问题 口语交际,情景问答题

阅读下列材料,将材料所蕴含的道理补充在题后。(4分)

美国著名短跑运动员乔伊娜,每次参加比赛时,都是披散着飘逸的长发,穿着自己设计的色彩斑斓的运动服。她仿佛是站在T型台上的模特,耀眼得连她的对手都止不住多看她几眼。退役之后她才透露:“其实我这样做只是想吸引对手的注意而已,因为对于短跑运动员来说,每秒钟都弥足珍贵,只要对手分我一个0.1秒的眼神,我就有可能领先0.1秒,获得最后胜利。”

在第28届奥运会上,刘翔在男子110米栏决赛中,以12秒91的成绩夺得了金牌,但可惜的是,他这一成绩刚好平了世界纪录。也就是说,刘翔只要快0.01秒,就可以打破世界纪录,但是他与这一荣耀擦肩而过。后来专家的分析却让人惊讶——其实刘翔完全可以打破世界纪录,只不过他在冲刺的最后阶段,侧头瞄了对手一眼。这一眼也许只是一个下意识的行为,却令他错失了0.01秒的先机。

乔伊娜的胜利和刘翔的遗憾,这一切,其实都只发生在一个眼神之间。

人生也是如此,            

答案

Carolyn Stradley is the founder of C&S Paving Ine.(铺路公司)in Atlanta,USA.In the following account,she recalls the job that challenged her   36  and skill but left her flying high.

“When the Atlanta Airport was under  37   in 1979,we were a new company struggling to make it.National Car Rental wanted to have 2500 square meters of dirt paved  38  the cars could be on site   39  the airport opened,and the official opening was only ten days away!  40   other local paving company wanted to do the job,  41  it couldn’t be done in such a short time.”

“Because we were new and really needed the work,we were   42  to try harder.We gave National Car Rental our offer and   43   our best effort to get the job finished within ten days.We also   44  them that if we failed,they would be no worse off,   45   they had plenty to gain if we succeeded.”

“We got the job and immediately went into  46  .Working at night needed lights,so I rented a machine to produce electricity for the site.Our  47  challenge was to keep the rock mixture  48  enough.All the available water wagons(洒水车)were rented out for the airport construction,and we certainly couldn’t afford to buy a new one. 49  ,I got a special   50   to rent fire engine hoses(消防水龙带)and connect them to nearby hydrants(消防);then I  51  held one of those hoses to  52  down the rock.”

“Those ten days were filled with challenges that 53  one creative idea after another.Nine days later,the night before the airport opened,National Car Rental was the  54  company that had cars on the parking lot.”

“The key to our success was having the    55   to take on any job and then being creative in our approach to getting it done.”
