Ⅰ。阅读理解

Paula Radcliffe, chasing(角逐） a third London （冠军)， says she has become a stronger person after experience at the 2004 Athens Games。

Radcliffe, who failed to complete the Olympic 10,000m last August， said, “Athens made me a stronger

marathon and the person and it marathon titleher

terrible

made me care less about criticism.”“In the past I wanted to please everyone, but now I am going to listen even more to the people around me.”

She didn’t care about criticism made at the weekend by Liz McColgan， who felt Radcliffe should have rested and let her body recover after her failure in Athens。“Liz is someone I look up to but she hasn't spoken to me last year and if she really cared for me， I'm sure she would have contacted me.”

Instead Radcliffe won the New York City marathon just 11 weeks after Athens。 “In New York I wasn't in my best state but I did know I was good enough to win the race.”

Radcliffe insisted her only goal in Sunday's race would be winning a third title and not chasing world records.

However, Radcliffe has not ruled out (排除) in the future chasing her “final\" world record time and questioned sayings that marathon runners have the ability in their career to produce only four or five world。class times.

“I don’t think that—although I_can't_put_a_number_on_it，” said Radcliffe。 “That changes from person to person。\"

Radcliffe is sure she can better her winning London 2003 performance some point in the future. Following a successful three。month training period in the United States, the 31。year。old will chase a third title on Sunday after her first victory in 2002 and again 12 months later。

Radcliffe clocked a time 2:18：56 in her first 42.2­kilometre race three years ago。Afterwards she set a “mixed course” mark of 2：17:18 five months later in Chicago

8．more 解析 考查比较等级.此处为“否定词＋比较级”表示最高级的含义，即“那是我听到的最令人感到宽慰的解释”。

As we are growing, we may want to get more freedom from our parents and would like to make our own decisions。 However, our parents usually disagree with us. Our relationship may be in trouble. Here are some tips to avoid worse situations。

To begin with， when we come across problems, don’t forget to ask our parents for advice。 It's better for us to communicate with them rather than quarrel with each other。 Next, spend more time with our parents。 Design some activities which the whole family can participate in, such as going for a trip。 Last but not least, talk about our school life frequently so that they can know more about us。
