A friend of mine met with an accident driving in darkness. His legs were so hurt that he couldn't move. What was the
1
was he found himself unable to ask for helw-his mobile phone went out of
2
as a result of exhausted (用尽的) battery. Nothing could be done but to
3
in cold wilderness. It was
8
hours later that day broke, and then the
4
of the rescue.
It is almost
5
that he could stand the horror in the darkness for so long.
Even more surprising was his
6
: "First of all I checked up my
7
conditions and found myself not in mortal (必死的) danger. As there was no
8
to call for help, I leaned back in my seat trying my best to keep the wound from
9
. In this way I dozed (打盹) off.”
His story put and end to my regret for the
10
of an exploration adventure that happened last year. A group of young men
11
to explore a mountain cave and got lost.
12
to find a way out in the dark cave they were frightened and ran anxiously without a sense of
13
Finally they fell dead in fear and exhaustion (筋疲力尽). According to the
14
people that found them, the place where they got lost was only about 10 meters away from the
15
of the cave.
If they stayed on the spot when they lost their way and tried to
16 themselves, they would probably sense a fain light glimmering (闪烁) not far away.
Don't you think that you can compare it with
17
itself? When you meet with obstacles (障碍)in life and work, you are lost in darkness.
18
you it's unclear yet and you needn't put up struggle
19
. It seems to be a negative (消极的) attitude,
20
a person who can afford to do so must have foresight as well as a great courage in the first place.

B. immediately
C. carefully

The annual marathon in my town usually occurs during heat wave. My job was to follow behind the runners in an am bulance
1
any of them needed medical attention.
"We're supposed to stay behind the
2
runner, so take it slowly," I said to the driver, Doug, as the race started.
The front-runners started to

and then my eyes wen

We knew we were already watching our "last runner" Her

alone run a marathon.
Doug and I

in silence as she slowly moved forward
8
, she was the only runner left in sight. Tears streamed down my face when I watched with awe (敬畏)

crowds had long gone home.

to a post.
She slowly crossed through, leaving both ends of the paper fluttering (飘扬) behind her.
1 do not know this woman's name, but that day she became a part of my
16
a part I often depend on, For her, it was about
17
the other runners or winning a prize, it was about
18
what she had set out to do, no matter
19
When I think things are too difficult or I get those "I--just-can't- do--it," I think of the last runner. Then I realize how
20
the task before me really is.
