Passage One

听力原文

    (9) Most successful people are unorthodox persons whose minds wander outside traditional ways of thinking. Instead of trying to refine old formulas, they invent new ones. When Jean-Claude Killy made the French national ski team in the early 1960s, he was prepared to work harder than anyone else to be the best. At the crack of dawn, he would run up the slopes with his skis on—an unbelievably backbreaking activity. In the evening, he would do weightlifting and running, but the other team members were working as hard and long as he was.

    He realized instinctively that simply training harder would never be enough. Killy then began challenging the basic theories of racing technique. Each week, he would try something different to see if he could find a better, faster way down the mountain. (10) His experiments resulted in a new style that was almost exactly opposite the accepted technique of the time. It involved skiing with his legs apart for better balance, and sitting back on the skis when he came to a turn. He also used ski poles in an unorthodox way to propel himself as he skied.

    The explosive new style helped cut Killy’s racing time dramatically. In 1966 and 1967, he captured virtually every major skiing trophy. (11) The next year, he won three gold medals in the Winter Olympics, a record in ski racing that has never been topped. Killy learned an important secret shared by many creative people: innovations don’t require genius, just a willingness to question the way things have always been done.

10. What does the speaker say about Killy’s experiments?

解析:B。录音中间提到,基利的实验产生了与当时公认的滑雪技术几乎背道而驰的新的滑雪动作。B选项的a brand new style与录音中a new style对应,再根据上下文可知,style指代skiing technique,因此B项正确。
