8.Twelve years ago,I was a 19-year-old guy living in the French A1ps.In February 2004,while skiing the back-country in Val d'Isere,I fell off the mountain,resulting in a right leg broken in several pieces.I was helicoptered to hospital,operated on immediately-and there started my adult life.
Before the accident,I was on a path to what I hoped would be a career in rugby.After-wards,and participation in collision sport was gone.I found a replacement in cycling.Unfortunately,by late 2012,I tried to cycle up Mount Ventoux,but it was halfway up when the pain hit me and I gave up.
A decision needed to be made on a next step.I had to have my lower right leg cut off.Several months later,I had my first proper weight-bearing prosthetic (假肢).I jumped on a train with my bike to Mount Ventoux.Though it certainly wasn't my quickest,I did it.
Two weeks later,I was lucky enough to be given a running blade; I bounced on it that day and then raced my triathlon (三項(xiàng)全能) on the Monday.So,that was me,up and running-almost 12years since I had last run.
Along with my running coach,I complete a"make every kilometre count"programme of four runs per week alongside a busy cycle,swim and gym schedule.So far this year,I have raced a 10k with an unexpected personal best in January of 38:04.I have my first speed triathlon in late March before heading to North Korea to compete in the Pyongyang Marathon on 10April.
If my lifetime allows,I will attempt to race in every country in the world.In the meantime,I'll keep on running-and,when it hurts and I'm low on motivation,I'll remember how far I've come and how much further I've got to go.

24.What had been the author's special interest before the accident?D
A.Skiing.B.Running.C.Cycling.D.Rugby.
25.How was the author,s second try of cycling up Mount Ventoux?D
A.He fell off and was seriously hurt.
B.He gave up because of great pain.
C.He was the quickest to get to the top.
D.He succeeded in getting to the top.
26.What is the author's wish?A
A.To race all over the world.
B.To participate in collision sport.
C.To cycle up Mount Ventoux again.
D.To compete in the Pyongyang Marathon.
27.Which of the following word best describes the author?C
A.Enthusiastic.B.Considerate.C.Determined.D.Generous.
