But Eddie Izzard, a 47-year-old British man, did something completely different. He decided to raise money by running 1,100 miles. And he managed to raise more than £200,000! It would take most people at least two years if they were crazy enough to try and run such a distance. But Eddie Izzard? It took him just 51 days. In less than two months, he ran 43 marathons! When asked how he felt, he said that he was planning to “sleep for a week”. He thanked the people who had come to support him and joined him on his journey. And how long did he have to train for all this? Well, amazingly, only five weeks —he wasn’t even particularly fit when he decided to put himself in for this journey. And what a journey it was! He lost several of his toenails (脚趾甲)and had blisters (水泡)all over his feet. He had to take ice baths for his legs at the end of each day to help stop his legs inflating (肿胀) to twice the size of an elephant. Even experts are impressed with what he has achieved. Andy Dixon editor of Runners World, says, “Covering 26 miles in a day at whatever speed for 43 runs, it’s demanding. A 5-hour marathon is a fairly decent pace. It’s a great achievement.” So how did he do it? Well, he ran slowly at first. Ten hours a day to begin with and, as he got fitter, he got faster. In the end he was finishing in just over five hours. But fitness alone was not enough. What was more important was the fact that Eddie Izzard wanted to make a difference to other people’ lives. What Eddie Izzard did was so special that the documentary of his run has been made into an inspiring film: Believe! “You’ve got to believe you can be something else. That’s why I keep going.” Eddie says in the film. 24. Eddie Izzard ran l 1,100 miles to ________. A. keep fit B. win the prize C. collect money D. express thanks 25. Eddie’s running journey was ________. A. painful B. exciting C. dangerous D. pleasant 26. What can we learn from the passage? A. Fitness leads to Eddie’s success. B. Eddie’s story has been made into a film. C. It took Eddie 51 days to prepare for the running. D. Eddie finished the running with the expert’s help. 27. Which of the following words can best describe Eddie Izzard? A. Smart and helpful. B. Inspiring and honest. C. Patient and hard-working. D. Caring and strong-willed. C In the animal kingdom, weakness can bring about aggression in other animals. This sometimes happens with humans also. But I have found that my weakness brings out the kindness in people. I see it every day when people hold doors for me, pour cream into my coffee, or help me to put on my coat. And I have discovered that it makes them happy. From my wheelchair experience, I see the best in people, but sometimes I feel sad because those who appear independent miss the kindness I see daily. They don’t get to see this soft side of others. Often, we try every way possible to avoid showing our weakness, which includes a lot of pretending. But only when we stop pretending we're brave or strong do we allow people to show the kindness that’s in them. Last month, when I was driving home on a busy highway, I began to feel unwell and drove more slowly than usual. People behind me began to get impatient and angry, with some speeding up alongside me, honking (按喇叭)or even shouting at me. At the moment I decided to do something I had never done in twenty-four years of driving. I put on the car flashlights and drove on at a really low speed.No more angry shouts and no more honks! When I put on my flashlights, I was saying to other drivers, “I have a problem here. I am weak and doing the best I can. And everyone understood. Several times, I saw drivers who wanted to pass. They couldn’t get around me because of the stream of passing traffic. But instead of getting impatient and angry, they waited, knowing the driver in front of them was in some way weak. Sometimes situations call for us to act strong and brave even when we don’t feel that way. But those are few and far between. More often, it would be better if we don’t pretend we feel strong when we feel weak or pretend that we are brave when we are scared. 28. People will feel happy, according t
