I got a taste

2、 of that dream in 2011， when my husband arranged for me to ride in a hot air balloon for my birthday。 But the experience turned out to be very dull。 Around that time， I told my husband that I wanted to skydive. So when our retirement community announced that they were having an essay competition and

3、 the topic was an experience of a lifetime that you wanted to have, I decided to write about my dream。In the essay, I wrote about my desire to skydive， stating George Brush Sr。 did it at age 80. Why not me？ I was just 84 and in pretty good health。 A year went by and I heard nothing。 But then at a co

4、mmunity party in late April 2009, they announced that I was one of the winners. I just couldnt believe it。 Inspired by this，I decided to realize my dream， even though some of my family members and my doctor were against it。On June 11， 2009, nearly 40 of my family and friends gathered in the area clo

5、se to where I would land while I headed up in the airplane。 My instructor， Jay, guided me through the experience. The plane was the noisiest one I had ever been in， but I wasnt frightenedI was really justlooking forward to the experience。 When we reached 13,000 feet, Jay instructed me to throw mysel

6、f out of the plane。 When we first hit the air， the wind was so strong that I could hardly breathe。 For a second I thought, What have I gotten myself into？ But then everything got calmer. We were in a free fall for about a minute before Jay opened the parachute， then we just floated downward for abou

7、t five minutes. Being up in the clouds and looking at the view below was unlike anything I have ever felt-much better than the hot air balloon。 I was just enjoying it。Skydiving was really one of the greatest experiences of my life. I hope other people will look at me and realize that you dont stop l

8、iving just because you are 84 years old。 If theres something you want to experience, look into it。 If its something that is possible， make it happen。84岁的我高空跳伞！作为一个成长于19世纪30年代的年轻女孩，我一直梦想着能够驾驶飞机,但是，在当时一个女人来做这样的事情可以说是骇人听闻.2001年，我终于亲身体验了一下那个梦想。作为生日礼物，我的丈夫为我安排了一次热气球旅行。但是那次经历对我毫无吸引力。大约就在那时，我告诉丈夫我想尝试高空跳伞。因

9、此当我们的退休社区宣布要举办一个题为你想拥有的一次人生经历的作文比赛时,我决定写一下我的梦想。在那篇文章里，我写下了我想高空跳伞的愿望，并写到老乔治布什在80岁高龄时曾经做过这件事。那么我为什么不能呢？我才84岁，而且健康状况良好。一年过去了，我没有得到任何回音。但是，在2009年4月底的一个社区聚会上，他们宣布我是获奖者之一，真是令人难以置信。受到激励的我决定去实现自己的梦想，尽管我的几个家人和医生都反对这个想法。2009年6月11日，我昂首挺胸登上飞机,我的将近40个家人和朋友聚集在我将要着陆的地方.我的教练，杰伊，在一旁全程指导我。这架飞机是我所乘坐过的噪音最大的飞机,但是我并不害怕因为

10、我真的是非常期待这次经历.当我们攀升到13 000英尺的时候，杰伊指导我跳出机舱。我们刚接触到机舱外的空气时，风很大我几乎无法呼吸。有一刻，我想,我究竟想得到什么啊?但是接下来一切恢复了平静。我们自由下落了大约一分钟后，杰伊打开了降落伞，然后我们继续向下飘落了大约五分钟.漂浮在白云中，欣赏着下面的美景，这不同于我以往的任何经历比做热气球棒多了。我真心享受这次这种感觉。高空跳伞是我一生中最好的一次经历。我希望其他人能看看我，并且领悟到一个人不能因为自己已经84岁就不再享受生活.如果你想去体验某个事物，那么就去研究它吧。如果它确实可行，那么就让你的美梦成真吧。重点单词:1。 skydive ska

13、y breathe。我们刚接触到机舱外的空气时，风很大我几乎无法呼吸。这是一个主从复合句。when引导时间状语从句，主句中又含有一个由that引导的结果状语从句。so that 意为如此以至于。如：When the football fans saw Beckham， they got so excited that they cried out。当球迷们看到贝克汉姆时，他们激动地大声呼喊.4. look into调查,研究；向里面看;浏览。如：The police are looking into the pearl robbery。警方正在调查这起珠宝抢劫案。He looked into

