How to Be a Winner Sir Steven Redgrave
   Winner of 5 Olympic Gold Medals
   "In 1997 I was found to have developed diabetes（糖尿?。?Believing my career was over，I felt extremely low.Then one of the specialists said there was no reason why I should stop training and competing.That was the encouragement I needed.I could still be a winner if I believed in myself.I am not saying that it isn't difficult sometimes.But I wanted to prove to myself that I wasn't finished yet.Nothing is to stand in my way."
   Karen Pickering
   Swimming World Champion
   "I swim 4 hours a day，6 days a week.I manage that sort of workload by putting it on top of my diary.This is the key to success —you can't follow a career in any field without being well-organized.List what you believe you can achieve.Trust yourself，write down your goals for the day，however small they are，and you'll be a step closer to achieving them."
   Kirsten Best
   Poet & Writer
   "When things are getting hard，a voice inside my head tells me that I can't achieve something.Then there are other distractions，such as family or hobbies.The key is to concentrate.When I feel tense，it helps a lot to repeat words such as 'calm'，'peace' or 'focus'，either out loud or silently in my mind.It makes me feel more in control and increases my confidence.This is a habit that can become second nature quite easily and is a powerful psychological（心理的）tool."

1．"The world's loneliest elephant" Kaavan，has reached Cambodia --- on a flight of over 4，000km from Pakistan - and will spend his days at the Cambodia Wildlife Sanctuary in the country's northwest.
   Animal experts began the task of airlifting Kaavan on November 29.His departure from Pakistan marks the end of a campaign led by local activists and American singer and actress Cher，who has been campaigning for the elephant's freedom since 2016.She is the co-founder of the NGO Free The Wild，which has played an important role in Kaavan's relocation.Earlier in October，a veterinarian（獸醫(yī)）from Four Paws，Dr Amir Khalil，took the responsibility of moving Kaavan，whose rescue has been described as "the heaviest one" the organisation has undertaken.Cher tweeted to thank Pakistan's prime minister for making the rescue possible.
   A special crate （板條箱）was especially built for the elephant，who weighs more than five tons and is more than three metres high.Kaavan was also trained by an elephant expert for several weeks to make sure that he could enter the crate safely.On the journey，Kaavan was accompanied by wildlife veterinarians and over 200 kg of food.Kaavan is also Pakistan's last Asian elephant and with his departure，the zoo where he was housed for over three decades may close soon，because many animals have been reported missing or dead in recent years.The zoo has repeatedly made headlines for its increasingly awful conditions.
   According to the animal welfare organisation Four Paws，Kaavan came to the Pakistan zoo 35 years ago and shared his room with Saheli.After his "only companion" Saheli died in 2012，Kaavan was reported to be listless and even started showing signs of mental illness.
   Luckily，Kaavan has found his relocation.Cambodian deputy environment minister Neth Pheaktra said，"Our zoo is pleased to welcome Kaavan.No longer will he be the world's loneliest elephant.We expect to breed Kaavan with local elephants.This is an effort to save the gene."

A．Because Cambodia had more experienced experts.
B．Because his living conditions went from bad to worse.
