Ntonino Scordo’s China adventure was triggered by the story of legendary Italian explorer Marco Polo (1254-1324), who traveled to the same country over 700 years ago. “When I was a child, I saw II Milione on RAI,” he said, referring to the mini series The Adventures of Marco Polo on Italy’s national TV. “The exquisite Chinese food deeply impressed me and I decided one day I would explore this exotic country myself.”
Scordo, Nino to his friends, comes from a culinary family in Sicily, southern Italy, inheriting his mother’s passion for cooking. Since his arrival in China in 2010, he has traveled around the country — from Guangdong in the south to Shanghai in the east, and then Beijing in the north. Currently the executive sous chef at Jinling Hotel’s Restaurant Pacific Grill in Nanjing, Nino, inspired by the rich diversity of Chinese cuisine, has crafted many creative dishes, blending Western food with Chinese culture.
“Recently, I read the news of China’s new visa-free policy, which allows foreign nationals to stay in the country for up to 240 hours,” he said. “This is a praiseworthy policy, a commendable action that sends a strong message to the international community. I immediately informed my Italian friends and relatives, inviting them to visit China.”
Fascinated by Chinese culture and food, Nino often travels around to find new inspirations. “I visited some cities along the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, accompanied by an editor of Gourmet magazine. From north to south along the water route, the cities were Tai’erzhuang, Huai’an, Yangzhou and Hangzhou. It was a journey worth taking, with beautiful scenery, local delicacies, and a rich folk culture experience.”
“Traveling along the Grand Canal was a wonderful experience,” he said. “What stood out for me most was the historical cities and their distinct cultural heritage.” Every city they visited had an exceptional cuisine, particularly specialty delicacies that told stories about the region. “But it was not just the food that drew me in; it was the people, their kindness, and the customs passed down through generations,” he added.
4. What aroused Ntonino Scordo’s interest in China
A A TV series about Marco Polo. B. A legend of a Chinese explorer.
C. His mother’s passion for cooking. D. His Italian friends’ recommendations.
5. What does the underlined word “commendable” in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Changeable. B. Flexible. C. Debatable. D. Admirable.
6. What can we learn about Nino’s trip along the Grand Canal
A. He traveled with his Italian friends and relatives.
B. The trip was his first visit to northern Chinese cities.
C. He focused mainly on tasting specialty dishes during the trip.
D. The trip allowed him to experience diverse local cultures and foods.
7. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about
A. The impact of the policy. B. The summary of the trip.
C. The plan of the next trip. D. The promotion of the Grand Canal.
C
Germany is transforming a 580-acre abandoned airport into an eco-friendly neighborhood — a project officials hope will serve as a blueprint for other disused airports.
The old airport shut down after a new, modern one was built nearby. In 2017, developers announced the 5 million-square-meter Tegel Projekt, which aims to solve urban problems like car pollution and housing shortages.
The new area will have large green spaces, bike lanes, and 5,000 affordable, energy-efficient homes for over 10,000 people. It will also include facilities such as daycare centers, schools, and shops; an extra 4, 000 homes are planned for the surrounding areas. “We want people to rediscover public spaces for socializing, playing, or relaxing,” said Constanze Doll, the project’s spokesperson. “Important places like kindergartens, bakeries, and supermarkets can be easily reached on foot”.
Eco-friendliness is at the core of the design: vertical gardens on apartment buildings(to keep them cool without expensive, energy-hungry air conditioning), solar panels on every rooftop to supply electricity, and “Sponge City” technology — like pavements that let water seep through and rain gardens — to collect water. Builders will also use local wood and cut emissions to make the construction process carbon-neutral.
Turning old airports into neighborhoods isn’t common, but it’s not the first time. For example, in America, after Denver’s main airport moved to a new site 25 miles from the city center, developers turned the old airport(3 miles from town) into a residential community with over 3,500 single-family homes, parks, shops, and even an ice rink in a former aircraft hangar.