17、lanned trip to Boise. I had two choices： leave Banner with my husband, or take him with me。 My husband made the decision for me.That is how I found myself on the road with four kids, a baby lamb and nothing but my everlasting optimism to see me through. We took the country roads out of necessity. We

18、 had to stop every hour, let Banner shake out his legs and feed him. The kids chased him and one another。 Theyd get back in the car breathless and energized, smelling fresh from the cold air.We explored side roads， catching grasshoppers in waist-high grass。 Even if we simply looked out of the car wi

20、my disciplining technique。 On an empty section of road， everyone started quarreling. I stopped the car， ordered all kids out and told them to meet me up ahead。 I parked my car half a mile away and read my book in sweet silence。Some road trips are by necessity fast and straight. But that trip with Ba

21、nner opened our eyes to a world available to anyone adventurous enough to wander around and made me realize that a detour may uncover the best part of a journey-and the best part of yourself.绕行的魅力诗人威廉斯塔福德曾经说过，我们更多地是被人生中的绕行路所定义而不是通往目标的那条狭窄的小径。我喜欢这种观点.但是我却是一次偶然的机会才发现了这句话的深层含义。多年以来，我们会从位于西雅图的家开车长途跋涉9个小

22、时去我父母位于博伊西的家。我们出行的方式和大多数人一样：选择最快、最短、最好走的路，尤其是当我一个人带着四个吵闹不休的孩子回家时，他们是讨厌受到限制,对一切事情都有着强烈的看法。自己驾车出行让人感觉有些冒险，因此我把车子开得很快，没有必要绝不停车。我们总是坚持走高速公路，每次到达的时候都会疲惫不堪。但是后来,我们家的小羊羔班纳出生了。就在我们准备启程去博伊西的前几天，他被妈妈抛弃了.我只有两个选择：把班纳丢给丈夫或者带着他上路.丈夫替我做好了决定.于是我就带着四个孩子、一只小羊羔上路了,陪伴我的只有总是帮我渡过难关的乐观主义。出于必要，我们走的乡间公路。每个小时我们都得停下来，让班纳活动活动小

23、腿儿并且喂他吃些东西。孩子们追逐着小羊羔，也追逐着彼此。随后他们会气喘吁吁却又精力充沛地回到车上，全身上下带着外面冷空气的清新。我们在小路上探险，在齐腰高的草丛中捉蚂蚱。即使我们只是从车窗的玻璃看着小猪崽儿跟着妈妈跑来跑去，或者看着鱼儿跃出水面，这样也比之前高速公路上最好的旅程还要棒。这才是生活。这才是新的视野。最后我们来到了我父母家的门前，每个人都出人意料地神清气爽，装满了故事。回程的时候我的胆子大了起来,还创造出了约束孩子们的办法。在一段空旷的路上,孩子们争吵起来。我停下车子,命令他们全部下车，然后告诉他们自己走到前面和我会和。车子开出半里地之后，我停下来,在一片静谧中开始读书.人生中有些

24、路程必然会笔直、迅速。但是那次带着班纳的行程打开了我们的视野，让我们看到了一个任何人都可以去冒险的世界，也让我意识到一次绕行可能会为我们揭开旅程中最美的一段也是我们内心最美的部分.【重点单词】1. detour dit n。 绕道2. confinement knfanmnt n。 限制3. energize endaz vt。 使活跃；供给能量4。 grasshopper grshp n. 蚱蜢;蝗虫5. horizon hraz（）n n. 视野；眼界 【重点短语 / 亮点句式】1。 But it was quite by accident that I discovered the de

36、 likely contributing to fewer injuries。 It does, however, have its own problem.Race walkers are conditioned athletes。 The longest track and field event at the Summer Olympics is the 50kilometer race walk， which is about five miles longer than the marathon. But the sports rules require that a race wa

