13、chools, when it comes to a move like that, needing approval from boards and committees.”For Tom Collins, Stepinacs president, the commitment to digital source material was not so difficult a decision.

18、uote by William Purkey, a well-known professor of education, that goes, “Dance like no one is watching, love like youll never be hurt, sing like no one is listening, and live like its heaven on earth.” I seems like the perfect life philosophyand one Ive learned to apply to running over the year.But

19、I didnt always feel this way. In my early days, when I weighed 240 pounds, I ran like everyone was watchingand judging. If I was on a run and saw a car approaching, Id stop and pretend I was looking for something Id lost I bought the high-tech gear and clothes that I thought would make people believ

I really thought that other people cared about my performan

21、ce. The best example of this was a combined, two-lap marathon in Florence, Italy. As I approached the finishing line, the crowd began to cheer. I was surprised.

27、he importance of determination23（8分）In his new show, Evan Ruggiero plays guitar, sings pop standards and shows everybody his fine footwork. What makes all of these especially unusual is that Ruggiero, 24, has only one leg. When he was a 19-year-old musical theater student at New Jerseys Montclair St

28、ate University, Ruggiero had a rare bone cancer in his right leg. Finally his leg would have to be amputated（截）below the knee. Such a setback could have easily ended the career of a less tough person, but Ruggiero, who has been dancing since he was five, now puts the experience into his performance.

29、 His show, The One-Legged Song and Dance Man: Volume 3, explains how he returned to dance just 18 months after the amputation. His dance now relies on the use of a peg leg(假肢),he explains. The secret to his surprising success, he says, was being a stubborn patient who refused to give up on his dance

30、 and performing studies, despite the advice of his doctor. “It was a real setback, but after it was all over, I said, You know what? I need to pick up right where I left off and continue my career, ” Ruggiero said. Ruggiero has come to view his peg leg as an instrument. Tap dancers-theyre always cal

35、anguage are “if only”. I live my life with the goal of never having to say those words, because they convey regret, lost opportunities, mistakes, and disappointment.My father is famous in our family for saying, “Take the extra minute to do it right.” I always try to live by the “extra minute” rule.

36、When my children were young and likely to cause accidents, I always thought about what I could do to avoid an “if only” moment, whether it was something minor like moving a cup full of hot coffee away from the edge of a counter, or something that required a little more work such as taping padding (衬

37、垫) onto the sharp corners of a glass coffee table.I dont only avoid those “if only” moments when it comes to safety. Its equally important to avoid “if only” in our personal relationships. We all know people who lost a loved one and regretted that they hadforegonean opportunity to say “I love you” o

39、 him. I called him and told him I had decided to go to work on my day off after all.I know there will still be occasions when I have to say “if only” about something, but my life is definitely better because of my policy of doing everything possible to avoid that eventuality. And even though it take

40、s an extra minute to do something right, or it occasionally takes an hour or two in my busy schedule to make a personal connection, I know that Im doing the right thing. Im buying myself peace of mind and thats the best kind of insurance for my emotional well-being.1、Why does the writer regard “if o
