Sir Steven Redgrave—Winner of 5 Olympic Gold Medals “In 1997 I was found to have developed diabetes (糖尿病), believing the profession trained for the whole of my life ended, I felt very sorry. Then one of my friends said there was no reason why I should stop training and competing. That was it—the encouragement I needed. I could still be a winner if I believed in myself. I am not saying that it isn?t difficult sometimes. But I wanted to prove to myself that I wasn?t finished yet. Nothing is to stand in my way.”

Karen Pickering—Swimming World Champion (冠军) “I swim 4 hours a day, 6 days a week. I manage that work by putting it on top of my diary. This is the key to success—you can?t follow a profession in any field without well-organized. Make a list of what you believe you can Trust yourself, write down your goals for the day, however are, and you?ll be a step closer to achieving them.”

Kristen Stewart—Actress

“When things are getting hard, a voice inside my head tells me that I can?t achieve anything. Then, there are other distractions, such as family or hobbies. The key is to give most of your attention to one thing. When I feel nervous, it helps a lot to repeat words such as ?focus? , ?calm?, ?peace?, either out loud or silently in my mind. It makes me feel more in control and increases my confidence. This is a habit and is a powerful psychological(心理学的) tool.”

D． Answer the questions（根据短文内容回答下列问题）（7分）

Over recent years, letter writing has been replaced (代替) by other ways of communication. Technology has developed so rapidly that we now expect to be able to talk to people immediately and get a quick response from them. Rather than put pen to paper, it feels much more natural for us to send text messages and emails.

There is no denying that there are advantages to these modern ways of communication. We can talk to people all over the globe within seconds. We can also edit our emails before sending them. However, if we make a mistake in a letter, we have to cross it out or start again.

However, have you ever thought about what we are losing? Yes, we are forgetting about the art of letter writing.

Not a single person would say that reading a hand-written letter from a friend isn?t enjoyable. When you know someone has taken time to write a letter to you, especially a birthday letter, there?s something very

special in your heart. On the other hand, not only the person receiving the letter will benefit from a lovely envelope, but also the writer himself. When we know we?re doing something that will make our friends very happy, we feel good about ourselves, too. In addition, writing a letter can improve our language skills and we can also learn some new expressions.
