1、  The annual marathon in my town usually occured during a heat wave .My job was to  36  behind the runners in an ambulance  37  any of them ended medical attention. The driver and I were in an air ----conditioned ambulance behind approximately one hundred athletes  38  to hear the sharp crack of the starting gun.
  "We're supposed to stay behind the  39  runner, so take it slowly, "I said to the driver, Doug, as we began to creep forward.
  " Let's  40  hope all the runners are fast ! "he laughed.
  As they began to pace themselves, the front runners started to  41  . It was then that my  42  were drawn to the woman in blue silk running shorts and a baggy white T ----shirt.
  "Koug, look !"
  We knew we were already watching our "last runner". Her feet were turned in, yet her left knee was turned out. Her legs were so crippled and  43  that it seemed impossible for her to be able to walk, let alone run a marathon.
  Doug and I watched in  44  as she slowly moved forward. We didn't say a thing. We would move forward a little bit, then stop and wait for her to  45  some distance. Then we'd slowly move forward a little bit more.
  Finally, she was the  46  runner left in sight. Tears streamed down my face as I sat on the edge of my seat and watched with awe, amazement and even reverence（敬意）as she  47 forward with sheer determination through the last miles.
  When the  48 line came into sight, trash（垃圾）lay everywhere and the  49  crowds had long gone home.  50  , standing straight and ever so proud waited a man. He was  51  one end of a ribbon of crepe paper tied to a post.  52  slowly crossed through, leaving both ends of the paper fluttering behind her.
  I do not  53  this woman's name, but that day she became a part of my life ----a part I often depend on. For her, it wasn't about  54  the other runners or winning a trophy（奖品）, it was about finishing what she had set out to do, no matter  55  . When I think things are too difficult or too time ----consuming, I get those "I ----just ----can't ----do ----it", I think of the last runner. Then I realize how easy the task before me really is.
