24、We each have a memory. That’s why we can still remember things after a long time. Some people have very good memories and they can easily learn many things by heart, but some people can only remember things when they say or do them again and again. Many of the great men of the world have got surprising memories.
A good memory is a great help in learning a language. Everybody learns his mother language when he is a small child. He hears the sounds, remembers them and then he learns to speak. Some children are living with their parents in foreign countries. They can learn two languages as easily as one because they hear, remember and speak two languages every day.
At school it is not so easy to learn a foreign language because the pupils have so little time for it, and they are busy with other subjects, too. But your memory will become better and better when you do more and more exercises.

27、 A month before my first marathon, one of my ankles (踝关节) was injured and this meant not running for two weeks, leaving me only two weeks to train. Yet, I decided to go ahead.
I remember back to my 7th year in school. In my first P. E. class, the teacher required us to run and hit a softball. I didn't do either well. He later told 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. It was all about the battle against my own body and mind. It was a test of wills.
The night before my marathon, I dreamt that I couldn't even find the finish line. I woke up sweating (出汗) and nervous, but ready to prove something to myself.
The next day, the Marathon started.
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.
By mile 21, I was quite hungry. As I approached mile 23, I could see my wife waving a sign. She is my biggest fan.
I was one of the final runners to finish. But I finished. And I got a medal. In fact, I got the same medal as the guy who came in first place had.
Determined to be myself, move forward, free of shame and worldly labels (世俗标签). I can now call myself a "marathon winner".
【1】A month before the marathon, the author ____________.
A.was well trained B.felt excited C.made up his mind to run D.lost hope
【2】Why did the author mention the P. E. class in his 7th year?
A.To show the support of his teacher. B.To tell the readers a funny story.
C.To show he was not talented in sports. D.To share a valuable memory.
【3】How was the author's first marathon?
A.He made it. B.He stopped halfway.
C.He got the first prize. D.He walked to the end.
【4】What does the story mainly tell us?
A.A man ones his success to his family support.
B.A winner is one with a great effort of will.
C.Failure is the mother of success.
D.Soon learn, soon forgotten.
28、Read the passage and fill in the blanks with proper words(在短文的空格内填入适当的词,使其内容通顺,每空格限填一词,首字母已给)
Most of you have found the game in newspapers. Usually it has 15 letters and starts with C. Now that you have all these hints (提示), can you tell what it is? The answer is a "crossword puzzle(纵横字谜) ".
You may not be familiar with it, but the game is certainly p【1】 in the US. First invented in 1913 by a newspaper journalist named Arthur Wynne, crossword puzzles soon became part of the country's well-known culture. Books and video games were made about crossword puzzles. D【2】 were even put on trains for players to look up the words. And over 100 years later, crossword puzzles are still loved by American people.
At the end of last month. The New York Times published its 1【3】 puzzle in its history: a 50x50 square with 728 hints that was five times the size of the newspaper's usual puzzles. It may take even skilled puzzle solvers days to finish it.
This kind of love for a game may be hard to understand, but Merl Reagle, one of the most famous crossword creators in the US, explained it, “Crosswords are a dream e【4】 that no one's been able to take." he once told 1 he Washington Post. "The human mind wants a hint".
Hints are the most important part of a puzzle. They lead you r【5】 to the words. In a basic Christmas-themed puzzle, for example, one of the hints could be, “Santa fills it with presents for the children. The word here is “stocking. There can be difficult cultural questions about subjects like Native American history. In order to c【6】 the puzzles, you have to be familiar with the names of places, people, foods and even farming tools. But the puzzle is not just there to frighten players with hard-to-get hints and difficult words. It’s a game after all so fun comes first.
"You want to come up with an idea that's fresh and interesting. And then you want to fill the crossword with as many good, lively, colorful words as you can," Will Shortz, the crossword puzzle editor for I lie New York Times, told Business Insider.
This is why crossword puzzles are not meant to be finished in a rush. put a lot of work into these jokes in the puzzle. I don't want someone to get through it too f【7】 Reagle once told Wired magazine.
