It takes a combination of natural talent, luck, determination, and plenty of outside support for someone to make it big in sports, entertainment, or business. But what if competing is all that matters to you, whether you are likely to succeed or not? This was the goal of Michael Eddie the Eagle Edwards, and that he reached that goal was an amazing achievement.Born in the U.K. in 1963, Michael was an enthusiastic downhill skier whose dream was to compete for Britain in world-class competitions. He would have liked to represent his country in the 1984 Winter Olympics, but there were a large number of downhill competitors, and Edwards didnt qualify. Seeing his chance elsewhere, he switched to ski jumping. Ski jumping didnt cost nearly as much, and there was almost no competition for a place on the Britain team.But number of hurdles (障碍)could have meant the end of Edwards dream. He weighed more than most competitors, which put him at a disadvantage. He had no financial support for his training. Poor eyesight meant that he had to wear glasses under his goggles (护目镜)- not a good thing when they steamed up at high altitudes. But he couldnt let any of this discourage him. He saw himself as a true lover of the sport who simply wanted the chance to compete. Winning wasnt the point. Having the opportunity to try was all he cared about. And nothing could stop him from trying.In the end, Edwards took 55th place in the 1987 World Championships.

They began carrying passengers Monday in Germanys northern Lower Saxony state. The new train will run 100-kilometer trips and can travel up to 140 kilometers an hour.A French railroad company called Alstom built the two trains. Team in Germany and France cooperated on the project, which was supported by the German government. The new train model ,called the Coradia ilint, signals the beginning of efforts in Germany and other nations to move away from pollution-producing diesel(柴油) trains.The Coradia iLint is designed to run on non-electrified train lines with low levels of noise.It uses a process that combines hydrogen and oxygen to produce electrical power. If the system produces more energy than the train needs at that time, it can store the extra energy in batteries. The only emissions (排放物) are water and steam.A single tank of hydrogen can run a Coradia iLint train for about 1,000 kilometers. This is very similar to the distance a diesel-powered train can run on with a single tank.Hydrogen-powered trains cost more than diesel trains to build. But Alstom officials say the operating costs are much lower. The company plans to provide another 14 Coradia iLint trains to Lower Saxony by 2021.The head of railroad operations in the area, Carmen Schwab, praised replacing diesel trains with hydrogen. She said the move was an important first step in using clean-burning technologies to reach climate protection goals.Officials say the areas many wind turbines (涡轮机)will produce part of the energy to create the hydrogen to power the trains.Alstom says several other European countries have also expressed interest in developing hydrogen train systems. France has already said it wants its first hydrogen train to be operating by 2022.（1）Why did Germany build the new trains?A.To replace diesel trains.B.To carry more passengers.C.To make traveling much easier.D.To develop friendship with France.（2）What is one advantage of the Coradia iLint?A.It runs without making any noise.B.It doesnt use electrical power.C.It costs much less to run.D.It is cheaper to make it.（3）It can be concluded that hydrogen trains_.A.are widely usedB.are environmentally friendlyC.can stop air pollutionD.can produce water and oxygen（4）What might be the best title for the text?A.Saving Natural ResourcesB.Efforts to Reduce EmissionsC.Worlds First Hydrogen TrainsD.A New Way to Make Electricity二、任务型阅读（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分）5.根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空自处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。Try This at Home!Are you looking for a new pastime that will create a balance between physical activity and relaxation?