37、lkers knees stay straight through most of the leg swing and one foot remain in contact （接触) with the ground at all times。 Its this strange form that makes race walking such an attractive activity， however, says Jaclyn Norberg, an assistant professor of exercise science at Salem State University in S

38、alem, Mass。Like running， race walking is physically demanding, she says， According to most calculations， race walkers moving at a pace of six miles per hour would burn about 800 calories(卡路里） per hour， which is approximately twice as many as they would burn walking, although fewer than running， whic

39、h would probably burn about 1，000 or more calories per hour.However， race walking does not pound the body as much as running does， Dr. Norberg says. According to her research， runners hit the ground with as much as four times their body weight per step， while race walkers， who do not leave the groun

40、d, create only about 1。4 times their body weight with each step.As a result, she says， some of the injuries associated with running， such as runners knee， are uncommon among race walkers. But the sports strange form does place considerable stress on the ankles and hips， so people with a history of s

44、tive。B The triathlon is a demanding sport。 Many say that it is a real test of an athletes body and mind. It is difficult because it is three sports in one. It includes swimming for 13. 86 kilometers, bicycling for 180 kilometers， and running for 42. 2 kilometers。 The top triathletes finish all three

45、 events in about 8 hours。 This sport is a real challenge. First, it takes time to train for competitions. Some people spend up to 8 months training for the race. Second， it takes money to compete。 The equipment is not cheap。 Bicycles for this event can cost up to$10， 000. Top-quality swimming gear （

46、用具) and running shoes are expensive。 Third， athletes must have strong minds. It takes willpower （意志力) to push themselves to keep training to reach their goal. The triathlon is a recent sport。 Triathlons began in California in the early 1970s. In 1978, competitors held the first professional triathlo

47、n race in Hawaii. In 1982, this race became famous because of the televised performance of Julie Moss。 It was her first competition. Exhausted, she was running toward the finish line。 Suddenly， 3 meters before the line, she fell down。 She tried to get up, but she kept falling。 She finally crawled （爬

48、) across the finish line. She lost that year， but she tried again. Finally， in 1985, she won。 This was the start of the triathlons popularity。 Today， triathlons are much more popular among ordinary athletes. People of all ages can compete, as long as they are in good physical condition。 In fact, it

49、has become a great family sport. Triathletes are special people who have time in their lives for careers (事业） and families。 Most are highly educated and earn top salaries (薪水） in their jobs。 Many triathletes are happily married.

52、my town occurred as scheduled. My job was to follow behind the runners in an ambulance in case any of them needed medical attention. As the athletes began to pace themselves， the front runners started to disappear. It was then that my eyes were drawn to the woman in blue running shorts and a baggy w

53、hite T-shirt。I knew we were already watching our “last runner”。 Her feet were turned in， yet her left knee was turned out. Her legs were so crippled and bent that it seemed impossible for her to walk， let alone run a marathon。The driver and I watched in silence as she slowly moved forward. We would

54、move forward a little bit， then stop and wait for her to gain some distance. Then wed slowly move forward a little bit more。 As I watched her struggle to put one foot in front of the other， I found myself breathing for her and urging her forward。 I wanted her to stop， and at the same time, I prayed

55、that she wouldnt.Finally, she was the only runner left in sight。 I sat on the edge of my seat and watched with respect and amazement as she pushed forward with sheer determination through the last miles. When the finish line came into sight, the cheering crowds had long gone home。 Yet， standing stra

56、ight and proud waited a man。 He was holding one end of a ribbon tied to a post。 She slowly crossed through, leaving both ends of the ribbon fluttering （飘动) behind her。I dont know this womans name， but that day she became a part of my life a part I often depend on. For her, it wasnt about beating the

57、 other runners or winning a prize。 It was about finishing what she had set out to do。 When I think things are too difficult or I get those “I-just-cant-do-it，” I think of the last runner. Then I realize how easy the task before me really is.8.What words can best describe the woman？A。Proud and determ
