The yearly marathon ( a long-distance running race of 42. 195 km) in my town usually occurs during a heat wave. My job was to follow behind the runners in an ambulance 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 3and then my eyes were 4 to the woman in blue silk running shorts and a loose white T-shirt.

  We knew we were already watching our "last runner". Her 5 were so crippled(殘廢的)that it seemed almost impossible for her to be able to walk, 6 alone run a marathon.

  Doug and I 7in silence as she slowly moved forward. 8 ，she was the only runner left in sight. Tears streamed down my face when I watched with respect 9 she pushed for?ward with great 10 through the last miles.

When the finish line came into sight, rubbish lay everywhere and the 11 crowds had gone home, 12   ，standing straight and ever so proud 13 a lone man. He was 14 one end of a ribbon(緞帶)of crepe paper(縐紙)  15 to a post. She slowly crossed through, leaving both ends of the paper fluttering(飄動(dòng))behind her.

  I 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 wasn't about 17 the other runners or winning a prize,but about 18 what she had set out to do,no matter 19 When I think things are too diffi?cult or get those " I-just-can't-do-it"，I think of the last runner. Then 1 realize how 20 the task before me really is.

 Speaking of Londoners，a stereotype comes to mind―a man in a dark suit with an umbrella in hand and Big Ben barely visible against the foggy sky. Londoners often give the impression of being reserved.

But The New York Times recently issued a report headlined "True Londoners Are Extinct". What defines a Londoner exactly? The criteria can be tricky.

The newspaper discovered that over the last decade，the foreign-born population in London reached 2.6 million，about a third of the city' s population.

"Foreigners can't be Londoners，" a British political campaigner told the newspaper.  

A true Londoner would never support Manchester United,the newspaper quoted a man in a pub. Fair enough，since one has four other top league clubs to choose from，you must be too ignorant to be a Londoner.

Next issue is where you live. There are those who believe that true Londoners are cockneys― those who were born within earshot of Bow Bells.

The oddest claim of all was from a pub goer: "A real Londoner would never, never, ever,eat at one of those bloody Angus steakhouses in the West End. That' s how you tell."

Indeed,London is a city "prejudiced" with directions. You quickly discover which part of the city suits your temperament. West London,one woman said to The New York Times, was too "brittle" for her. But the West End is the place where the noble accent was born along with shopping malls and top residential estates.

South Londoners hate going north. North Londoners forget there's a south beyond the South Bank. East London is close to the port and the site of early industrial development. It, s often considered one of the poorest areas in the city.

"You can' t cut the prejudice out of London，" a university student said to the newspaper. But it is this uneasy charm that gives the city its unique dynamic.

(   ) 1, The author thinks the claims of who are true Londoners are .

A. strange    B. special C. creative    D. misleading

(   ) 2. If a Londoner supports Manchester United, he will be considered      

A. tricky    B. honest C. ignorant    D. tolerant

(   ) 3. Which of the following is an opinion rather than a fact?

A.   The West End occupies some Angus steakhouses.

B.   There are four other top football league clubs in London.

C.   East London is close to the port and the site of early industry.

D.   True Londoners are cockneys born within earshot of Bow Bells.
