Now satellites are helping to forecast（预报）the weather.　 They are in space, and they can reach any part of the world.　 The satellites take pictures of the atmosphere（大气）, because this is where the weather forms（形成）.　 They send these pictures to the weather stations.　 So meteorologists（气象学家）can see the weather of any part of the world.　 From the pictures, the scientists can often say how the weather will change.　　 Today, nearly five hundred weather stations in sixty countries receive satellite pictures.　 When they receive new pictures, the meteorologists compare（比较）them with earlier ones.　 Perhaps they may find that the clouds have changed during the last few hours.　 This may mean that the weather on the ground may soon change, too.　 In their next weather forecast, the meteorologists can say this.

So the weather satellites are a great help to the meteorologists.　 Before satellites were invented, the scientists could forecast the weather for about 24 or 48 hours.　 Now they can make good forecasts for three or five days.　 Soon, perhaps, they may be able to forecast the weather for a week or more ahead（提前）.

The marathon(马拉松) in my town usually takes place in hot weather. My job was to follow the runners to help those who needed medical help. “We should stay behind the last runner, so take it slowly,” I said to the driver, Doug.

As it began, the front runners started to disappear(消失). Then I noticed a woman in blue running shorts and a white T-shirt. “ Doug, look!” We knew we were watching our “last runner”. Her feet turned in , yet her left knee turned out. Her legs were so crippled(畸形的) that it seemed impossible for her to be able to walk. How could she run a marathon？

We watched in silence as she slowly moved forward. We would move forward a little bit, then stop and wait for her. Then we would slowly move forward a little bit more. As I watched her try to put one foot in front of the other, I found myself breathing for her. I wanted her to stop, and at the same time, I hoped that she wouldn’t. Finally, she was the only runner left in sight. When the finishing line came into sight, we found the cheering people had all gone home. She slowly crossed through the line and lifted her hands, full of happiness.

I do not know the woman’s name, but since that day she has become a part of my life. For her, it was about finishing what she had set out to do, no matter what. When I think things are too difficult and want to say “I just can’t do it”, I think of the last runner. Then I realize how easy the task before me really is.

1.When does the marathon usually take place in the writer’s town？

2.The last runner had problems with her________.

3.Why did the woman take part in the marathon?
