How long can a person live?How tall can a human being grow?The Guinness（吉尼斯）World Records book lists many of the greatest records1.the greatest potentials（潛能）.But it's a fossil record.It speaks only to what has been done,not how much can2.(do),which is why it has to be constantly updated（更新）.

Take the3.(surprise )case of the British middle-distance runner Roger Bannister for example.In the 1950s, experts said4.the human body could not run a mile in less than four minutes.Then Bannister came along in 1954 and proved it could5.act be run in 3:59.4.Once Bannister broke the imaginary barrier,6.(sudden )the floodgates opened;scores of runners started besting（擊�。﹖he four-minute mark every year,each one7.(fast) than the last. How fast does a human have the ability8.(run)the mile today?We honestly don't know.That is why we hold our 9.(breathe )during every Olympics.

All we know10.(be)that this kind of change is possible.Keep this in mind the next time you feel stuck or challenged.Just because it hasn't been done before doesn't mean it's impossible.
