IT WAS AT THIS SHOP WHERE I BOUGHT A T-SHIRT YESTERDAY...

25. It was at this shop where I bought a T-shirt yesterday A B C D III. Read the passage and then answer the questions below. I’m interested in sports, especially athletics, and I run seven or eight kilometers every day. I particularly enjoy cross country running, where you have to run across fields, jump over streams and so on. While I’m running I think about all sorts of things, and at the end of a run I’m sometimes surprised to find that I’ve managed to solve a problem that was on my mind.

Next year, I’m going to try the London Marathon. It’s hard race 26 miles, or 42 kilometers-and you have to

be tough to finish, but I very much want to do it. I worry a bit about getting too old, and I’d like to prove to myself

that I’m still almost as fit as I was twenty years old.

I’m interested in mountaineering as well as running. I’ll never become an expert climber, but I know what

I’m doing in the mountains. I successfully completed a course in snow and ice climbing when I was younger; and

I’ve done a series of easy climbs in the Alps during the last few years. My wife doesn’t share my interest in

mountains. She agreed to go climbing with me once, but she found that she felt ill as soon as she got above 1,000

meters.
