Most of the people taking part were doing a onemile race, and 10 races were planned over the weekend. There seemed to be a mix of openwater enthusiasts alongside plete beginners—which is precisely the aim of the swims, to get as many people as possible pleting their own challenge. The oldest woman peting was 77, taking part in the twomile race, alongside a man who last year had swum in every onemile race. I had chosen the third onemile race of the day. There were over 600 people in my race. We were taken through an acclimatization area a children39。s paddling poolsized part of the lake where we moved in to feel how cold the water was. Not too bad was everyone39。s thought! Then we headed out towards the middle of the lake. We39。d been warned that the first 100 metres would be really rough. However, somewhere near the 750m mark I was still waiting for the calm。 it felt more like swimming in the sea than a lake. I tried to focus on my breathing and technique, and just keep going. As I approached the 400mtogo mark my lower right leg became painful. I recalled overhearing people talking about how they kept swimming through the pain, so I tried. But it didn39。t work. I began to feel the entire leg tight and painful. I didn39。t want to stop, so I bent my right knee and just kicked with the left leg. Finally I saw the finishing post, and I just concentrated on getting there—still onelegged. My finishing time was 38 minutes 25 seconds but that didn39。t matter—the atmosphere was fantastic and everyone felt a sense of achievement, whatever their time. I39。m hooked, and want to give it another go. I39。ve already signed up for my next openwater swim.（1）How did the author feel before the race?

When you are a child, every scent, every sound, every move, every toy, the first day of school, the first kiss, the first step… Everything together makes what is the personality of a man. All these are pieces of one whole entity. I was about 6 years old. My mom39。s best friend left to another town and asked my mom to stay at her place with me for two days in order to look after her two sons. One was a little older than I was, and the second boy appeared to be super grownup, for he was already fourteen. I always enjoyed staying at their place. I remember the second day we were supposed to have the eback party for my mom39。s friend at her place. I woke up. Mom went to work and reminded me to be nice and clean by the time she came back. I stayed with Tony, the older of the boys and suddenly somebody called him and though he was not permitted to leave me alonehe left. He said it would not be long. But it took him forever. I realized that I was alone. I could not e out of the house, so I opened the window. I was so desperate. So lonely. So betrayed. At that moment I pulled the curtain so strongly that I fell on the floor. And there I was standingone little criminaldesperate to escape and knowing that I would be punished for destroying the curtain that was not even ours.But then something changed. I stopped weeping. I looked around and realized that I was in a safe place, and that mom would e back and kiss me no matter what I had done. This was a moment of pure happiness, not the happiness of getting a new toy or a dog, or going to the party of your best friend. It was the moment of clarity for methe first time in my life when I realized that I was happy to have my mom and that I was safe. My eyes saw the world in different shades that moment. And by the wayI was not punished for the curtain. I fell asleep on my mom39。s knees.（1）What is the best title for this passage?
