In my second year of high school, the class was scheduled to run the mile．
When the coach yelled, "Ready．Set．Go!", I rushed out like an airplane, faster than anyone else for the first 20 feet．I made up my mind to finish first．As we came around the first of four laps, there were students all over the track （跑道）．By the end of the second lap, many of the students had already stopped．They had given up and were on the ground breathing heavily．As I started the third lap, only a few of my classmates were on the track．By the time I hit the fourth lap, I was alone．Then it hit me that nobody had given up．Instead, everyone had already finished．As I ran that last lap, I cried．And 12 minutes, 42 seconds after starting, I crossed the finishing line．I fell to the ground．I was very upset．
Suddenly my coach ran up to me and picked me up, yelling, "You did it．Mark! You finished, son．You finished" He looked at me straight in the eyes, waving a piece of paper in his hand．It was my goal （目标 ） for the day which I had forgotten．I had given it to him before class． He read it aloud to everyone．It simply said, "I, Mark Brown, will finish the mile run tomorrow, come what may．" My heart lifted．My tears went away, and I had a smile on my face as if I had eaten a banana．My classmates clapped．It was then I realized winning isn't always finishing first．Sometimes winning is just finishing．We can learn from the passage that _ ．

Air pollution is a big problem for cities in most countries． Many people are dying from it． But how can we tell the air quality is good or bad？
On a tree next to a river in Amsterdam， a tiny birdhouse glows （发光） bright green when the air is clean． If you're standing nearby， the birdhouse will also give you a free Wi﹣Fi connection﹣but only if pollution level is low enough． The designer is Joris Lam． His birdhouse tells you about the air quality．
Joris' birdhouse is called TreeWifi． It can be put on a tree around your house to test the air quality． People can see a screen with information about the local air quality and how to improve it． TreeWifi is a simple way for people to know about the air pollution around them． If the birdhouse does not glow， people should care more about the environment． It reminds them to change their lifestyles． For example， to protect the air， they can ride bikes or just walk instead of driving cars．
"Imagine if trees gave free Wi﹣Fi， people would plant more trees like crazy． It's a pity that they only give us the oxygen（氧气） we breathe，" Joris said．
The birdhouse doesn't work as a home for birds now． Joris and his team are trying to make some changes to it． In the future， they hope birds will live in the birdhouse and the heat of its green light will be used to keep birds warm in winter．
