21、Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t love others until you love yourself. Sometimes you’ll hear people say that you can’t expect someone else to love you until you love yourself. Either way, you’ve got to love yourself first and this can be tricky(狡猾的). Sure we all know that we’re the apple of our parents’ eyes, and that our Grandmas think we’re great talents(天才) and our Uncle Roberts think that we will go to the Olympics. But sometimes it’s a lot harder to think such nice thoughts about ourselves. If you find that believing in yourself is a challenge, it is time you build a positive self-image and learn to love yourself.
Self-image is your own mind’s picture of yourself. This image includes the way you look, the way you act, the way you talk and the way you think. Interestingly, our self-images are often quite different from the images others hold about us. Unfortunately, most of these images are more negative than they should be. Thus changing the way you think about yourself is the key to changing your self-image and your whole world.
The best way to defeat a passive self-image is to step back and decide to stress your successes. That is, make a list if you need to, but write down all of the great things you do every day. Don’t allow doubts to occur in it.
It very well might be that you are experiencing a negative self-image because you can’t move past one flaw or weakness that you see about yourself. Well, roll up your sleeves and make a change of it as your primary task. If you think you’re silly because you aren’t good at math, find a tutor. If you think you’re weak because you can’t run a mile, get to the track and practice. If you think you’re dull because you don’t wear the latest trends, buy a few new clothes. But remember, although you think it is so, it doesn’t mean it’s true.
The best way to get rid of a negative self-image is to realize that your image is far from objective(客观的), and to actively convince(客观的) yourself of your positive qualities. Changing the way you think and working on those you need to improve will go a long way towards promoting(提升) a positive self-image. When you can pat(拍) yourself on the back, you’ll know you’re well on your way. Good luck!
【1】You need to build a positive self-image when you _________.
A. dare to challenge yourself

24、When Julie Weiss lost her father, Maurice, in 2010, just 35 days after he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer(胰腺癌), she was heartbroken. “Research for pancreatic cancer is so underfunded, and it made me feel helpless,” she says. “I knew I had to do something.”
So this marathon queen, as she calls herself, did what she knows how to do best: She went running. Having already completed 25 marathons during the previous two years, Julie now promised to run 52 marathons in 52 weeks in honor of her father. After asking people to donate money for each marathon, she set up a website, marathongoddess.com, to collect the donations for the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network (PANCAN), a nonprofit organization.
Julie, 43, began her 52-marathon journey in Rome in March 2012. She focused on pacing herself, often clocking in an hour slower than her best time of 3:47, and decided not to stick to a strict training schedule. “It is a long process and I knew my body recovered quickly from marathon running,” she says, and, anyway, “nothing can prepare you for what you’re about to experience.” When her muscles began to ache, she kept her motivation in mind. “It was like I had angels with me to keep running no matter what,” she says. To stay focused, she’d think of her father. “He did everything big,” says Julie.
Julie finished her 1,362.4-mile journey covering two countries and 18 states in March 2013 at the L. A.Marathon, raising more than $200,000 in the process for PANCAN, which was quite unusual.

D．Because she knew herself well.

A．Devoted and extraordinary.
B．Strict and shy.
C．Friendly but demanding.
D．Helpful but weak.
【4】What is the best title?
A．Benefits of Running
B．A Marathon Queen
C．Running for a Reason