Next to Tegel’s new neighborhood will be a commercial zone using some old airport infrastructure, including “Urban Tech Republic” for tech companies and a campus for Berliner Hochschule für Technik University. Construction started in 2023, with the first areas opening by 2027, and there are plans for electric buses and a tramway.
“The streets and squares will belong to the people again, rather than to cars,” Doll added.
8 Which of the following best describes the new area introduced in Paragraph 3
A. Sustainable and habitable. B. Connected and luxurious.
C. High-end and futuristic. D. Developed and multicultural.
9. What can we learn from the Denver airport redevelopment
A. It focused mainly on commercial spaces. B. It served as a model for the Tegel Project.
C. It reused old airport for residential purpose. D. It addressed housing shortages for the nation.
10. What might be the author’s attitude towards the Tegel Project
A. Indifferent. B. Optimistic. C. Doubtful. D. Tolerant.
11. What would be the best title for the passage
A. Berlin’s Old Airports: History and Current Challenges
B. Public Spaces in Cities: Their Role in neighborhoods
C. Germany’s Urban Issues: Solving Housing Shortages
D. Tegel Airport: From Abandoned Site to Eco-neighborhood
D
For years, most new cars sold have been equipped with high-tech touch screens that control various functions, from air conditioning and navigation to music. Even safety features like automatic lane-keeping are sometimes screen-controlled. But are touch screens safe for drivers to use while driving
Traditional physical buttons allow drivers to operate controls without looking away from the road. However, touch screens offer no physical feedback, making it harder to use them without direct visual attention. Since a single screen handles dozens of functions, finding a particular setting often means tapping through several sub-menus. The result, say critics, is a dangerous distraction.
Research backs that up. In 2022, Swedish researchers conducted a study comparing 11 cars with touch screens to an older model with physical buttons. They measured how long it took drivers to perform simple tasks like changing radio stations or adjusting temperature while driving at 110 km/h.
The results were striking. In the older car, drivers completed all tasks in about ten seconds, during which the car traveled approximately 300 meters. In the worst-performing modern car, the same tasks took 45 seconds, with the car covering 1.4 kilometers. Even the best-performing models required several seconds longer than the traditional button-controlled car.
Another study in 2024 by Norwegian researchers used gaze-tracking cameras to measure distraction times. They found that even the quickest task—adjusting temperature — took drivers’ eyes off the road for an average of 3.5 seconds. Finding a new radio station took 11 seconds, while entering a new navigation address took 16 seconds. An analysis published in 2020 by the Transport Research Laboratory, a British organization, found that touch screens impaired a driver’s reaction time more than driving over the legal alcohol limit.
Safety organizations are taking actions. Starting this year, Euro NCAP, which provides safety ratings for cars in Europe, will require that certain critical functions like turn signals and windshield wipers must be controlled by physical buttons for a car to receive the highest five-star safety rating. Meanwhile, car manufacturers are responding to concerns. Volkswagen, Hyundai, and Porsche have begun returning physical buttons to their new models, recognizing that many drivers find touch screens inconvenient and potentially dangerous. As car technology continues to evolve, the balance between innovation and safety remains an important consideration.
12. What makes touch screens less user-friendly for drivers
A. They are energy consuming. B. They have a single function.
C. They provide no physical response. D. They are more expensive to produce.
13. What did the Swedish study focus on
A. Drivers’ feelings about control systems.
B. The time required to perform simple operations.
C. The various road conditions and driving speeds.
D The long-term impact of touch screens on driving habits.
14. Why did Euro NCAP set the new rules
A. To reduce production cost. B. To promote more touch screens use.
C. To enhance driving safety. D. To encourage new system development.
15. Which of the following is the main idea of the passage
A. Touch screens may pose risks to driving safety.
B. Safety is an important consideration for driving.
C. Physical buttons should be replaced by touch screens.
D. Touch screens are more convenient than physical buttons.

On the morning of his 1, 500-meter race at the 1968 Games, the determined runner Kip Keino of Kenya found himself in a rather awful situation. He was seated in the backseat of a somewhat shabby taxi, making his way to the Olympic Stadium in the bustling city of Mexico City.
