牌，從此走向全新的生活。1988年的卡爾加里冬奧會(huì)上，他表現(xiàn)平平，只得了第10名，可如今他再也不是在大型賽事中舉止失措的無(wú)名小卒了；1991年的世界錦標(biāo)賽上，保羅比賽完后，裁判建議他退出冰壇，“給年輕選手讓位”，如今再也聽不到這樣的建議了。跟蹤報(bào)道1991年冬奧會(huì)選拔賽的記者們?cè)鴨?wèn)他“你來(lái)這兒干什么？”，如今再也不會(huì)有這種別有用心的提問(wèn)了。他再也不是美國(guó)冠軍托德埃爾德雷奇的手下敗將，再也不會(huì)被三度問(wèn)鼎世界冠軍寶座的加拿大運(yùn)動(dòng)員庫(kù)爾特布朗寧甩在身后。現(xiàn)在保羅懷利成了奧運(yùn)英雄。雖然有些人對(duì)他沒(méi)有信心，建議他放棄，可他仍然勇往直前。雖然這個(gè)剛出校門的哈佛畢業(yè)生經(jīng)?；孟?，離開嚴(yán)酷的冰上訓(xùn)練生活會(huì)是怎樣，但依然苦苦堅(jiān)持著；這個(gè)年輕人發(fā)現(xiàn)：不管途中有多少障礙，要經(jīng)歷多少次失敗，目標(biāo)終能實(shí)現(xiàn)，而且他證明了這一點(diǎn)。保羅說(shuō)：“閉幕式上我接受采訪，有個(gè)記者對(duì)我說(shuō)，‘你來(lái)時(shí)不為人知，歸時(shí)卻名揚(yáng)四?！?。我覺(jué)得這話很有意思，因?yàn)槲耶?dāng)時(shí)在法國(guó)，根本不知道美國(guó)電視是怎么報(bào)道這次法國(guó)之旅的。走下飛機(jī)，我才意識(shí)到人們把我當(dāng)成了英雄。他們對(duì)我的看法改變了，因?yàn)槲覀儷@勝了。他們的看法改變了，因?yàn)槲覉?jiān)持不懈并且得了銀牌，雖然沒(méi)什么人看好我?！庇袝r(shí)，保羅也幾乎不看好自己了?！?2年冬奧會(huì)兩個(gè)月前，《今日美國(guó)》對(duì)運(yùn)動(dòng)員們進(jìn)行了一次調(diào)查，問(wèn)道，你經(jīng)?？紤]退役嗎？選項(xiàng)有：‘每年’、‘每月’、‘每周’。”“我寫的是‘每天’，因?yàn)橐獔?jiān)持下去實(shí)在是太難了。但我還是下定決心要堅(jiān)持下去，決不放棄，我要全力拼搏。”1992年在阿爾貝維爾，事情完全改觀了。保羅說(shuō)：“我的經(jīng)歷使人們熱淚盈眶，因?yàn)榻Y(jié)果出人意料。這同時(shí)也改變了我的生活，我看著自己的冰上生涯從此被改寫，變得精彩紛呈。其實(shí)也可能會(huì)是另一種結(jié)局：多年的努力化為烏有，結(jié)果令人大失所望?！笔种心弥?jiǎng)牌，保羅突然進(jìn)入到一個(gè)全新的世界：財(cái)源不斷的簽約、花樣滑冰巡回賽、獨(dú)家采訪、追星族要求簽名。總之，凡是一個(gè)聲名雀起的英雄能得到的一切他都得到了，但保羅認(rèn)為這一頭銜值得稱道的東西遠(yuǎn)不在此。保羅說(shuō)：“無(wú)私的奉獻(xiàn)能造就真正的英雄；用自己的經(jīng)歷和行為激勵(lì)別人上進(jìn)，變得更高尚，也算是一種英雄。我認(rèn)為我沒(méi)有無(wú)私地奉獻(xiàn)，但上帝用我的生活經(jīng)歷去激勵(lì)了別的人。”保羅還說(shuō)，英雄是需要日日維護(hù)的。要達(dá)到完美的地步，滑冰選手需苦練每個(gè)細(xì)小的動(dòng)作，日復(fù)一日不能懈怠，英雄也一樣，應(yīng)該日日奉獻(xiàn)，而不只是在危機(jī)關(guān)頭或者在眾人矚目之時(shí)才有所作為。收藏多年之后，奧運(yùn)獎(jiǎng)牌會(huì)退去它最初的光澤；若是不再關(guān)注別人的需要，英雄也會(huì)失去其知名度。