My First Marathon (马拉松)
A month before my first marathon one of my knees was hurt 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 PE class the teacher asked us to run and then hit a ball I didn’t do either well He later told me that I was not athletic That is to say I was not good at sports
The idea that I was not athletic went with me for years When I started running in my thirties I realized running was a fight against myself not about competition or whether or not I was athletic It was all about the fight against my own body and mind
The night before my marathon I dreamed that I couldn’t even find the finish line I woke up sweating (流汗) all over but I had a strong mind to face the challenge (挑战)
Shortly after crossing the start line my shoe laces (鞋带) became undone So I had to stop to tie them again Not the start I wanted
At mile 3 I passed a sign GO FOR IT RUNNERS
By mile 17 I became out of breath and my knee hurt badly Though feeling very painful I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again
By mile 21 I was quite hungry and thirsty
As I drew closer to mile 23 I could see my wife waving a sign She is my biggest fan She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 am or questioned my cost on running
I was one of the final runners to finish But I finished And I got a medal (奖牌) In fact I got the same medal as the one that the man who came in the first place had
Decide to be myself move forward free of shame and worldly labels (标签) I can now call myself a marathon winner

It’s hard to turn down a tasty banana They taste good and you don’t have to wash them before eating them However British scientists say that the fruit may disappear by 2050
One reason for this is climate (气候) change Scientists at the University of Exeter collected data (数) from 27 countries that produce 86 percent of the world’s bananas They found that climate change has improved growing conditions in 21 of these countries In the past 60 years the average yield (均产量) has reached 137 tons of bananas per hectare (公顷)
However if temperatures keep rising this advantage will disappear Ten of the countries including India the world’s biggest producer of bananas will produce fewer bananas By 2050 the fruit may die out
Shouldn’t bananas grow more easily if it’s hotter outside In fact the perfect temperature range (范围) for growing bananas is between 24℃ and 32℃ If temperatures get too high they will stop growing
Diseases are another danger to bananas Unlike other plants the bananas we grow come from shoot cuttings (茎段) rather than seeds (种子) This means that all banana plants have the same genotype (基型) In other words if a disease is able to kill one plant it could kill them all
One serious disease is called Panama Caused by fungus (真菌) in the soil it spreads easily It has spread across South Asia Africa the Middle East and Australia If one banana plantation suffers from the disease it will take 30 years until it is able to grow bananas again Scientists have yet to find a cure for this disease

Every society has its own ways of saying things One popular expression in the United States is hitting the books It means studying a subject with great effort
A student who hits the books spends long hours preparing for a test They read their books
carefully and then read them a second time and a third time They make sure they know all the material the teacher has offered and prepare for every possible question They study every night

and most children go to school near their homes School in these early years is fun The children

early age for them to hit the books
This situation changes as children become older The subjects become more difficult Students must learn world history math and the life sciences Tests become more common
Pressure is growing for the students to hit the books study hard and advance
However most serious students only really begin hitting the books for long hours when they reach high school
High school students who hope to go on to college must take a national test called the SAT The test has two parts The first part tests the student’s ability with numbers and mathematical skills The second part tests the student’s ability in the English language The SAT test is very important A high school student who gets a high score on the two parts of the test
has a good chance to enter a top American college For this reason many students hit the books
for months to prepare for the SAT