He was understandably worried. The city was in the grip of a massive traffic congestion. Everywhere he looked, there were traffic jams stretching as far as the eye could see. The honking(按喇叭)of horns filled the air, creating a chaotic symphony. His taxi, a small vehicle amidst the sea of larger cars, buses, and other taxis, was barely inching forward.
Keino, with a furrowed brow, kept looking ahead at the long line of cars, buses, and taxis in front of him. The vehicles were bumper-to-bumper, and the drivers seemed frustrated, some impatiently drumming their fingers on the steering wheels.
It was an hour before his race, and he took a deep breath, trying to calm his nerves. As time ticked away, it became fifty minutes, and he could feel a sense of unease creeping up on him. The taxi moved a few more meters, but the progress was extremely slow. Forty minutes passed, and he started to tap his foot nervously on the floor of the taxi. The traffic showed no signs of letting up. Then, it was twenty minutes before the race. Keino’s heart began to pound a bit faster. He could see people on the sidewalks, some of them wearing Olympic-themed clothing, walking towards the stadium with excited expressions. Meanwhile, he was still stuck in the traffic.
Finally, it was only ten minutes before the start of the race. And to his disappointment, the taxi was still a full 2 kilometers from the stadium. Considering the current traffic situation, the distance seemed almost impossible to cover. What’s worse, earlier that morning, even before getting into the taxi, he had been worried that the pain in his stomach might affect his performance.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
After a moment’s thought, however, Keino made a decision.

Version 1
The Unique Value of Paper Reading
As a regular reader, I have a strong preference for paper reading. I enjoy the tactile pleasure of holding a book and the focus it brings, and I dedicate at least 30 minutes to it every day.
This habit has proven immensely beneficial. Firstly, reading physical books significantly enhances my concentration and memory retention, which directly improves my academic performance, especially in literature. Moreover, by immersing myself in various literary worlds, I have broadened my horizons and developed critical thinking skills. For instance, after reading To Kill a Mockingbird, I reflected deeply on social justice.
In conclusion, paper reading is far more than a hobby; it is a vital practice that continuously enriches my mind and soul.
Version 2
The Efficiency of Digital Reading
As a modern student, I primarily adopt digital reading. Using a lightweight e-reader, I can access a vast library anytime, anywhere. This allows me to make use of bits of time efficiently, such as during my daily commute.
The advantages are remarkable. The most significant one is the instant access to diverse and up-to-date resources, which keeps me well-informed. Furthermore, features like the built-in dictionary allow me to look up new words instantly, greatly boosting my vocabulary learning efficiency and reading fluency. This method has made me a more independent learner.
All in all, digital reading serves as a powerful key, unlocking a world of knowledge conveniently and effectively.
Version 3
My Balanced Reading Strategy
To maximize benefits, I smartly combine paper and digital reading. I choose paper books for deep, immersive reading at home, while using my e-reader for its convenience on the go.
This hybrid approach offers me the best of both worlds. Paper books enhance my focus and comprehension, whereas digital reading provides timely information and saves space. Consequently, this strategy has not only broadened my knowledge across various fields but also sharpened my language skills flexibly and effectively.
In conclusion, by choosing the right medium for the right situation, I have made reading a sustainable and highly rewarding part of my life.
47. One possible version:
Version 1:
After a moment’s thought, however, Keino made a decision. He could not afford to wait any longer. Paying the fare, he flung the door open and began sprinting through the stagnant sea of vehicles. His stomach tightened with a familiar, sharp pain, but he gritted his teeth and pushed forward, weaving between cars and dodging surprised pedestrians. His breathing was labored, not just from the effort, but from the anxiety of potentially missing the race of his life. The honking horns faded into a dull roar, replaced by the pounding of his own heart and the rhythm of his frantic footsteps on the pavement.
