This weekend a marathon took place in Salzburg, the city where I’m living. I admired the runners who ran 42.2 kilometers if they finished the course. I’ve never run for more than half an hour, so I’m amazed that some people manage to keep going for over four!
At university I play korfball. This is a team sport with eight people on each team. The aim is to shoot the ball into the hoop(篮圈), which is like basketball hoop, only higher! All players get a chance to attack and defend during the game and it’s very fast-paced.
When I started korfball, I wasn’t very good at it. I could throw and catch but I wasn’t very fast on my feet. Shooting was also difficult for me. Moreover, you often have to shoot on the move in korfball, and I found it hard to balance and shoot straight while running backwards away from my defender!
However, I really enjoyed the sport and made friends in the club, so I attended training twice a week. Two years later I am in the first team for my university and have played in many matches. This just shows if you train hard, you can succeed.
Running is difficult because you have to make yourself willing to keep going. I used to get really out of breath while running and I didn’t feel good at all! Now I actually enjoy going for a run along the river in Salzburg, feeling my muscles(肌肉) working and breathing in the fresh air.
Challenging exercise is always rewarding. Hiking is fun because all the hard work—walking uphill—comes at the beginning of the day. Then at the top of the mountain you can enjoy the view and some well-earned chocolate! At the end of the day you feel like you’ve really achieved something.
I will never be a marathon runner, but I would like to try a 10-km run sometime, or perhaps even a half-marathon. Seeing how happy the runners were as they crossed the finishing line made me want to have that feeling—the months of training paying off as you achieve your goal.
【1】How did the author feel about running the marathon at first?
A.Tough. B.Strange.
C.Enjoyable. D.Exciting.
【2】Why does the author think challenging exercise rewarding?
A.It helps him sleep well. B.It gives him a sense of achievement.
C.It helps him lose weight. D.It makes him become a marathon runner.
【3】What does the passage want to tell us?
A.The meaning of keeping going.
B.The ways of doing sports.
C.The importance of regular exercise.
D.The benefits of running the marathon.

The next time you attend a social function or go to a place where people meet and interact, take note of the number of people who have adopted the same gestures and posture---the way you sit or stand--of the person with whom they are talking. This “carbon copying” is a means by which one person tells the other that he is in agreement with his ideas and attitudes. By this method, one is non-verbally (非语言的) saying to the other, “As you can see, I think the same as you, so I will copy your posture and gesture.”
This unconscious (无意识地) mimicry is quite interesting to observe. Take, for example, the two men standing at the hotel bar. They have mirrored each other’s gestures and it is reasonable to assume that they are discussing a topic upon which they have the same thoughts and feelings. If one man uncrosses his arms and legs or stands on the other foot, the other will follow. If one puts his hand in his pocket the other will copy and this mimicry will continue for as long as the two men are in agreement.
This copying also occurs among good friends or people of the same social position and it is common to see married couples walk, stand, sit and move in very similar ways. People who are strangers, however, try hard to avoid holding mutual(相互的) positions. The significance of carbon copying can be one of the most important non-verbal lessons we can learn, for this is one way that others tell us that they agree with us or like us. It is also a way for us to tell others that we like them, by simply copying their gestures.
If an employer wishes to develop immediate friendliness and create a relaxing atmosphere with an employee, he needs to copy the employee’s posture to achieve the end. Similarly, an up-and-coming employee may be seen copying his boss’s gestures in an attempt to show agreement. Using the knowledge, it is possible to influence a face-to-face encounter by copying the positive gestures and postures of the other person. This has the effect of putting the other person in a receptive and relaxed frame of mind and he can “see” that you understand his point of view.
【1】What is the best title for the passage?
A.Carbon Copying---Showing Agreement B.Developing Non-verbal Communication
C.How to avoid Carbon Copying D.Proper Social Behavior
【2】What is "carbon copying" according to the passage?
A.To adopt identical gesture of others. B.To repeat what others have said.
C.To show agreement with others. D.To mock others.
【3】In which of the following groups is carbon copying NOT frequently seen?
A.Married couples B.People not familiar with each other.
C.Good friends. D.People of the same social position.
【4】What should an employer do to created a relaxing atmosphere for an employee?
A.Be polite. B.Avoid copying the employee’s gesture.
C.Be helpful. D.Copy the gesture of the employee.
