly to look at, they represent a sma
28、ll percentage of all garbage on the ground todayThe industry has also taken aim at the product that has appeared as its replacement: reusable shopping bags. The stronger a reusable bag is, the longer its life and the more plastic-bag use it cancels out. However, longer-lasting reusable bags often re

Garbage Collection and Waste ControlDThere are a lot of reasons why people calling 911 might not be able to tell operators which floor theyre on in a high-rise building. They could be injured or simply confused
33、. Yet precious minutes are wasted when emergency personnel have to search a building to find a person in need. With a new app called Sensory, emergency responders soon may be able to use a callers smartphone to locate his exact position in a building. Columbia University researchers William Falcon a
34、nd Henning Schulzrinne created Sensory using a two-step process. First, they used all existing smartphone features that help narrow down a callers location. All iPhones produced after 2014 already include GPS and altimeter(测高仪) that can help emergency responders determine if a person is outdoors or
35、inside a building. But when it comes to tall buildings, just knowing a persons altitude may not be enough,because the distance between floors changes from one building to another.So Falcon and Schulzrinne analysed the plans of figuring out the average distance between floors in residential(住宅的)build
36、ings and office buildings among more than 1000 buildings in New York City. They tested their app in 63 experiments in five high-rise buildings and found that it could find a callers location within two floors with about a 91 percent accuracy.In a survey conducted by Find Me 911 this year, dispatcher
37、s(调度员)said that they regularly received calls from people in need who often couldnt share their location. They sometimes accidentally give the wrong address or floor number. Some callers are too young to know their address. Dispatchers also received calls from those who are deaf or have hearing prob
38、lems and they often couldnt hear the operators questions.The new Sensory app could help shave precious minutes off the time it takes first responders to get to those calling for help. And it could make the difference between life and death.32. The new app Sensory can be used to _.A. provide emergenc
39、y measuresB. speed the connection to 911C. locate emergency callers accuratelyD. improve the function of smartphones33. What can the Sensorys first step help emergency responders do?A. Make use of a smartphones sensors.B. Detect whether a caller is indoors.C. Combine GPS and signal strength.D. Help
40、callers speak clearly and accurately.- 7 -34. What does Paragraph 4 really want to tell us?A. The reasons for failing to get exact location.B. The basic information about emergencies.C.