和成千上萬(wàn)的人們一同觀看鹽湖城冬奧會(huì)時(shí)，保羅很清楚，每個(gè)勝利的背后，每次打破記錄的背后，都有無(wú)數(shù)日日?qǐng)?jiān)持不懈英雄的故事，那種永不放棄的英雄故事。Unit 6PB找到平衡順其自然，既解餓又解饞。我從小就胖乎乎的，長(zhǎng)大后也一直超重。因?yàn)槲冶葎e的孩子重，常有人嘲笑我，因此我很害羞，很難為情。我曾經(jīng)節(jié)食過(guò)好幾次，但沒(méi)有一次成功，最后體重反而增加。體重增加的另外一個(gè)因素是我熱愛(ài)烹飪，我特別喜歡做一些油膩、脂肪含量很高的甜點(diǎn)，吃就更不用說(shuō)了。18歲高中畢業(yè)時(shí)，我體重達(dá)到了215磅。我自信全無(wú)，不敢離家去外地的新學(xué)校，就決定不去上大學(xué)，在家呆著。我沒(méi)有改變不健康的飲食習(xí)慣，體重一直上升，我越來(lái)越不開心，可是我沒(méi)有采取任何行動(dòng)，只是衣服尺碼越買越大。我的生活出現(xiàn)轉(zhuǎn)折點(diǎn)是在10年以后。那是我最胖的一段時(shí)間，體重高達(dá)330磅，我在朋友家參加新年除夕聚會(huì)。我看見鏡子里的自己，被看到的情景嚇壞了：我超重，很不健康，要是再不采取任何措施的話，我會(huì)越來(lái)越胖，越來(lái)越不開心的。聚會(huì)后，我回顧以往的屢次減肥，發(fā)現(xiàn)之所以不成功是因?yàn)楣?jié)食需要我放棄我所鐘愛(ài)的食物。這樣我就老想著食物和狂歡，最后干脆完全放棄節(jié)食。要是我順其自然，食物照樣吃，但份量少一點(diǎn)，這樣的話我就可以既解餓又解饞。最大的挑戰(zhàn)在于，如何找到一個(gè)辦法，既能滿足我對(duì)烹飪的熱愛(ài)，又能保持較為健康的生活方式。一開始，我盡量遠(yuǎn)離廚房，壓抑自己不去想吃的。結(jié)果呢，滿腦子里想的全是吃的?？傇撚修k法把烹飪和健康的飲食結(jié)合起來(lái)吧?？戳藥妆镜椭臼匙V之后，我找到了解決辦法。我不斷嘗試，把自己最愛(ài)吃的飯菜加以修改，使其脂肪含量降低但美味依然。體重開始下降。我開始進(jìn)行體育活動(dòng)（心肺功能鍛煉和減肥訓(xùn)練，每周五次）以后，效果更是驚人。我不覺(jué)得苦，我覺(jué)得我該給我的身體應(yīng)有的關(guān)心和注意。接下來(lái)的兩年之內(nèi)，我減了165磅。期間有起有落，有時(shí)也會(huì)停滯不前，可我下定決心堅(jiān)持到底。還有一個(gè)挑戰(zhàn)，就是不要因?yàn)槌粤耸裁床唤】档氖澄锞腿ミ^(guò)分自責(zé)，以為自己放棄了健康的習(xí)慣。相反，我發(fā)誓重新開始，時(shí)刻不忘自己的目標(biāo)。體重下降了，體形好了，我又能坦然面對(duì)自己和我的身體了。我的夢(mèng)想是幫助別人意識(shí)到制作和食用低脂肪食品既簡(jiǎn)便，又好處良多。我已經(jīng)出版了一本介紹低脂肪食譜的書，主持了很多關(guān)于健康飲食的討論會(huì)。我既然已經(jīng)知道，我下定決心就能達(dá)到目的，我的夢(mèng)想已不再遙不可及。我終于找回了自我。鍛煉時(shí)間安排跑步、爬樓梯、踏板健身操或者跆拳道：每周5次，每次60分鐘 減肥訓(xùn)練：每周3次，每次30分鐘保持成果小建議運(yùn)動(dòng)第一。鍛煉后，飲食習(xí)慣往往更加健康。減肥并不用強(qiáng)迫自己不吃喜歡的食物。你可以照吃不誤，少吃一點(diǎn)就行。犯了小錯(cuò)可不用過(guò)分自責(zé)。盡快回到正常的運(yùn)動(dòng)和飲食方案上來(lái)，原諒自己。最近你注重健康了嗎？Unit 1 Passage A
