Back hme in his native Ireland, Farrell ran the marathn t raise mney fr DEBRA, an Irish charity supprting peple wh, like Fgarty, have the incurable genetic cnditin epidermlysis bullsa (EB) — als knwn as butterfly skin.
Emma Fgarty was brn with a severe frm f the cnditin, as she was brn with n skin n her left ft and right arm and can develp very painful swelling frm even the slightest tuch. But nw, Fgarty is Ireland's ldest surviving persn with the cnditin, and after reaching a milestne f turning 40 in June, she and Farrell decided t cmplete the race tgether.
"I have knwn Emma fr many years. She is what curage and pure determinatin are all abut. That run was nthing cmpared t the pain she is frced t underg every single day, even thugh she desn't shw it. It was an hnur t see her waiting fr me with 4 km t g, each f thse representing a decade f her life, and t d the final stretch tgether. I'll never frget it." said Farrell.
Fgarty and Farrell riginally set ut t raise €400,000 ($660,000 AUD) fr the charity but nw aim t hit the millin-eur mark ($1.6 millin AUD), after the pair cmpleted the marathn in just ver fur hurs.

Are athletes nearing the limits f what’s pssible? Are they struggling t break recrds? The hammer thrw (链球), fr example, hasn’t seen a new wrld recrd since 1986. Yet, athletes frequently utd themselves in ther sprts, such as the 400-metre sprint.
Althugh prfessinal athletes ften bast impressive muscles, simply increasing muscle mass des nt guarantee imprved athletic perfrmance. This is partly because muscles lse efficiency as they grw. Mre muscle mass prduces extra frce, but the benefits decrease as muscle mass cntinues t grw and muscles will eventually apprach a hard limit n what they can achieve.
An athlete’s dminant muscle fibre type als significantly impacts perfrmance. Sprinters (短跑运动员) have a high cncentratin f fast-twitch fibers (快肌纤维) in cntrast t marathn runners, wh have a high cncentratin f slw-twitch fibers. Fast-twitch fibers are richer in energy stres, prduce mre pwerful mvements and tire us ut mre quickly than the slw-twitch variety. This difference sets a speed limit n high-endurance sprts like lng-distance running.
Muscles set a ceiling n hw hard athletes can wrk, but perfrmance als depends n what athletes d with their muscles. In the 1968 Olympics, Dick Fsbury used an innvative strategy fr the high jump that raised the bar. Instead f saring frward ver the ple, he turned his bdy mid-flight. The backward jump enabled him t leap ver the ple with less effrt. Five years later, Dwight Stnes perfected the “Fsbury Flp” and brke the high-jump wrld recrd using this methd.
Technlgical advancements in sprtswear als significantly bst perfrmance. Shes equipped with carbn-plated insles (碳板鞋垫) can give runners an advantage. This type f ftwear limits energy lss, meaning the runner has t put in less wrk t run faster. Wrld Athletics allws athletes t cmpete with these shes as lng as the sft base is n higher than abut 4 centimeters, s it’s pssible that this sprtswear culd lead t new running recrds.
Ultimately, while muscle limitatins exist, innvative techniques and advancements in sprtswear cntinue t redefine athletic ptential, suggesting that recrds, even seemingly unbeatable nes, may yet be defeated.
8. Hw des the writer intrduce the tpic?
A. By listing different sprts events directly.
B. By raising questins n athletes’ cncerns.
C. By emphasizing the efficiency f muscle mass.
D. By analyzing the limits f athletic perfrmance.
9. What can be learned abut the muscle fibre types accrding t paragraph 3?
A. Fast-twitch fibers are ideal fr Marathn runners.
B. The muscle fibre type nly has a small impact n perfrmance.
C. Slw-twitch fibers are mre pwerful and tire us mre quickly.
D. Sprinters pssess mre fast-twitch fibers than marathn runners.
10. Why des the authr mentin the “Fsbury Flp”?
A. T praise Stnes’ breaking the wrld recrd.
B. T reveal limitatins in high-jump.
C. T prve the rle f creative techniques.
D. T illustrate the physical peak in athletes.
11. What des the text mainly tell us?
A. Only specific sprts can see new recrds.
B. Muscle mass guarantees athletic perfrmance.
C. Muscle limitatins make new recrds impssible.
D. Recrds may be brken with innvatin and technlgy.

Many schlars agree that a meaningful existence cmes dwn t three factrs: the cherence f ne’s life, the pssessin f clear lng-term gals and the belief that ne’s life matters. But we believe there is anther element t cnsider.
Imagine the first butterfly yu stp t admire after a lng winter r the scenery atp a hill after a fresh hike. Smetimes existence delivers us small mments f beauty. When peple are pen t appreciating such experiences, these mments may further imprve hw they view their life. We call this element experiential appreciatin, an ability t detect and admire life’s inner beauty as events happen.
T better understand this appreciatin, we cnducted a series f studies invlving ver 3,000 participants. Initially, we had participants rate their cping strategies t ease their stress. Thse managing stress by fcusing n their appreciatin fr life’s beauty reprted experiencing life as highly meaningful. In the fllw-ups, we asked them t rate the degree t which they agreed with varius statements, such as “I have a great appreciatin fr the beauty f life” and ther statements related t cherence, purpse, existential mattering. Our results shwed that the mre peple indicated that they were “appreciating life”, the mre they felt their existence valuable. In the experiment that fllwed, we further explred the phenmenn by asking participants t watch an awe-inspiring vide. They als reprted having a greater sense f experiential appreciatin and meaning in life in these mments, cmpared with thse watching mre neutral vides.
The final results cnfirmed ur riginal thery: appreciating small things can make life feel mre meaningful. But applying that insight can be difficult. Our mdern, fast-paced, prject-riented (任务驱动的) lifestyles fill the day with targets. We are n the g, attempting t make the mst f ur utput. This makes it easy t miss what is happening right nw. Yet life happens in the present mment. We shuld slw dwn, let life surprise us and embrace the significance in the everyday. After all, we live in a wnderful wrld. There is n end t the adventures we can have if nly we seek them with ur eyes pen.
12. Why des the authr mentin the admiratin f a butterfly?
A. T describe a picture.B. T raise a questin.
C. T intrduce a cncept.D. T draw a cnclusin.
13. What is mainly explred in the studies accrding t Paragraph 3?
A. The thery f experiential appreciatin.
B. The analysis f the belief that matters mst.
C. The imprtance f a lng-term gal in life.
D. The life f the participants invlved.
14. What makes it hard fr us t appreciate the present?
A. The lack f pprtunities.
B. Our mdern fast-paced lifestyle.
C. Our fcus n individual feelings.
D. The ignrance f future utcmes.
15. Which f the fllwing will the authr prbably agree with?
A. Find the inner beauty f urselves.
B. Explre the end f a significant life.
C. Fill every day with a great many targets.
D. Appreciate little wnders f everyday life.
