Bonnie Blair had a gift for skating.Poverty, unfortunately, is often a hard
taskmaster.Despite her success as a young skater in America, her family lacked the
funds to send her to Europe to compete internationally.
But fortune can smile in different ways, and a friend of her father organized a
fundraising (筹款) effort in her hometown that allowed her to go abroad and compete
on the 19821983 World Cup circuit.
The young and confident Blair faced her first challenge when she appeared at her
first Olympic Winter Games in Sarajevo 1984.To her great disappointment, she failed
to win a single medal.Her first gold and the first glimpse of her genius came at the
1988 Winter Olympics in Calgary, Alberta.To the electrifying (激动人心的) cheers of
the audience, Blair set a new record, and picked up her first gold, in the 500meter
race.She finished in style, beating the defending champion by just 0.1 seconds, and
also picked up a bronze in the 1，000 meters.This was a tremendous feat for an
athlete who had lost four years before.
In 1992, at the Albertville games, she won the 500 meters and 1，000 meters,
becoming the first woman to win backtoback gold medals in the same event.
Blair reached the high point of her career at the Lillehammer games in
Norway.She continued her winning streak by picking up the gold in the 500meter race
for the third time in a row, but her crowning glory came when she won the 1，000
meters with a margin of 1.38 seconds, the best in the history of the Olympic Winter
Games! She now had the record for medals in women's events with five golds and one
bronze.
She retired at the age of 31, but before doing so she set another record in the
American 1，000meter race.Starting with almost nothing, this woman reached the
heights of glory in just 12 years.

Ⅲ.阅读七选五
Last Sunday I was thinking about the difference between successful people and
those who don't achieve anything significant.I made an interesting discovery.This
difference may at first look obvious, but the fact is quite the opposite. 1
Everyone has a purpose behind their actions.If they don't, they wouldn't take
action. 2 When they take action, at the back of their minds they think about
success that this action is going to bring them.
___3 What's the purpose behind your actions？Do you work to thrive(蓬勃发
展) or to survive? Do you go to work to feed your family or to create an amazing
更多资料添加微信号：hiknow_007 淘宝搜索店铺：乐知课堂lifestyle?
Different purposes will result in completely different life experiences.People who
work to survive are the ones who fear that some unexpected bill will arrive.They go to
bed worrying about money and unimportant things.They hate their employment but
don't quit because they doubt their own ability to create something greater.I know this
kind of feeling because I was like that once.That's a very uncomfortable state to be in
because you are constantly worried about insignificant things. 4 Therefore, you
cannot achieve anything great.
Now there are some people who don't accept the “Life is hard” story and they are
fueled by an entirely different purpose.
They work to thrive. 5 They have a beautiful vision and they take constant
action to make that vision a reality.
A．And they don't think about why something cannot be done.
B．Such an attitude invites great opportunities to you.
C．It lies in what motivates people to take action.
D．So let me ask you a few questions.
E．And this makes you take even more or better quality action.
F．This state does not allow you to be creative.
G．But successful people have a completely different purpose behind their
actions.
【语篇解读】 每个人的行动背后都有一个目标。但成功人士在他们的行
动背后有一个完全不同的目标，他们为成功而采取行动。
1．C [联系上句意思以及下段第一句 Everyone has a purpose behind their
actions.可知选项C符合语境，能够连接上下文，故选C。]
2．G [由前面两句和后面一句When they take action，at the back of their
minds they think about success that this action is going to bring them.“当他们
采取行动的时候，他们在内心里思考的是这个行动将会带给他们的成功。”可知，
此处讲的是成功人士的目标，所以选项G符合语境。]
3．D [根据下文作者提的问题可知，D项“所以让我问你几个问题。”符合
语境。]
4．F [根据 That's a very uncomfortable state to be in because you are
constantly worried about insignificant things.“那是一个让人非常不舒服的状态，
因为你总是担心微不足道的事情。”可知F项“This state does not allow you to be
creative.”符合题意，其中“state”是提示词。]