When Keino hurriedly ran into the stadium, other players were ready for the race. They were already in their lanes, performing final stretches, their faces masks of concentration. A murmur of surprise rippled through the crowd as Kenyan, drenched in sweat and breathing heavily, rushed onto the track. Keino’s chest heaved, his stomach ached, but as he stood on the track, a strange calm settled over him. The chaotic journey was over. Now, there was only the race. The starter’s pistol cracked, and Keino launched himself forward, his late arrival fueling a fierce, almost desperate energy.
Version 2:
After a moment’s thought, however, Keino made a decision. He couldn’t wait any longer. Leaving some money to the driver, he opened the door and sprang into action. He began to run, not a jog but a determined sprint, weaving through the crowded sidewalks. The sharp, familiar pain in his stomach flared up with each step, but he gritted his teeth and pushed forward. The vibrant city became a blur as he focused on the distant stadium. His breathing was labored in the high-altitude air, yet his mind was clear: he had to make it to the starting line. This two-kilometer dash was an unplanned, painful prelude to his real race, a test of his will even before the competition began.
When Keino hurriedly ran into the stadium, other players were ready for the race. He arrived just in time, breathless and sweating. With no time to warm up, he quickly pinned on his number and took his place on the track. The gun fired, and the race was on. His main rival, the top favorite, set a fierce pace. For most of the race, Keino clung on, battling the piercing pain in his stomach. Then, on the final lap, something incredible happened. Drawing upon a deep reserve of spirit, he surged ahead with a powerful kick, leaving his competitors behind. He crossed the finish line first, not just winning the gold medal but also setting a new Olympic record. His victory that day became a timeless lesson: that the greatest triumphs are not merely over opponents on the track, but over the obstacles within and the circumstances without, reminding us that a champion’s heart can turn any moment of despair into a defining moment of glory.

Ntonino Scordo’s China adventure was triggered by the story of legendary Italian explorer Marco Polo (1254-1324), who traveled to the same country over 700 years ago. “When I was a child, I saw II Milione on RAI,” he said, referring to the mini series The Adventures of Marco Polo on Italy’s national TV. “The exquisite Chinese food deeply impressed me and I decided one day I would explore this exotic country myself.”
Scordo, Nino to his friends, comes from a culinary family in Sicily, southern Italy, inheriting his mother’s passion for cooking. Since his arrival in China in 2010, he has traveled around the country — from Guangdong in the south to Shanghai in the east, and then Beijing in the north. Currently the executive sous chef at Jinling Hotel’s Restaurant Pacific Grill in Nanjing, Nino, inspired by the rich diversity of Chinese cuisine, has crafted many creative dishes, blending Western food with Chinese culture.
“Recently, I read the news of China’s new visa-free policy, which allows foreign nationals to stay in the country for up to 240 hours,” he said. “This is a praiseworthy policy, a commendable action that sends a strong message to the international community. I immediately informed my Italian friends and relatives, inviting them to visit China.”
Fascinated by Chinese culture and food, Nino often travels around to find new inspirations. “I visited some cities along the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal, accompanied by an editor of Gourmet magazine. From north to south along the water route, the cities were Tai’erzhuang, Huai’an, Yangzhou and Hangzhou. It was a journey worth taking, with beautiful scenery, local delicacies, and a rich folk culture experience.”
“Traveling along the Grand Canal was a wonderful experience,” he said. “What stood out for me most was the historical cities and their distinct cultural heritage.” Every city they visited had an exceptional cuisine, particularly specialty delicacies that told stories about the region. “But it was not just the food that drew me in; it was the people, their kindness, and the customs passed down through generations,” he added.
4. What aroused Ntonino Scordo’s interest in China
A A TV series about Marco Polo. B. A legend of a Chinese explorer.
