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

  Fred decided what he really wanted to do and he did it in his spare time.He joined the New York Road Runners Club and organized New York City's first marathon race.But what Fred truly wanted to do, even more than run, was to bring people together.And that is what he did.He believed that anybody should be able to run-people of all ages, any background, professional or amateur(业余的), and of any country.Today, more than 28,000 people of all backgrounds and nationalities compete in the NYC Marathon.

  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.

  Fred died a few years later.But as one sports writer said, “The God handed him a short life.With his love of life, Fred Lebow turned it into a marathon.”

任务型阅读(共10小题;每小题1分,满分10分)

It all began with ...

Orlando Bloom was not a “good” student in school. Because of dyslexia, a reading and writing disorder (障碍), he struggled in many courses.

But Bloom says the dyslexia gave him the encouragement to overcome (克服) his difficulties.

In an interview with the Telegraph, the 32-year-old said the condition turned him into an ambitious person. “Because of the dyslexia, I always thought I had to work twice as hard as everyone else just to go the same distance,” he said. “That gave me a real kick as a kid and a lot of encouragement later on. In one sense, I guess that I'm grateful (感激的).”

Bloom is always preparing it thoroughly(充分地) when it comes to an audition (试镜) for a part. Perhaps this is what won him his role in the Lord of the Rings, a highly successful film trilogy (三部曲). “I really prepared it thoroughly for the audition and it's paid off,” he said.

It was the beginning of a fame that led to even greater success as a movie actor. But unlike some young people who aim for fame and fortune, Bloom believed an acting career “has been fulfilling (实现) his childhood fantasies”.

“Aged 9, I had this girlfriend and we used to have running races in the park to see who would be her boyfriend for the day. I wanted to be like Superman and fly in and rescue her. Once I realized Superman was an actor, I thought, ‘That's for me''.”

Bloom has always played special characters, like a knight (骑士) and a prince. It's difficult to picture him in everyman roles.

In October, Bloom was named Goodwill Ambassador (亲善大使) for the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF). His first task will be to film a documentary about the importance of clean water supplies.

In fact, Bloom started work for the UNICEF in 2007. On his first visit to Nepal, he was asked by students to take a small part in a play they were performing on local radio.
