But by the time he won Sweden a gold medal in the 2004 Olympics, he had honed himself into the perfect projectile. It was the result of a 15-year obsession: his whole life had been pulled into alignment with this goal. If he wanted to stop on page 225 of a book, he would push himself to page 240, in order to train his mind to overshoot. “It’s all about your 10,000”. There had been jumpers who had beaten him when he was young, and where were they now? �知识点hone v. /hoʊn/ to develop and improve sth, especially a skill, over a period of time磨练,训练(尤指技艺) • His body was honed to perfection.他的⾝体锻炼得⼗全⼗美。 • She honed her debating skills at college.她在⼤学时便练就了辩论技巧。 • It was a finely honed piece of writing.那是⼀篇经过仔细推敲写成的⽂章。 获取外刊的完整原文以及精讲笔记,请关注微信公众号「早安英文」,回复“外刊”即可。更多有意思的英语干货等着你!

阅读原文: �标题 Kamala Harris lacks charisma and time But, if nominated, that does not rule out her defeating Donald Trump 正文There are, broadly, two ways to become the presidential nominee of one of America’s two major political parties. One is to rise up as an insider, brushing past rivals while taking advantage of a family name, a long run in Congress or the mentorship of powerful elders. Think of the two Bush presidents and Joe Biden. The other way is to win as an outsider, through charisma and chutzpah. Barack Obama and Donald Trump did that. Kamala Harris, the clear front-runner to become the Democratic nominee following Mr Biden’s decision to withdraw from the 2024 presidential race, belongs emphatically to the first camp. �知识点 rise up If someone rises up to a higher position or status, they become more important, successful, or powerful.