C. His mother’s passion for cooking. D. His Italian friends’ recommendations.
5. What does the underlined word “commendable” in Paragraph 3 probably mean
A. Changeable. B. Flexible. C. Debatable. D. Admirable.
6. What can we learn about Nino’s trip along the Grand Canal
A. He traveled with his Italian friends and relatives.
B. The trip was his first visit to northern Chinese cities.
C. He focused mainly on tasting specialty dishes during the trip.
D. The trip allowed him to experience diverse local cultures and foods.
7. What does the last paragraph mainly talk about
A. The impact of the policy. B. The summary of the trip.
C. The plan of the next trip. D. The promotion of the Grand Canal.
C
Germany is transforming a 580-acre abandoned airport into an eco-friendly neighborhood — a project officials hope will serve as a blueprint for other disused airports.
The old airport shut down after a new, modern one was built nearby. In 2017, developers announced the 5 million-square-meter Tegel Projekt, which aims to solve urban problems like car pollution and housing shortages.
The new area will have large green spaces, bike lanes, and 5,000 affordable, energy-efficient homes for over 10,000 people. It will also include facilities such as daycare centers, schools, and shops; an extra 4, 000 homes are planned for the surrounding areas. “We want people to rediscover public spaces for socializing, playing, or relaxing,” said Constanze Doll, the project’s spokesperson. “Important places like kindergartens, bakeries, and supermarkets can be easily reached on foot”.
Eco-friendliness is at the core of the design: vertical gardens on apartment buildings(to keep them cool without expensive, energy-hungry air conditioning), solar panels on every rooftop to supply electricity, and “Sponge City” technology — like pavements that let water seep through and rain gardens — to collect water. Builders will also use local wood and cut emissions to make the construction process carbon-neutral.
Turning old airports into neighborhoods isn’t common, but it’s not the first time. For example, in America, after Denver’s main airport moved to a new site 25 miles from the city center, developers turned the old airport(3 miles from town) into a residential community with over 3,500 single-family homes, parks, shops, and even an ice rink in a former aircraft hangar.
Next to Tegel’s new neighborhood will be a commercial zone using some old airport infrastructure, including “Urban Tech Republic” for tech companies and a campus for Berliner Hochschule für Technik University. Construction started in 2023, with the first areas opening by 2027, and there are plans for electric buses and a tramway.
“The streets and squares will belong to the people again, rather than to cars,” Doll added.
8 Which of the following best describes the new area introduced in Paragraph 3
A. Sustainable and habitable. B. Connected and luxurious.
C. High-end and futuristic. D. Developed and multicultural.
9. What can we learn from the Denver airport redevelopment
A. It focused mainly on commercial spaces. B. It served as a model for the Tegel Project.
C. It reused old airport for residential purpose. D. It addressed housing shortages for the nation.
10. What might be the author’s attitude towards the Tegel Project
A. Indifferent. B. Optimistic. C. Doubtful. D. Tolerant.
11. What would be the best title for the passage
A. Berlin’s Old Airports: History and Current Challenges
B. Public Spaces in Cities: Their Role in neighborhoods
C. Germany’s Urban Issues: Solving Housing Shortages
D. Tegel Airport: From Abandoned Site to Eco-neighborhood
D
For years, most new cars sold have been equipped with high-tech touch screens that control various functions, from air conditioning and navigation to music. Even safety features like automatic lane-keeping are sometimes screen-controlled. But are touch screens safe for drivers to use while driving
Traditional physical buttons allow drivers to operate controls without looking away from the road. However, touch screens offer no physical feedback, making it harder to use them without direct visual attention. Since a single screen handles dozens of functions, finding a particular setting often means tapping through several sub-menus. The result, say critics, is a dangerous distraction.
Research backs that up. In 2022, Swedish researchers conducted a study comparing 11 cars with touch screens to an older model with physical buttons. They measured how long it took drivers to perform simple tasks like changing radio stations or adjusting temperature while driving at 110 km/h.
