23、iffe, chasing(角逐)a third London marathon title(冠军),says she has become a stronger person after her terrible experience at the 2004 Athens Games.Radcliffe, who failed to complete the Olympic marathon and the 10,000m last August, said: “Athens made me a stronger person and it made me care about critic
24、ism(批评).”“In the past I wanted to please everyone, but now I am going to listen even more to the people around me.”She didnt 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
25、to but she hasnt spoken to me last year and if she really cared for me, Im sure she would have contacted(联系)me.”Instead Radcliffe won the New York City marathon just 11 weeks after Athens.“In New York I wasnt in my best state but I did know I was good enough to win the race.”Radcliffe insisted her o
26、nly goal in Sundays 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 tim
27、es.“I dont think that-although I cant 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
28、 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 42.2-kilometre race three years ago.Afterwards she set a “mixed course” mark of 2:17:18 five months later in Chicago before lowering that to a time of 2:15:25 in the

Where there is a will, there is a way.BAthens will welcome the 2004 Olympic Games with open arms. Not only will the Games be returning to thei
33、r birthplace, but theyll also be entering a new period of Olympic history.The International Olympic Committee (IOC) has been looking for ways to make the worlds largest sporting event a bit smaller and easier for cities to host. Mexico is the only Latin American nation to have hosted the Olympics. A
34、nd the games have never been held in Africa.It costs well over$4 billion t host the Olympic Games. And this is stopping many poorer countries from trying to win the bid. Cities in Africa and Latin America, with great social and money problems, cannot even begin to make the bid.So, the IOC has sugges
35、ted 117 ways to make the Games smaller and easier for cities across the world. These ideas are to be put into practice soon-maybe in time for the Beijing 2008 Olympics. The IOC wants to save up to $400 million.The suggestions include limiting the number of sports to 28 and the number of athletes to
36、10,500.“Imagine a bus with 28 seats and some sports need to get off to give their places to other sports,”said an IOC official. Sports that might not appear in the 2008 Beijing Olympic Games included baseball, softball and the modern pentathlon(五项全能)(shooting, fencing, horse, jumping, swimming and r
37、unning).“We think that the Olympic Games have to be made smaller, and the less costly so that they can be organized by all continents and subcontinents(次大陆),”said IOC president Jacques Rogge.“Our dream is that a continent such as Africa will be able to organize the Olympic Games.”51.

41、 some people go out of their way to get into trouble. Thats more or less what happened the night that Nashville Police Officer Floyd Hyde was on duty.“I was on the way to a personal-injury accident in West Nashville. As I got onto Highway 40, blue lights and siren(警笛) going, I fell in behind a gold
42、Pontiac Firebird that suddenly seemed to take off quickly down the highway. The driver somehow panicked at the sight of me. He was going more than a hundred miles an hour and began passing cars on the shoulder.”But Hyde couldnt go after him. Taking care of injured people is always more important tha
43、n worrying about speeders, so the officer had to stay on his way to the accident. But he did try to keep the Firebird in sight as he drove, hoping another nearby unit would be able to step in and stop the speeding car. As it turned out, keeping the Firebird in sight was not that difficult. Every tur
44、n the Pontiac made was the very turn the officer needed to get to the accident scene.Hyde followed the Pontiac all the way to his destination(目的地). At that point he found another unit had already arrived at the accident scene. His help wasnt needed. Now he was free to try to stop the driver of the f
45、irebird, who by this time had developed something new to panick about.“Just about that time,” Hyde says, “ I saw fire coming out from under that car, with blue smoke and oil going everywhere. Hes blown his engine. Now he had to stop.”“After I arrested him, I asked him why he was running. He told me he didnt have a drivers licenseThat accident cost the driver of the Firebird plentya thousand dollars for the new enginenot to mention the charges for driving without a license, attempting to run away, and dangerous driving.55. The meaning of “panicked”
