?You can't imagine how terrible I felt at that time.A month before my first marathon,one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks,leaving me only two weeks to train.Yet,I was determined to go ahead.
?I remember back to my 7th year in school.In my first PE class,the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball.I didn't do either well.He later informed 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,not about competition or whether or not I was athletic.It was all about the battle against my own body and mind.A test of wills!
?The night before my marathon,I dreamed that I couldn't even find the finish line.I woke up sweating and nervous,but ready to prove something to myself.
?Shortly after crossing the start line,my shoe laces became untied.So I stopped to readjust.Not the start I wanted!
?At mile 3,I passed a sign:"GO FORIT,RUNNERS!"
?By mile 17,I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly.Despite the pain,I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again.
?By mile 21,I was starving!
?As I approached mile 23,I could see my wife waving a sign.She is my biggest fan.She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a.m.or questioned my expenses on running.
?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 one that the guy who came in first place had.
?Determined to be myself,move forward,free of shame and worldly labels(世俗標簽),I can now call myself a "marathon winner".

  • 1.As Simon Kindleysides,34,took his first step in the London Marathon in April,he felt as if magic was in the air.
        "As we were walking toward the first mile,we actually started joining all the runners," he said. "Everyone was on the streets,cheering,and that was a magical moment." As time went on,the crowds and other racers spread around.Kindleysides and his team of eight supporters continued walking.
       Kindleysides,who is paralyzed(癱瘓的) from the waist down and typically uses a wheelchair,was equipped with an exoskeleton(體外骨骼) to help him walk.His supporters walked with him to change the batteries in his exoskeleton so he could keep moving.
        In 2013,Kindleysides was diagnosed with a brain tumor (腫瘤) that was growing in a way that pressed on certain nerves,leading to him losing feeling in his legs.He was told he would never walk again.Before his paralysis,the London-based singer and dancer had "always wanted to run a marathon," he said,but he never made the plan to do so - until this year.
        During the London Marathon,the last two miles were the hardest. "At that point,I was exhausted.It was freezing cold,and I was hurting emotionally," Kindleysides said.But he kept going. "I didn't want to let people down.I had a team of eight,and I was raising money for The Brain Tumour Charity," he said. "I didn't want to let them down,myself down,and I thought if I would get this far,I would have to continue." So he continued and made history as the first paralyzed man to complete the London Marathon on foot.
       Then,recovering at home,he shared his accomplishment with his three children. "They used to say I'm the only dad in their whole school who's in a wheelchair,and now they say I'm their dad,the only one who has walked a marathon," he said.
        Kindleysides is training to complete three more marathons next year,including the London Marathon again.

    (1)Why did Kindleysides' supporters accompany him all the way?

    A.To help change the batteries.
    B.To inspire him as a team.
    C.To guide him along the road.
    D.To assist him with the wheelchair.
    (2)What caused Kindleysides' disability?

    A.An operation on his brain for the tumor.
    B.An accident in the previous marathon.
    C.Some nerves produced out of the tumor.
    D.The pressure from the brain tumor on the nerves.
    (3)What partly supported Kindleysides to finish the hardest two-mile race?

    A.The prize money for the winner.
    B.The strong desire to recover.
    C.The kindness to help the charity.
    D.The belief to beat others.
    (4)What can we learn about Kindleysides?

    A.He was once a successful actor.
    B.He is ambitious for joining in London marathons once more.
    C.His children feel a pity for him in the wheelchair now.
    D.He was the first disabled man to complete the London Marathon.