The results were striking. In the older car, drivers completed all tasks in about ten seconds, during which the car traveled approximately 300 meters. In the worst-performing modern car, the same tasks took 45 seconds, with the car covering 1.4 kilometers. Even the best-performing models required several seconds longer than the traditional button-controlled car.
Another study in 2024 by Norwegian researchers used gaze-tracking cameras to measure distraction times. They found that even the quickest task—adjusting temperature — took drivers’ eyes off the road for an average of 3.5 seconds. Finding a new radio station took 11 seconds, while entering a new navigation address took 16 seconds. An analysis published in 2020 by the Transport Research Laboratory, a British organization, found that touch screens impaired a driver’s reaction time more than driving over the legal alcohol limit.
Safety organizations are taking actions. Starting this year, Euro NCAP, which provides safety ratings for cars in Europe, will require that certain critical functions like turn signals and windshield wipers must be controlled by physical buttons for a car to receive the highest five-star safety rating. Meanwhile, car manufacturers are responding to concerns. Volkswagen, Hyundai, and Porsche have begun returning physical buttons to their new models, recognizing that many drivers find touch screens inconvenient and potentially dangerous. As car technology continues to evolve, the balance between innovation and safety remains an important consideration.
12. What makes touch screens less user-friendly for drivers
A. They are energy consuming. B. They have a single function.
C. They provide no physical response. D. They are more expensive to produce.
13. What did the Swedish study focus on
A. Drivers’ feelings about control systems.
B. The time required to perform simple operations.
C. The various road conditions and driving speeds.
D The long-term impact of touch screens on driving habits.
14. Why did Euro NCAP set the new rules
A. To reduce production cost. B. To promote more touch screens use.
C. To enhance driving safety. D. To encourage new system development.
15. Which of the following is the main idea of the passage
A. Touch screens may pose risks to driving safety.
B. Safety is an important consideration for driving.
C. Physical buttons should be replaced by touch screens.
D. Touch screens are more convenient than physical buttons.

On the morning of his 1, 500-meter race at the 1968 Games, the determined runner Kip Keino of Kenya found himself in a rather awful situation. He was seated in the backseat of a somewhat shabby taxi, making his way to the Olympic Stadium in the bustling city of Mexico City.
He was understandably worried. The city was in the grip of a massive traffic congestion. Everywhere he looked, there were traffic jams stretching as far as the eye could see. The honking(按喇叭)of horns filled the air, creating a chaotic symphony. His taxi, a small vehicle amidst the sea of larger cars, buses, and other taxis, was barely inching forward.
Keino, with a furrowed brow, kept looking ahead at the long line of cars, buses, and taxis in front of him. The vehicles were bumper-to-bumper, and the drivers seemed frustrated, some impatiently drumming their fingers on the steering wheels.
It was an hour before his race, and he took a deep breath, trying to calm his nerves. As time ticked away, it became fifty minutes, and he could feel a sense of unease creeping up on him. The taxi moved a few more meters, but the progress was extremely slow. Forty minutes passed, and he started to tap his foot nervously on the floor of the taxi. The traffic showed no signs of letting up. Then, it was twenty minutes before the race. Keino’s heart began to pound a bit faster. He could see people on the sidewalks, some of them wearing Olympic-themed clothing, walking towards the stadium with excited expressions. Meanwhile, he was still stuck in the traffic.
Finally, it was only ten minutes before the start of the race. And to his disappointment, the taxi was still a full 2 kilometers from the stadium. Considering the current traffic situation, the distance seemed almost impossible to cover. What’s worse, earlier that morning, even before getting into the taxi, he had been worried that the pain in his stomach might affect his performance.
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题纸的相应位置作答。
After a moment’s thought, however, Keino made a decision.

Version 1
The Unique Value of Paper Reading
As a regular reader, I have a strong preference for paper reading. I enjoy the tactile pleasure of holding a book and the focus it brings, and I dedicate at least 30 minutes to it every day.
