myself.
Shrtly after crssing the start line, my she laces(鞋带) became untied. S I stpped t readjust. Nt the start I wanted!
At mile 3, I passed a sign: ＂GO FOR IT, RUNNERS!＂
By mile 17, I became ut f breath and the nce injured ankle hurt badly. Despite the pain, I stayed the curse walking a bit and then running again.

There are an extremely large number f ants wrldwide. Each individual (个体的) ant hardly weigh anything, but put tgether they weigh rughly the
same as all f mankind. They als live nearly everywhere, except n frzen muntain tps and arund the ples.Fr animals their size, ants have been
astnishingly successful, largely due t their wnderful scial behavir.
In clnies (群体) that range in size frm a few hundred t tens f millins, they rganize their lives with a clear divisin f labr. Even mre amazing is
hw they achieve this level f rganizatin. Where we use sund and sight t cmmunicate, ants depend primarily n phermne (外激素), chemicals
sent ut by individuals and smelled r tasted by fellw members f their clny. When an ant finds fd, it prduces a phermne that will lead thers
straight t where the fd is. When an individual ant cmes under attack r is dying, it sends ut an alarm phermne t warn the clny t prepare fr
a cnflict as a defense unit.
In fact, when it cmes t the art f war, ants have n equal. They are cmpletely fearless and will readily take n a creature much larger than themselves,
attacking in large grups and vercming their target. Such is their devtin t the cmmn gd f the clny that nt nly sldier ants but als
wrker ants will sacrifice their lives t help defeat an enemy.
Behaving in this selfless and devted manner, these little creatures have survived n Earth, fr mre than 140 millin years, far lnger than dinsaurs.
Because they think as ne, they have a cllective (集体的) intelligence greater than yu wuld expect frm its individual parts.

C．mre successful than all ther animals
D．t many t achieve any level f rganizatin
【小题2】Ants can use phermnes fr______.
A．escape
B．cmmunicatin

C．warning enemies
D．arranging labr
【小题3】What des the underlined expressin "take n" in Paragraph 3 mean?

B．Emply.
D．Fight against.

sentence. 【小题1】 It wn’t be easy, but it is pssible t cheer up after leaving a bad first impressin. Or yu can even turn it int a gd ne.

Hnestly admitting the mistake and aplgizing fr it are the best chice. Yu can aplgize in a frmal language like, “I am srry, but I didn’t

What’s the mst imprtant is that yu learn frm yur mistakes and avid making them again. And make sure yu wn’t behave in a similar
