Buckminster Fuller once said, “The minute you choose to do what you really want to do, it’s a different kind of life.” If you want to live abundantly, decide what you really want and figure out a way to do it. Be clear and live with intent.

You may have heard of Fred Lebow. He complained to his doctor that he lacked energy. His doctor advised him to take up running. He fell in love with it! He was 39 years old when he entered his first race.

Fred joined the New York Road Runners Club and organized New York City’s first marathon race. But what Fred truly wanted to do was to bring people together. He believes that anybody should be able to run — people of all ages and of any country.

Not everyone in New York was excited about people running through their neighborhood. A youth gang warned him that nobody had better run through their turf. “That’s great,” Fred said. “I need someone to protect the runners in your area, and you look like just the fellows to do it.” He gave them each a hat, shirt and jacket and that year, when the marathon went through their neighborhood, these young men proudly guarded the runners along their way.

Fred decided what was truly important to him and he found a way to do it. He lived with intent. That single decision made his life remarkably different.

As one sports writer said, “Fate handed him a short race. With his goal, with his love of life, Fred turned it into a marathon.”

Fred would say that it’s not about how long you live, but how you run the race of life.

The purpose that Fred Lebow organized New York City’s first marathon race was _____.

A. to be popular with people

B. to display his true love for sports development

C. to drive away his loneliness in the running

D. to get more people together

Which word in the passage is the closest in meaning to the underlined word “turf”?

A. Neighborhood. B. Way. C. Decision. D. Race.

What’s the best title for this passage?

A. Determination guarantees you a success.

B. The race of life with intent.

C. Nothing is impossible in one’s life race.

D. The benefits of taking up running.

Since then ,the 42–kilometer “Marathon”race has become a great test for athletes.

I am a long distance runner. When I was thirty-one, I was in a serious car accident. The doctor told me that they would try to get me to walk “normally” but I would never run again—terrible news for someone who views running as the oxygen(氧氣) she breathes. The doctors were right. For the next nine and a half years, I was unable to run more than twenty-five feet.

In 2006, I began self-training to take part in a 60-mile walk. Three months into preparing, I realized that walking 4-5 hours a day was too long. If only I could jog(慢跑) part of it—that would cost me less time. I started jogging without my knees aching. Slowly, I increased the distance. The doctor were proved wrong—it only took nine and a half years to do so.

While practicing, I suffered a loss—a dear friend suddenly died. His work had been to help women to accept themselves and reach their fullest potential(潛力). He believed that people should let nothing hold them back from achieving their goals. Soon after his death, a crazy thought entered my mind: what if I could run the LA Marathon? I knew that if I didn’t train to my fullest, the doctor would win. So I trained seven days a week. And I succeeded in crossing the finish line of the LA Marathons all over the United States to the astonishment of my doctors. They never believed that I would achieve that.

The aches and pains I experience while training and racing are nothing compared to the suffering people whom I respect must accept.

A．save some time                         B．protect her feet

C．get more exercise                       D．catch up with others

A．Because she was so sorry for the loss of a friend.

B．Because she was encouraged by her dead friend’s words.

C．Because she wanted to prove the doctors were wrong.

D．Because she wanted to make more friends.
