§1. The triathlon promises to be one of the most popular Olympic sports. Recently it has drawn huge crowds fascinated (and horrified) by athletes swimming 1500 m, cycling 40 km, then running 10 km without stopping. Great for those watching, maybe, but what makes the triathletes want to punish their bodies so much? And what makes an attractive 17-year-old, with excellent academic results, give up everything for the doubtful pleasures it offers?
§2. Melanie Sears has not yet learnt those often-repeated phrases about personal satisfaction, mental challenge and higher targets that most athletes automatically use when asked similar questions. 'You swim for 1500 m, then run out of the water and jump on your bike, still wet. Of course, then you freeze. When the 40 km cycle ride is over, you have to run 10 km, which is a long way when you're feeling exhausted. But it's great fun, and all worth it in the end,' she says.
§3. Melanie entered her first triathlon at 14. 'I won the junior section — but then I was the only junior taking part. It seemed so easy that I was waving at my team-mates as I went round.' Full of confidence, she entered the National Championships, and although she had the second fastest swim and the fastest run, she came nowhere. 'I was following this man and suddenly we came to the sea. We realised then that we had gone wrong. I ended up cycling 20 kilometres too far. I cried all the way through the running.'
§4. But she did not give up and is determined that she never will. 'Sometimes I wish I could stop, because then the pain would be over, but I am afraid that if I let myself stop just once, I would be tempted to do it again.' Such doggedness draws admiration from Steve Trew, the sport's director of coaching. 'I've just been testing her fitness,' he says, 'and she worked so hard on the running machine that it finally threw her off and into a wall. She had given it everything, but whereas most people step off when they realise they can't go any further, she just kept on.'
§5. Melanie was top junior in this year's European Triathlon Championships, finishing 13th. 'I was almost as good as the top three in swimming and running, but much slower at cycling. That's why I'm working very hard at it.' She is trying to talk her long-suffering parents, who will carry the £1,300 cost of her trip to New Zealand for this year's World Championships, into buying a £2,000 bike ('It's a special deal, with £1,000 off) so she can try national 25 km and 100 km races later this year.
§6. But there is another price to pay. Her punishing training sessions have made her a bit of a recluse. 'I don't have a social life,' she says. 'I'm not a party animal anyway. After two hours' hard swimming on Friday nights, I just want to go to sleep. But I phone and write to the other girls in the team.' What does she talk about? Boys? Clothes? 'No, what sort of times they are achieving.'
§7. Where will all this single-mindedness end? Melanie has tried other events. She has had a go at the triathlon 'sprint', for example, where you only have to swim 750 m, cycle 20 km and run 5 km. She wants to enter even tougher events than the triathlon.
А38. How does Melanie differ from other athletes, according to the writer?
A39. What upset Melanie during the National Championships?
A40. What is Melanie trying to persuade her parents to do?
A41. What does Melanie say about her relationships with her teammates?

Encyclopedia A: When the Encyclopedia of Science Fiction was first published in 1979, it was predicted that it would quickly become the ideal companion for all fans of Science Fiction. The Encyclopedia has now been updated and widely expanded and is sure to be as highly praised as the first edition. It has 4,300 entries that cover such topics as game worlds, shared worlds, robotics films and television series, techno-thrillers, survival fiction and the most recent science fiction novels. It contains reviews and excellent cross-referencing, and overall it is very entertaining. This large volume is rather expensive, but it will give hours and hours of pleasure.

Encyclopedia D: This new Cambridge Encyclopedia of Human Evolution is a large, very expensive volume, written by scholars and aimed at the academic market. It is a wide-ranging reference book and will be valuable to anyone interested in the place the human species occupies in evolution. The Encyclopedia is illustrated with a great many photographs, diagrams, maps and ready reference tables. Although it has been produced mainly for scholars, its style is attractive to the non-specialist.
Encyclopedia E: If you are already lucky enough to be the owner of the Guinness Encyclopedia, you will find the design and style of these new Science Encyclopedias very familiar.
