D. Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题): ( 共12分)

Have you ever heard the story of the four-minute mile? Many years ago, people believed that it was impossible for a human being to run a mile in less than four minutes until Roger Banister proved it wrong in 1954.

What happens if you put an animal in a pond? Any animal, big or small, will swim its way through. What happens when someone, who does not know how to swim, falls in deep waters? They drown. If an animal who hasn’t learned swimming could escape by swimming, why not you? Because you believe you will drown while the animal does not.

Have you ever wondered why the letters are organized in a particular order on your keyboard? You might have thought it is to increase the typing speed. Most people never question it. But the fact is that this system was developed to reduce the typing speed at a time when typewriter parts would jam if the operator typed too fast.

These three cases show the power of our beliefs(信念). There is no other more powerful directing force in human behavior than belief. Your beliefs have the power to create and to destroy. A belief delivers a direct command to your nervous system.

I used a snake to show my students in India how unrealistic some of their beliefs are. They thought snakes were slippery, slimy( 粘糊糊的) and poisonous. After doing an exercise for changing beliefs, they handled my snake and found it to be dry and clean. They also remembered that only three types of poisonous snakes exist in India.

Did this story end the way you thought? Review your beliefs now and find out which ones you need to change.

One day, when three men walked into the Thirteenth Street Station, they were told the three o’clock train to New York was going to leave an hour later that day. Then, they went to a bar to wait. About an hour later, they returned to the station laughing and talking. When they arrived at the platform, they saw the train was already moving slowly out of the station.

All three men ran after the train shouting, “Wait! Wait! Come back!” Two of them caught up with the moving train. By this time, the third man had stopped running. As he hopelessly watched the train pull out of the station, he could still see his friends wave and hear them call. At first he had a confused look on his face. Then after a short moment, he laughed.

A man standing nearby asked, “What’s so funny? After all, your two friends made it and you didn’t.”

The man was still laughing so hard that he had tears in his eyes as he replied, “You don’t understand. Those two friends came to see me off.”