This habit has proven immensely beneficial. Firstly, reading physical books significantly enhances my concentration and memory retention, which directly improves my academic performance, especially in literature. Moreover, by immersing myself in various literary worlds, I have broadened my horizons and developed critical thinking skills. For instance, after reading To Kill a Mockingbird, I reflected deeply on social justice.
In conclusion, paper reading is far more than a hobby; it is a vital practice that continuously enriches my mind and soul.
Version 2
The Efficiency of Digital Reading
As a modern student, I primarily adopt digital reading. Using a lightweight e-reader, I can access a vast library anytime, anywhere. This allows me to make use of bits of time efficiently, such as during my daily commute.
The advantages are remarkable. The most significant one is the instant access to diverse and up-to-date resources, which keeps me well-informed. Furthermore, features like the built-in dictionary allow me to look up new words instantly, greatly boosting my vocabulary learning efficiency and reading fluency. This method has made me a more independent learner.
All in all, digital reading serves as a powerful key, unlocking a world of knowledge conveniently and effectively.
Version 3
My Balanced Reading Strategy
To maximize benefits, I smartly combine paper and digital reading. I choose paper books for deep, immersive reading at home, while using my e-reader for its convenience on the go.
This hybrid approach offers me the best of both worlds. Paper books enhance my focus and comprehension, whereas digital reading provides timely information and saves space. Consequently, this strategy has not only broadened my knowledge across various fields but also sharpened my language skills flexibly and effectively.
In conclusion, by choosing the right medium for the right situation, I have made reading a sustainable and highly rewarding part of my life.
47. One possible version:
Version 1:
After a moment’s thought, however, Keino made a decision. He could not afford to wait any longer. Paying the fare, he flung the door open and began sprinting through the stagnant sea of vehicles. His stomach tightened with a familiar, sharp pain, but he gritted his teeth and pushed forward, weaving between cars and dodging surprised pedestrians. His breathing was labored, not just from the effort, but from the anxiety of potentially missing the race of his life. The honking horns faded into a dull roar, replaced by the pounding of his own heart and the rhythm of his frantic footsteps on the pavement.
When Keino hurriedly ran into the stadium, other players were ready for the race. They were already in their lanes, performing final stretches, their faces masks of concentration. A murmur of surprise rippled through the crowd as Kenyan, drenched in sweat and breathing heavily, rushed onto the track. Keino’s chest heaved, his stomach ached, but as he stood on the track, a strange calm settled over him. The chaotic journey was over. Now, there was only the race. The starter’s pistol cracked, and Keino launched himself forward, his late arrival fueling a fierce, almost desperate energy.
Version 2:
After a moment’s thought, however, Keino made a decision. He couldn’t wait any longer. Leaving some money to the driver, he opened the door and sprang into action. He began to run, not a jog but a determined sprint, weaving through the crowded sidewalks. The sharp, familiar pain in his stomach flared up with each step, but he gritted his teeth and pushed forward. The vibrant city became a blur as he focused on the distant stadium. His breathing was labored in the high-altitude air, yet his mind was clear: he had to make it to the starting line. This two-kilometer dash was an unplanned, painful prelude to his real race, a test of his will even before the competition began.
When Keino hurriedly ran into the stadium, other players were ready for the race. He arrived just in time, breathless and sweating. With no time to warm up, he quickly pinned on his number and took his place on the track. The gun fired, and the race was on. His main rival, the top favorite, set a fierce pace. For most of the race, Keino clung on, battling the piercing pain in his stomach. Then, on the final lap, something incredible happened. Drawing upon a deep reserve of spirit, he surged ahead with a powerful kick, leaving his competitors behind. He crossed the finish line first, not just winning the gold medal but also setting a new Olympic record. His victory that day became a timeless lesson: that the greatest triumphs are not merely over opponents on the track, but over the obstacles within and the circumstances without, reminding us that a champion’s heart can turn any moment of despair into a defining moment of glory.
