How long does it take for the runners to cross the starting line in recent Marathon races? [br]
Everywhere we look, we see Americans running. They run for every reason anybody could think of. They run for health, for beauty, to lose weight, to feel fit, and because it is the thing they love to do. Every year, for example, thousands of people run in one race, the Boston Marathon, the best known long distance race in the United States, In recent years there have been nearly 5,000 official competitors and it takes three whole minutes for the crowd of runners just to cross the starting line.
You may have heard the story of the Greek runner, Pheidippides. He ran from Marathon to Athens to deliver the news of the great victory 2,500 years ago. No one knows how long it took him to run the distance. But the story tells us that he died of the effort. Today no one will die in a Marathon race. But_at the finish line, we see what this race is about; not being first, but finishing. The real victory is not over one’s fellow runners, but over one’s own body. It is a victory of will-power over fatigue. In the Boston Marathon, each person who crosses that finish line is a winner.
选项
A、Because he is over the fellow runners.
B、Because he is over former runners.
C、Because he is over his own body.
D、Because he wins the prize.
答案
C
解析
细节题。短文的最后提到,马拉松赛跑并不是看谁第一个通过,而是看跑到终点没有。所以,真正的胜利并不是超过其他的赛跑者,而是超越自己,即C项正确。
