How Running Helped Me Turn My Life Around
I've never been an athlete. Aside from excelling at all academic disciplines at school, my main goal was to 11 PE at all costs. In my twenties, I went for an occasional yoga or Zumba class, but that was really the summary of all my athletic accomplishments.
That was until the end of 2016, when I was unexpectedly laid off. The 12 of getting a new job soon were not in my favor and 13 thoughts of not being good enough started to kick in. I was feeling quite depressed but pushed myself to go and 14 for the TCS NYC Marathon runners as the course was going through our neighborhood.
However, while being there, I got phenomenal 15 from all the runners, smiling, applauding and high-fivi
ng constantly. Not a runner myself, I thought maybe I could give running a 16 , just to try, to use my neglected gym membership and see where it 17 me. And so I tried. I went to my local gym the next morning and got on a treadmill(跑步机).I was out of breath by minute five, but I 18 down, walked for a bit and then restarted. I came back the next day, hoping to 19 a few minutes longer. By the end of two weeks, I could run for 30 minutes, which was a huge 20 .
While I saw my body starting to look more toned, I also noticed my negative thoughts didn't occur that 21 . And it sparked a thought-what if I could set a running 22 and sign up for my first-ever race? I did and races sort of became a new hobby.
In the meantime, I was able to 23 a few freelance(⾃由职业的)projects. They offered me a good 24 ,and, most importantly, the time to work out for the big race. Also, when I was going for interviews, I started to feel very 25 in my abilities, experience and skills.
I got my full-time job 26 at my dream company just a couple of weeks before the half-marathon. Although I got an 27 from overtraining right before the race, I still went for it and still finished within my 28 time.
I still have a long running 29 ahead of me-I'd love to work on my speed, my technique and I dream of r
unning
a marathon outside of the US. Running gives me 30 that I can do anything I set my mind to.

Stuttering(⼝吃)has nothing to do with intelligence. I know this because I stutter. If it takes me a while longer to say a word, it's not because I can't remember the word; it's because the neural(神经的) pathway that transforms words in my head into sounds
in my mouth is wired differently .And differences, of course, are the best way to get negative attention in our society. Taking extra time to get my words out can surely be frustrating, but that's nothing compared to the misery of dealing with people's reactions.
Almost all children who stutter are discouraged from speaking in one way or another. It's usually not as direct as someone walking up to them and saying, "Hey, stuttering kid! Keep your mouth shut!" But when your voice causes adults and peers to snicker(窃笑)or roll their eyes, it's pretty discouraging.
Growing up, I learned to avoid speaking whenever possible. I hated what came out of my mouth, full of awkward
breaks and pauses. I figured whatever future I had, it probably involved a vow of silence.
Today I'm a touring author and comedian. It took me 30-something years to get over stuttering. Did I stop stuttering? No! I couldn't stop if I wanted to. But I stopped wanting to stop. Instead of wasting all my time and energy trying to meet unattainable standards, I learned that it's OK to stutter. And I learned by example. I attended the National Stuttering Association conference and met all kinds of people who stutter-people who didn't hate themselves, who didn't silence themselves. They stuttered, and they were OK with it! I remember watching them and thinking, "That's who I want to be!"
There's a popular saying in comedy: "Your weakness is your strength.” When I first entered my local open-mic scene, I was quickly met with some "smart" guys looking to score a cheap laugh at my expense. I remember introducing myself to one comedian and stuttering on my name, as I usually do. Eager to demonstrate his smartness, he replied, "Is that Nina with five Ns?" "No," I said, "it's Nina with two Ns!" Just like that, I had created a joke as the result of someone making fun of my stutter. To this day, whenever I need inspiration for a new joke, I just think about all the ridiculous comments I get from non-stuttering people. It's a comedy gold mine!
34. It takes the author longer to say a word because she has .
A. a comparatively low IQ
B. trouble in organizing ideas
C. a relatively small brain
D. problems in her neural system
35. What annoys the author most about her stuttering is .
A. the unfriendly reactions of others
B. the difficulty in memorising words
C. her unpromising future as a stutterer
D. her embarrassing pauses during talks
36. The author got over stuttering by ·
A. adjusting her attitude towards it
B. getting help from non-stutterers
C. telling herself constantly to stop it
D. silencing herself whenever possible
37. Paragraph 5 is mainly about the author's ·
A. success as a comedian
B. respect for other comedians
C. resistance to others' strength
D. acceptance of her imperfection

The ancient tale of the Country Mouse and the Town Mouse was only the first to emphasize rural folk's supposed simplicity
when compared with more sophisticated urbanites. However, neuro-scientists announce that, in fact, it is city living that can dull the wits.
The new study led by Dr. Spiers at Nantes University describes how they used a dataset from 4 million people of a computer game, which tests navigating skills by asking players to memorise a map showing the location of checkpoints and then measuring how well players can find them, guided only by their mental map. Dr. Spiers and his colleagues examined the 4 million people from 38 countries, and found that the strongest indicator of a high score was a player's age-older people performed relatively poorly, which agrees with what researchers know about age-related cognitive decline. But the benefit of rural living was strong enough to offset some of that. Data showed that a 70-year-old who grew up in the countryside had the navigational abilities of an average 60-year-old across the dataset.
There is a huge gap between the navigation skills of rural and city people, and the researchers think they know why. Dr. Spiers says that the brain's navigational abilities probably weaken in the less challenging city environment because they are not being used as much. Although cities may appear more elaborate, they also feature more clues to help residents find their way, such as numbered streets. In the countryside, however, one field tends to look much the same as another, so there are fewer external landmarks to help guide the way.
Neuroscientists already know that living and working in more complex environments can influence the function and structure of the brain. Brain scans of London taxi drivers, who have gained an encyclopedic memory of the city's streets, show that they tend to have an enlarged hippocampus-a region of the brain acting as a neural GPS, sensing
position and path on an internal map of the environment.
The harmful effect of city living on navigation is probably most serious in people under 16-18, Dr. Spiers says, because their still-developing brains respond and change the most according to external stimuli. And while people who live in cities with young children should not be alarmed, the study does raise some interesting ideas for urban planners: keep their city designs not so simple perhaps. And for everyone else, it might be an idea to turn off maps on the phone.
38.The study led by Dr. Spiers shows that .
A. the seniors score higher at computer games
B. rural life benefits people's sense of direction
C. participants are better at finding ways in cities
D. the young remember checkpoints better in maps
39.The underlined word "offset" in Para. 2 most probably means .
A. achieve
B. confirm
C. reduce
D. replace
40. What is the purpose of the passage?
A. To introduce a new way of driver training.
B. To expose the drawbacks of living in the urban area.
C. To show the contrast between lives in the country and city.
D. To present environments' impact on one's ability to locate places.
reactions to the online manage
41. What is the best title for the passage?
A. Lost in the City
B. Brain Weakened in Cities
C. Navigating to the Countryside
D. The Negative Effects of City Living
